It's Not the Homosexual Who Is Perverse, but the Situation in Which He Lives. 1970. Rosa von Praunheim. 67 minutes. In German with English subtitles. A radically critical denunciation of homosexuals who are content to fit into a gay stereotype of social superficiality and political passivity in the face of blatant discrimination, this film caused a furor in Germany. It also led to the foundation of the modern German gay liberation movement.

Thursday, June 4, 9:15 PM Fassbinder's Women. 2000. Rosa von Praunheim.

89 minutes. In German with English subtitles. Rosa interviews Fassbinder’s superstars, who reveal his sadistic methods of keeping them in line. The question arises: are there any limits to how badly a genius can treat his co-workers, friends, and lovers? Screened together with:Can I Be Your Bratwurst, Please? 1999. Rosa von Praunheim. 28 minutes. When a highly eccentric group of Hollywood cannibals need to agree on the main course for their Christmas dinner, they settle on an unsuspecting traveler played by porn star Jeff Stryker. This ‘erotic tale’ features Los Angeles underground stars as well as Rosa’s aunt, Lucy.

Friday, June, 5 7:30 PM Army of Lovers or Revolt of the Perverts. 1978. Rosa von Praunheim. 98 minutes. Print courtesy of the Reserve Film and Video Collection, The New York Public Library for the Performing Arts. A history of the gay liberation movement in the U.S. from the 1950s to Anita Bryant, as well as a document of gay lifestyles in the 70s. From a small revolt in a Greenwich Village bar, the rebellion swelled to become the third largest civil rights movement in America.

Grace Jones performed at Meltdown, London !

Grace Jones one of our favorite people.

She performed at the Massive Attack's Meltdown at the Festival Hall, last week and received positive reviews from the sold-out show.

She acted her normal self by being 30 mins late and performed over two hours.

In the article from BBC they said that she was wearing massive high heels, a leather coat, with a huge feather on her head - combined with what looked like a pair of luminous Deeley boppers.

She told the crowd that her new album would be coming out in the Fall 2008.


She will be back performing again in the UK next month to headline the Secret Garden Party.

The Secret Garden Party in East Anglia will be on the weekend of July 24-27, tickets cost £125

Happy Birthday Grace!

actually belated birthday....Grace turned 60 yesterday



Pull Up To The Bumper

Driving down those city streets,
Waiting to get down,
Won’t you get your big machine,
Somewhere in this town?

Now in the parking lot garage,
You’ll find the proper place,
Just follow all the written rules,
You’ll fit into the space.

Pull up to my bumper baby,
In your long black limosine,
Pull up to my bumper baby,
And drive it in between.

Pull up, to it, don’t drive, through it,
Back it, up twice, now that, fit’s nice.

Full of Grace
