   About Shanks and the Dreamers
Shanks and the Dreamers new full length album, "my darling Dia" drops Sept. 16th 2008. The album was created by the production duo Shanks and Art. It features 11 tracks, spanning a year in the making. It is a grand departure from the previous release, A Day Late: Instrumentals for Illegal Aliens. How you ask, well, this album is not an instrumental album, but one with words. Two songs are also featured on Amir Motlagh's new film Plain Us. We will start leaking songs soon enough. Be patient

Keith Richards confesses to NME magazine that, following his father's cremation in 2002, he mixed his old man's ashes with cocaine and snorted them up. Richards quickly took back his remarks, claiming it was a joke that the media should "file under April Fools." Sure thing. Does that come before or after "Going to Hell"?

HungryArtistDVDMedia.com: PRESS RELEASE; DVD “SHORT DAY” ON INDIEFLIX.COM


Digital feature "SHORT DAY" is a meditation on the trappings of compromise, and part of the script trilogy "SCENES OF IDOLATRY AND RESENTMENT", chronicling an artist's creative process and the interaction with a rival.
"Short Day" chronicles the stream of consciousness; alternating rebelling against and conformity to unfulfilled longings for love, respect and peace of mind, of a writer, Natalie, and the consequences of a love triangle. The interior narrative is as complete as "Scenes" or "Idolatry", commenting on past, presence and future emotionally, the trilogy itself has time lapses within stories the experiences, recorded to the non-linear time development of the mind honestly, revealing awareness emerging.
Written and Directed by Gabriella Bregman

Producer Fred Caruso (Schlesinger's "Midnight Cowboy", Lumet's "Network", Leone's "Once Upon a Time in America", and John Cassavetes production manager on "Husbands") wrote:
"I read with great pleasure the treatment and long version of "Scenes". Your characters and story line are deep and engaging. I like it."

HungryArtistDVDMedia.com features exposure of the film trilogy project "SCENES OF IDOLATRY AND RESENTMENT", of which the DVD "SHORT DAY" is available at IndieFlix.com, production essays based on values and part of the creative process; power structures philosophically viewed, and role models like the Italian Neo-Realists, Jack Kerouac, and John Cassavetes and the retrospective to spread more awareness amongst younger filmmakers of his vision and working methods.
"The sincere man accepts nothing which he cannot feel is right for him; he verifies everything through individual thinking." V. Howard

+ JOHN CASSAVETES on "HUSBANDS" (1970): "We worked well together. And we became friends on a level that’s unqualified by duty or loyalty; those things don’t count. The only thing that counts is that you’re all doing the same thing, you’re testing each other, testing yourself. In that situation each actor is thinking, “how far can I reach?” That’s selfish—and honest. I don’t think Peter and Benny were too concerned about how far I could go as a director; they were thinking about how far they could go as actors. And, in a realistic sense, Benny couldn’t go anyplace unless Peter was good and unless I was good. So we knew we had to work on that level, and in order to do that, we had to get tight with each other."
