Ageless/Timeless

The trailer for Where the Wild Things Are looks really cool. I wasn’t even a big fan of the book as a child. I didn’t actively dislike it, but it didn’t play that big a role for me. I was raised more on Janosch, Astrid Lindgren and Erich Kästner for that matter. Anyway. It took […]

Holy Crap, My Subconscious Works in Mysterious Ways

Yesterday evening we watched Aviator and I was confused more or less the whole time because a) I couldn’t decide whether I liked Cate Blanchett as Katherine Hepburn and b) I couldn’t shake the feeling that Cate Blanchett looked about ten years older than Leonardo DiCaprio which kind of ruined the whole Hughes/Hepburn relationship for […]

William Mapother is Stalking Me, Pt. 2

For the second time now I recognized William Mapother in his less than 10 seconds appearance in a major movie. At least in „Minority Report“ he had something to say (as far as I remember, that is). In „Vanilla Sky“ he’s just That One Guy In A Club That Sits Next To Penelope Cruz And […]

I Need To Get To Know My Relatives

Adding To Desaster

I will never ever be able to reduce my Amazon wishlist1 to less that 170 items. Which isn’t a bad thing per se, because that basically means I haven’t run out of ideas for new books, DVDs and music. Plus, I never have to spend much time to find something new to read since my […]

Once More With Feeling

There are a few, very few, movies that I found I enjoy more every time I watch them. Actually, there might only be two, and one of them I have only seen twice up to now, but the experience struck me as strange, so here it will be mentioned nevertheless. The first one and probably […]

First Mix Arrived, Now Humming

Before I even got the chance to mail out my mixes to everybody who asked for one (my swap group excluded) srah’s mix got here today. So I learned where Juliana Werding stole the melody to „Am Tag als Conny Kramer starb“ from and that I already knew „L’été Indien “ (probably from high school […]
