1. Bertolucci's 'The Dreamers'. If you've not seen it, it's definitely worth giving a go - young American in Paris during the riots of the 60s; an incestuous love triangle; beautifully filmed; a decent soundtrack. I liked it. Er. Obviously.
2. The Vintner's Luck by Elizabeth Knox.
3. Tracy Chapman - The Promise. Or, TU VUO'FA L'AMERICANO - Fiorello and the Guy Barker International Quintent.

5. No idea.
6. The Official Ninja Website
7. I put myself between you and gravity. Impossible. (From 'The Vintner's Luck')

Seeing as how you are so much more cultured than me, and I get most of my recommendations from you, this will probably be a list of things you've already seen/done/got t-shirt for... However,

1. Welcome to the jungle 2. The Vesuvius Club - Mark Gattis 3. Hot Fuss - the Killers 4. ...I have no friends... 5. champagne & strawberries or haggis, neeps & tatties! 6. http://www.weebl.jolt.co.uk/ or http://www.singingbanana.com/ 7. not one that slides into everyday conversation, but relevent at the mo' : "If my theory of relativity is proven successful, Germany will claim me as a German and France will declare that I am a citizen of the world. Should my theory prove untrue, France will say that I am a German and Germany will declare that I am a Jew." - A Einstein

Hehehee :) Some of these overlap with some other recommendations i've made but what the hey!

1. The Station Agent. It's so looovely...
2. Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace. It is mental!
3. The Velvet Underground And Nico
4. dailydinosaur
5. Curry. And lots of it.
6. www.freakytrigger.co.uk
7. Oh man the "Now might I do it..." speech from Hamlet. It makes me shiver every time.

your username is simply brilliant! Cats do go miaow and it is miraculous!

[spintrian.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately anything I could recommend I'm sure I've recommended to you already!

[zazuomgwtf.livejournal.com]

give me a yell if you got the tori song I sent you. I should be coming directly from yousendit.com

[i_kender]

The Dreamers! Thank you for reminding me, I really wanted to see this but somehow missed it when it came out, and then promptly forgot all about it, of course.

[ravurian]

You're welcome. It's really rather good, especially the, ahem, uncut version.

[i_kender]

Something Positive is awesome! I just checked it out... thanks, I'll be adding that to feed!

[i_kender]

Thanks, I've just done one for you!

[i_kender]

So true!

[woe2you.livejournal.com]

It's deliciously vicious.

1. Garden State. Or Vera Drake. Or An Angel At My Table. Lost in Translation. Or...or...*slaps self*
2. Tokyo by Mo Haydar
3. Mylo
4. Er, me? I think you know most of my flist anyway...
5. Bread with mango chutney. Now!
6. Frustrated Bunnies are always good...
7. An oldie but so true: "I always wanted to be someone. I should have been more specific."

[i_kender]

Oh, I love Neal Stephenson... I'd have to say Snow Crash is my favourite, but I've read them all. And Dookyweb may be old but you forget I'm new to all this *waves hands around vaguely* so I'd never seen it before. Thanks!

[i_kender]

Flatterer!

Actually, I haven't seen Welcome to the Jungle. I plan on picking up The Vesuvius Club as soon as it becomes cheaper. The Killers... that's strangely psychic of you, as I'm halfway through downloading the album. Good though, isn't it? Cheers!

And you are a strange, strange little man with a warped sense of humour. Don't try and deny it, I have visited those websites! Flagellate yourself with stringy cheese immediately.

[i_kender]

Thanks you! And wanders off to download some new music...

[i_kender]

Garden State is on the list. Vera Drake I don't fancy. And how much do I love the Frustrated bunnies song! Classic. Thanks.
