Excerpt: Alejandro Jodorowsky (Spanish pronunciation: ) (born February 7, 1929) is a Chilean filmmaker, playwright, composer and writer. Born to parents of Ukrainian Jewish heritage, he subsequently embraced the occult and studied comparative religion, being an avid tarot card reader, and formulating a form of psychotherapy known as "psychomagic". Best known around the world for his avant-garde filmmaking, his horror films, most notably El Topo (1970), The Holy Mountain (1973) and Santa Sangre (1989), combine surrealism with elements of the occult and have become cult classics. He is also a prolific writer of comic books, which he has been creating since 1966, and has also written books on the subject of psychomagic and an autobiography. Jodorowsky was born in 1929 in the town of Tocopilla, Chile, to Jaime Jodorowsky, a merchant who was largely abusive to his wife Sara Felicidad, at one time accused her of flirting with a customer. Angered, he subsequently beat and raped her, getting her pregnant, which led to the birth of Alejandro. Subsequently, Sara both hated her husband and disliked her son, telling him that "I cannot love you." Aged nine he was forced to leave his village by his father, whom he hated, and he devoted much of his life to reading to occupy himself. He also got involved in poetry, publishing his first poems aged sixteen, and associating with the Chilean poets Nicanor Parra and Enrique Lihn. Another hobby that he developed was in theatre and mime, and aged seventeen he made his debute as an actor. The following year he founded a pantomime troup, the Teatro Mimico. In 1953, Jodorowsky wrote his first play, El minotauro (The Minotaur). That same year he traveled to Paris to study pantomime with Etienne Decroux, the teacher of Marcel Ma...

Excerpt: Alejandro Jodorowsky (Spanish pronunciation: ) (born 7 February 1929) is a Chilean filmmaker, playwright, composer and writer. Best known for his avant-garde films, he has been "venerated by cult cinema enthusiasts" for his work which "is filled with violently surreal images and a hybrid blend of mysticism and religious provocation." His most notable works include El Topo (1970), The Holy Mountain (1973) and Santa Sangre (1989), all of which have had limited release but achieved popularity amongst various countercultural groups. He has cited the filmmaker Federico Fellini as his primary cinematic influence, and has been described as an influence on such figures as Marilyn Manson and David Lynch. Jodorowsky is also a playwright and play director, having produced over one hundred plays, primarily in Mexico where he lived for much of his life. Alongside this he is also a writer, particularly of comic books as well as books on his own theories about spirituality. Jodorowsky has been involved in the occult and various spiritual and religious groups, including Zen Buddhism and forms of Mexican shamanism, and has formulated his own spiritual system, which he has called "psychomagic" and "psychoshamanism". Jodorowsky was born in 1929 in the coastal town of Iquique in Tocopilla, Chile to parents who were Jewish immigrants from Russi...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=262658 ... Read more

Excerpt: Sir Charles Spencer "Charlie" Chaplin, KBE (16 April 1889 25 December 1977) was an English comic actor and film director of the silent film era who became one of the best-known film stars in the world before the end of the First World War. Chaplin used mime, slapstick and other visual comedy routines, and continued well into the era of the talkies, though his films decreased in frequency from the end of the 1920s. His most famous role was that of The Tramp, which he first played in the Keystone comedy Kid Auto Races at Venice in 1914. From the April 1914 one-reeler Twenty Minutes of Love onwards he was writing and directing most of his films, by 1916 he was also producing, and from 1918 composing the music. With Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and D. W. Griffith, he co-founded United Artists in 1919. Chapli...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=5142 ... Read more

Excerpt: El Topo (The Mole) is a 1970 Spanish language allegorical, cult western movie and underground film, directed by and starring Alejandro Jodorowsky. Characterized by its bizarre characters and occurrences, use of maimed and dwarf performers, and heavy doses of Christian symbolism and Eastern philosophy, the film is about the eponymous character - a violent, black-clad gunfighter - and his quest for enlightenment. For many years the film could only be seen at midnight screenings, in arthouses and via partially censored Japanese laserdiscs and bootlegged videos until its official DVD release on May 1, 2007. The movie takes place in two parts. The first half resembles a western; albeit a surreal one. The second is a love story of redemption and rebirth. The first half, set in an unnamed desert, opens with El Topo (played by Jodorowsky himself) traveling with his naked young son. They find a town whose citizens have been slaughtered and El Topo hunts down and kills the outlaws and their leader, a fat balding Colonel. El Topo abandons his son to the monks of the settlement's mission and rides off with a woman whom the Colonel and his outlaws had kept captive as a slave. The woman, whom El Topo names Mara, convinces him to defeat the four great gun masters to become the greatest gunman in the land. He duels each of them and during each duel, El Topo emerges victorious through trickery or luck. After the first duel, an unnamed woman with a male voice finds the couple and offers to serve as a guide. Her involvement will prove El Topo's downfall. Ridden with guilt, El Topo de...http://booksllc.net/?id=1844221 ... Read more

Excerpt: Alejandro Jodorowsky (Spanish pronunciation: ) (born February 7, 1929) is a Chilean filmmaker, playwright, composer and writer. Born to parents of Ukrainian Jewish heritage, he subsequently embraced the occult and studied comparative religion, being an avid tarot card reader, and formulating a form of psychotherapy known as "psychomagic". Best known around the world for his avant-garde filmmaking, his horror films, most notably El Topo (1970), The Holy Mountain (1973) and Santa Sangre (1989), combine surrealism with elements of the occult and have become cult classics. He is also a prolific writer of comic books, which he has been creating since 1966, and has also written books on the subject of psychomagic and an autobiography. Jodorowsky was born in 1929 in the town of Tocopilla, Chile, to Jaime Jodorowsky, a merchant who was largely abusive to his wife Sara Felicidad, at one time accused her of flirting with a customer. Angered, he subsequently beat and raped her, getting her pregnant, which led to the birth of Alejandro. Subsequently, Sara both hated her husband and disliked her son, telling him that "I cannot love you." Aged nine he was forced to leave his village by his father, whom he hated, and he devoted much of his life to reading to occupy himself. He also got involved in poetry, publishing his first poems aged sixteen, and associating with the Chilean poets Nicanor Parra and Enrique Lihn. Another hobby that he developed was in theatre and mime, and aged seventeen he made his debute as an actor. The following year he founded a pantomime troup, the Teatro Mimico. In 1953, Jodorowsky wrote his first play, El minotauro (The Minotaur). That same year he tr...More: http://booksllc.net/?id=262658 ... Read more
