...candy, Baz Lurhmann's pinwheeling, voluptuous movie should get its own chapter. Art director Catherine Martin reimagined the famous Montmartre nightclub as something like Pee-wee's Playhouse in Gotham City, stuffed to bursting with bright ideas and dark corners. The inspirations came from everywhere--fashion photography, the technicolor "Paris" of old Hollywood, the Bhagavad Gita. Plus there's a boudoir-in-an-elephant...
...elegantly creepy work of Floria Sigismondi who directed videos for shock-rocker Marilyn Manson (one featured him shaving his own armpit) and trip-hopper Tricky. And there was also prankster auteur Spike Jonze, the man behind Bjork's "It's Oh So Quiet" (a video that explodes into a technicolor musical), the Beastie Boys' "Sabotage" (a take-off on '70s TV cop shows), and Weezer's "Buddy Holly" (a good-natured "Happy Days" sendup). Jonze also showed that videos could indeed lead to the big screen: After helming some MTV clips, he went on to direct the Oscar-nominated film...

When she isn’t working on her film, Agnes, whose first language is Cantonese, spends her time boning up on Mandarin since she figured?...
...script, written by William Goldman, King veteran who also wrote the adaptation of Misery, flows beautifully and elegantly and is perfectly suited for Hopkins. The direction and script, joined with the late Piotr Sobocinski’s cinematography, reaches its height in climactic scenes that have an almost Technicolor glory to them, quite appropriate for the film’s 1950s spy drama atmosphere. Hopkins seems built for the part of Braughtigan, the enigmatic but elegant friend to Bobby. The unquenchable curiosity of Anton Yelchin’s Bobby plays perfectly against Hopkins’ mystique. It is this mystique...
...otherwise ordinary citizens who perceive the world in extraordinary ways. Synesthesia is a kind of crossing of sensory signals in which the stimulation of one sense evokes another; purple may smell like kiwi; the aroma of mint may feel like glass; letters and digits might scroll by in Technicolor. This week a few dozen synesthetes and the psychologists who study them will gather at Princeton University for the first meeting of the American Synesthesia Association--a society devoted to furthering research into the phenomenon in the hopes that it will reveal something about the inner workings of the human mind...
