Some weekend viewing [and listening]

The Observer Review rounds-up 50 cultural highlights and curiosities available on YouTube. And if Film by Samuel Beckett, directed by Alan Schneider and starring silent movie legend Buster Keaton, isn’t to your taste [part 2 here and the final part], try some of the others – Dinah&Ella, or Aretha Franklin, maybe Martin Scorsese on Mean Streets or, perhaps, William Burroughs.. Or even Vladimir Nabokov on Lolita. There’s much more in the collected links to spend a Sunday afternoon watching. Enjoy. Adds A ‘young fella’ in the comment zone points to the uninterrupted version of Film online.

And, because I can, here are a couple of others. I’ll just link back to the video of Johnny Cash. And repost Mr Jagger et al.
