Halfway through a rewatch of LES ENFANTS DU PARADIS. Went to Halliwell to see what he'd find to bitch about. 'Flawed only by its lack of human warmth and of a real theme'. Joyless bastard. #Filmsky

Glad to see people posting suggestions for the #1952Club that's coming up in a week and a bit, especially as no one's mentioned any of the ones I've got on the go, heheheh... Join us!

I love this by Salvador Dali (1959). I love seeing work by artists that is different from what they are famous for.
