Comments on: Birthday Wishes for Jess Franco http://cinebeats.blogsome.com/2007/05/12/birthday-wishes-for-jess-franco/ Mon, 09 Nov 2009 13:01:36 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=1.5.1-alpha by: Chick Young http://cinebeats.blogsome.com/2007/05/12/birthday-wishes-for-jess-franco/#comment-1698 Wed, 14 May 2008 20:41:02 +0100 http://cinebeats.blogsome.com/2007/05/12/birthday-wishes-for-jess-franco/#comment-1698 Hey Kimberly, Loved your page on Spanish Cinema. You'll be happy to know that I am currently writing my doctoral dissertation on the Spanish Horror Film 1968-1977. My aim is to then turn the diss into a book publishing. So, you should have a pretty damned comprehensive canonization of this period and topic. I'm working with the Ministry of Culture in Madrid and am in consultation with the King of Spanish horror himself - Carlos Aguilar! Re-watched SUPERCHICK the other day, trying to come up with the perfect quote from it to add to your Superchick page - but I think, for now, "I'm a M-Ma-Marine Mam" will have to do! All the best.

I'm afraid I have no idea who did the Franco illu, but isn't it fantastic?! It's very "Shag" like and appeared on the cover of a CD. Thanks for all the recent blog comments Will!

Instead of some the prentious crap I've endured. Yeah I'm looking your way Lars Von Trier I only hope other directors had the same opinion about films.

I really enjoyed your own post about Franco. I've just added your piece to my links. :) <b>Doriana Gray</b> is one Franco film I haven't seen that I'm really curious about. If you ever decide to write about the movie I would love ro read your thoughts on it. <i>I met Jess and Lina once and that will definately be something I will never forget.</i> That must have been really interesting. I'll have to look for your older post about the meeting on your blog. Thanks a lot for the nice comment Jeremy! I really enjoyed your own post about Franco.

I met Jess and Lina once and that will definately be something I will never forget.

That must have been really interesting. I’ll have to look for your older post about the meeting on your blog.

I feel like I should have written more as he is one of my favorite directors and I haven't posted too much about him yet. The mid sixties to mid seventies is my favorite period although I am very glad that he keeps on directing. "Venus In Furs", the Soledad films, "Female Vampire", "Doriana Gray", "Celestine" and "Virgin Among The Living Dead" are probably my personal favorites. I met Jess and Lina once and that will definately be something I will never forget. I love the guy and really cherish how unique and visionary his films truly are. Another great post from you....
