13 most beautiful...
Watch this:
i just saw 13 Most Beautiful: Songs for Andy Warhol's Screentests tonight and it was gorgeous. it was sad, it was poignant, it was beautiful. it's really simple, you watch 13 of warhol's screentests as dean and britta (fomerly of Luna) play songs to go along with each one. i can't seem to wrap my mind around how well each song went with each screentest. all were able to evoke their own distinct feeling.
i've never questioned the role that music plays in creating emotion, but i've also never seen such a blatant manifestation of it either. i know that i wouldn't have felt the same was about footage of nico or dennis hopper or edie sedgewick just staring into the camera had it not been for the music.
it comes out next month, i think i'm going to buy it and have a viewing party.
