Babel

Vi nåede lige at se Babel inden den efter 4 dage blev taget af plakaten igen. En virkelig god film af samme instruktør som 21 grams og Love is a Bitch.
Kan stærkt anbefales.

Men are like that!

Choosing A Wife

A man wanted to get married. He was having trouble choosing among three likely candidates. He gives each woman a present of $5,000 and watches to see what they do with the money.
The first does a total make over. She goes to a fancy beauty salon gets
her hair done, new make up and buys several new outfits and dresses up
very nicely for the man. She tells him that she has done this to be more a
attractive for him because she loves him so much.

The man was impressed.

The second goes shopping to buy the man gifts. She gets him a new set of
golf clubs, some new gizmos for his computer, and some expensive clothes.
As she presents these gifts, she tells him that she has spent all the
money on him because she loves him so much.

Again, the man is impressed.

The third invests the money in the stock market. She earns several times
the $5,000. She gives him back his $5,000 and reinvests the remainder in a joint account. She tells him that she wants to save for their future
because she loves him so much.

Obviously, the man was impressed.

The man thought for a long time about what each woman had done with the money he'd given her.




Then, he married the one with the biggest boobs.

007 igen

Vi så den nye James Bond, Casino Royal
Seværdig, men ½ time for lang, selv om der virkelig er action hele vejen igennem.

Om film

Om film har Bunuel udtalt:
I hænderne på en fri ånd er filmen et stortslået og farligt våben.Den er det redskab, som bedst udtrykker drømmens, følelsens og instinktets verden.Det filmiske billedes skabende mekanisme er ved sin funktion det, der af alle menneskelige udtryksmidler mest minder om bevidsthedens arbejder under søvnen.

Desværre vises Bunuels film sjældent mere - bortset naturligvis fra i filmklubber.

Tid

Var til foredrag og debat i Århus om Ulrich Uggerhøjs bog, Den relative virkelighed
Meget inspirerende og veltilrettelagt. Jeg havde heldigvis læst en stor del af bogen inden.
De to timer fløj bogstaveligt afsted!

Læserpanel i Politiken

Nu skal jeg rigtig til at boltre mig i debatten!

Billeder fra Uldum Højskole : Efterlønjazz, november 2006

Jeg havde en spændende uge på Uldum Højskole. Måske vender jeg tilbage. Klik på "Efterlønsjazz" nederst på menulisten.

Flags of Our Fathers

Vi kørte Kristoffer til lufthavnen i Ålborg og benyttede lejligheden til at se Clintens nyeste
Bestemt seværdig.
