The Forty-sixth Repetition-- A Few Good Finds

So, so, so... I found a few cool things that I wish to share, this may be short...
TV On The Radio did a short video for their album Nine Types of Light, that includes interviews with people about life, love, dreams and the future AND music videos for every song on the album... the video for "You" is actually quite hilarious and sad... here's the video...

Also, there's a documentary called We Are Wizards, that is about the music that Harry Potter fans make about the books/films (that's right, people make Harry Potter music), it's good to know that such nerdy and odd things have such a good scene too...

A few free films on youtube (at least for right now) include Plan 9 From Outer Space (considered the worst movie ever), four Charlie Chaplin films, El Mariachi, M (a mystery film by Fritz Lang), Vampyr, and Nosferatu, all pretty cool, so jump on those while they're available!

Also, Winter Chairs has a youtube, if you are interested, here are two studio recording shorts, chronicling mishaps and what not...

ANYWAY, there are a few things, now on to recommendations!
With my first comment I will say my album is Nine Types of Light by TV On The Radio, which (in my opinion) is the best TV On The Radio album next to Return To Cookie Mountain (which is a wonderful record).  For a film, I recommend Project Nim, which is a documentary about an experiment to teach a chimp to communicate via sign language.  It has some issues but is a good movie.
