“Monique was the kind of character that exists only in Fellini movies: hyper-sophisticated, hyper-dramatic, hyper-hysterical. Tall, buxom and blonde, she even looked like Anita Ekberg in La Dolce Vita. She claimed to have discovered Hiram Satyricon Keller and to have lost many of her admirers to her close friend and frequent house-guest Rudolf Nureyev. She was always heartbroken but never missed a party.”
Bob Colacello reflecting on Monique Van Vooren in his book Holy Terror: Andy Warhol Close Up (1990). Belgian-American actress, dancer, cabaret chanteuse (she released the album Mink in Hi-Fi in 1958), international sex kitten and plastic surgery enthusiast Van Vooren (25 March 1927 – 25 January 2020) was born on this day 97 years ago. If you’re unfamiliar with Van Vooren, think of her as a kind of “lost Gabor sister” – or at least a kissin’ cousin. Her wayward filmography encompasses Tarzan and The She-Devil (1953), playing Queen of Skulls in Pier Paolo Pasolini’s The Decameron (1971), Andy Warhol’s Frankenstein (1973) and the Liz Taylor face lift melodrama Ash Wednesday (1973) (in which she is billed simply as “German woman”).

I got tagged by @tinydooms “people I'd like to get to know better"! Here we go: 
Last song: I've been listening to the album “Eros, Agape, Philia” by Queer Feminist trad. folk/electro artist Sara Parkman on repeat the last week. Her song “the rose” has the most delicious stanza of sacral stream of consciousness lyrics: Eve: give me the apple, Heart: bring the beat, Eat me, Eat the bread, Drink me, Drink the blood, Bite me, Hard in the hand, Chaos give us life, Dance for us.” (own translation). And some of her queer fighting spirit lyrics have made this atheist sense God (through an understanding of Nietzsche’s take on Christianity’s slave morality). If it sounds intense, it’s because it was.
Favorite colour: Yellow. Love a pop of bright yellow to lighten your mood, or a musky mustard yellow for that autumn vibe. Doing my best to stay in academia style.
Currently watching: Avatar the last airbender live action with the kids: Going through all Brendan Fraser films on my own. (Favorite so far, beside the Mummy, is Airheads!) 
Spicy/savory/sweet: most times I would go with savory: a good plate of cheese and charcuteries. If sweet: it needs to be tart! Sour raspberries with dark chocolate.
Relationship status: married with three kids!
Hidden talent: I speak Japanese. (And I’m great at knitting but that's more in the open)
Current obsession: it’s a tie between Brendan Fraser and Tarzan. (No need for George of the Jungle jokes.)
Tagging: @ricochetoconnell and anyone else who wants to play.

little project from a couple months ago, which were redraws of some fitting 80s album covers with my oc, atticus! i had originally planned to do four, but life got away from me, and i am really satisfied with these two, actually. but perhaps in the future, there will be more. i have way too many ideas for him.
first one is the album "synthesist" (1980) by harald grosskopf. this album is legendary to me and reminds me so much of the energy of his story. i often put it on when trying to write scenes, and highly recommend it. i never thought i’d be trying to capture him painted silver but it was fun to try full rendering for the first time in about a decade.
now, number two is the single "tarzan boy" (1985) by baltimora. if my story were a movie or show, it’d definitely be making an appearance! this song and i go way back. i still remember really listening to the lyrics for the first time and thinking, “this has to be about being gay..” and then learned that it, in fact, is. it still makes me emotional from time to time, it’s just so good.. in the live performances he reminds me SO much of atticus, even back when i created him in 2016 i would always imagine he had some kind of secret lanky dancing talent haha. if i ever get to animating i’d love to use his performances to bring atticus’ moves to life. he has such a silly and fun charm that i find is integral to atticus’ character, despite his serious demeanor. also, while looking for an atticus-esque replacement band name, i learned that “oxymoron” has a plural form lols

With his shrewd eyes and his forks of corn-yellow hair, Julian Sands was a natural choice to play the valiant, romantic George Emerson, who snatches a kiss from Lucy Honeychurch (Helena Bonham Carter) in a Tuscan poppy field in A Room With a View (1985). “I wanted him to be real, not a two-dimensional minor screen god,” he said. “I liked him in his lighter, sexier moments, less so when he was brooding.”
Sands, who has died aged 65 while hiking in mountains in California, was dashing in that film, but he could also project a dandyish, effete or sinister quality. He was blessed with a mellifluous voice and a lean, youthful, fine-boned face, even if, as a child, his brothers insisted he resembled a horse. (He agreed.) In James Ivory’s film of EM Forster’s novel, he was pure heart-throb material. His participation in the notorious nude bathing scene was no impediment to the picture’s success.
Prior to that, he had played the journalist Jon Swain in The Killing Fields (1984), Roland Joffé’s drama about the bloody rise of the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. The picture marked the beginning of his friendship with his co-star John Malkovich. “I’d been cautioned by Roland to keep my distance from John because he was an unstable character,” Sands recalled. “And John had been told by Roland to stay away from me, because I was a refined, sensible person who didn’t want to be distracted. In fact, we bonded instantly.”
Malkovich directed Sands in a one-man show in which he read Harold Pinter’s poetry. First staged in 2011, the production had its origins in an occasion six years earlier when Pinter, suffering from oesophageal cancer, had asked Sands to read in his stead at a benefit event in St Stephen Walbrook church in the City of London. The writer “sat in the front row with his stone basilisk stare”, Sands recalled.
Not all his work was so highfalutin, and a good deal of it fell into the category of boisterous, campy fun. In Ken Russell’s Gothic (1986), he played the poet Shelley, who indulges in sex, drugs and séances with Lord Byron (Gabriel Byrne) and the future Mary Shelley (Natasha Richardson), and is prone to recite verse naked in thunderstorms.
In a similar vein but far less deranged was Impromptu (1991), which brought together other notable 19th-century figures including George Sand (Judy Davis) and Frederic Chopin (Hugh Grant). Sands, who played Franz Liszt, described it as “Carry On Composer”.
Born in Otley, West Yorkshire, he was raised in Leeds and Gargrave, near Skipton; he later described his childhood as “part conservative and part Huckleberry Finn”. His mother, Brenda, was a Tory councillor and leading light of the local amateur dramatic society, while his father, William, who left when Julian was three, was a soil analyst. Julian made his acting debut in a local pantomime at the age of eight.
At 13, he won a scholarship to Lord Wandsworth college, Hampshire. He moved to London to study at Central School of Speech and Drama, and while there became friends with Derek Jarman. He played the Devil in an extended promotional video that Jarman directed in 1979 for Marianne Faithfull’s album Broken English. The role had been intended for David Bowie, who dropped out at the eleventh hour. “You’re devilish,” Jarman told Sands. “You can play it.”
The actor’s first film appearance came in an adaptation of Peter Nichols’s stage comedy Privates on Parade (1983), starring John Cleese and Denis Quilley, from which his one line of dialogue was cut. There was more rotten luck when he won the lead in a new Tarzan movie, only for the financing to fall through. It was eventually filmed as Greystoke: The Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes (1984), with Christopher Lambert donning the hallowed loin-cloth.
On television, he starred with Anthony Hopkins in the miniseries A Married Man (1983). In Oxford Blues (1984), he was a rower butting heads with a Las Vegas parking attendant (Rob Lowe) who has tricked his way into a place at Oriel College. He was in The Doctor and the Devils (1985), inspired by the Burke and Hare case. “I had a roll in the hay with Twiggy which took about 15 takes,” he said.
Following A Room With a View, he agreed to play the lead in Ivory’s next Forster adaptation, Maurice (1987), before abruptly dropping out and fleeing to the US. In the process, he left behind his wife, the journalist Sarah Sands (nee Harvey), who described him as “restless” and “dramatic”, and their son, Henry. “I’m not the first person to create stability and security and then dismantle it even more effectively than I created it,” the actor said.
Once in America he took on an array of film parts. In Warlock (1989), he played the son of Satan, wreaking havoc in modern-day Los Angeles. Investing this pantomime villain with lip-smacking brio, he was likened by the Washington Post to a “hell-bent Peter Pan” and nominated for best actor in the Fangoria Chainsaw awards. He reprised the role in Warlock: The Armageddon (1993).
As an entomologist in Arachnophobia (1990), he was called upon to have as many as a hundred spiders crawling all over his face. Alternating these mainstream projects with arthouse ones, he played a diplomat in pre-war Poland in Krzysztof Zanussi’s Wherever You Are … (1988) and a monk in Night Sun (1990), the Taviani brothers’ adaptation of Tolstoy’s short story Father Sergius.
For the Canadian horror director David Cronenberg, he starred in the warped and witty Naked Lunch (1991), which disproved those who had declared William S Burroughs’s original novel unfilmable. Just as outré but less accomplished was Boxing Helena (1993), directed by Jennifer Lynch, daughter of David. Sands played a surgeon who keeps a woman captive by making her a quadruple amputee.
After starring as a young classics teacher in his friend Mike Figgis’s film of Terence Rattigan’s The Browning Version (1994), Sands worked a further six times with that director, appearing in his movies even when he was an unorthodox choice for the job in hand. One example was the part of a menacing Latvian pimp in Leaving Las Vegas (1996).
Later roles include a mysteriously unblemished Phantom in Dario Argento’s version of The Phantom of the Opera (1998), Louis XIV (whom Sands described as “the first supermodel”) in Joffé’s Vatel (2000), a crime kingpin named Snakehead in the Jackie Chan vehicle The Medallion (2003), a computer security wizard in the comic caper Ocean’s Thirteen (2007), a younger version of the businessman played by Christopher Plummer in David Fincher’s take on The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (2011) and a sadistic paedophile in the gruelling wartime odyssey The Painted Bird (2019).
On television, he was a Russian entrepreneur in the fifth season of 24 (2006) and the hero’s father, Jor-El, in two episodes of the Superman spin-off Smallville (2009). For the BBC, he played two very different actors in factually based one-off specials: first Laurence Olivier in Kenneth Tynan: In Praise of Hardcore (2005), then John Le Mesurier in We’re Doomed! The Dad’s Army Story (2015).
His recent work includes Benediction, Terence Davies’s haunting study of Siegfried Sassoon, and the thriller The Survivalist (both 2021), which found him back in the company of Malkovich. One of several titles still awaiting release is the drama Double Soul (2023) starring F Murray Abraham and Paz Vega.
Sands never stopped wandering, walking, running and climbing. “I am on a perpetual Grand Tour,” he said in 2000. Asked in 2018 about his eclectic career, he explained: “I was looking for something exotic, things that took me out of myself. I think I found myself a little boring.”
He was reported missing while out in the San Gabriel mountains, north of Los Angeles, in mid-January 2023. His remains were found in June.
In 1990 he married Evgenia Citkowitz. She survives him, along with their two daughters, Imogen and Natalya, and his son.
🔔 Julian Richard Morley Sands, actor, born 4 January 1958; died circa 13 January 2023

Aca Top 10: Disney Heroes — VoicePlay music video
youtube
Disney animated movies are probably best known for their music, and almost all of them have a showstopping tune for their main characters. Singing or listening to those songs can feel empowering. So, sit back, relax, and spend a few minutes being inspired and entertained by these goofballs.
Details:
title: Aca Top 10 — Disney Heroes (feat. J.None)
original songs / performers: "Go the Distance" by Roger Bart as Hercules in Hercules (1997); [0:37] "When Will My Life Begin?" by Mandy Moore as Rapunzel in Tangled (2010); [0:55] "You'll Be In My Heart" by Glenn Close as Kala & Phil Collins as the narrator in Tarzan (1999); [1:24] "One Jump Ahead" by Brad Kane as Aladdin in Aladdin (1992); [1:44] "Colors of the Wind" by Judy Kuhn as Pocahontas in Pocahantas (1995); [2:06] "Reflection" by Lea Salonga as Fa Mulan in Mulan (1998); [2:33] "Part of Your World" by Jodi Benson as Ariel in The Little Mermaid (1989); [3:00] "How Far I'll Go" by Auliʻi Cravalho as Moana in Moana (2016); [3:23] "I Just Can't Wait to Be King" by Jason Weaver as Simba, Rowan Atkinson as Zazu, & Laura Williams as Nala in The Lion King (1994); [3:40] "Let It Go" by Idina Menzel as Elsa in Frozen (2013)

arranged by: Geoff Castellucci
release date: 21 September 2017
My favorite bits:
J.None's clear, hopeful tone on "Go the Distance"
the rhythm section being confused as to where they're supposed to be looking before their parts begin
Eli shrugging off his own muscles compared to Earl and J 💪
Layne's little finger wiggle from the beginning of "You'll Be In My Heart" being redirected at Geoff
the crunchy harmonies on the ♫ "Whoa-o-o-oa, number seven" ♫ transition
Layne's scampering percussion riff in "One Jump Ahead"
Geoff looking over at Layne while singing ♫ "why he grins" ♫, and Layne shrugging
J's flirty little wave to the camera during "Reflection"
Eli and J following the lyrics for ♫ "jumping, dancing" ♫
that lovely bell chord on ♫ "street street stree-ee-ee-eet" ♫
the back row dramatically looking left and right as they sing the words
everyone's befuddlement at Geoff taking the lead on the beginning of "Let It Go" ("That's not your song, bass man.")
Earl's adorable power pose at the end
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Trivia:
○ VoicePlay had recorded and/or performed several of these songs previously:
"How Far I'll Go" was in their "Moana medley" video just one month before.
"I Just Can't Wait To Be King" was included in The King Returns medley on their 2012 album "Once Upon an Ever After". It was also part of the "aca-Disney" mashup they created for the Disney On Broadway 20th anniversary celebration.
"When Will My Life Begin" was in their condensed Tangled performance at the 2015 Disney Social Media Moms Celebration.
"Let It Go" was part of their "Wow! Vol. 1" medley during the 2015 Sing-Off tour. Layne also snuck it into one memorable rendition of "Road Trip".
○ A couple of these songs were revisited in later videos:
"Part of Your World" was, of course, included in their "Little Mermaid medley" with Rachel Potter in 2020.
They recorded a full version of "Go the Distance" with EJ Cardona in 2021.
○ Eli's incredible riff and declaration of "Xtina for life!" at the end of the "Reflection" excerpt are in reference to the pop version of the song that Christina Aguilera recorded for the movie's end credits.
○ The YouTube description includes a parody verse for "Reflection" — "Whooooooo is that Earl I see… / Staring straight at Eli? / When will my REFLECTION show / Jellied ham and RICE!!? / Yummmmmmmmm… "
○ The guys are all wearing graphic t-shirts featuring characters from the movies included in the countdown:
J.None — Hercules flexing his biceps, surrounded by a circle of text reading, "Don't act like you're not impressed"
Earl — Pua the pig from Moana with the inscription "I'm no bacon"
Eli — Ariel and Sebastian in a circular frame with "Little Mermaid" in jagged heavy metal style lettering across the top
Geoff — Genie from Aladdin with a microphone in hand and a blue neon sign reading "Applause" emerging from his shoulders
Layne — Mufasa's face from The Lion King with the word "king" in black letters across the top
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
○ This is the first in a mini-series within their "Aca Top 10" series, that was followed by countdowns for "Disney Sidekicks" and "Disney Villains" over the next year and a half.

Say what you want about the Disneytoons produced Disney sequels (and boy do I have things to say about them) but they did contribute much to the genre of 'Disney song that slaps and is probably a bit odd that no fucker knows about'.
Deception, disgrace; aye folks know about the 90's music video zebra and gazelle, but I offer TLK III remixing a bunch of lines and giving us the majesty that is Digga Tunnah Dance. Prince Charming is notable in Cinderella III, flinging himself out the window and all that, but I offer you Hayden Panettiere singing a song that istg invented fairytale romance!
Also on offer:
The fucking Tigger Movie making me cry with a collaboration from Footloose singer Kenny Loggins and Disney icons the Sherman Brothers
A bunch of dogs from Lady and the Tramp II singing about living in a junkyard, that isn't especially good, but is an absolute bop.
A song from 101 Dalmatians II that was included on a Disney compilation album back in 2004, which might seem a bit odd nowadays if the album hadn't been full of strange song choices for even back in 2004.
A rock cover of I Wan'na Be Like You by Smash Mouth. No I didn't make this up. It's real. It's there. I'm not trying to rickroll thi (There seems to be two versions, one with Baloo, the other just with Mowgli. No clue why. This is is the one without) - Bonus: shoutout to Sora and Amity Blight singing about the jungle rhythm.
Phil Collins coming back for Tarzan II to give us Who Am I?, a song I absolutely fucking love. Also yes that is American comedian George Carlin as the gorilla.
Two of the sweetest songs you'll probably ever hear in your life from Bambi II: There is Life and First Sign of Spring.
The absolute belters that are Welcome to this Day and Feels Like Home from Brother Bear 2. Massively underrated. Love these two.
Some are better than others, and some aren't necessarily good per se, but they're fun in their own way and scratch that particular itch. Some make me feel good, most are incredibly nostalgic, some may surprise you. Go take a listen!
