trembling in awe of tom noonan's voice
classic michael mann ending with violence, ellipses in editing, non-natural motion (raging bull), and extreme disorientation set to iron butterfly's in-a-gadda-da-vida, with a right channel guitar abstractions that starts with a roar appropriate to the red dragon

having just read thomas harris' first two hannibal lecter novels red dragon (1981) & the silence of the lambs (1988), re-watching manhunter and the silence of the lambs seemed appropriate. presented are some moments of sound and music from the films. following are blake's great red dragon paintings. living now near the brooklyn museum, i was interested to read in the red dragon when francis dolarhyde visits and wreaks havoc at the museum to see the great red dragon and the woman clothed with the sun. (ps - i'm not much taken by bill blake's visual work, but these are quite interesting to me, at least for the subject matter)
1.
the great red dragon and the woman clothed with the sun (also titled ...
clothed in sun) in brooklyn
2.
the great red dragon and the beast from the sea
3.
the great red dragon and the woman clothed with the sun
4.
the number of the beast is 666
entry titled from
manhunter, when the red dragon talks with freddie lounds and the rather funny title of lecter's preoccupation while incarcerated
