The reason why am am posting about this is closely related to my interactions with Slovene people. I had the chance of some interesting discussions with middle-age people that have a successful career and, contrary to some hasty thoughts, they are also managing a balanced life.<br /><br />Consequently, I've seen in the past weeks two movies that deal with this theme: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0085809/"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">Koyaanisqatsi</span></a> and <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0445336/"><span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">You, the living</span></a>. If the first one is a harder to digest documentary with and obsessive musical theme, <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">You, the living</span> is powerful, funny and touching. The latter one, a must see for everyone that apreciates European cinema.<br /><br /><object width="400" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WOwpd2I_4mo&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/WOwpd2I_4mo&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="400" height="344"></embed></object><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3793517851074092982-7641786579983638772?l=adriandobre.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Adi Dobrehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17444336435259475535noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793517851074092982.post-58667562439850449492009-02-19T13:28:00.000-08:002009-02-20T12:55:42.020-08:00<div id="ShelfariWidget87340"><a href='http://www.shelfari.com/'>Shelfari: Book reviews on your book blog</a><script src="http://www.shelfari.com/ws/87340/widget.js" type="text/javascript" language="javascript"></script><noscript><p>Find new <a href="http://www.shelfari.com/books">books</a> and literate friends with Shelfari, the online <a href="http://www.shelfari.com/">book club</a>.</p></noscript></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3793517851074092982-5866756243985044949?l=adriandobre.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Adi Dobrehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17444336435259475535noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3793517851074092982.post-33000580097373134042009-02-15T06:17:00.000-08:002009-02-19T12:56:04.962-08:00The flashback I had today was about the days without full-time-non-stop internet connection. I remember seeing cool videos on VH1 and then seeing them again in maybe more than one year. The sensation was thrilling. All things stopped... What triggered this sensation was a movie I saw twice in my childhood...
