When fashion photographer Thomas (David Hemmings) develops the
negatives of some film he has taken of an embracing couple in a
park, he notices that there is a gunman lurking in the bushes
behind them. Returning to the scene, he discovers the corpse of the
male half of the couple, but, when he visits the site the following
morning, the body has disappeared. Michelangelo Antonioni's arty
musing on the nature of film, set against a Swinging London
backdrop, also features Vanessa Redgrave as the dead man's lover.

All five films in the series starring Charles Bronson as a
vigilante out for revenge. In 'Death Wish' (1974) mild-mannered New
York architect Paul Kersey (Bronson) takes the law into his own
hands after his wife is murdered and his daughter raped by a gang
of thugs. Jeff Goldblum makes his big-screen debut as one of the
unfortunate muggers. In 'Death Wish 2' (1981), after the suicide of
his daughter in response to another violent attack, Kersey returns
to the streets to deal out revenge to her assailants on a one by
one basis. 'Death Wish 3' (1985) sees Kersey, still distraught at
the loss of his family, take his rage out on street gangs with
weapons including sub-machine guns and missile launchers. In 'Death
Wish 4 - The Crackdown' (1987) the death of his girlfriend's
daughter from an overdose compels Kersey to declare war on L.A.'s
drug dealers. Finally, in 'Death Wish 5 - The Face of Death' (1993)
the harassment of Kersey's girlfriend Livia (Lesley-Anne Down) by
her ex-husband, O'Shea (Michael Parks), a Mafia boss using her
business to launder money, forces Kersey back towards the gun
cupboard one final time.
Recorded in 1962. Feat. Herbie Hancock. The Gaslight Inn, NY,
October 7th. Although their association wouldnt last beyond the
year and would produce one live recording, the intensity of their
encounter and their undeniable importance of both musicians as
forward thinkers, make this a momentous historical collaboration.
Lonehill Jazz. 2004.
