RopeofSilicon: Latest Headlines (Free subscription) | 1 hour ago
Jeff Wells at Hollywood Elsewhere pointed out Nike's latest Nike Football "Leave Nothing" commercial, this year directed by David Fincher and shot by Emmanuel Lubezki ( Ali , The New World , Children of Men ). The spaghetti western motiff is pretty cool and it got me thinking back to last year's equally cool (if not cooler) commercial shot by Michael Mann with his frequent DP partner Dante Spinotti...

AN excellent album full of richly textured, thoughtful and life enhancing, though sometimes a tad miserable tracks from one of the world’s finest singer songwriters. Aimee Mann has something of the range of Joni Mitchell and an edge like Chrissie Hynde, though there is something else to her music, something original and quite off centre that makes it utterly compelling.

But those people have probably never seen me spend any length of time at a Liz Phair performance! :-) The first...
