Movie Favorite

"The Sweet Smell of Success is, I think, one of the best — certainly one of the greatest New York films, for me — ever made. Alexander Mackendrick, great director. Unbelievable script. James Wong Howe, unbelievable camerawork. And Tony Curtis and Burt Lancaster — to see those two going at it, and really, you know, the tragedy of corruption and how it infiltrates every aspect of peoples’ lives. There was something so deeply dark and cynical about it. But yeah, there’s this sort of tiny little germ of hope at the end of the film, as Susan walks off with the musician boyfriend that Hunsecker has tried to destroy, and you just feel like, you know, absolute power corrupts but not totally. Still, it has a vicious sting to it, that film. It really affected me."

CHILLFILTR (46 KP) rated White Noise by Noah Gundersen in Music

Sep 2, 2019

Seattle-based musician Noah Gundersen is back with a fresh sound on his new album 'White Noise', out 22nd September. With a music video for his new track Lover, Gundersen explores themes of fear, anxiety, and desire.

Working closely with collaborator Andy Park, Gundersen navigates the sense of emptiness that lives inside all of us, and pauses to reflect on themes of attraction and the illusion of choice. For Gundersen, the experience of making music is deeply personal. In this video, we experience the connection between two souls, even as we understand the personal sacrifice that comes from making room for someone else in your heart.

Sometimes you tell yourself something over and over, just hoping that it will eventually come true, trying to fill an unspeakable void.
