Tu me fais un massage ? ...

Sweet Disposition [Conditions] by The Temper Trap

Back in my desert. I'm tired. But for once, temperatures are pleasant (25-30°C, colder at night).

In a few words:

Movies:
- Bottle Rocket (1996) by Wes Anderson: Interesting. Not as good as Aquatic Life but being a big fan of Wes Anderson's work ...
- Up in the air (2010) by Jason Reitman : Excellent surprise! And way more creative than I first thought.
- The Proposal (2009) by Anne Fletcher: Entertaining but with a very strong taste of Deja vu.
- The Limits of Control (2009) by Jim Jarmusch: Slow, secret, minimalist and with beautiful music -> Great!
- Gamer (2009): A shit. I felt asleep watching it.
- Inglourious Basterds (2009) by Quentin Tarantino: Surprisingly very good and with great actors.
- Hotel Rwanda (2004) by Terry George: If only it was just a movie. Excellent... unfortunately. And remember to read "Shaking Hands with the Devil" by Romeo Dallaire (former UN FC in Rwanda)

Series:
- Dexter S4: More cynical, more human and more suspense. A must see!
- How I Met Your Mother S5: I still like it but now want it to stop!
- Fringe S2: Very good, mostly due to Walter Bishop's character.

Music:
- IRM by Charlotte Gainsbourg: After a first brilliant album... euh... Zzzzzzz.....

Hotel Rwanda ne m'a pas paru si bien que ça lorsque je l'ai vu. Trop... "américain" !

Je suis peut-etre un peu influence par le bouquin que je mentionne, qui est excellent. Et meme si c'est tres hollywood et joue avec les sentiments, cela reste un film montrant une partie du genocide Rwandais et cela me semble positif.
