Two Questions

Post by David »

1-In the Lopez video, Graham is in the car with his shades on-the way he looks-is he taking the piss out of Jarvis from Pulp-who were all the rage in the popular press at the time ?

2-Plan 9, is this name from a cult movie ?

Cheers

I have not seen Plan 9 From Outer Space but been told that an actor died whilst shooting. The solution was to replace the actor and have the charracters face covered for the rest of the movie!

Hmm. Wonder why it went to be a cult movie.

I was n intensionaly looking like Jarvis,but thats exactly what I thought.
It was an odd video as it was almost completly improvised due to the
origenal director dropping out the day before due to some family crisis
Nicely filmed on the atlantic coaast of spain by some advert director.
Lemon Films was partly run by fruit management ,who were our managers at the time,they did all the `Don Solaris vids,my favourite being Bond.
as for Plan 9,watch the film ED WOOD staring Johnny Depp,Dirrected by
Tim Burton,With an oscar winning performance by Martin Landau(space1999)
as Bela Lugosi..it expains evrything,and has a cameo role by Korla Pandit
(one of my keyboard influences)
