As always, very tired and down. I am, however, in tears, because Fátima Opera Rock. Just... Wow...

I'm just surprised it's a thing. Portugal is extremely catholic, I wonder what the reception will be. (My mother thought Jesus Christ Superstar was blasphemy o_o)

Forgot to share. For the occasion of William Russell's 100th birthday!



Because he did play Mr. Rochester in a stage production of Jane Eyre! All the pics suck, so artistic liberties were taken.

I miss him.

I haven't progressed in the Veidtwatch much. Not because I'm tired of him (oh never; if that happens, consider that my evil mirror self has killed me and took my place). It's just... people... they drain me...

Screw that, look at this! Gigantic Conrad Veidt film cycle! In 2018. Sigh.

It's 30+ films that range from easy to find to "you have to ask the right people to get it" (alas, Dida Ibsen and Christian Wahnschaffe are stuck in archive hell, and therefore unavailable to us mere mortals). The first film shown was Ich und die Kaiserin even!

You bet I would skip all my exams and rob a bank haha just kidding to be there. If I knew about it. No wonder no one told me, I would've been even more insufferable lol

Didn't do very well, apparently, that's a shame.

Here's the programme in PDF. Warning: Veidt Stare (TM).

Since 1 January 2019, the Film Heritage Funding Programme (FFE) of the BKM, the federal states and the FFA has been providing up to 10 million euros annually for the digitisation of cinema films for a period of ten years.

For the feature-length fiction and documentary films in this funding programme, filmportal.de is providing the respective film beginnings. An overview of all funded films on filmportal.de can be found here.

Further information can be found at www.ffa.de

Another thing to turn me into an insufferable bastard that makes people complain when I'm not looking probs.

HD digitalisations! So shiny and HD! Sadly, we only get clips...

Films that tickle my fancy for obvious reasons:

• Der Reigen (1920) starring the great Asta Nielsen! There are thirty minutes of the film on YouTube in very nice quality (conpared to the Internet Archive one; it's a full copy, but it's smudged).


• Der Mann, der den Mord beging (1931), which I haven't seen yet (saving it for the end). It's night and day. Or it would be if...


• Der Schwarze Husar (1932) wasn't digitised. Holy.


• Ich und die Kaiserin (1933) also got the same treatmemt. Please Murnau Institute, give us the Blu-Ray!

There's also clips for Alraune and Ariane, which also caught my eye.

EDIT: Dürfen wir schweigen? (1926) and Die Letzte Kompagnie (1930) have also been digitised. And what in the world is Das Kabinett des Dr. Larifari??

For the past two weeks I've been writing, in a fugue state, what can only be described as "weird Oberaertz thing". Very self-indulgent. Also almost 2k words long and I'm still in the beginning. If people are allowed write their self-indulgences, so can I!

We love getting carried away...

Challenge #8

Talk about a current fannish project (fic, art, vid, crochet, funko pop village) (that you are creating or enjoying)

Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

Hahaha so many...

I haven't drawn in ages. I've been so caught up with uni work, I haven't had the time and energy to do it. Same goes for writing, at least the big writing projects.

But! I have some old concepts for one piece of Ich und die Kaiserin fanart! It needs to be reworked, though.

I'm writing a crack!fic featuring Barbara exploring the TARDIS in search of wine. Except it now explores the relationship between Barbara and the TARDIS. But it's also ridiculous.

Another fic I'm writing features the Doctor, Vicki and Steven going to an alien theme park! It's only missing The One Big Important Scene(TM), and then it shall be cleaned and edited.

What I've been doing mostly is icons (I got carried away iconing (?) The Last Performance) and writing the tiniest of fics over at threesentenceficathon.
