    These are Fuuvi Bees. They’re super tiny and adorable cameras that are meant to mimic 8mm (!) film. They’re 80 dollars.
This is a video Fuuvi made of what it looks like to film with one of these bad boys.

    Bottle Rocket tonight at 7, 9, and 11. Owen and Luke Wilson steal stuff and go on the lam all the while sporting quintessential 90’s hair. Sounds like a recipe for success to me.

    My discovery of Tarkovsky’s first film was like a miracle. Suddenly I found myself standing at the door of a room, the key to which, until then, had never been given to me. It was a room I had always wanted to enter and where he was moving freely and fully at ease. I felt encouraged and stimulated: someone was expressing what I had always wanted to say without knowing how. Tarkovsky is for me the greatest, the one who invented a new language, true to the nature of film, as it captures life as a reflection, life as a dream.

    — Ingmar Bergman, on Andrei Tarkovsky.
