Child of God & Goodbye Chunky Rice
Both really great, both complete opposites. Child of God is poetic, terrifying, gentle and graphic, its basically the story of a "loveless" Texas Chainsaw Massacre character told from the most compassionate and non-judgmental perspective. It gives us the idea that no matter how damaged or misguided he is, he is still a Child of God. Its a powerful metaphor for any villain or outcast in the world.
Goodbye Chunky Rice is a graphic novel/comic book about the undying bonds between lovers, friends and people in general. Its written from the same author of Blankets, one of my faves. Its a great little read, full of hummingbirds, siamese twins, a mouse and a turtle.
Learning to Love You More is a whimsical art project that lets anyone play along with its demands. Some objectives are: Create a uplifting banner, take a picture under your bed, recreate for favorite childhood movie poster. I love it.
Silent Light & Mouchette
One film is about adultery and divine love in the confines of a conservative religious community. Its a impressionistic and dreamlike work, full of otherworldly images and sounds. It starts off at a slow pace, until tragedy and something very strange and miraculous happens. It gives viewers a glimpse of the magical and mystical in life, with the effect of a fairy tale or biblical story. Its definitely worth watching. The other film is about a poor girl with the worst life ever. Its sad and transcendent at the same time.
Frightened Rabbit
I have to thank my roomate for introducing me to this band. They're Scottish. "While I'm alive, I'll make tiny changes to Earth."
