Appropriation: Originality is overrated. Filmmakers taking footage from another film and adapting it into a new movie–Orson Welles (F for Fake), Werner Herzog (The Wild Blue Yonder) and Roger Corman (Voyage to the Planet of Prehistoric Women)–are they inspired or just desperate? (Chat about it in the FilmCouch group)
In the spirit of appropriation, email a sentence into filmcouch@spout.com. Kevin and Paul will incorporate it ever so naturally into next week’s show. The first person to identify the appropriated sentence wins a Spout track jacket from American Apparel (valued at $50).
