“I don’t want to die and leave a few sad songs and a hump in the ground as my only monument.
I want to leave a world that is liberated from trash, pollution, racism, bigotry, parochialism,
a thousand different brands of untruth and licentious usorious economics.” – George Jackson, 1970

Performance
October 25th, 2009

perf-1Performance, masterminded by Donald Cammell and starring Mick Jagger, James Fox and Anita Pallenberg in a heady psychosexual brew of mixed identities, narcotics, sex, sadism, gangsters and reclusive rock stars. The film was infamous not just for its risque content, but for the intense psychic drama that the cast weathered. Some left the film with drug habits and psychological scars, while some, like Mick Jagger, emerged mostly unscathed. Marianne Faithfull: “In the same way that some actors get to keep their wardrobe, Mick came away from Performance with his character. This persona was so perfectly tailored to his needs that he’d never have to take it off again.”

Le Minor
October 7th, 2009

P1020410Founded in Bretagne, France in 1936, Le Minor produces Basque shirts in a variety of colours every season very much like Saint James or Orcival. Tightly knitted with heavy duty cotton, they were favoured by the French Navy and Fishermen back then for it’s comfort, durability and wind resistance. Like denim, these shirts get better with repeated use. The patch worked stripe ones I received looks good and adds a very interesting twist to the classic Basque shirt style. (Thanks R.T!)

On a side note, we would also like to welcome Mr. Tyler Askew to our list of contributors.

On the topic of Bruce’s retrievers, his film, A Letter to True released sometime back in 2004 offers a glimpse into the world of his retrievers and life. More serious undertones are also present like aiding Haitian refugees and how the September 11 attacks affected him as well as other sub-themes. This film does get a love/hate reaction from people sometimes.

Trailer for A Letter to True. Beautiful.
