Quote from: M.10rda on August 30, 2026, 06:47:47 PMI know lots of people who would furiously contest that Pollock's painting is Art. What is Art???

one answer would be 'art is what somebody who is agreed to be an artist calls art'. That is what Marcel Duchamp was trying to lampoon with his urinal. 'society reveres me as an artist, therefore if I put my name on an urinal and put it in gallery, it becomes art eo ipso'

It's not to say that Pollock is good or bad, but it's PAINTING.

ISLAND OF LOST WOMEN is a title and synopsis that sounds like it could be at home in the "Is It Porn?" thread. Given the often banal premises of so many adult films from the late 60s through today, I can't imagine why no one would remake this IP!  :teddyr:

Tonight's Stinker
Island of Lost Women(1959)
https://youtu.be/3Co0FNXARLU?si=wYhoPPWzOiT7sGqB

A reporter & his pilot realize their lost, one of the engines on their plane konks out, & the radio dies, when they see a small island in the middle of the ocean..,.. A loud voice tells them not to land, but they have no other options...
As soon as they land, a scientist comes out to greet them & asks them to leave, but his three teenage daughters come out of the jungle, having never seen a man before....
It turns out, the scientist helped build the atomic bomb, and is convinced the world is on a path to self destruction.... But the reporter has the story of a lifetime, which presents a dangerous problem....
Meanwhile, three smitten teenage girls presents it's own problem....

Short, not too much wasted time, & the scientist has an answer for pretty much every question the viewer may have, with plenty of fluffy drama between the women & the men....

Quote from: M.10rda on August 30, 2026, 10:32:41 AMThe creepy (and oddly designed) house from LOST HIGHWAY that Bill Pullman lives in was apparently David Lynch's real home. If I was Mrs. Lynch (maybe Mary Sweeney at the time?) I'd be nervous about going to bed at night. Lynch also shot scenes for INLAND EMPIRE in his backyard. A real DIY kinda' guy.  :cheers:

You just made me go 😳 with that info. I didn't know that.

For the second time today, I misspoke somewhat. It was definitely Lynch's "house" - though apparently one of a couple buildings on the property, so it's unconfirmed whether he and Mary Sweeney slept there or somewhere else in his "compound". For her sake, I hope it was elsewhere!

If it is a John Wayne film, then it is the movie BIG JAKE (1971).
