Gondry invents a paint-piano and uses a twirling camera to capture something truly unique. In the process, he spills paint all over Bjork's apartment.

- I only had the mask, the hat & the glove. It was my last year trick or treating so I went all out and did 3 neighborhoods.

Hey, Brits - can any of you remember a small gelatin-based purple sweet that tasted of lavendar or something, from the mid 80s?
It was like a tinier-sized midget gem hard gum thing that had a very specific taste and colour.
I can't for the life of me remember what they were.
- not smelling of a bandage. possibly lavender though.Nairn
- Parma Violets?PhanLo
- Immediate thought was Parma Violets but they aren’t gelatin, more of the ‘refresher’ style but smaller.Morning_star
- No, I just ate a pack of parma violets and that's what prompted the thought :)Nairn
- (halloween haul. i don't generally eat random sweets. Christ. "signs your getting old" Why not eat sweets? We're all going to die anyway, shapesalad included).Nairn
- Usually end up eating Parma Violets as leftovers too. No one really wants to eat them.PhanLo
- They weren’t some kind of special medication were they :-)Morning_star
- Cherry lips? I appreciate they were/are not floral or purple.MrT
- triggered - i know exactly what you mean - they were tiny little swirl hard gum things - totally unique taste ! kinda disgusting but yet so unique kinda tasty.._me_
- Choward's Violet Mints?Akagiyama
- Those are the ones, I think, _me_!
Whatever they are...Nairn - i believe they're called 'old lady fart sweets'kingsteven
- Interesting, had never seen those before. Like the packaging :-)PhanLo
- Thrills Gum? The one that tastes like soap?Akagiyama
- 'Brits', Akagiyama :)Nairn
- I doubt these weird things were imported or exported to any sane country with a decent sweet culture. They were like tiny early abortions from a bygone ageNairn
