TSP2002: Tilda Swinton: The Love Factory

I got this from here.

I’ve seen a gazillion things with Swinton by now, but this is the first (longer) interview I’ve seen with her. She’s rather interesting, actually.

It’s an interesting interview, but er I’m not really that into watching interviews, really, so I have to give this the top possible rating I could ever give an interview.

TSP1994: Visions of Heaven and Hell

Visions of Heaven and Hell. Mark Harrison, Leanne Klein. 1994.

This is a documentary TV series about the Internet and technology narrated by Tilda Swinton.

The programme starts with a disclaimer about how difficult it’s to say what the future’s going to be like, but they’re pretty much correct about a lot of what they were predicting. Especially about the impact of the Internet. You can find this and be depressed on Youtube.

“They are always on-line and never off-duty.”

TSP1990: Fruits of Fear

Fruits of Fear. Ngozi Onwurah. 1990.

You can watch this on Youtube.

“Every time you buy a Cape apple you’re buying a bullet to kill our people.” This is a documentary short with a simple message: Boycott South Africa Now. (I.e., in 1990.)

While the message is clear, I’m surprised at how fairly they present Thatcher’s point of view: We do get to hear her full er line of reasoning before it’s rebutted.

“Just don’t buy those apples.”
