"Thoughtfully observing the intimacy that arises from human interactions—a glance, a word of comfort—demonstrates that benevolence and humanity still exist, which is nothing short of miraculous in the midst of war" #Viennale
DEAR BEAUTIFUL BELOVED: buff.ly/2QMeUS7
grad noch bei der #viennale, jetzt auf #netflix: laura poitras' porträt des aufdeckerjournalisten sy hersh hat mir sehr getaugt und mich sehr zum nachdenken gebracht. hab hier für @derstandard.at was geschrieben www.derstandard.at/story/300000...
Screenshot of my latest activity on letterboxd: The first image is the movie poster of “die my love”. It shows a close-up of a Jennifer Lawrence with blonde curly hair, and a distressed expression. The text "DIE MY LOVE" is superimposed over the image in white block letters. The second image features a red colored close-up of hands intertwined, with the word "ALPHA" in white block letters below. The third image depicts a dark, almost black background with a single green stem with a bud on it. A white text string is visible, which reads "¡CAIGAN LAS ROSAS BLANCAS!". The fourth and final image is the movie poster of ALPHA again.

Late Fame hat mir gefallen, und das Gespräch nach dem Film mit dem Regisseur und Willem Dafoe ebenso.
Der Kerl neben mir, der offenkundig gezwungen war, seine Eltern zu begleiten, sitzt aber hoffentlich nie wieder in meiner Nähe.
