from Chemohawk Sessions · host Falsetto Prophet

Welcome, Cinematic Fanatics, to Slick Flick Pick, an entertaining, slick/flick-explaining series, a desirable diversion from the main vein of Chemohawk Sessions. You are my Cinematic Fanatic; I, your worthwhile f****** cinephile. For your secondary episode, I offer a congressionally selected film successfully admitted into the National Film Registry as it proved culturally, historically and/or aesthetically significant and noirish, never boorish auricular presentation of one of our most favorite, most frequently re-watched, most colorful characters embodied by our man… Jack fucking Nicholson, working off a stellar screenplay and capturing old Los Angeles in a fresh, contemporary gorgeous gloss : Chinatown, circa June 1974. In honor of this Slick Flick Pick unveiling, I describe, through smooth detailing, this flick's slickness unfailing, noir prevailing and rich dialogue regaling. This is a slick cinematic experience that touches a trio of genres: noir, mystery, and drama. It transitions so seamlessly between genres and oft simultaneously, in such a way, that you process it as a simple study in filmmaking sleekness. I have adored this film since the unique treat of my first viewing. Imagine, if you can, that bliss multiplied by a factor of two the moment I realized that Red Devil expressed a reverence for this film, meeting, if not exceeding, even my own. Recline, Cinematic Fanatics, in your favorite well-worn, stale chair, rustle up some popcorn, fresh as fstars, the antithesis to that stale a** chair, I just mentioned, zoom in and zone out as we unwind the daily grind with a slick f****** flick pick. Chinatown is the flick, so very slick, hence my fstars pick! When Slick Flick Pick is near, stick around, till, Falsetto Prophet's voice, you hear. Lights... camera...action... lends distraction and, with the right Slick Flick Pick, grants satisfaction. I am your worthwhile cinephile; you're my cinematic fanatics; together, we, excitement unlock and run down the real world's unimaginative fstars clock while feasting our eyes on this slick-flick-pick prize. Enter, with us, you cinematic fanatics, into the realm of film's fantasy as we unwind the grind of reality.
