Tyler, the Creator is up to something. A little over two years after releasing his Grammy-winning fifth studio album, Igor, the eccentric and aesthetically-inclined rapper shared mysterious teasers to Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube with little explanation.
Titled "Side Street," the under-a-minute video shows Tyler in the throes of a passionate kiss taking place atop the hood of a pink sports car. Tyler parts ways with his flame and her dog shortly before she is joined by her apparent boyfriend, played by Odd Future member Taco Bennett. The words "call me if you get lost" fill the screen as the video comes to an end.
So what's going on here exactly? Are "Call Me If You Get Lost" or "Side Street" the names of upcoming singles? Will one be the name of his next full-length release? Tyler has yet to formally announce a sixth studio album,...

At 3:05 p.m., as throngs of people were beginning to make their daily commute home for Halloween night in Lower Manhattan, a man drove a Home Depot rental truck into pedestrians, killing eight and wounding at least 11.

Desperate
Directed by Anthony Mann
Screenplay by Harry Essex
U.S.A., 1947
One of film noir’s strongest, most unique qualities is its malleability. A film which fans and scholars deem as part of the genre need not be especially violent, nor especially thrilling, nor especially long, nor especially short, etc. Despite that so many take pleasure in listing the many ingredients they deem ‘essential’ for a movie to be described as noir, the reality is that the possibilities to play around with the elements allows for remarkable freedom for writers and directors. Anthony Mann is a name that should be very familiar with any self described noir buff, having directing more than a handful, among them brilliant gems such as Side Street and Border Incident. Much like in the latter of the the two mentioned pictures, the director takes noir by the horns and creates a sharp, tough story...

Side Street
Directed by Anthony Mann
Screenplay by Charles Schnee
U.S.A., 1950
There is a favourite saying used among film reviewers when espousing the virtues of a film that uses the story’s locale to the full extent: location ‘x’ is a character in of itself. While an admittedly clever term, it has been slightly overused in recent years to the point where it seems that just about any film’s geographical setting can be deemed a figurative character. Rare are the movies for which a director will take that saying to heart to the extent that the location actually feel like its own character, perfectly complementing the overall picture. Anthony Mann is one such director, whose stunningly brings Manhattan, the city that never sleeps, to life in Side Street.
Struggling through life as a part-time mail carrier, Joe Norson (Farley Granger) is not the most accomplished fellow in the world.

We look back at Farley Granger's movie career, from the two masterpieces he made with Alfred Hitchcock to Luchino Visconti's operatic melodrama Senso
Spotted doing a cockney accent in a play while still at high school, Farley Granger was signed to a seven-year deal by MGM in 1943 and soon put to work alongside Anne Baxter and Dana Andrews in The North Star, a pro-Soviet war film about the sufferings of a Ukrainian village under the Nazi yoke.
With a script by blacklistee Lillian Hellman, The North Star – later reissued under the title Armored Attack! – was cited by the House Committee on Un-American Activities as a prime example of Hollywood communist propaganda.
After one more film – The Purple Heart (1944) – and a spell in the navy where he discovered his bisexuality, Granger found himself cast in what would become his breakthrough film, They Live by Night. Shot in 1947, Nicholas Ray...

Actor who rose to fame in Hitchcock's Rope and Strangers On a Train, but refused to conform to Hollywood pressures
Early on in his career, the actor Farley Granger, who has died aged 85, worked with several of the world's greatest directors, including Alfred Hitchcock on Rope (1948) and Strangers On a Train (1951), Nicholas Ray on They Live By Night (1949) and Luchino Visconti on Senso (1953). Yet Granger failed to sustain the momentum of those years, meandering into television, some stage work and often indifferent European and American movies.
The reasons were complicated, owing much to his sexuality and an unwillingness to conform to Hollywood pressures, notably from his contract studio, MGM, and Samuel Goldwyn. Granger refused to play the publicity or marrying game common among gay and bisexual stars and turned down roles he considered unsuitable, earning a reputation – in his own words – for being "a naughty boy".

Another film legend and link to Hollywood’s great past has left us - Farley Granger has died, aged 85.
He passed away on Sunday of natural causes at his home in Manhattan.
My indelible memories of Granger are from his two works with one of my favourite directors, proving to be an early casting success story in Alfred Hitchcock’s career. Hitch used him twice, both times as seemingly well-to-do young men who through that little devil on his shoulder, giving into seduction and through tapping into that darker side we all we have within us, became not completely as wholesome as his boyish good looks and well-mannered demeanor would suggest.
He is of course more sympathetic in Strangers on a Train as Guy Haines, a guy who unknowingly to him after making a throw-a-way comment to Bruno Anthony (Robert Walker) on a train about wishing his adulterous wife was dead,...
