Watched Chinatown (1974) today. If you like suspense, this is one of the greatest. Directed by Roman Polanski. Btw, the film used the name Chinatown, but it has nothing to do with chinatown or Chinese.

Postures of Female and Male tag:xahlee.org,2010-04-16:202728 2010-04-16T13:27:28-07:00 My point in showing this ad is that i had the idea to collect ads that shows the relationship of the sexes. Majority of ads, shows attractive female (say, as opposed to attractive male). And, this heroic male hoding a unconcious female is common motif. They are everywhere, especially in cover arts for comics, movie posters. Or, typically the female kneels, sits, besides a outstanding hero.

Am starting this arts blog, of anything about visual arts. Photography, illustrations, pains, thougths, etc. This blog is branched off from my main blog Xah Lee's Blog, so it is more subject focused.

For past few hundred pages of photography and visual art, see: Xah Lee Visual Arts.
