The Life Aquatic / Bill Murray's epic

[Will Dockery]

Bill Murray in some of the memorable moments from The Life Aquatic.

Yes, the red cap is cool as hell, and the beard is better with a little trim...

"But are we not men?"

Beards do grow every day on grown men living the epic.

Interesting that you would choose this quote from H.G. Wells' "The Island of Dr. Moreau," as the speaker is not a man.

> Beards do grow every day on grown men living the epic.

Yes, and most of us either shave or keep them neatly trimmed.

[Will Dockery]

Yes, I love the elder Wells, as well.

Peter J Ross wrote a poem in which his father was a Morlock.

Probably my favorite of his poems, I will admit.

😀

[Will Dockery]

I've tried to, as have many others, to get Dave to follow through on some new looks, but he follows his own concept of how he wants to "look", and rejects suggestions like that. He doors trim and shave, but that's his look, take it or leave it.

I think the pants comments and so on are a bit silly, but that's just me, and the Braves jacket is a collector's item from their winning season in the 1990s.

The red cap is Dave's homage to Bill Murray, his favorite actor, in "The Life Aquatic".

A great film, if you haven't seen it, look for it.

😀

Yes, that was what's called a joke.

That's just it, you're judging Dave on a misrepresentation, since he does
trim and shave, or he'd have a much longer beard.

So, he doesn't match the way you want to look, that's you... and if you want
to go through life looking like Frank Sutton, so be it.

It's an odd joke in that it hints that your brother is subhuman.

Most hair (facial or otherwise) only grows to a certain length. Dave's beard looks like it belongs to a homeless man. Dave's wardrobe looks like it belongs to a homeless man. In fact, I passed three dead ringers for Dave lying in puddles of urine on 42nd Street this morning.

That's my Summer look. Right now my hair is shoulder length, my face clean shaven, and I'm wearing a black suit with a black turtleneck, and black fedora.

[Will Dockery]

No, I was at the famous steak house in Auburn with Brother Dave sitting across the table from me, last night. In fact, I made a post or two from there on the mobile gizmo.

Dave's mustache and some beard looked fine to me, cool, even.

It reminds me of a photograph of a person from the old West or Civil War days... and yes, probably trimmed since that photo.

So, that style doesn't meet your personal approval, Pendragon... in no way does that make his choice of look "wrong".

In my opinion.

[Michael Pendragon]

Okay. That speaks volumes.

Yes, this is a poetry group, there's no place for discussions of the personal life of my brother here.

We've all seen enough photos to recognize the Dockery family on the street. And we've all read Will's autobiography (in all of its manifestations). And we've all been made privy to Will's resume on LinkedIn. So I think it's a safe bet to say that we all have a pretty fair idea of what "the working Dockery family" works at.

Wow. Considering what details of your life you have revealed, it really makes one wonder what you're holding back.

But that's okay. Enquiring minds *don't* want to know.

You can probably use your imagination just as easiiy.

Well, that's good to know... but not everyone can make a statement such as that, Pen.

You don't get out much, do you?

Wild beards are quite fashionable these days.

[Michael Pendragon]

Okay. That explains it.

I thought all those guys with knit caps and unruly beards lying in what looks like a puddle of urine were ... bums. Now that I know they're "homeless chic" hipsters, I won't be so quick to walk away from them.

[Will Dockery]

Okay, so you don't know what I'm talking about, Pen... I'm really not
interested in an endless argument over fashion.

Why don't we just let this one end, how my brother wears his beard and
dresses is not anyone's business, and certainly not the business of a poetry
group.

Sound like a plan?

[mydemon...@gmail.com]

Fine by me. You're the one who'd started this thread (comparing your brother's outfit to Bill Murray).

No I was the one who asked you to leave the personal business and family members out of this poetry group, remember?

And then you go starting a thread pointing out how "fashionable" your bum brother is. You're a lying, dishonest fuck. And Dave is a pissbum and supports you.

Getting back to the topic, the Bill Murray movie "he Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou", I just fund the deluxe edition from the Criterion Collection, a $40 package... for five bucks last night, and that is a blast to have on my table beside me right now as I type these immortal words.

I just found the soundtrack album to "The Life Aquatic" last night at Book Nook in Atlanta.

An amazing collection of sounds conveying vision, more on this later.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Life_Aquatic_with_Steve_Zissou

"The film stars Bill Murray as the eponymous Steve Zissou, an eccentric oceanographer who sets out to exact revenge on the " jaguar shark" that ate his partner Esteban..."

[Will Dockery]

This film was directed by Wes Anderson... who seems to be on as great a
level as Welles or Godard as a film-maker.

It was more of a Devo reference, who also contributed heavily to the
soundtrack of the film.

Of all the idiotic things you've ever said, this one takes the cake.

[Will Dockery]

I only know the one film so far, but are you familiar with Wes Anderson and his other movies?

If so, a "Pendragon Rough Guide" to the films by this director would be greatly appreciated, since buying his 7-8 movies will be rather costly and time consuming.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Life_Aquatic_with_Steve_Zissou

I found an extra copy, in mint condition, of the double disc Criterion Collection version, for almost zero $$$. In other words not $39.99 list price.

As Scotty said in Star Trek: "This is exciting!"

:D

[mydemon...@gmail.com]

No, I'm not familiar with his films. I've never even heard of him before.

To place him on a level with Orson Welles (film history is split between "Film before 'Citizen Kane'" and "Film after 'Citizen Kane'") is absurd.

[Will Dockery]

Yes, I do know what you mean, here's Wes Anderson, though:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wes_Anderson

"Wes Anderson is regarded by many as a modern-day example of the auteur. He has received consistent praise from critics for his work, and three of his films—The Royal Tenenbaums, Moonrise Kingdom, and The Grand Budapest Hotel—appeared in BBC's 2016 poll of the greatest films since 2000..."

I know, I know... "modern movies", bad, bad, right?

[Michael Pendragon]

Oh, okay. I've heard about "The Isle of Dogs." I mean, I'm sure it's very cute and all, and the celebrities voicing the doggies probably throw in some funny lines for the adults, but ... you're comparing *that* to Orson Welles?????

[Will Dockery]

I did find a great used copy of "Lady From Shanghai" on DVD the other day,
my all time favorite Orson Welles film.

[Will Dockery]

The Royal Tenenbaums... another Wes Anderson classic I just discovered.

I just read the news Bill Murray is having some problems this week, even had his newest film shut down.

Hopefully all will turn out fine.

[W.Dockery]

I haven't heard about that yet, I'll Google it.

[Zod]

https://nypost.com/2022/04/26/bill-murray-spotted-for-first-time-since-being-mortal-scandal/

******************* Bill Murray was spotted for the first time Tuesday since his “inappropriate behavior” allegedly shut down production of Aziz Ansari’s flick “Being Mortal.”

The comedic legend and SNL alumnus was nabbed racing through Los Angeles International Airport around 6 a.m. local time, cutting off more than a dozen travelers to get through security to dodge questions about the controversy.

“Mr. Murray, how are you sir?” the man filming the brief encounter is heard asking the comic.

“Sir, is there anything you can say about the ‘Being Mortal’ set being shut down?”

He reaches a line of air travelers waiting to get through security, cuts off more than a dozen people, and reaches the security checkpoint — without answering.

The actor has been mum about the halt in the movie’s production earlier this month following a bombshell allegation that he had been “touchy” with women on the set. *****************************
