eclectic: rock, pop, country, goth, punk, power and lovely irish ballads. current heart breaker is the mark knopfler and emmylou harris duet 'beyond my wildest dreams'.
it's a director's medium: woody allen (manhattan, broadway danny rose, hannah and her sisters, annie hall, sleeper), billy wilder (double indemnity, sunset boulevard, ace in the hole, sabrina, stalag 17, the lost weekend, some like it hot, the apartment), orson welles (citizen kane, magnificent ambersons, othello, touch of evil), fellini (la strada, la dolce vita, satyricon, 8 1/2, juliet of the spirits), stanley kubrick (paths of glory, lolita, dr. strangelove, 2001: a space odyssey, a clockwork orange, the shining), the coen brothers (blood simple, raising arizona, fargo), mike figgis (leaving las vegas), paul haggis (crash, million dollar baby-screenplay, EZ streets), curtis hanson (L.A. confidential, wonder boys), david lean (brief encounter, bridge on the river kwai, lawrence of arabia, doctor zhivago), spike lee (she's gotta have it, do the right thing, he got game), sergei eisenstein (potemkin), luis bunuel (un chien anadalou, los olvidados, that obscure object of desire)--don't get me started. i feel like i'm back in film school at UCLA.
i love film. TV sets play first run movies on cable and on demand. "weeds" on showtime kicks butt big time. also: news and sports and music. on going: bill maher, john stewart, chris matthews' hardball. enjoying new (and last) season of the sopranos.
