Directed by Robert Frank
"Today memory creeps along the wall at Seven Bleecker. In the back of my eyes, longings and obsessions, Outside someone is yelling Robert! I love New York…." Robert Frank looks back on a lifetime of memory-gathering through photographs, home movies (his parents' gravesite, June Leaf making art), portraits of artist friends (Raoul Hague, Allen Ginsberg), and portraits of those he admired (Jean-Luc Godard). The film resembles one of Gregory Corso's "shuffle poems," as Frank muses, "Together go words and images without sound. I have an obsession in my life for Fragments which reveal and hide truth." — Museum of Modern Art

I would recommend any Discworld book wholeheartedly, anything with Rincewind is hilarious (The last continent is a favorite of mine), also I think Moving Pictures is pretty interesting commentary on modern entertainment. I read them all over a decade ago and some of the lines I remember still make me chuckle. EDIT: Also the movie(s) Going Postal are great..."The Smoking Gnu" :)
