ANTHROPOLOGY 5 SHORT FILMS by VICTOR SOLOMON at A FINE TOOTH

It was my pleasure to style these five shorts by director Victor Solomon, based on the book Anthropology, by Dan Rhodes.

Anthropology is a collection of 101 stores, each 101 words long, about femme fatale ex-girlfriends.

Victor’s take on five of these stories included a color theme for each, namely: Red, White, Blue, Gold and Drab (Olive).

I have included stills from Red, White and Blue above. I have difficulty containing my excitement about these three colors. (I predict they come back in style in 2009.)

Extra credit if you recognize the leading man/narrator.

KEITH + KENNY: Congratulations

Weddings are always a cause for celebration when the cause for the wedding is love.

But when it’s also for progress, I say “God Bless, America.”

I wish I could claim these outfits, or even the photos, but Keith Boadwee–80s art star, professor of art theory at San Francisco’s CCAC and author of BoadweeBlog honoring all things britpop–and Kenny “Beans”–owner of a thriving SF courier concern and ex-manager of grunge-rockers The Meat Puppets, have always been way out ahead in things both fashionable and forward-thinking. So of course they had it covered.

Congratulations, guys. <3
