Forever Fred Astaire

心情不好的时候，居然放上了这样一段视频，估计是物极必反吧。。。

Unexpected calm

恍如一世

这是一个七日，重复反复颠覆

“你是我唱到喉咙沙哑 未完成的歌
何必再听过之后冷冷笑我”
—— XZQ《未完成的歌》

忆

后悔。

奇怪，以往总是第一时间冲出口的那个愿望却在那一刻哽咽在喉。结果被人捷足先登，说了出来。我失去了impress任何人的机会，却被他人impress。

最近回想起来，我怕是爱上了某人的那一句愿望，爱上了某人描述这个愿望时的语气，在记忆中如纱般滑过肌肤的柔。

可谁又能时刻记起...

Barbican

终于去到了传说中的Barbican，朝拜了那个神圣的地方。下决心还是11月要去看Ulysses, 于是被人说我geeky...可这正是电影的精妙之处。

p.s.:前天看了Billy Wilder的 The Apartment ——是楼下那人自称的 favorite (当然不知道有没有Carlsberg作祟的成分)。不过确实是一部很sweet的电影，里面的男主人公也的确是我见过的one of the sweetest boys.

最近很想看的电影导演或演员的作品摘录如下：
Jacques Demy
Afred Astair
The Hungarian Cinema

喜欢

喜欢上一个认识六小时的人；
喜欢上这个相见却不相识一年的人；
喜欢上这个将永不相见的人。

Auld Lang Syne for "The Apartment" (1960)

Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and never brought to mind ?
Should old acquaintance be forgot,
and old lang syne ?

CHORUS:
For auld lang syne, my dear,
for auld lang syne,
we'll take a cup of kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

And surely you’ll buy your pint cup !
and surely I’ll buy mine !
And we'll take a cup o’ kindness yet,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have run about the slopes,
and picked the daisies fine ;
But we’ve wandered many a weary foot,
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

We two have paddled in the stream,
from morning sun till dine† ;
But seas between us broad have roared
since auld lang syne.

CHORUS

And there’s a hand my trusty friend !
And give us a hand o’ thine !
And we’ll take a right good-will draught,
for auld lang syne.

CHORUS

On

The theme of this upcoming week: waiting...

before the project kicks off!

A film I hope to screen for CITY EYE, should the project be funded.
fingers crossed!
