<h2><em>&#8220;achilles in love&#8221;</em></h2>
<p><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stephen_Dunn">—Stephen Dunn</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/jacksonorway/3658793062/in/photostream/"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-596" title="soft" src="http://angxt.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/3658793062_a59932a26e.jpg?w=480&#038;h=319" alt="" width="480" height="319" /></a></p>
<p>There was no getting to his weakness.<br />
In public, even in  summer, he wore<br />
big boots, specially made for him,<br />
a band of  steel reinforcing each heel.<br />
At home, when he bathed or slept,<br />
he  kept a pistol within reach, loaded.<br />
And because to be invulnerable<br />
is  to be alone, he was alone even when<br />
he was with you. You could sense  it<br />
in the rigidity of his carriage, as if under<br />
his fine-fitting  suits were layers of armor.<br />
Yet everyone loved to see him in action:<br />
While  his enemies were thinking of small<br />
advantages, he only thought end  game.</p>
<p><!-- more -->Then she came along, who seemed to be all<br />
women fused  into one, cheekbones and breasts<br />
evidence that evolution doesn’t  care<br />
about fairness, and a mind so good, well,<br />
it was like his.  You could see his body soften,<br />
and days later, when finally they were  naked,<br />
she instinctively knew what to do-<br />
as smart men do with a  mastectomy’s scar-<br />
kiss his heel before kissing<br />
what he considered  to be his power,<br />
and with a tenderness that made him tremble.</p>
<p>And so Achilles began to live differently.<br />
Both friends and  enemies were astounded<br />
by his willingness to listen, and hesitate<br />
before  responding. Even in victory he’d<br />
walk away without angering a single  god.<br />
He wore sandals now because she liked him in sandals.<br />
He  never felt so exposed, or so open to the world.<br />
You could see in his  face something resembling terror,<br />
but in fact it was love, for which  he would die.</p>

<p><span style="color:#333333;">ah truth.  at least for me. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#333333;">before i sleep, i often think about this hypothetical scenario:  if you were trapped alone in one room/building for the rest of your days, where would you have it be?</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#333333;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#333333;">logistically:  costco.  but not considering survival needs, for me it would have to be some kind of library or bookstore.  that in itself covers a vital need.  other answers i&#8217;ve considered: quentin tarantino&#8217;s home theatre (with his reported million movies), the met museum of art, god why not the louvre?   but a library it would be&#8230;</span></p>

WHEN you are old and grey and full of sleep,<br />
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,<br />
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look<br />
Your eyes had once, and of their shadows deep;<br />
How many loved your moments of glad grace,<br />
And loved your beauty with love false or true,<br />
But one man loved the pilgrim Soul in you,<br />
And loved the sorrows of your changing face;<br />
And bending down beside the glowing bars,<br />
Murmur, a little sadly, how Love fled<br />
And paced upon the mountains overhead<br />
And hid his face amid a crowd of stars. </span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h2><em>“i crave your mouth, your voice, your hair”</em></h2>
<h6><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pablo_Neruda">pablo neruda</a></h6>
<p><a href="http://angxt.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/screen-shot-2010-09-06-at-7-52-34-pm.png"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-544" title="i crave your mouth" src="http://angxt.files.wordpress.com/2010/09/screen-shot-2010-09-06-at-7-52-34-pm.png?w=239&#038;h=222" alt="" width="239" height="222" /></a></p>
<p>I crave your mouth, your voice, your hair.<br />
Silent and starving, I  prowl through the streets.<br />
Bread does not nourish me, dawn disrupts  me, all day<br />
I hunt for the liquid measure of your steps.</p>
<p>I  hunger for your sleek laugh,<br />
your hands the color of a savage  harvest,<br />
hunger for the pale stones of your fingernails,<br />
I want to  eat your skin like a whole almond.</p>
<p><span id="more-543"></span></p>
<p>I want to eat the sunbeam  flaring in your lovely body,<br />
the sovereign nose of your arrogant  face,<br />
I want to eat the fleeting shade of your lashes,</p>
<p>and I  pace around hungry, sniffing the twilight,<br />
hunting for you, for your  hot heart,<br />
like a puma in the barrens of Quitratue.</p>
<p><span style="color:#ffffff;">f<br />
</span></p>
<p>Tengo  hambre de tu boca, de tu voz, de tu pelo<br />
y por las calles voy sin  nutrirme, callado,<br />
no me sostiene el pan, el alba me desquicia,<br />
busco  el sonido líquido de tus pies en el día.</p>
<p>Estoy hambriento de tu  risa resbalada,<br />
de tus manos color de furioso granero,<br />
tengo  hambre de la pálida piedra de tus uñas,<br />
quiero comer tu piel como  una intacta almendra.</p>
<p>Quiero comer el rayo quemado en tu  hermosura,<br />
la nariz soberana del arrogante rostro,<br />
quiero comer  la sombra fugaz de tus pestañas</p>
<p>y hambriento vengo y voy  olfateando el crepúsculo<br />
buscándote, buscando tu corazón caliente<br />
como  un puma en la soledad de Quitratúe.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">———————x———————</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#333333;">i&#8217;ve added a new category to my little niche of the internet here:  words. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#333333;">if you bother to think about it, arent words the most valuable resource and product of mankind?  after all, nothing is truly obliterated until the recorded thoughts, histories, dreams, ideas, observations of those from the past are also gone.  we take it for granted, but there forms an extremely special connection between writer and reader the instant they share words.  an image is communicated, overcoming the barriers of space and time.  just think what incredible power we as humans wield by this ability!<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#333333;">i wish i could express these thoughts in words as effectively as <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steven_Hall">steven hall</a>, and sound as mesmerizing as <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0842770/">tilda swinton</a> saying them:<br />

She has taken a new job in Detroit and to follow her means signing his life over to his soul—sapping career in artificial flavor additives. To stay behind and pursue his newfound passion for fine artisanal goat cheese, is to risk losing her forever. Despite his lack of resources, experience, or basic competency in the field of agriculture, Virgil heads for the hills (literally) with a felonious German baker, a grave— digging hermit, and a tiny white goat named Artois. With Angie awaiting his imminent return and a conference of the International Cheese Consortium just a few months away, he has no choice but to go for broke. Throw away everything he has on a gamble: That, before it is too late, he can craft a cheese that will change the world. A cheese that will buy him a new life. A cheese of destiny.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★★</p>
<p>why: seems quirky, <a href="http://akas.imdb.com/name/nm0327273/">michel gondry</a>-esque, features white goats, he wants a girl named angie, and come on, the guy&#8217;s name is virgil (in a french accent).  what&#8217;s not to like?  the downside: trying to find this in korea&#8230;..</p>

Eduardo Sr., the family patriarch, has decided to name a successor to the reigns of his massive industrial company, surprising everyone by splitting power between his son Tancredi, and grandson Edo. But Edo dreams of opening a restaurant with his friend Antonio, a handsome and talented chef. At the heart of the family is Tancredi’s wife Emma (Tilda Swinton), a Russian immigrant who has adopted the culture of Milan. An adoring and attentive mother, her existence is shocked to the core when she falls quickly and deeply in love with Edo’s friend and partner Antonio, and embarks on a passionate love affair that will change her family forever.&#8221;</span></p>
<p>the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★★</p>
<p>why: i love tilda swinton.  she looks beautiful, exquisite in the trailer.  the setting is italy.  <em>io sono l&#8217;amore</em>, it&#8217;s an interesting title.  what can i say, it just looks gorgeous, all fleeting glances and blurry flowers and stony eyes.. i hope it turns out as stunning as i expect..</p>

<p style="text-align:left;"><img class="alignleft" title="the thorn in the heart" src="http://www.ioncinema.com/old/images/upload/movie_9361_poster.jpg" alt="" width="207" height="274" /><span style="color:#333333;">&#8220;Michel Gondry is a filmmaker known for breaking new ground — be it in the world of commercial advertising, directing music videos for the likes of Bjork and The White Stripes, or helming imaginative features like Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Dave Chapelle’s Block Party, or the upcoming The Green Hornet. Gondry’s newest film, THE THORN IN THE HEART (L&#8217;Epine dans le Coeur), further propels his filmography into the realm of the unvisted with a personal look at the life of Gondry family matriarch, his aunt Suzette Gondry, and her relationship with her son, Jean—Yves. Michel examines Suzette’s years as a schoolteacher and her life in rural France. During the course of filming the documentary, new family stories are unearthed and Michel uses his camera to explore them in a subtle and sensitive way. THE THORN IN THE HEART had its world premiere screening in the official selection at the 2009 Cannes Film Festival.&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★★</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">why:  well for starters, it&#8217;s michel gondry.  michel gondry with a camera in rural france is a lot more exciting than a lot of other directors with machine guns in new york.  and i&#8217;ve always thought that if i were ever to make a movie, it would be amazing to make a documentary featuring my family, but in an abstract, unconventional and loving way.  i love family stories.  thirdly, it&#8217;s in french, i understand it!  amazing.  fourthly, how cool is it to see invisible clothes on little kids?  but mostly, it&#8217;s michel gondry.</p>

A longtime patron of dance in the U.S., Bass arranged for Sy to visit New York and audition for the prestigious School of the American Ballet (SAB). What unfolds is a tentative negotiation between Sy and the world of American ballet and culture—from the serene countryside of Southeast Asia to the halls of SAB, to the stage of the Pacific Northwest Ballet in Seattle. The film follows Sy’s unusual development as a dancer and offers a remarkable behind—the—scenes look into the world of American ballet. At its heart, Dancing Across Borders is an extraordinary story of growth, adaptation, and belonging as well as of the development of talent and the mastery of an art form.&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">why:  i&#8217;m a sucker for dance movies, and that boy is so graceful.  i love how he says, &#8220;like a little duck.&#8221;  it&#8217;s been a while since a good dancing documentary came out, can&#8217;t wait to see it.</p>

A bass guitarist for garage band Sex Bob—omb, the 22—year—old has just met the girl of his dreams&#8230;literally. The only catch to winning Ramona Flowers (Mary Elizabeth Winstead)? Her seven evil exes are coming to kill him. Genre—smashing filmmaker Edgar Wright (Hot Fuzz, Shaun of the Dead) tells the amazing story of one romantic slacker’s quest to power up with love in Scott Pilgrim vs. the World. Scott Pilgrim has never had a problem getting a girlfriend. It’s getting rid of them that proves difficult. From the girl who kicked his heart’s ass—and now is back in town—to the teenage distraction he’s trying to shake when Ramona rollerblades into his world, love hasn’t been easy. He soon discovers, however, his new crush has the most unusual baggage of all: a nefarious league of exes controls her love life and will do whatever it takes to eliminate him as a suitor. As Scott gets closer to Ramona, he must face an increasingly vicious rogues’ gallery from her past—from infamous skateboarders to vegan rock stars and fearsome identical twins. And if he hopes to win his true love, he must vanquish them all before it really is game over.&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">why: what a cool idea.  and the slogan,&#8221;an epic tale of epic epicness&#8221; sounds well, epic-ly moronic but kind of endearing at the same time.  and the fact that <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0447695/">anna kendrick</a> comes out (albeit for 3 seconds in the trailer) and says, &#8220;oh that&#8217;s not that bad, &#8220;.. well anything with anna kendrick is good with me.  and the girl, <span style="text-decoration:line-through;">whoever she is</span> <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0935541/">mary elizabeth winstead</a>, is freaking pretty.  and has a hot voice.  as much as i dislike <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0148418/">michael cera</a>, i will endure the fact that he is the star of an action-ish movie to see these two girls.  who knows, this comedy might actually be funny.  (there are so few genuinely funny movies out there these days!)</p>

The film was a standout selection of the 2009 Cannes, Telluride, Toronto, New York, AFI film festivals, and received awards for Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Actor at the Chicago IFF. In VINCERE, the closely guarded story of Italian dictator Benito Mussolini&#8217;s secret lover and son is revealed in fittingly operatic proportions. Thunderstruck by the young Mussolini&#8217;s charisma, Ida Dalser gives up everything to help champion his revolutionary ideas. When he disappears during World War I and later resurfaces with a new wife, the scorned Dalser and her son are locked away in separate asylums for more than a decade. But Ida will not disappear without a fight….&#8221;</span></p>

Fourteen years before, he was in a brutal car crash on the island of Lanzarote. In the accident, he not only lost his sight, he also lost Lena, the love of his life. This man uses two names: Harry Caine, a playful pseudonym with which he signs his literary works, stories and scripts, and Mateo Blanco, his real name, with which he lives and signs the film he directs. After the accident, Mateo Blanco reduces himself to his pseudonym, Harry Caine. If he can’t direct films he can only survive with the idea that Mateo Blanco died on Lanzarote with his beloved Lena. In the present day, Harry Caine lives thanks to the scripts he writes and to the help he gets from his faithful former production manager, Judit García, and from Diego, her son, his secretary, typist and guide. Since he decided to live and tell stories, Harry is an active, attractive blind man who has developed all his other senses in order to enjoy life, on a basis of irony and self—induced amnesia. He has erased from his biography any trace of his first identity, Mateo Blanco. One night Diego has an accident and Harry takes care of him (his mother, Judit, is out of Madrid and they decide not to tell her anything so as not to alarm her). During the first nights of his convalescence, Diego asks him about the time when he answered to the name of Mateo Blanco, after a moment of astonishment Harry can’t refuse and he tells Diego what happened fourteen years before with the idea of entertaining him, just as a father tells his little child a story so that he’ll fall asleep. The story of Mateo, Lena, Judit and Ernesto Martel is a story of “amour fou”, dominated by fatality, jealously, the abuse of power, treachery and a guilt complex. A moving and terrible story, the most expressive image of which is the photo of two lovers embracing, torn into a thousand pieces.&#8221;</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★★</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#000000;">why:</span> with this new one, penelope cruz has now appeared in four of pedro almodóvar&#8217;s films (<em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118819/">live flesh</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0185125/">all about my mother</a></em>, <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0441909/">volver</a></em>, broken embraces) and i haven&#8217;t seen anything by him yet.  i don&#8217;t know anything about his work, but the trailer itself seems a masterpiece.  the <em>colour</em>&#8230;</p>

<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>the return of <em>wall street</em>:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><em><a href="http://www.wallstreetmoneyneversleeps.com/">wall street: money never sleeps</a></em>, in theatres september 24 2010, directed by <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000231/">oliver stone</a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://angxt.wordpress.com/2010/04/06/on-anticipation/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/lPCSAAtyLW8/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><img class="alignleft" title="wall street: money never sleeps" src="http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/fox/wallstreetmoneyneversleeps/images/poster-xlarge.jpg" alt="" width="185" height="274" /><span style="color:#333333;">&#8220;Michael Douglas is back in his Oscar®—winning role as one of the screen’s most notorious villains, Gordon Gekko. Emerging from a lengthy prison stint, Gekko finds himself on the outside of a world he once dominated. Looking to repair his damaged relationship with his daughter Winnie, Gekko forms an alliance with her fiancé Jacob (Shia LaBeouf). But can Jacob and Winnie really trust the ex—financial titan, whose relentless efforts to redefine himself in a different era have unexpected consequences.&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★★</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">why:  oh yes, does this look goood.  considering it separately from the original <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094291/"><em>wall street</em></a>, which was more than twenty years ago!, it looks revamped and ready to roll.  <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0479471/">shia labeouf</a> paired up with real-life girlfriend/best actress nominee <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1659547/">carey mulligan</a> (who already rocks my world from the trailer, she&#8217;s got presence, no?) and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000140/">michael douglas</a>, commanding as ever.  and have you ever noticed that when british actors do american accents, it sounds like a much more interesting language than when americans speak it?  <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000288/">christian bale</a>&#8216;s <a href="http://currypoptart.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/bale-batman.jpg">batman</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1500155/">robert pattinson</a>&#8216;s <a href="http://www.truetwilight.com/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/twilight.jpg">edward</a>, that girl <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0211087/">emilie de ravin</a> from <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1403981/">remember me</a>, and this girl carey mulligan in the trailer.. british people and american accents make american english sound richer, more creamy or something, and less nonchalant.  but anyway, i digress.  looks good.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">OH and their posters are beautiful; like portrait paintings of the rich and powerful, which, in this context, seems appropriate:</p>

<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>the never-before-seen tennessee williams:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><em><a href="http://www.teardropdiamond.com/">the loss of a teardrop diamond</a></em>, released january 8, 2010, directed by <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0548346/">jodie markell</a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://angxt.wordpress.com/2010/04/06/on-anticipation/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/I-yuZjjuHhY/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><img class="alignleft" title="loss of a teardrop diamond" src="http://trailers.apple.com/trailers/independent/images/thelossofateardropdiamond_l200912141229.jpg" alt="" width="186" height="275" /><span style="color:#333333;">&#8220;Widely considered the most important American playwright of the post-WWII, era, Williams wrote the TEARDROP DIAMOND screenplay at the height of his late-1950’s heyday, amid such classic plays, (which themselves were adapted into classic films), as “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof,” “Suddenly, Last Summer,” “Sweet Bird of Youth,” and “Orpheus Descending.” Set in the Roaring Twenties in the town of Memphis, the film tells the story of Fisher Willow (Howard) a headstrong young heiress who chafes under the constraints of proper Southern society, and who rebels by asking the impoverished but handsome son of her father’s caretaker, Jimmy Dobyne (Evans), to escort her to the major social events of the season. The relationship is purely a business arrangement at the outset, with Fisher paying for Jimmy’s time and attention, but when she discovers that she really loves him, she finds it impossible to re-write the rules and earn the affection she tried to buy. Howard’s ability to evoke the dueling strength and fragility of this quintessential Williams heroine, along with her stunning mastery of his lush, poetic language, firmly establish her as one of the best actresses of her generation, and place her Fisher Willow in a pantheon of performances that includes Vivien Leigh’s Blanche DuBois, Elizabeth Taylor’s Maggie the Cat, Anna Magnani’s Serafina delle Rose, and Geraldine Page’s Alexandra Del Lago.&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="text-align:left;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★★</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">why: the classics are the best.  and though this doesn&#8217;t exactly count as an american classic YET (though its screenwriter is most definitely a legend), it looks promising.  another reason is the pairing up of <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0397171/">bryce dallas howard</a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0262635/">chris evans</a> (aka johnny storm from <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120667/">fantastic four</a></em>).  just judging by the trailer, the chemistry looks good, and howard is ridiculously charming.  chris evans is handsome.  shallow reasons but what else can you tell from a trailer of a movie you&#8217;ve never seen?  besides,  it&#8217;s always nice to see a feisty-rich-girl-from-the-south story.</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8211;</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">and lastly..</p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><strong>the one movie i&#8217;m actually most likely to end up watching:</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:left;"><a href="http://www.diaryofawimpykidmovie.com/"><em>diary of a wimpy kid</em></a>, released march 19 2010, directed by <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0294457/">thor freudenthal</a></p>

<p style="text-align:left;">the i-want-it factor:  ★★★★</p>
<p style="text-align:left;">why:  i have two sisters in primary school.  my mother&#8217;s bought them every single hard-cover copy of these books.  i might as well accept that we&#8217;re going to see it, sooner or later, and might as well look forward to it.  i kind of can&#8217;t wait.  it honestly looks pretty hilarious.   OH and the kid&#8217;s older brother is being played by canadian actor <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm1256602/">devon bostick</a>, who i&#8217;ve been dying to see in the 2009 <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000382/">atom egoyan</a> film, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1074929/"><em>adoration</em></a> (i want it!).</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">it&#8217;s been too long. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">and i&#8217;ve been pretty bad.  this is my atonement:  today i will write about &#8220;<span style="color:#333333;">un film che brilla come un <span style="color:#999999;">diamante</span></span>.&#8221;*</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">*quoting myself, but uh, in italian :)  &#8230;this would be one of my favourite films, if i ever (god-forbid) had to choose.  the incredibly endearing, very sweet, very romantic:<br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;"><em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095765/">nuovo cinema paradiso</a></em>, 1988, directed by <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0868153/">giuseppe tornatore</a>.<img class="aligncenter" title="cinema paradiso" src="http://thoughtsofmarconsi.files.wordpress.com/2010/01/cinema_paradiso2.jpg?w=496&#038;h=755" alt="" width="496" height="755" /></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;"><em>cinema paradiso</em> is a gem; for me, a movie whose existence and brilliance was so obvious for as long as i could remember (this is to me, what <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0059742/"><em>the sound of music</em></a> or <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0083866/"><em>e.t.</em></a> is for a lot of people), that i only recently realized that many people haven&#8217;t seen it.  it&#8217;s a funny and unabashedly sweet celebration of friendship, love, childhood, and the magic of movies.  it also features a beautiful score by the always-incredible <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001553/">ennio morricone</a>.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;"><span id="more-368"></span></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinema_Paradiso">wikipedia</a> summary, because i hate summarizing: <span style="color:#333333;">&#8220;Told in flashback, it tells the story of the return to his native Sicilian village of a successful film director Salvatore (Toto) for the funeral of his old friend Alfredo, who was the projectionist at the local &#8220;Cinema Paradiso&#8221;. Ultimately, Alfredo serves as a wise father figure to his young friend who only wishes the best to see him succeed, even if it means breaking his heart in the process.&#8221;</span> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">here is a (highly-recommended) taste of this movie, featuring the theme song sung by soprano <a href="http://www.josumi.com/">sumi jo</a>:</span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="color:#3333ff;"><span style="text-align:center; display: block;"><a href="http://angxt.wordpress.com/2010/04/03/on-nuovo-cinema-paradiso/"><img src="http://img.youtube.com/vi/f4j1EAwo-08/2.jpg" alt="" /></a></span><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">one summer when i was little, maybe eight or nine years old, i went on a full tour with my aunt, who actually happens to be the singer i mentioned above. </span></p>
<div class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 313px"><span style="color:#3333ff;"><img title="Picture 8" src="http://angxt.files.wordpress.com/2010/04/picture-8.png?w=303&#038;h=225" alt="" width="303" height="225" /></span><p class="wp-caption-text">sumi jo, coloratura soprano extraordinaire and my aunt.</p></div>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;"><img class="alignnone" title="faa" src="http://wordmunger.com/images/sumijo1.jpg" alt="" width="125" height="230" /></span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">she was doing a film-music based concert series in korea, and was singing a program of amazingly beautiful songs night after night while i got to watch adoringly from the first row or from backstage.  one night, the concert was at an outdoor venue, which basically means the five thousand something people in the audience sat on this immense green lawn (more like a meadow, really) facing a huge stage holding the full orchestra, lights, visuals, the whole shebang, and soprano sumi jo glittering in the middle of it all.  the stage was protected by an overhanging canopy, but the entire audience was just sitting under the stars, open to the sky.  i remember it was a beautiful night, a warm, sleepy, magical night, and the first half of the concert went by like a dream.  but after the intermission was this song, the love theme from <em>cinema paradiso</em> that plays in the video above.  and as the tinkling introduction began and the flutes began to peep, this soft summer rain suddenly started coming down on the audience.  i was in the audience with my father, who, as the producer of the show, was naturally on tenterhooks.  the amazing thing was, the audience was too spellbound by the song and the singer that instead of fleeing for shelter, everybody settled in and listened to the song under the rain.  as for myself, the rain, my aunt&#8217;s voice, the song, and the scenes from the film that served as visuals in the background made this an altogether extraordinary experience. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">and so that is the rather long and nostalgic backstory to why i love this film so much.  even if it wasn&#8217;t as good as it absolutely, completely is, it still holds a rather soft spot in my heart just for that night. </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">and the music in this film really is perfection, no surprise there, seeing that the score is by the completely brilliant ennio morricone (you might know him from his work in <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0060196/"><em>the good, the bad and the ugly</em></a> (1966) and for <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0091530/"><em>the mission</em></a> (1986) &#8212; remember &#8220;gabriel&#8217;s oboe&#8221;?  very beautiful.) </span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="color:#3333ff;"><img class="aligncenter" title="ennio score" src="http://www.popsdiscos.com.br/images/uploads/CINEMA%20PARADISO%20CINEMA%20PARADISO.jpg" alt="" width="356" height="352" /> </span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">but i have to admit, the one thing that is better than  the music of <em>cinema</em> is the chemistry. <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0143150/">salvatore cascio</a> and the late <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0634159/bio">philippe noiret</a> (who played the young toto and his mentor alfredo, respectively) were meant to be onscreen together.  the story of a fatherless boy finding a father and friend in a childless old man, and ultimately sharing his passion for cinema is winning and pure-hearted.  not to mention completely adorable to watch a tiny italian kid running circles around an old st. bernard of a man.</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;"><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">you know, i&#8217;ve been looking up images for this post, and i can&#8217;t help noticing how awesome all of the posters for this movie are.  seriously, each one is extremely attractive in a vintage-y way.  and really more importantly, each one, though different, manages to capture the spirit of the film.<br />
</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">really, truly, i ask you to see this film not only because i guarantee you&#8217;ll definitely feel a degree more cultured having seen </span></p>
<h2><span style="color:#3333ff;"><em>nuovo cinema paradiso</em> by giuseppe tornatore</span></h2>
<p><span style="color:#3333ff;">but because it is genuinely a feel-good, fuzzy fondness kind of movie.  its simplicity, the childlike emotion with which it tells its story is sure to win you over and make you fall in love with toto and alfredo and of course, <em>la magia del cinema</em>.</span></p>
