Curare

great animations+good music, a piece to be admired. the stockholm based director pistachios created this music video for bogdan irkük a.k.a. BULGARI’s track “curare” from the record label rollerboys recordings. pistachios did the animation, editing and compositing himself, while tomas nilsson did the illustrations and jonas tyhörnqvist the character molding. these swedes know what it’s all about. enjoy! by kv

We heart Paris

sofia coppola chose to debut her commercial career with an ad for dior’s fragrance, miss dior cherie. she shot model maryna linchuk out and about in paris, and this clip sure makes us long for summer in the city, flirty dresses and french desserts. by kv

the genius of Terry Gilliam : Brazil!

must see film for any sci-fi lover. next to kubrick’s more serious and stylistic 2001: a space odyssey, this is by far my most favorite sci-fi film. the current situation in the world, especially under the past eight years, makes this film a more than ever, important must see. by dd

where are you stranger?

just heard that our native-godfather of grand words. mr. leonard cohen, is back, and after 15 years will perform at the beacon theater in new york city on february 19th, 2009. now of course as much as i love his words… and even his music, i simply can’t bare to attend any show that is anywhere larger than the old knitting factory. in a strange way it’s like being with 500 strangers, making love to what you felt was always just yours. it’s selfish i know, but great music is like that. that said i’m sure it will be amazing, so get those tickets before pp buys them all. by dd
