Only stereotypes.ġ:44 In five seconds, they randomly showed a kid rolling a tire, a woman’s legs in a short skirt, and an elephant. Can I get a flag or something? I’m starting to think it’s not India, for which if I’m right, my sincerest apologies to the young laughter girl in the beginning for calling her “Indian.” Sorry, I don’t see color. BE CAREFUL, LE BON.ġ:42 I would really like to know where this was set. So, I guess they are on the hunt for him because he’s disappeared to go find that lady in the woods? I guess? Also, I’m pretty sure the headband member of Duran Duran:ġ:35 Simon, now on a rickety bridge, almost just died. Again, I don’t think this little kid they’re talking to knows he’s in a music video, and is simply reacting to these two colonizers asking for directions.ġ:31 The one in the headband showed the confused kid a picture of Simon. Wait, are these the other members of Duran Duran? What are they looking at? Are they hungry for Simon? WHAT IS GOING ON.ġ:27 Strike that last thought, I think these two white guys running in the streets of wherever this is are some of the band members. Can’t wait for your existence to never be explained. Just looking.ġ:22 Oh hello there, forest people. I wonder where he’s going? Going to find his lady? Probs yes.ġ:21 Pretty rude guy, Simon is. Could people in the “80s not understand scene changes unless allusions to books were made? Not hating, just purely curious.ġ:14 Simon’s on a boat now. CLASSIC INTERFERENCE.ġ:12 Oh HELLO THERE, “80s graphics department.Ĭonfused by what you’re looking at? Oh, that’s just the page turning from one scene to the next. There is really nothing that interferes with the complete domination of someone else’s land like an indigenous love interest. This is the one-second subliminal flash of the woman I’m assuming Simon is hungry for. Hungry for colonization, maybe? Were they sent by the British? So confused. If Simon was so hungry, why did he flip that table? Pretty sure there was food on it.
Did this part of the world become a British colony after the “Hungry Like the Wolf” video won a Grammy? So many questions.Ġ:55 I’ve never known what they were so hungry for. Did they even ask permission to shoot this? This video screams colonization. Bon.Ġ:46 The people in this flea market he’s storming through have no idea what is going on. All he did was say “do do do” a bunch, take off his Hellboy glasses, and then apparently get fed up and table-flip. And he didn’t even get asked to leave, because this is make-believe (unless, as noted earlier, this is a documentary).Ġ:42 Got so caught up in the table flipping that I haven’t the first clue why he flipped the table. If someone uttered, “Can anyone get access to a snake charmer? No? Well, can we pay some kid to pretend to be a snake charmer? Oh, we can? Great,” I’m calling it triple racist.Ġ:41 I am forever jealous of Le Bon, because he just did the coolest thing one can do, that being flipping a table. If this isn’t documentary footage, I’m calling this potentially racist. Are they on a study abroad program? What is this?Ġ:23 Oh, there’s snake charming. That girl’s earrings were so long.Ġ:03 That laugh in the beginning was the work of a little Indian girl? Never would have guessed, but that’s just the CUTEST.Ġ:08 Where was this shot? This doesn’t look like Great Britain.Ġ:19 They are the only white guys in this village. If you have an idea for a future episode of Rembert Explains the ’80s, e-mail us at note: The album cover for Rio will always be one of my favorites. This week’s installment was selected by Grantland editor-in-chief Bill Simmons: “Hungry Like The Wolf” by Duran Duran. Rembert will write down his thoughts as he’s watching it, then we’ll post those thoughts here. Every so often, we’ll e-mail 25-year-old Rembert Browne a video from the 1980s that he hasn’t seen.
