My favorite music: |
|
Cowboy Junkies |
| comments: Margot Timmins' voice leaves me breathless; the songs are dark and knowing and heartbreaking |
|
Garbage |
| comments: Yes, I have that major crush on Shirley Manson, but who doesn't? The songs are complex, the music compelling |
|
Berlin |
| comments: My favorite 80s dance band! "Sex (I'm a...)" is the premiere dance song (and video) of my clubland days |
|
Bryan Ferry |
| comments: The embodiment of that haunting elegance that always attracts me. His Roxy Music CDs are worth having, too |
|
Marianne Faithfull |
| comments: That voice... And songs like "Running For Our Lives" and "Falling From Grace" and "Times Square" leave me frozen and haunted |
My favorite movies: |
|
Crash |
| comments: Scary, majorly sexy, twisted, incredibly cold and witty, David Cronenberg at his best: the erotica of car crashes |
|
Naked Lunch |
| comments: David Cronenberg again-- a blackly funny rendering of the Wm. S. Burroughs novel. Peter Weller is brilliant. |
|
Kundun |
| comments: Eerie, beautiful, dreamy... The young life of the Dalai Lama. Great soundtrack by Philip Glass |
|
Mulholland Drive |
| comments: Okay-- I already live in this world. David Lynch on a Hollywood full of dwarves, conspiracies, beautiful lesbians, and a shifting reality |
|
The 13th Warrior |
| comments: Okay, yes: I have a weakness for heroic legend. Antonio Banderas in a version of Michael Crichton's "Eaters of the Dead". Great photography, great soundtrack...and a rather good evocation of the Norse idea of the hero. |
My favorite authors: |
|
Mary Renault |
| comments: Brilliantly done novels of Ancient Greece. "The King Must Die" and "The Persian Boy" will both take your breath away. I assign "Last of the Wine" to History classes. |
|
J.G. Ballard |
| comments: Re-defined science fiction. His "Voices of Time" and "The Crystal World" and his Vermilion Sands stories are beautiful, eerie, dark... |
|
Haruki Murakami |
| comments: Hokkaido, invisible sheep, Japanese jazz, a perfect sense of bittersweetness... |
|
Robert Musil |
| comments: "The Man Without Qualities"... Late-Habsburg Vienna, of course: Wien, Wien, nur du allein... |
|
William Gibson |
| comments: Why can't I live in his cities? Or at least date Molly or Cayce...? |
