Think of what past Survivor players would have done with that moment: "Sierra just basically told me to vote her off - how dumb is that (maniacal laughter ensues)?"

Rouch and Morin's "Chronicle of a Summer" started a fascinating cycle of documentaries involving impromptu street interviews and candid footage of Parisian life. They were made possible by newer, more portable cameras and synced sound recorders. Rouch coined the term "cinema verite" during the making of the film.

The aardvark shows up again late in the Ts - tubulindentata. It's an interesting character, but hardly central to the meandering plot.

I went to an amusement in the Netherlands in 1974 and they had mutoscopes, a cheaper version of the nickelodeon. These were invented by Dickson and used flip cards instead of film. The machines were old, so I was able to stop it on the frame when the African lady stood up in the river, which would have shown her…

Speaking of which, the AV Club needs to interview Matt Furie. Artists often speak of their creations as their children. This is hard for him, and he needs a chance to vent.

They drank Kool-Aid.

"Tally-Ho, bedswerver!"

1) The Theme from Mission: Impossible (the original, in 5/4 time).

Gimme "Matty Groves." Tam Lin gets turned into a dream, but Matty and Lord Donald's wife get ripped apart.

"Which Way You Going, Billy?" and "That's Where I Went Wrong" are nice little weepers.

But it is a 60s song. Bonus points for inspiring Dylan's "Clothesline Saga."

The mythical river of Styx.

My introduction to the concept was with the movie "Silver Streak." Young Archie was really liking Jill Clayburgh and what she was doing, until it got rudely interrupted.

Maybe I read too much between the lines, but my impression, when reading the Wikipedia entry, watching the video of her singing at around age 50 (linked in my comment above), knowing she helped with The Girl in the Red Velvet Swing, that she came out OK. She was a victim of poverty, rape and sexual abuse, public…

It's just as well. "The World According to Garp" owns the fatal-car-crash-slash-blowjob story line.

You must be talking about the following YouTube clip. It looks like raw footage from a promo film for Bill Somebody's Revue, and introduced two minutes in.
