June 5th, 2007 Posted in Manly Mondays
Burt Pugach is today’s Manly Monday Testicle-driven Tuesday pick. Sorry for the delayed post. I had a CRAZY day on Monday. (Long story.) At any rate, you can click here to find out why Burt is the Manly Monday / Testicle-driven Tuesday pick.
For those of you who can’t access Nerve, I suggest the following links:
- Official site for “Crazy Love“
- My podcast interview with the film’s co-director / producer, Fisher Stevens
- The “Celluoid Skyline” exhibition I mention during the interview
- The film “Once in a Lifetime” that Fisher mentions. (Honestly, it’s one of the best soccer flicks out there.)

Sounds like a good film, I should watch it sometime. Incidentally, that line you mentioned about how “films like that exist because watching other people suffer is a favourite human past time” reminds me a lot of the Tool song “Vicarious”. The lyrics go something along the lines of -
Eye on the TV
Cause tragedy thrills me
Whatever flavor
It happens to be
and
Cause I need to watch things die
From a distance
Vicariously, I
Live while the whole world dies
You all need it too – don’t lie.

I don’t know the answer to your question posed in the title of this post, but if it’s that smooth brotha in the photo, then he’s a P.I.M.P.

I’m more shocked that she married a man who wears leisure suits (unironically) than anything else.
