Limited vinyl LP pressing. Superior Viaduct is honored to present the first-time release of the soundtrack from La Jetée. This vinyl album features both French and English voiceover narrations, along with organic textures and Trevor Duncan’s impressionistic score. More than half a century has passed since La Jetées theatrical release - now is the time to travel back to the sudden roar of this masterpiece in a completely different light. This is the story of a man, marked by an image from his childhood. Thus begins, with deceptive simplicity, Chris Markers La Jetée (1962). The film, by far Markers best-known work, synthesizes many of the elusive filmmakers central preoccupations - time and memory, power and resistance, the ephemerality and resilience of love - yet it also undermines the very idea of film. Composed almost entirely of still photographs, La Jetée quite literally pieces together the tale of an unnamed, forsaken protagonist, drafted into a series of time travel experiments in post-apocalyptic Paris. While Marker creates some of the most hauntingly beautiful imagery in cinema, what animates La Jetées frozen pictures is its sparse and unsettling soundscape. Whispers, breaths and heartbeats offer an unnerving reminder of bodily rhythms that, inside the film and out, will inevitably cease. Fragments of symphonic music at once capture a love affair and underscore the tragedy awaiting it. The poetic momentum of the narrators voice, our only guide: On the tenth day, images begin to ooze, like confessions.

Great book, but no new info for a huge Homer fan...
Format: Hardcover
Neat book, but anyone who is a huge Homer fan, like my husband (who the book was for) will not learn anything new - so I am told. Although there is a ton of great info in there about Homer and his friends/everyday life, it's a huge disappointment to hear that he already knows everything in the book. I guess that's a super-fan for you!

To funny
Format: Hardcover
If you’ve seen the show, then the book is just as funny. It takes all of Homer’s “advice” and puts it into a cute book. I have it on my shelf next to my Duff energy drink

Funny and unexpected
Format: Hardcover
I bought this book for my girlfriend who is a big Ralph Wiggum fan. When it arrived, I was shocked to see what a thorough exploration of the character it was. I'm not saying it's all canon in terms of the show, as i saw some complaints that there was stuff in this book that wouldn't make sense to the Ralph character (such as his love for Lisa) due to them "breaking up" in a past episode, but come on, that's a hogwash complaint. The whole point of this book is to entertain, and it does so in spades, so it comes highly recommended. And this is coming from a huge 'The Simpsons' fan himself.
Oh, and by the way, my girlfriend loved it, too.
