The title of the film combines bits of lyrics of two armageddon type songs I'm fond of
'Houses Everywhere' by Jinx Lennon: You can listen at this page: http://jinxlennon.com/video.htm

'Dead Flag Blues' by Godspeed You Black Emperor: You can hear it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-aLjup934Rk
And an update about the little movie: It's been viewed more than 1000 times on the vimeo page - which for a kind of 'arty' experiment banged together in 4 days is to me at least very healthy. I've gotten a lot of nice feedback in my e-mail and it was great to see blogs like slugger / irishleftreview / notesonthefront etc featuring it on their pages. No formal reviews as yet. Some of those would be nice. I don't mean in 'publications' - just 'this is a review' kind of thing.
I'm trying out making a couple of 'sequels' set in the capital at present as the idea doesn't feel played out yet.

"Yeats said it. He said: 'Though gravediggers' toil be long, Sharp their blades and muscles strong, They will thrust their buried men - Into the public mind again.'
If you were at all concerned, or had the slightest suspicion, that the government didn't know what was going on, it turns out that the ECB still hasn't worked out its rules on how to help us.
Seems like Lisbon just ain't gonna happen this year...
The crisis consists precisely in the fact
that the old is dying and the new cannot
be born; in the interregnum a great
variety of morbid symptoms appears.
