Patti Smith 20 July 09

She was wonderful. Her voice was perfect, it seemed stronger than in her early recordings. Good for her.

Che: Part One 13 July 09

Section: article

Categories: Film / dvd

Worth seeing. I started watching the DVD expecting to stop and bring it back to the rental shop, but it was good. Mostly in Spanish as well. Useful as an historical document on the Cuban revolution and the life of Che Guevara.

I look forward to seeing what Che: Part Two is like.

From www.imdb.com:

Sean Penn is stunned pal Benicio Del Toro hasn’t been recognised for his portrayal of revolutionary Che Guevara in biopic Che. Penn singled out Del Toro as one name the film award organisations had overlooked during his Best Actor acceptance speech at the Screen Actors Guild Awards on 25 January, and he’s still struggling to come to terms with the fact the four-hour epic has become the forgotten movie of 2009. →

It was the second time I’ve seen them together and the third time I’ve seen Springsteen (including The Seeger Sessions).

A talented man with a lot of heart.

In Search of Memory 29 June 09

Section: article

Categories: Film / in-a-cinema

I very much like Eric Kandel and his work, and for that reason enjoyed this film.

His research on memory is important for me personally. His insights and discoveries, and that of his colleagues, casts a light on the juncture between psychology, psychotherapy as I know it, biology, and genetics.
