And when he calls, he calls for me and not for you

I opened my question box on my socials and picked out some of my favourites:

Read on dolls.........



1. "What was the last movie that really moved you / favourite movies?"

Ummmmmm ....... I suppose the last film that really 'moved ' me was Last Days [2005] dir. Gus Van Sant - the reviews can be quite mixed, but I really like this film.

Answering the second half of this question - here are some other favourites: 

The First Night [1958] dir. Georges Franju

Bed and Board [1970] dir. Francois Truffaut

Naked [1993] dir. Mike Leigh

Circle of Love [1964] dir. Roger Vadim

Une Femme Coquette [1955] dir. Jean-Luc Godard

The Blue Lagoon [1980] dir. Randal Kleiser - peachy cherubs.

Along The Coast [1958] dir. Agnes Varda

Nausucaa [1971] dir. Agnes Varda

Bonjour Tristesse [1958] dir. Otto Preminger - I've read the book about five or six times and the film is almost as good!

Christiane F. [1981] dir. Uli Edel - quite relatable .. not that I've ever been addicted to anything as dramatic as heroin [or anything, for that matter] but I'm sure you understand what I mean

Hold Me While I'm Naked [1966] dir. George Kuchar

The First Time [1982] dir. Noel Nosseck

Love Is My Profession [1958] dir. Claude Autant-Lara

The Babysitter [1995] dir. Guy Ferland - for lovers of Alicia Silverstone and wonderful coloured tile bathrooms

Candy [1968] dir. Christian Marquand - do you know how scary it is to be watching a cutesy film and then Ringo Starr pops up? 

2. "Do you have any Celebrity crushes?"

I don't like talking about embarrassing stuff online!


3. "Do you prefer to speak or listen?"

Listen.

4. "Biggest red flags?"

Bad liars aren't cute .. it means they're stupid.

5. "Do you collect anything?"

Not currently. I don't have much money for silly trinkets right and what little I do have - I'm saving for when I move out. Otherwise, I have lots of vintage magazines, CDs, vinyl, books and clothes. 

Does that count?

6. "Favourite song / favourite band / favourite singer?"

Favourite song: Blue Suede Shoes by Elvis Presley 

Favourite bands: The Velvet Underground, Nirvana, Hole, Oasis, Cream, Mazzy Star, Margaritas Podridas, Led Zeppelin, Iron Maiden, The Charlatans, Cheap Trick, The Doors, The Beatles, Metallica, The Smiths, The Cardigans, Mudhoney & more .. 

Favourite singers: Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Brigitte Bardot, Leonard Cohen, Morrissey, David Bowie, Eric Clapton, Lana Del Rey .. again, I know there's a lot more but my brain is totally blanking right now. Ha.

7. "Do you like Nirvana?"

Yes .. yes .. yes .. yes .. yes .. yes. Yes. Oui !!!!!!!!

I have all of their CD albums and CD singles.

8. "What is your zodiac sign?"

Aries. Whatever that means.

9. "How is life?"

Exciting. I have so many ideas and not enough time in my day.

I am motivated

Bad morning space witches! I am finally writing on this dumb blog again. I want to run around somewhere warm and fun .. but I am feeling so cold and tired and deflated right now.  So, I think I will just stare at my cluttered walls and frown like a loser.  What have I lost? My drive? I just don't know. Yesterday, I finally watched  Renaldo and Clara  [1978] and it was four tiresome hours long. Don't get me wrong, I really loved the music, but I think it should have been cut down. Very indie, very ugly. Current media recs: Song- [1985] ' Rock Me Amadeus ' by Falco [I bought the single in a charity shop because I thought the cover was lovely .. but I also quite like the song] Book- [1913] ' Pygmalion ' by Bernard Shaw [A great play about idealism and social class] Film- [2007] ' Control ' dir. Anton Corbijn [Ian Curtis biopic - Peter Hook said it was 'too accurate'] - frances

My riches can't buy everything - moving out, autumn thoughts & packing list

Image
My ~ big ~ move has now been pushed back to January. Well .. technically December, but I say January because it sounds better. To me.  I still don't know what I'm going to pack. I feel as if my wardrobe will never satisfy me. Each time I think about it, I'm like: I just need one more of this .. something like this .. this but in a different colour .. this type of dress with some embroidery .. this type of top with no embroidery. Oh well. At least I've started making clothes for myself again.  I can save a lot of money this way. It will be so satisfying to pack my bags and leave. To actually leave!  I feel as though I have been blessed.  My skin feels soft. I also have some thoughts about autumn. I've been wearing lots of pastel colours throughout the summer and I'll most likely go back to my usual brown, blue and red colour palette when the weather gets colder. Speaking of the heatwave .. I think it's finally over.  I wore my new fox fur coat today. For the...
