White or Black

Crowe=Bad Denzel=Good (Note the octagonal and cross-quarter platform)

Crowe=Good Denzel=Bad

American Gangster attracts attention by having the primary black and white theme associated with the checkers most frequently seen in synchromystic works on the Masonic tracing boards. The posters of the film show Denzel (bad guy/gangster) and Crowe (good guy/cop) in primary black and white with a mirrored NY skyline. Thus the theme of duality and reversal is extremely prevalent. The movie itself often goes into the issue of race as Denzels status as a black Kingpin is uncharacteristic and the main players are of opposite colour (thus white vs. black)

Interesting to note the reversal expressed again in there earlier partnership 'Virtuosity' where Crowe plays the virtual villain while Denzel takes the cop role.

Thanks to Piepan for pointing this out.

I am interested in seeing American Gangster this weekend. Firstly I love gangster movies, Miller's Crossing could be my favourite film and love the Jay-Z song playing during the commercial. Synchromysticly its interesting because of the primary white vs black poster campaign. Been speaking much about the checkerboard and am attracted to this theme, I've also been looking into Spy Vs. Spy for an upcoming video...

Is it just me or is everybody outside my apartment (I do go out, I swear) wearing houndstooth? Well, they are in Winnipeg...

I could just ad here that Michael (who's doing some really groovy work!) at Gosporn wrote some fascinating stuff about the Pillarmids and the H. The Double H Ranch

I would just like to ad the H in Woody Allen's Manhattan to his syncs about this subject.

Didn't Paul Laffoley get fired for suggesting connecting the towers with a bridge?

A news piece I found over at Red Ice today.

Jesus, no wonder I stopped blogging loading pictures takes forever!

In addition it occurs to me that Henrik and Fredrik Palmgren's (The Red Ice Bros) cool new subscriber video went into some interesting black and white symbolism connected to genetics and cloning. So if you have a subscription check it out, get one if you have been toying with the idea...
