Bonecrusher Hemingway: Documentary by Eric Reichbaum

Meet 'Bonecrusher Hemingway,' a slight man with heavyweight dreams of arm-wrestling glory. Watch his final day of preparation as he must shed unwanted pounds before the big event which will pit him against female opponents who are bent on interrupting his Herculean assault on the Olympian heights of athletic achievement.

This is a first documentary by photographer Eric Reichbaum and it made me laugh… a lot. Sometimes people do something they want to do and you just have to watch them do it.

 

1960 Trailer for Jean-Luc Godard’s Breathless

This is a 1960 trailer for Jean-Luc Godard's exploding hand-grenade of a film, Breathless. It's a brilliant trailer that casually itemizes the best features of the movie. I am betting that Godard made the trailer himself. In other words, this would be an actual Godard film. That's him doing the male voice-over work. This is the same director who recently made a film trailer that compressed an entire film into four minutes of fast-forward.
