Perkenalkan, 5erbaLima, semacam ‘rubrik’ anyar di situs yang sebetulnya sangat jarang di-update ini. Isinya daftar 5 hal tentang, ehm, apapun. Bebas. Hal-hal yang sedang melintas di kepala saya, atau yang sudah (ke)lama(an) mengendap di sana. Penting atau ndak, itu lain soal. Biar gaya, saya kutip kata-kata Oliver Wendell Holmes, “Why can’t somebody give us a list of things that everybody thinks and nobody says, and another list of things that everybody says and nobody thinks?“ Tanpa perlu banyak cingcong lagi, ini dia 5erbaLima edisi perdana: “Lempar Cakram Sembunyi Tangan!“ Alias 5 kutipan soal piringan hitam di film-film yang pernah saya tonton. Yuk mari!
1.
Isherwood: “What’s that? Why’d you get it sent here?”
Stan: “Carla wouldn’t approve. She thinks it’s dumb to spend $600 on an LP.”
Isherwood: “Carla’s right. Why don’t you just spend $13.00 on a CD, man?”
Stan: “First of all, it’s because I’m a Beatlemaniac. And second, these sound better.”
[Karakter yang diperankan Nicolas Cage tentang kenapa dia lebih memilih memakai alamat kantor ketimbang rumahnya ketika memesan piringan The Beatles via online; di film The Rock (Michael Bay, 1997). Pasti banyak dong, vinyl junkie yang seperti ini, hehe. Daripada diomelin pasangan?]
2.
Zach Braff: “There’s something really sexy about a girl who collects vinyl.“
Natalie Portman: “Although you guys totally had to teach me how to put a record on.”
Zach Braff: “Ha ha, I know. Natalie’s like never put a record on in her life.”
Natalie Portman: “I grew up with tapes, bud.”
Zach Braff: “I know, I think it’s really cute though.”
[The Making of Garden State (2004), video dokumenter 28 menit tentang.. ehm, apa lagi kalau bukan Garden State? Ada yang sepakat dengan Zach? Saya tidak pernah bisa suka The Shins, by the way. It doesn’t change my life, Natalie. It never will.]
3.
“You gotta invest in this when you’re young. A record is like life. It goes around and around.“
[Nasihat #saranrock dari toko musik kepada anak kecil untuk #jajanrock, di film Empire Records (Allan Moyle, 1995). Haha!]
4.
“You think it’s healthy to obsessively collect things? You can’t connect with other people… so you fill your life with stuff. I’m just like all the rest of these pathetic collector losers.“
[Seymour, seorang record collector akut, mempertanyakan dirinya di film Ghost World (Terry Zwigoff, 2001). Mungkin ada benarnya. #jleb]
5.
“Suka musik? Kita ke rumahku saja. Piringan hitamku banyak!“
[Sugito berusaha merayu Palupi, di menit ke-17 film Apa jang Kau Tjari, Palupi? (Asrul Sani, 1969). Hehehe. Ada yang pernah mencoba modus serupa? Ampuhkah? Boleh di-share di comment lho.]

aduh itu no.4 mak #jleb banget LOL. “Do you have Soul?” | “That all depends.”
Hehe. Dari film yg sama: “Now, the making of a good compilation tape is a very subtle art. Many do’s and don’ts.”
Kayaknya list ini menghindari klise dengan tidak memasukkan kutipan dari High Fidelity ya hehe. Dan Shaun of the Dead. Atau Pirate Radio. Hehehe.
Hehe, tau aja..
