Kevin Costner Balla Coi Lupi
Voto:
Magniloquent and politically correct like any self-respecting Hollywood blockbuster, yet despite everything, it remains enjoyable thanks to Kostner's unexpected narrative ability, which miraculously makes the film flow smoothly despite its excessive length.
Michael Haneke La Pianista
Voto:
I don't know if the movie is better than the book. The reader/viewer becomes a sort of voyeur into the behind-the-scenes of what lies hidden behind "normal" people.
MC5 Kick Out The Jams
Voto:
Archetype of hard-rock fluff.
Grateful Dead Aoxomoxoa

They really aren't for me.
Red Crayola The Parable of Arable Land
Voto:
A bold album that stands out significantly from the usual sounds of the era. Great sound exploration, although at times it shows a bit of prolixity and not all vocal passages are irresistible. In any case, one of the 60s albums that I appreciate the most.
Peter Murphy Peter Murphy live@Bologna - ex Ruvido 08/07/2005

I saw him last night, he showed up in a leather jacket with a feathered collar that was "very glam" and he strutted on stage like a seasoned performer with an irony that few recognize. At 52 years old, he truly had energy to spare; sufism and Turkey must have done him good. Unfortunately, I also had to notice significant acoustic issues, especially with the more "intense" tracks that drowned out the vocals, which, at least, were splendid in the less saturated songs. I can say I witnessed a really great concert, even though the audience's longed-for Bauhaus songs were only two (one of which was from the latest reunion album), and I personally have never followed or appreciated Murphy as a solo artist much. The covers of Lennon ("We will All Shine On"), Joy Division ("Transmission"), and Bowie ("Ziggy Stardust" and "Space Oddity," the latter performed while lying down!) were particularly successful.
Michele Santoro Annozero
Voto:
The episode last night about the whores was really trash, Santoro is at an all-time low, it felt like an episode of "Verissimo."
David Cronenberg A History Of Violence
Voto:
Movies with such a memorable ending that I can't remember it anymore.
The Byrds Younger Than Yesterday
Voto:
Despite hating country influences and the insulin I have to use every time I listen to a 60s pop record, I strangely like this work. The songwriting is lean (melody yes, but without ostentatious choruses in the Beatles style) and is enriched by original instrumental passages. It's only Pop but I like it.
