	Trickster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		In the study of mythology and religion, a trickster is a god, goddess, spirit or human who breaks the rules of the gods or nature, sometimes maliciously (for example, Loki) but usually with ultimately positive effects.
		In many North American Indian mythologies, the coyote spirit stole fire from the gods (or stars or sun) and is more of a trickster than a culture hero.

		Crows are notoriously difficult to trap and band for study, and have been frustrating ornithologists for decades.
		Young adult crows eventually break away and establish nests and territories of their own, but it is not uncommon for those adult birds to fly in suddenly on an afternoon, say, for a visit with Mom and Dad that can last a few hours or several days.
		And although crows mate for life, an adult crow will return to the parental home if a mate dies or its nest is unsuccessful, that is, if its eggs are eaten by raccoons or squirrels, or its fledglings are picked off by owls or hawks.

	Ted Hughes and Crow
		Crow comes complete with all the mythological and folk-loric accretions which crows have gathered through their long existence, and, of course, all the natural characteristics of the crow species.
		Crow was subjected to teaching and to tests, he was meant to learn humanity and wholeness, to develop a soul, but only in poems published in a later poetic sequence (Cave Birds) did he achieve real progress on his quest.
		Crow, however, is a very modern version of the Trickster Cycle fitting well with the surrealist and absurd sentiments of other twentieth century writers such as Kafka; of artists such as Francis Bacon; and of some of the Eastern European Poets whose works Hughes has helped to make available in translation.

		Robert Graves wrote that the word Cronos and the god may have actually meant "crow," but once again it could just be a result of confusion with the similar-sounding words for crow (Latin "cornix" or Greek "corone").
		Crows were sometimes associated with fertility figures in other cultures, but that doesn't necessarily prove anything.
		Also, crows could be associated with death (by going after corpses) as well as harvest (by going after grain).

	Myths about crows tell tales of happiness, woe
		Crows have long been associated with death in many cultures, because they often could be found feeding on animal and human remains at battlefields or cemeteries.
		And while such birds as swallows and storks are welcomed as signs of spring or childbirth, a gathering of crows is sometimes called a "murder," stemming from yet another myth that says crows will sit in judgment of their own and then kill them.
		According to Greek mythology, the raven was originally a beautiful, silver-white bird, until it had the misfortune to tell Apollo that his human lover, Coronis, had rejected him for a mere man. Apollo turned the bird's feathers fl.

		The concept of ravens and crows in mythology and literature is, in and of itself, nothing new.
		In essence, Crow is a symbol of love, pleasure, and life, yet it is also a force or pain, death, and disorder.
		It was the skeleton of Death, in the guise of a 1920's gangster, that violently snaps Eric from his daydreams of Shelly and forces the crow familiar to remind Eric of his mission (O’Barr 49-52, 93-97).

		Whilst I understand that to set up the back story and mythology for the following episodes it was necessary to tell the audience how it happened, but this film only serves to cheapen the original.
		If only they had tried to tell the story and mythology in a different way, then I think this pilot episode would have been much more enjoyable and the series would have lasted a lot longer than it did.
		Also, as the series progresses it brings in more of the Crow mythology that was left out of the film, like the Skull Cowboy.

	FILM REVIEW -- `Crow' Sequel Never Takes Off / Revenge fantasy a gothic mess with some decent music
		For all its hyped-up camera work, slam-bang close-ups, gothic urbanscapes and resurrection/revenge mythology, ``The Crow: City of Angels'' is a load of bunk.
		He wears the basic Crow Kabuki makeup, and he has to periodically collapse tearfully under the weight of his grief as he mentally revisits his and Danny's deaths via a series of dopey fl- and-green flashbacks.
		Music is the only saving grace of ``The Crow: City of Angels.'' Bands on the soundtrack include the Deftones, Hole, the Toadies, White Zombie, Iggy Pop, Bush, Above the Law, Seven Mary Three, Pet and Linda Perry featuring Grace Slick.

	IGN: IGN FilmForce Exclusive: First Look at The Crow: Lazarus Screenplay
		What do you do when the last movie in your franchise was so under appreciated by its studio that they virtually abandoned it? If you're Ed Pressman and Jeff Most, you make another sequel and look for a distributor that will treat your product better than Dimension Films.
		It could and probably would have easily been any other culture if it weren't for the casting of rapper DMX and the producer's desire for a hardcore rap / hip hop soundtrack, which is where the film is bound to make its money.
		It would be good to see a decent treatment of The Crow again but we may have to wait for the rumored television series revival for that. The film currently has no distributor or projected release date but according to some reports, may be ready for release by late in 2001.
