Red Hot Chili Peppers Live @ Forum Assago, 11.11.11

The memory I hold of them live is chilling: voiceless, indistinct sounds, and people ecstatic for no reason. Maybe they have improved.
Matt Reeves Let Me In - Blood Story
Voto:
I wanted to see it, but it hasn’t been released here. It’s likely that the remake isn’t necessary, adding very little to the original, but from the trailer I saw and the words shared by Hellring, it doesn’t seem like a total flop. It’s obvious that the rating given is regardless of that, to underline the very unpopular commercial operation (understandably).
Robert Altman America Oggi - Short Cuts
Voto:
Wonderful film, and this despite having read Carver's stories beforehand.
Enrico Lando I Soliti Idioti - Il Film
Voto:
It must be a great movie, and by osmosis, I can already feel something important growing inside me. Deep in my gut.
Aki Kaurismäki Miracolo a Le Havre

Thank you very much, I hope you go see it.
Tesla Bust A Nut

This is a hard rock band that I admire a lot. The CD doesn't come close to their peaks, but it's precisely in the intermediate albums that you can tell if a band has talent and is solid. Between the 3 and the 4.
Cormac McCarthy Il Guardiano Del Frutteto
Voto:
This book disappointed me greatly and made me distance myself from McCarthy: not that it isn't well done, but I expected more and found the reading somewhat difficult. Very captivating cover (I bought it for that).
Poker Italia 24 Palinsesto Quotidiano
Voto:
Well, yes, in fact it's a damn awful review and reading it again, I even wrote it very poorly. I don't even know poker: does a flush beat a full house or not? Who knows! Maybe if it had been better articulated and refined, it could have worked as an editorial. What I wanted to say is that I find it absurd and horrifying that a growing number of people waste money and time playing online poker, and I find even more disheartening the sponsorship of this game by a specialized TV channel whose real aim (see sponsors like Lottomatica, Snai, and the like) is not to bring four friends together to play live in a den, but to lure the masses into playing on the computer. That said, it's your business, online poker players, and I'm an idiot for spending 30 minutes of my time writing a review about it. I’m dealing myself two aces: isn’t that the best hand??? :) P.S. 27 COMMENTS ON THIS SMOKING TRASH and 5 "The Way of Tobacco" by Erskine Caldwell that I wrote about a month ago...

I felt the urge to read "The Conscience of Zeno" for the umpteenth time. Thank you.

5-5-5-5-5-5-5-5 for that first paragraph that started with Since I prostrate myself at her venerable feet. Eccccccezzzionale. In fact, a few days ago, I just couldn't sleep because I was seriously wondering, almost tormented by the dreadful doubt, whether I listened to other genres besides prog. I believe that tonight I will be able to fall into the arms of Moira Orfei much more swiftly. I liked the album, but unlike you, I consider it a step back compared to Showbiz and Origin Of Symmetry.
