Video: Spike Jonze’s Mourir Auprès de Toi
The latest short film from Spike Jonze — following last year’s Nick Zinner-assisted robot love story, I’m Here, and this year’s Arcade Fire collaboration, Scenes From the Suburbs — arrived today in the form of Mourir Auprès de Toi (To Die By Your Side), a stop-motion tale of characters from canonized books coming to life in Paris’ famed Shakespeare & Company bookshop. The quirky tragicomedy stars Jonze himself, voicing the skeleton of Macbeth, and French singer/actress SoKo as Mina Harker from Bram Stoker’s Dracula, brought to life through 3,000 hand-cut pieces of felt crafted by handbag designer Olympia Le-Tan. Co-directed by Simon Cahn, the skeleton love story closes with a catchy tune sung by SoKo (sounding eerily similar to Jonze’s Where the Wild Things Are collaborator Karen O), whose long-awaited debut LP just got pushed back to January. Check out the animated felt flick above.

Brazilian boy dies after masturbating 42 times. Yes, in a row.
A sixteen year old boy in Rubiatos, Brazil was found dead one morning by his parents after his extreme masturbation got the best of him and he apparently died of exhaustion after jerking it straight through the night until morning.
Who was doing the counting?
