"It Is Nice To Be Important, It Is More Important To Be Nice" (seen in an Amsterdam café, and never forgotten ...)

"I have the simplest tastes. I am always satisfied with the best" (Oscar Wilde)

"While it is true that commercial art is always in danger of ending up as a prostitute, it is equally true that noncommercial art is always in danger of ending up as an old maid… It is [the] requirement of communicability that makes commercial art more vital than noncommercial, and therefore potentially much more effective for better or worse…in modern life the movies are what most other forms of art have ceased to be, not an adornment but a necessity. (Erwin Panofsky, “Style and Medium in the Motion Pictures” - 1947).

"We are all alone, born alone, die alone, and — in spite of True Romance magazines — we shall all someday look back on our lives and see that, in spite of our company, we were alone the whole way. I do not say lonely — at least, not all the time — but essentially, and finally, alone. This is what makes your self-respect so important, and I don’t see how you can respect yourself if you must look in the hearts and minds of others for your happiness.”
(Hunter S. Thompson)

“Writing about music is like dancing about architecture.” (Thelonious Monk)

    Got a chance to watch most of his films a couple of years ago in a film fest near my town. I was really impressed by July Rain, and Two Fyodors (beautiful soviet father-son melodrama). For what I remember Infinity is sort of the summum of all his work. Hope you get a chance to see it. Id love to read your reviews for those films¡.

    Glad you loved July Rain. And thanks for bringing I Am Twenty to my attention a couple of years ago.

    Spring on Zarechnaya Street [Весна на Заречной улице] is also worth a look. More basic in narrative, but just as impressive visually.

    Loved your review of Face/Off and I couldn't agree more! I think that it's the funniest movie that I've ever seen. I've only watched it twice, but both times I was laughing so hard that my sides ached haha!

    And geeze man! You've listened to so much music and watched so many movies.

    Your review of The Edge of the World made me laugh. So did the movie, actually. That grandma sitting on the hill who doesn't say a word and rolls her eyes whenever someone speaks to her.
