Non-English Language Films
#11
RE: Non-English Language Films
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

"The greatest deception men suffer is from their own opinions" - Leonardo da Vinci

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)

Before Christmas I was really into K-Dramas, but I haven't watched much lately; I'm not a big movie watcher.

Raise The Red Lantern and The Seventh Seal are favorites. (I've watched Seventh Seal like 20 times; sometimes I put it on when I'm reading just to listen to the language.)



I'll be back when I have the energy to assemble a presentation.



Recharged yet?

Maybe it has something to do with all the Yiddish.

I like the detail from Nighthawks at the Diner. One of my favourite contemporary artworks.
