Jail erodes every aspect of a person’s agency. – Lindsey Krinks
I recently watched all the Charlie Chan movies Chekhov had in his collection. The low-budget Monogram Chan pictures of the 1940s weren’t as good as the 20th Century Fox ones of the 1930s, but though Mantan Moreland, who played Chan’s chauffeur in the ’40s pictures, was typically paired with Benson Fong as “Number Three son” for comic relief, a couple of the films included guest appearances by Moreland’s former vaudeville partner Ben Carter, allowing the two to show off the very funny ‘indefinite talk” routine which made them famous. The links above the video were provided by Jesse Walker , Anarres Ansible , Mistress Matisse , IncarcerNation , Nun Ya , T. Greg Doucette , and IncarcerNation again, in that order.

You don’t fucking hate them enough. – “Officer” Michael Kennedy
I’ve always counted Warner Brothers’ Merrie Melodies as the first music videos (short films intended to market a song), but I recently discovered this video, which pushes the mark back almost as far as it can go, to barely after the advent of sound movies. This is a sequence from King of Jazz (1930), a two-strip technicolor feature which is apparently a compilation of such videos; this is an abridged arrangement of Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue , and I’ve recently added the disc to my Amazon wishlist because I’d love to see the whole thing. The links above the video were provided by Shiv Ramdas ; Nun Ya ; IncarcerNation ; Radley Balko ; Popehat ; C.J. Ciaramella ; Jesse Walker and Franklin Harris , in that order.
