https://pkcantexplain.blogspot.com/2015/08/bob-dylans-highway-61-revisited-2006.html
Sunday, August 09, 2015. Bob Dylan's Highway 61 Revisited (2006). Another way to explore the 33⅓ series, perhaps the most common: read the ones on favorite albums. Highway 61 Revisited. No one can explain this album, Highway 61 Revisited. 8212;it's what I find so entertaining about Marcus's attempts. Polizzotti's book is definitely worth a look for the hardcore. In case it's not at the library. Posted by Jeff Pike. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Bob Dylans Highway 61 Revisited (2006). Man From Porlo...

Can't Explain: Kwaidan (1964)
https://pkcantexplain.blogspot.com/2015/04/kwaidan-1964.html
Friday, April 17, 2015. Japan, 161 minutes. Writers: Yoko Mizuki, Lafcadio Hearn. Cast: Rentaro Mikuni, Michiyo Aratama, Tatsuya Nakadai, Keiko Kishi, Katsuo Nakamura, Osamu Takizawa, Ganjiro Nakamura, Noboru Nakaya. Was released very late in 1964 (December 29, thus barely skating in on the criteria of my ongoing Movie of the Year project. Was finally being put in the ground for good—makes me think it might have had some influence on a later Serling project for TV, Night Gallery. Which feels across its s...

https://pkcantexplain.blogspot.com/2015/07/advertisements-for-myself-1959.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. Advertisements for Myself (1959). At the age of 25, is glimpsed 10 years on as a pitiful addict for human attention, very nearly a geek pure working up to biting the head off a small animal, sitting in his squalor and sculpting his own shit, seeking and rejecting approval more fiercely than ever. Advertisements. And The Deer Park. Which I've never managed to get through) before drifting into the crisis that is the prodigious wellspring of Advertisements. Posted by Jeff Pike. 12 Yea...
