The Lamb movie interview

0 Comments

Gabriel talks about The Lamb movie to KR0Q Radio in Los Angeles:

I hope so. I spent a couple of months working with Alexander Jodorowsky, who directed El TopoTar Babies and Holy Mountain, which were not very well known, but are cult movies over here. I felt instinctively that he really understood what I was trying to articulate on that album and the story. We changed a few things, and finished the script, and handed it over to the film company who are a little reluctant to put the money up when I was dropped by the American label over here. So it’s hovering in the balance a bit, because even though there is the name of Genesis to sell the soundtrack, they also want a return from their investment on my product as well. So I’m hoping we can get things sorted otherwise we’ll look for other backers. But is is hovering in the balance at the moment.

Pacino is interviewed and talks about his love of theatrical acting, how he started and his motivation.

I’m between the movies and the theater and I don’t consider myself one or the other, I’m an actor. I like movies in some ways the same way that I like the theater.

AS First Lady interview

0 Comments

Clinton is interviewed about becoming Arkansas first lady. She talks about privacy, the couple’s young age, children, and her relationship:

I’m very lucky because I married Bill when he was a defeated politician. He had lost his race for Congress, and I had known him for a period of time before that in law school, before I ever knew really that he was interested in politics and had an opportunity to get to know him. We have, for me, an excellent marriage. I’m not sure that it would suit other people, because the kinds of strains that we’ve been talking about, being in the public eye, being separated from one another are ones that not everyone could live with…But I really believe in what he’s doing, I think that he’s a superb human being as well as a good politician, so that for me, those are sacrifices that I’m willing to make, and he’s very supportive of me and everything that I do, and I try to do as much as I can for him so that, I think there are strains in any marriage, and a political marriage, of course, has strains, but I’m not so sure that any marriage doesn’t have their own particular kinds of strains and each couple has to work out an accommodation for whatever reasons there may be. So that we’ve worked out ours and we’re very happy , and I just hope that other people can work our their strains as well as I think we have.

Soul Train interview

0 Comments

Jackson is interviewed by Don Cornelius after the making of The Wiz, a film by Quincy Jones. They talk about Jackson’s experience with working with Diane Ross, the inspiration from the original script the Wizard of Oz and there is a snippet of a musical scene with Jackson who plays the Scarecrow and Diane Ross, playing Dorothy singing Ease on down the road.

When I was real small I saw the original Wizard of Oz, the Judy Garland version. I always fell in love with the scarecrow I think most kids do ’cause you feel sorry for him and everything and his character, and I always watched him. Matter fact I had the step down they did when I was around six. Follow the yellow brick road!

Bataclan concert

Music Performance0 Comments

The band are filmed before and during their performance at the Bataclan theater in Paris. The film shows excerpts of The Return of The Giant Hogweed, The KnifeSupper’s Ready. On The Musical Box Gabriel wears a fox head and red dress (in later tours he will use an old-man mask).

Int: When did you start to develop the theatrical side of your music?

PG: I think it came naturally… I had started to do a bit of mime and it increased with the music…and this last year it became more exaggerated than it was before…

Int: Who do you think you imitate the best ?

PG: Alice Cooper, I spent six months in the US to imitate him… and I watched 17 films of him on stage, just to copy his movements almost exactly… and David Bowie, I’ve been living with him for the last three years, which allowed me to understand a lot of his technique…

Int: But you’re the only one (in the band) to be theatrical…

PG: Of course, they’re all busy with their instruments…

TB: He’s singing, but there are a lot of moments where he doesn’t and so he must do something to get paid as much as the others…

Int: And you’ve never been tempted to act like him ? … it seems to me that Peter is the pop star, as if the others only play as a support band…

PG: No, Tony is having tap dancing lessons and next time we play in France he will do five minutes of tap dancing… and Steve does some numbers by Maurice Chevalier…

MR: The point to remember is that the theatrical side always enhances the music rather than the music…
