Jackie Gleason's cellmates are, themselves, small-enough-to-be-digestible. Good lord, I need to see that film.

"‘Represent’ is the result of undoubtedly the most innovative piece of crate diggin’ on display on Illmatic. Whilst the majority of hip hop jams are comprised of small chunks of funk, soul and jazz from the ‘60s and ‘70s, DJ Premier eschews this trend for something completely different on the album’s penultimate track. Thief Of Baghdad is a silent film that starred Douglas Fairbanks and featured a soundtrack composed by organist Lee Erwin that was released in 1924. That’s right: 1924. If ever you needed the beat diggin’ capabilities of DJ Premier confirmed, this would surely be the break to do it with."

I can't watch this now BUT I LOVE THE THIEF OF BAGDAD OMG, and the music is a big part of it. OMS.
Oh, this is the other Thief of Bagdad. Haven't seen it. I love the way they achieved the water effects in the beginning of the ELO link though.
