1:08:00
Buckle up for DIAL H-I-S-T-O-R-Y, the acclaimed
hijacking documentary that eerily foreshadowed
9/11. We meet the romantic skyjackers who fought
their revolutions and won airtime on the passenger
planes of the 1960's and 1970Õs. By the 1990's,
such characters were apparently no more, replaced
on our TV screens by stories of anonymous bombs in
suitcases.
Director Johan Grimonprez investigates the
politics behind this change, at the same time
unwrapping our own complicity in the urge for
ultimate disaster. Playing on Don DeLillo's riff
in his novel Mao II: "what terrorists gain,
novelists lose" and "home is a failed idea", he
blends archival footage of hijackings with surreal
and banal themes, including fast food, pet
statistics, disco, and his quirky home movies.
David Shea composed the superb soundtrack to this
free fall through history, best described in the
words of one hijacked Pepsi executive as "running
the gamut of many emotions, from surprise to shock
to fear, to joy, to laughter, and then again,
fear."
"Exceptional for its juice, its jazzy compelling
fusion of social and aesthetic issues, and its
stomach-churning power."
- The New York Times
"A sense of urgency and a wrenching emotional
attack."
- The Times (London)
"Each cut turns a screw deeper until your mind
hurts."
- San Francisco Bay Guardian
"An eccentric, roller coaster ride through
history."
- Time Out

| Romano Bais - Dial My Number |
 |
Great Italo Disco song from 1985! I hope you like
it too. Romano Bais also worked on Primadonna's
'Flashing on the Floor'. The song was published on
vinyls in Spain, France, Sweden and of course
Italy! Below lyrics:
You're a pretender
Impossible mission to keep in touch
Hard to remember
Moments together, a-ha
My love is tender
Even if you're far away tonight
Why not surrender
Passion is burning
REFRAIN:
I'm loving you on the telephone
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Communication is set tonight
Please operator, don't drop the line
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Future connection is right on time
Maybe tomorrow
We'll have a synchronized rendez-vous
Darling I want you
Over and over, a-ha
My love is tender
Even if you're far away tonight
Why not surrender
Passion is burning
I'm loving you on the telephone
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Communication is set tonight
Please operator, don't drop the line
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Future connection is right on time
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Please operator, don't drop the line
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh, dial my number
Future connection is right on time
I'm loving you on the telephone...
