her house, movie work at a halt, Ana Lily Amirpour began to excavate her
iPhone. Aside from the thousands of photos and videos and screen grabs,
she had also written hundreds of "notes" to herself, personal things
like dreams that she would quickly write down in the middle of the night
before they'd evaporate, and then analyze their meaning the next
day. Some notes were about films she was working on, story ideas,
character ideas, thoughts for actors, or production. Some were intimate
and personal, like venting the frustrations of an argument with a
boyfriend, or venting about a film experience, or agonizing about the
death of someone close. Tons of other notes were just weird, random
things: thoughts, quotes, movie recommendations, books, grocery lists.
She had email threads with herself digging into unresolved questions and
answers about filmmaking-questions about why she made a film or what it
means; questions that are always difficult to answer in a living
moment. So there she was in lockdown, reading these notes and
emails-personal things that were never meant to be shared-and realizing
she was looking at her digital diary, looking through a window at time
passing, at who she is as a person and as an artist, in a direct and
psychedelic way.
There was something exciting about the
fact that she was talking to herself in a frank, unfiltered manner. It
was imperfect but honest. "If I die tomorrow," she thought, "all this
stuff I wrote, all these intimate thoughts and ideas will go to my
grave." So she resolved to harvest the entries, some going as far back
as 2016, when she was finishing her second film, The Bad Batch, and all the way through 2021, when she was releasing her third film Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon during the pandemic.
This book is the result of that personal archaeological digital dig. Personal might even be an understatement given it's the actual stuff inside her phone. Imagine
how it feels when someone has your phone-you feel utterly exposed. With
this book, Ana Lily has decided to share something she
never imagined she'd share. Artists are always exposing themselves in
one way or another. As Ana Lily would put it, "The bottom line is I want
to dance like no one is watching, and to write like no one is reading,
because then what comes out is naked. It's you." This is the stuff that
lives inside her slimy brains. Hence the title, and the signature on
her emails... "Sent from my Slimy Brains".

À propos de l’auteur
is an auteur with confidence rooted in substance. Her thematically
direct and color-imbued body of work embodies the mantra to make the
weird real. Her feature-film debut, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night,
the "Iranian vampire spaghetti western," premiered at the Sundance Film
Festival in 2014 and was the opening selection for the New Directors/
New Films series at MoMA in New York City. The film was awarded the
Revelations Prize at the Deauville Film Festival and was given both the
Carnet Jove Jury Award and the Citizen Kane Award for Best Directorial
Revelation from the Sitges Film Festival. At the 2014 Gotham Awards,
Amirpour was honored with the Bingham Ray Award, given to an emerging
filmmaker with distinctive creative vision and stylistic adventurousness
that stands apart from the mainstream. Her second feature, The Bad Batch, a
savage desert-set psychedelic hellscape about the American dream,
starring Jason Momoa, Suki Waterhouse, Keanu Reeves, and Jim Carrey, won
the Special Jury Prize at the 2016 Venice Film Festival. Her third
film, Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon, a supernatural fairy tale set
in New Orleans, premiered at the Venice Film Festival and stars Kate
Hudson, Jun Jong-seo, Craig Robinson, Ed Skrein, and Evan Whitten. She has directed music videos and television series alongside her films, and she currently resides in Los Angeles, California.

Description de la boutique
We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first visit or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
