Le Cafe, or “Too much coffee can be dangerous”, is an entertaining short animation that tells the tale of a harrowed cubicle employee that goes through his daily routine with his coffee. Eventually the cups add up and inspire his aggression into a homicidal rampage. Directed by Stephanie Marguerite & Emilie Tarascou, and featuring the […]

A crazy anecdote by famed director Werner Herzog and his chance encounter with Joaquin Phoenix…who he saves from an upside down car crash. Maybe all that stuff about Joaquin being loose canon rapper, as portrayed in the I’m Still Here film, isn’t all just an act — maybe homeboy totally does have a very large […]
