  1.  

    been reading a lot lately. got all of these within the last few days. so far have read Slaughterhouse, farewell to arms, Catcher in the rye, and i'll be finishing Murakami today. so far the murakami has taken the longest to get into, but i think it will be the most rewarding. the way the novel reveals its insane passion for life has left me pretty breathless at times. 

    Have you read Hemingway's For Whom the Bells Toll?

  2. For being 2 and a half hours long, the film has very little fat; every scene returned to the theme. The shots are very beautiful and camera movement very elegant. The minimalist opera and EDM balanced each other out, while lending a unique tone. Plus I enjoyed Sorrentino's many references to the great writers, film makers, and poets who came before. At least that is my reaction to how I think I reacted when I watched it almost a week ago. I'll have to watch it again to see what I actually think.
