David Bowie - Cat People (Putting Out Fire) Music Video HQ

One of my favorite movies from the 1980's, this is a remake of the beautiful, haunting 1942 CAT PEOPLE. This version keeps the same idea: a mysterious young virgin travels to the decadent charm of New Orleans and discovers she is the descendent of a race of feline humans who transform into ravenous beasts when sexually aroused, and then must kill to regain their human form. David Bowie's theme song goes perfectly with the dark tone of the film, with a little goth rock influence thrown in. I've used the longer album version here. The movie definitely goes off in some very Freudian directions, but it's hard to imagine another actress in 1982 who could so immediately suggest a panther than Nastassja Kinski with her hypnotic, green-eyed, thick-lipped beauty. Luckily for us, she had a European attitude towards her body.

AU REVOIR SHOSHANNA!

[Zidders Roofurry]

Whatever gets you off while watching this, I guess.

There is a song..an "Oldie"..sung by the Everly Brothers entitled.."The Price Of Love"...alluding to the fact that you might be as adventurous as you like,as surfacely carefree as you like...but to go madly doing things in order to make things better simply never really works if your heart is really elsewhere....all you are doing is being destructive to yourself. A "gasoline" scenario..............K xx

Yes....trying to put out fire with gasoline......if anything,not only impossible but only makes things worse (or more intense)......Shoshanna in I.B....or maybe an equivalent in "real life"?! K x

[geminiwednesday16]

Mesmerising....utterly hypnotic music and timeless....David Bowie. K xx

A character in the movie Inglorious Basterds from Tarantino played by French actress Mélanie Laurent. Must see film. However I don't get the relevancy...
