OK. Notwithstanding this ostentatious post title… what a pleasure it was to see Alex Cox’s quirky masterpiece, Repo Man projected from a Blu-ray disc this week! I remembered its brilliance from umpteen enthralled viewings in London, back in the day, when there was often very little else to do after a night’s pubbing/clubbing than retire to whomever’s gaff and watch a VHS, with some vinegary fish and chips in hand. Ah… the olden days.
After the closing credits finished this week, some crazy dancing ensued, just like in the slightly less olden days. Then, a bit of red wine along and the now-famous combo of ‘teen Acres Curried Apple Chutney and blue cheese… and then, goodnight. Perfect.
