Orchids


I have just read my friend, Eva's new blog entry, and this is so cool, i am sitting on the terace all day too, just like she, on the balcony. I guess we both enjoy the warm sunny days after the rain. Same enjoy, in different countries(but not too far from each other).
I am trying to concenrate on the cognitiv film theory with more and less success. I just fed my cat, and im gonna play with her cute baby cats later. Probably after running. Yes i am still doing it, i don't count anymore the days, i just feel in my legs. But it's nice anyway to feel the result of it.
There are two big bowls of strawberry in front if me, gosh how i love it. Strawberry is the prettiest fruit in my eyes. As orchids are the sexiest flowers on the earth. There are so many kind of them, each has so unique form and colours. I read in a book that there were/are so obsessed colletors, who went to the jungle just to find a special type of orchid, even they died in the jungle because of their passion. There is a really amazing one called the ghost orchid. Maybe they are really just ghosts, because it's hard to find them(according to the book i read). From a point of view of course it seems to be madness but on the other hand it's really great to have such a passion. Well fortunately i don't have to go to jungles to watch a film.
I had orchids, two or three times,but it's so hard to take care of them, however i tried everything. But i think they don't like this dry Middle-European weather. But if i pass by a flowerist i always stop to take a look on the orchids,especially on the purple ones and i am longing to have one and keep it good. Maybe after all i should go to a jungle, or at least to a place where it's easier to keep them. But not til the exam...

The BBC series


It's a nice sunny day again,so i am sitting on the terace and right now writing in my blog. But before it i just finished the postmodern style in film history topic and scanned for my classmate. My cat visited me, she is keep saying "miau miau" but i don't think she is hungry,as a lot of people come and play with her baby cats and everybody takes food for her. Poor cat,when she doesn't have small cats nobody cares about her like this. Except me of course, she always gets some caress from me.
Yesterday i finished a BBC series, the Portrait of a marriage. It's a 4 part mini series and actually it's really amazing. I watched it online, but i could download as well, so i will take it for my friend Eva, i am sure she will love it too. It's about a love triangle, well at the end love square ( i wanted to express that there are 4 people involved) and it's based on a true story. I post the cover of it on the left side. I think i am stucked to BBS series, i just can't get bored of them. I recently bought Bleak House however i saw it already two times in the TV but i need to have it with the pretty Gillian Anderson on the cover. And i am still longing for another series, The secret diaries of Miss Anne Lister.
Today i got my book what i ordered last week, it's needed for the final exam, it's about the European art films from 1950 til 1980. It's really useful that i have it finally.
And i am waiting impatiently for another book i ordered about a week ago. The title is Affinity, and i have to read it because i saw the film and it was just gorgeous. I ordered it from Amazon through a Hungarian site,so i am really excited when i will get it.
Okay now back to the history of photo film and digital media topic. And of course in the evening another great film is in the plans.

Secret diaries of...


Today nothing interesting happened,we had guests,relatives in the afternoon,well not for too long time.They took their small baby,he was born in April and he is totally a cute boy. I really like him.
And i went on studying fenomenologie,but i can't read from that too much,because it's too boring and makes me tired fast. So then i changed to another subject, important questions of film history.This is a much better one.
And i discovered a film,i must see but i haven't find it on any torrent yet. The title is The secret diaries of Anne Lister. I want this movie right now. I'm sure it's great as long as i have never been disappointed in BBC series. And i really like this actress, who is on the picture today, she played in the film Affinity too,which became my favourite as well, her name is Anna Madeley.
As it didn't rain today,we went to run with my sister and then of course we played with our small cats who are getting bigger every day and they can eat a lot.
Today this song stucked in my mind:

I'm gonna choose a film for tonight...

Soleil


Today's mood: Much better, as it's finally a sunny, warm day,however the wind is still blowing, but i should be grateful that it's not raining finally.Hopefully it will stay like this.

Book i am reading right now (beside the film history books): The shadow in the North byPhilipp Pullman -The second part of a series. The story takes place in 1878, i really like the atmosphere of these stories, i can really feel how they lived in that time with all it's beauty and horrible things. It's about a young girl full with ambitions, and she always gets involved in a dangerous and interesting mystery. I can't help, i love these adventure stories.
But there is also waiting for me a Maugham book, the Painted veil. Can't wait to read that also.

Today's song : Nothing sweet about me by Gabriella Cilmi

Today's occupations: -keep on studying avantgarde film history
-cleaning
-i hope i will have time to watch a film in the afternoon before the guests come

Where i would like to be: Under the Tuscan sun

In the still of the night


Isn't it nice to sit in the dark,when everybody's sleeping but you. It's quiet and peaceful. I like to think like this especially after a film i saw. It's just stuck in my mind,the whole atmosphere of a film,the end of it,the last seconds and the music during the stablist. It's so wonderful how a film can make an effect on you, occupate your mind seconds,days,weeks after you watched it. And i'm going to sleep with the last thought of it.

Why i made a blog?


Why i made a blog?Actually because i wanted to write a comment for my friend Eva,on her much better blog than mine ever will be,because she is a writer,officialy!I'm just a writer for myself.
But if i am here, i post a pic of a film i saw today with Isabelle Huppert.The title is The inheritance,and it was directed by a great hungarian director(woman)Márta Mészáros.So the actresses and actors are great,and the storyline too.An interesting love triangle between two women and a man.The historical background is the II.World War,so that makes the life of the three of them harder.
I wanted to go to run with my sister,but it just seems it will be raining again,so maybe we will skip that.
An finally i will try now to write a comment for Eva. And then back to my studies,i am just stucked at the avantgarde film history. And it's raining again...it didn't rain enough yet...
