Come back

Where is your avatar from? Her glasses are fantastic, totally wish I could pull off something like that +_+

Have you seen also [I]The Silence[/I] by Bergman?

Oh dear, what went wrong in Hollywood and Las Vegas?

Also, sorry, what I meant in that last question was your opinion on the Romantics and Impressionist?

Ah, Saint-Saents. I really enjoy his pieces. Fascinating elements in his music.

I do think that it has to do with their region. However, Chopin, although from Central/Eastern Europe, sounds still kind of Western. Wilder, more Eastern classical music you can find in Dvorak, Rimsky-Korsakov, Janacek and a little known Croatian one that my friend told me about called Jakov Gotovak (or something like that).

It's really odd, listen to this:

Also, I'm interested in what you think of the Impressionist or Romantic, as it were, composers. Composers like Debussy, Ravel, Faure, Saint-Saens, Satie, Franck etc.

omg that is sooooo cute lol

Eh, not true. I equally love symphonic, piano and chamber music. Listen to this:
Franz Schubert

Ah, I like Glass quite a lot. In a way, he reminds me of Satie. Satie's extremely simple and minimalist, yet deep in many ways possible. He also has a great personality, judging by his biography.

The YouTube link didn't work. You do this

You're welcome. I enjoy talking with you too.

Happy birthday, Eden! What did you do?

Happy birthday!

Happy birthday!

yea i noticed that too with the music lol. same with tv stars.

At least I had a few close friends who accepted me.

Instead of punk and goth, I'm more into jazz and classical.

It was different. There was one punk guy and he was just ignored. I was far too different for the conformist people at my school. I was too weird. I was the guy who was considered gay, a girl, fluffy haired retard, insane. Fortunately, I mostly ignored that, and the music, literature and art that I loved helped me get through.

my grandparents were pagan at one time. when it came time for me o have my dedication at 12 hey immediately went to catholicism. luckily i have the family grimoires lol. yea i can see why its hard to find a raised pagan, not many still out there lol. dont mean to make us look like a dying breed lol.

Your post on mainstream was fantastic.

Just exactly what I thought.

What happened to eccentricism?!

As a young teenager, I was bombarded by mainstream culture and it made me [COLOR="Lime"][I]sick[/I][/COLOR].

I was bullied and beaten up for liking classical music, art, reading and history and being asexual. Thank goodness these days are gone.

I feel the same way you do.

hey its nice to see you in my theory. i was raised pagan as well and its nice to meet fellow kin here lol.

No. I should. Though I'll probably post less on ZU, now. I've got to study.
I'll definitely look at it!

Good! I especially recommend the first three.

Was that art house enough for you? They are good movies but they are not independent, I'm afraid.

Here goes:
[I]Tale of Tales[/I], Yuri Norstein (Russia)
[I]The Secret of Kells[/I], Tomm Moore and Nora Twomey (Ireland, Belgium and France)
[I]Belleville Rendez-vous[/I], Sylvain Chomet (Canada, UK, Belgium and France)
[I]The Third Man[/I], Carol Reed (UK)
[I]Fanny och Alexander[/I], Ingmar Bergman (Sweden)
[I]'Ko to tamo peva[/I], Slobodan Sijan (Yugoslavia)
[I]Monty Python's Life of Brian[/I], Terry Jones (UK)
[I]Porco Rosso[/I], Hayao Miyazaki (Japan)
[I]London: The Modern Babylon[/I], Julian Temple (UK)
[I]Teen Kanya[/I], Satyajit Ray (India)

Perhaps that was a bit too much.

I can recommend you lots of others, if you like.

Well, it's not about anything, really. It's a series of sequences of everyday life turning to surreal ways. It's a silent film made in 1929 in the Soviet Union. I thought you would be interested since you like surrealism and old films, I think. You can find it on the web.

Have you seen [I]Man with a Movie Camera[/I]?

Haha. Plus it's the only one with a female main character... that's a definite plus in my book.
