Title: Altered States and Aha Take on Me
Post by: Iain Fisher on December 24, 2020, 06:52:32 PM
Thanks to Inverse Site and the article "HOW A ROCK OPERA DIRECTOR MADE THE TRIPPIEST SCI-FI MOVIE OF THE 1980S" on Altered States which points out a Ken Russell hommage in Norwegian band Aha's iconic video of Take on Me.  Some images soon.  The article is here

It is difficult getting the proper images from the Aha video (it moves too quickly) so here are the videos for now.

A poor version of Altered States with Spanish subtitles, but the scene is at 1 hour 38 mins

and Aha at 3 minutes 20 seconds
