Clint Eastwood Invictus

At times a bit hagiographic, but overall a really great film. I think it wasn't easy to weave together so many themes (apartheid, Mandela's story, the unifying power of sport) without losing narrative pace. Eastwood (who I think I saw in the audience during a moment of the film) confirms himself as an excellent storyteller. Regarding the final note of the review, I would add that Eastwood's sports consultant for rugby was Chester Williams, one of the key players of that South African national team. Haloa

A Silver Mt. Zion Kollaps Tradixionales

A must-have album. 13 Blues For Thirteen Moons was a bit ambiguous for me, certainly beautiful, with some "buts" here and there. The dramatic power of Kollap, on the other hand, struck me more. "There is light" is monumental, epic, with splendid arrangements. It's the best, highest, most intense and powerful moment of the album. I really hope I don't miss the Italian tour this year.

Joe Henry Civilians

In recent years, Joe Henry has been working like crazy, producing one album after another, and from time to time he hasn't forgotten to record his always well-crafted and inspired songs. This album was one of the best of 2007. Elegant and balanced, with some peaks (Time is a Lion). The latest Blood from stars also meets expectations; I listened to it a lot last year. However, in my opinion, his masterpiece remains "Scar," closely followed by "Tiny voices." It's a shame that good old Joe has a small following; I suppose that means we'll just cherish him among the few. aLoHA

I started listening to it yesterday, Cash's voice is always an emotion.

Peter Gabriel Scratch My Back

More than the album itself, I found the operation behind its release interesting (cover exchanges on iTunes), a commercial strategy that caters to new ways of consuming music (oriented more towards "tracks" than "albums," according to some). As for the covers, better an imperfect betrayal of the original than a fake mold.

Well dear sirial, the symbolic image should actually keep all kinds of boats at least 100 meters away, unfortunately many boaters do not know it and pass right over it (ps thanks for the interesting links)

Great suggestion, Seb. I heard it a couple of weeks ago and then I also saw the DVD, which I found beautiful. In this era of rampant downloads, there are occasionally albums that you have to have at all costs.

No, I really didn't get it, but the bran is a killer in some ways ;) Anyway, better comments require dedication and a mindset that I don't have (and don't want to have). I could've just added that I remember a Russell Crowe as expressive as a cuttlefish in a pot with peas, so at his peak interpretive values, but it wouldn't have been a great added value. I also remember some nice paintings, but honestly, the boredom dictated by a narrative pace of valium is the most vivid memory that I've retained. Appreciate the honesty, bye.
