Man is a rope, tied between beast and over-man—a rope over an abyss ... what is great in man is that he is a bridge and not an end." - Friedrich Nietzsche

J'ai tué ma mère (I Killed My Mother) - Xavier Dolan

If you haven't already seen this movie, go see it now. I discovered it last night, and I think it's rather unique, while so incredibly universal at the same time.



















"All women become like their mothers. That is their tragedy. No man does. That's his." ~ Oscar Wilde

“My mother had a great deal of trouble with me, but I think she enjoyed it.” ~ Mark Twain

“Mothers are fonder than fathers of their children because they are more certain they are their own.” ~ Aristotle

Amazing Grace - Nana Mouskouri

This video was shot for a UK programme I worked on a few years ago, in Athens. It was my honour and pleasure to meet & work with Nana Mouskouri. Most of what I did on the shoot was get her water, and hold an umbrella over her face when the camera wasn't rolling to protect her from the scorching Athenian sun. And I've never taken any job more seriously than that.

I'm not even going to speak about her beautiful voice. You can be your own judge. However, given her international stardom, she is the sweetest, most unpretentious, elegant, down-to-earth, humble, professional person I've met in my whole life. 

 I guess that explains a lot :-)


Morning Song - Cherokee

Get Happy - Judy Garland
