GODZILLAS:TWOFER [ONE IN 3-D]

ゴジラ対ヘドラ

海洋汚染が進む駿河湾の河口でオタマジャクシに似た奇妙な生物が見つかる。漁師の吾平からそのことを知った海洋生物学者の矢野は息子の健と共に調査 へ出かけるが、矢野は海底で謎の生物に襲われて顔面に重傷を負い、健も海岸から飛び出した巨大なオタマジャクシのに襲われる。幸い健はナイフで戦い怪我は 無かった。それ以来、海では原因不明のタンカー事故が相次いで発生するのだった。ゴジラが大好きな健は、ヘドロだらけの海を見たらゴジラも怒るだろうな、 と考える。そんな汚れた海から産まれた怪獣ということで、謎の生物は「ヘドラ」と命名された。そしてある夜、工場の排煙を求めてヘドラが上陸してくる。 ゴーゴー喫茶で踊っていた行夫とミキはヘドラに遭遇するが、そこへゴジラが出現。二頭は激しい戦闘を繰り広げるが決着は付かずに終わる。そしてヘドラは更 に進化して、真昼間に飛行し始めた。その際、街に硫酸ミストを撒き散らして気分が悪くなる人やヘドロをかけられ白骨化して死ぬ人が続出する。矢野は散ら ばっていたヘドラの細胞から、隕石について地球に飛来した鉱物で出来ている生物とつきとめる。そして高圧電流で乾燥させる事がへドラの弱点だと解明し、自 衛隊に電話して大至急で300万ボルトの電流を流す電極版を作り始めた。その頃、ゴジラはへドラを追撃する為、富士山麓へ向かっていた。・・・
1971年　日本　Godzilla vs Hedorah、Godzilla vs. the Smog Monster　監督：坂野義光　製作：田中友幸　脚本：馬淵薫　坂野義光　特殊技術：中野昭慶　撮影：真野田陽一　音楽：眞鍋理一郎　主題歌：麻里圭子 with ハニー・ナイツ & ムーンドロップス『かえせ!太陽を』　出演：山内明（矢野徹）　木村俊恵（矢野敏江）　川瀬裕之（矢野健）　柴本俊夫＝柴俊夫（毛内行夫）　麻里圭子（富 士宮ミキ）　吉田義夫（伍平爺さん）　鈴木治夫（自衛隊幹部将校）　勝部義夫（自衛隊技術将校）　岡部進（アナウンサーA）　★★★★

当 時の社会問題、光化学スモッグや海のヘドロ汚染を取り上げた、貴重なゴジラ通算11作目。当時ゴジラは正義のヒーローとして偶像化されていましたが、それ に社会問題をくっつけたアイデアは素晴らしいですね。観客である子供に公害の恐怖を植えつけるかっこうの映画でした。そういうオイラもその口で劇場公開時 に子供ながら公害はイカン、、生物を死滅させると感じたものです。へドラの造詣もいかにも気持ち悪く作ってありますし、顔の半分がただれた特殊撮影や白骨 化した死体も登場していますので、子供にとっての恐怖演出は抜群でした。また今回見直したら、ゴーゴー喫茶とか富士山麓で踊りまくろうとか、若者の文化も 取り入れていたのですね。監督の坂野義光さんは、ゴジラを丸くして飛ばせる事で製作の田中友幸さんと対立したとか。田中友幸さんは、ゴジラの生みの親なの に彼が入院している間に、東宝の幹部を説得、そして作っちゃった。以後、田中さんの逆鱗に触れた為干されたとか。でも、この監督の先進的なアイデアはオイ ラは買いますね。彼をこの後、使っていたら、また違うゴジラ・シリーズになったかもしれませんね。但し子供路線ははずしてしまうかもしれませんがね。

以下Wikipediaより引用

ゴジラの演技者は中島春雄。「怪獣大戦争」と「怪獣総進撃」で作られたゴジラを流用している。7年越しの登場となる「大戦争ゴジ ラ」は、プール撮影や港に上陸するシーンなどで使われたが、富士山麓でヘドロまみれになるシーンで修復不可能なダメージを受け、以後の映画には登場してい ない。メインで使われた「総進撃ゴジラ」は、次作「対ガイガン」まで使いまわされている。公害怪獣ヘドラの「陸・海・空」三態のデザインはすべて井上泰幸 による。この年をもって利光貞三や八木寛寿、八木康栄ら主要スタッフが退職し、代わって造形チーフを引き継いだ安丸信行が製作。演技者は中山剣吾。ラテッ クス製の発泡ウレタン（フォームラバー）で作られている。坂野監督は敵役ヘドラの造形に関し、自ら脚本にト書きを入れるほどのこだわり（ヘドラの目玉につ いて脚本に「女性器のような」という記述を加えるなど）を見せ、飛行態などのデザインにも積極的に関わっている。撮影初日にはヘドラの体に毒々しい色彩を 加えようと思いつき、自ら塗装を始め、ついにはこの作業に一日を費やしてしまった。今作ではヘドラを演じ、後にゴジラのスーツアクターを務めることになる 薩摩剣八郎（当時は中山剣吾名義）によると、この重ね塗りした塗料の重みで、ヘドラの着ぐるみ（ぬいぐるみ）は非常に動きづらかったそうである。水槽内で 泳ぐオタマジャクシ状の幼体ヘドラは、ドジョウにコンドームを被せてメイクを施したもので、水槽に電気を通して動きを撮った。陸上ヘドラの頭頂部にはひび 割れがあるが、公開当時は「怒ると脳味噌がはみ出てくる」と説明されていた。

MANNUAL

Who:

The famous costume designer
interviewed at the Rock and Hall of Fame and Museum,
where some of his costumes are displayed.
Howard Kramer,
the Rock Hall's
curatorial director interview.

What a way to start a career: James Dean's costumes for the movie "Giant." Since then, costume designer Manuel made Johnny Cash the "Man in Black," crafted Elvis' gold lame jumpsuit and created Bob Dylan's stage wardrobe.

He's done his share of glitzy Western wear for many country singers. He even met Patsy Cline but never got to see her wear the two dresses he made for her: They are believed to have been lost in the plane crash that killed her.

Manuel -- also known as the "Rhinestone Rembrandt" -- talked to us from Nashville, Tenn., where he lives.

It's been a wild ride for Manuel Cuevas, 70, the son of a cattle merchant with 11 siblings. From the time he was 7, when his older brother Adolfo taught him how to sew, Manuel knew he'd found his calling.

He went to a small college in Mexico, where he majored in psychology and accounting -- "It has served me well," he says, seriously -- then moved to Los Angeles.

Soon after, he ended up on the set of "Giant," as one of a team of people working for Edith Head. "She said, 'You can do James Dean's costume -- these are Texans,' " says Manuel, who understood exactly what she meant.

He went on to work for several Los Angeles' tailors, making clothes for the Rat Pack (Frank Sinatra, et.al.). But he got bored with that, and moved to Nudie Cohn's famous Western store, where he designed costumes for Roy Rogers and the Lone Ranger.

The latter created a huge moment for him.

"I remembered when I used to walk five miles as a child to go see a Lone Ranger movie and here I was, 15 years later, making Clayton Moore's costume," Manuel says. "We became good friends."

When he's making stage costumes for larger-than-life stars, Manuel says he keeps this in mind: "Make the character: If he's a clown, really make him a clown. If he's a beggar, a beggar. Know the people you are working for and find out what they're hungry for, and that gives you an image."

"Then, go a little over the top."

So, you've got to ask the man who has made so many over-the-top costumes for iconic figures: Who has most profoundly affected him?

"I would say the Grateful Dead."

Really?

"Yes. I made smiling skeletons for them, put roses on them, and it became emblematic for them."

One of his biggest challenges, he says, was Bob Dylan.

"So many performers want to look like peacocks: Frankie Valli, Kenny Rogers, Glen Campbell. They wanted to be pretty. Bob wanted to be more sedate, but unique, and he was very particular."

Manuel's costumes in the Rock Hall's "Sparkle & Twang" exhibition ran through March 1. It was compiled by Marty Stuart.

The talk and the explanation which are while seeing stage live broadcasting in 1979 of Bowie.

オープニングの解説は滑舌が悪いしw
観ていたのは1979年のライヴ・パフォーマンスなので、
グラムロック期からは約6年はずれている・・・・・・
yo (￣д￣) ne
曲としては、76年の「Station to Station」から、シングルカット曲です。シン・ホワイト・デューク期です。


i remember it now! it's from Saturday Night Live and there's Klaus Nomi in the background...and David is dressed like an air hostess or sth...please upload the whole thing...please!!!

I'm sorry. The upload is impossible.
All videos more concerned with SNL to complain from N/BC will be sometimes eliminated immediately.
Upload was tried once by edit only of the early arrival of the song and the last part, but that was also eliminated immediately.
It's only this really last partial chisel that I can upload it.

can you please upload David's live performance, please! i think he does TVC 15 and he's wearing a skirt! please upload it, youtube is full of Bowie performances, why would they delete yours??

When a performance part in Bowie is put in any more, it's eliminated, so only the last part.

Lone Ranger's Mask: WORLD'S MOST FAMOUS FETISH? ASK MANUEL!

Manuel: Manuel Arturo José Cuevas Martínez, born April 23, 1938 in Coalcomán Michoacán, Mexico, is a designer of Rhinestone-studded, brightly coloredd, beaded and fringed original designed and talilored suits, pants, shirts and ensembles, largely worn by both, Rock 'n' Roll and Country & Western stars.

The fifth of eleven children of Esperanza and José Guadalupe Cuevas was taught to sew by the age of seven.

He attended the University of Guadalajara, majoring in Psychology, and moved to Los Angeles in the mid-50s, where he apprenticed under master embroiderer, Viola Grae. Manuel continued with Grae until meeting Nudie Cohn.

Nudie's was THE C&W clothier period. Its fashion has now become synonymous with the 'Nashville Style" of the 40s, 50s and 60s.

RHINESTONE:

"A colorless artificial gem of paste or glass, often with facets that sparkle in imitation of a diamond. Although rhinestones are inseparably associated with the costumes of country and western singers and Las Vegas dancers, the word originally had European associations. The Rhine in rhinestone is the (French) Rhine River, and rhinestone is a translation into English of the French phrase caillou du Rhin. Originally a rhinestone was a kind of rock crystal that was found in or near the Rhine. Other types of rock crystal, such as Cornish diamond, were given similar fancy names. Because rhinestones could be made to imitate diamonds, the name rhinestone was applied to artificial gems made from paste, glass, or gem quartz and as a result often carries a connotation of showbiz glitz."

Quite simply, Ukranian immigrant, Nudie Cohn, was the first man to apply rhinestone to male country and western's star performers, both astonishing, in combination with his intricate, neon-colored, embroidered tableau and fearless in his use of the rhinestone to outfit men in the entertainment business's most macho field, with something only formerly worn by women.

He invented what we may now consider with irony, awe, or both, into an empire based on the remixing of those two elements which effect a certain segments of show business today--from Nashvegas to Las Vegas with a definite stop along the way at Graceland, where Bill Belew's evolved it into the ultimate sartorial statement of supremacy.

Nudie earned himself the title, 'Rodeo Tailor to the Stars,' and those stars came to include almost every member of the Grand Ole Opry to the hippest Rock ' Rollers in the late 60s and 70s. Beginning with Gram Parsons, whose influence on the Stones' was all-encompassing, including their style, to the above mentioned Elvis Jumpsuit, and, of course, Elton John.

Others followed, all caught up in the masterful embroidery, and, to many people's eyes, the garish ornamentation of rhinestones: both simultaneously Nudie's trademark.

Manuel quickly became Nudie's head tailor,and by the early 60s, his head designer--remaining with Cohn for fourteen years.

I BET YOU DIDN'T KNOW:
Besides the Lone Ranger's mask and Cowboy Outfit, Manuel was responsible for:
The Beatles' Suits on the cover of "Sergeant Pepper's..."; Johnny Cash's 'Man in Black' Suit; the Grateful Dead's 'Rose and Skeleton' insignia; and maybe his most famous design by proxy, an 'inflatable lips' pillow for Mick Jagger, which John Pasche later designed into The Rolling Stones' logo.

In the mid-70s Manuel married and divorced Nudie's daughter, Barbara, opened his own business in North Hollywood, and purchased a dozen sewing machines from infamous designer, Nathan Turk, whose, 'Turk of Hollywood,' had closed recently, due to poor health [Turk never cashed the check from Manuel].

By the late 80s, Manuel had moved to Nashville to be close to his 'Music City' clientele.

At 72, he still lives his passion and life's work every day at 1922 Broadway, Nashville, Tennessee's "Manuel's Exclusive Clothiers.'
