Which film was that? I would love to see it! I get frustrated over here in US because there are some stupid Americans (see I can say that) :-) that think the "movie" City of Angels is the same thing as the film "Wings of Desire"
I enjoy Mr. Wenders work very much...(finally got the sequel, Faraway So close!) on DVD.
Anyway, I enjoy your work immensely and would love some suggestions on German films. :-)
 |
^ "Der Himmel über Berlin"/"Wings of Desire" was the one I meant. But I must confess, I don't voluntarily watch many German films because the acting often seems a bit dodgy, so I'm afraid I'm the wrong person to ask for tips. |

Burnt at the stake.

^ Oh, ok. Was just interested. Erm, I think I may have to arrange for you to be murdered in some grisly yet sustainable and environmentally- aware manner. Can you just give me your address? It's nothing personal, it's just a revenge thing I will need to do. Though I dunno why, really. All Dan ever seemed to do was criticise my taste in horses and try to nettle me by pretending he didn't think I was totally wonderful. But still. I had an inexplicable, twisted sort of fondness for him, and it's what he would have wanted. |

Ha, you need to teach me how to fly- it looks fun. Maybe my fave of your sotds, actually...
|
^ Your favourite? Wow. Just for that, I'll take you up with me some time. I suggest flying over Jay's house and trying to wee down his chimney. |

This is so fantastic! It reminds me of Wings of Desire...one of my favoristist fims of all time. Congrats on SOTD!
|
^ I know what you mean. I wasn't thinking of that, but when I saw it, I was reminded of the original German film that was based on. |

you're doing it again- sitting on the front page for days on end!!
|
^ Huh! I haven't been sitting on the front page at all! I stood on it one day and flew on it the next, so nurr. Next time, get your facts right. |

did you bought the space on the homepage ? :)
|
^ I was just looking after the space for the mist-obsessed tree who owns it. |

However, in the cold light of day I can realise how blessed we are to have your face on the cover two days running.

^ Who the hell are you? And what have you done with Dan? |

seven in a row with no nudity, it just won't do!
|
^ Yeah, I know what you mean. You wonder how exactly they're getting their kicks from these things. I fear it must be something so depraved that I haven't even thought of it yet. |

I'm no longer pointing at you and laughing. Now i'm pointing at you and clapping, which is something i can only do because i have three hands.
|
^ That's useful. You could scratch your crotch while playing a Rachmaninov piano concerto. |

What a delight to have your sweet face on the cover 2 days in a row ;)
Great shot, great SotD, mucho congrats, dear !
|
^ Thanks Philippe. I missed it yesterday as I was doing special things with our mutual friend Viktor all day, but am rejoicing today. |

Quite quite vulgar to have your face on the cover two days running.
|
^ So sorry. Through no fault of my own, my mug was selected as the goodwill ambassador of the anti-foggy tree campaign. |

magpie delicious-ness. I dig it muchly. nothing quite like a dash of B&W glamour, NY & fairies... when's the movie coming out?
|
^ It's out now, but only in my brain, which has a somewhat limited seating capacity - understandably. Thanks very much. It involved lots of fiddle-faddle, but fiddle-faddle is my middle name. Only with a silent Z. So "Zfiddle-faddle". |

Between this »link and this »link but in film noir.
I love it.
|
^ Thank you! For a film noir, I'd need some pumps and a gun. I think this probably looks best in a big enlargement. I never thought I'd say this, but the Polaroid itself is actually too small for it's own content in this case. |
|
^ Damn. I misplaced an apostrophe in there. Please excuse me. |

Hope to see it one day as a reality.
|
^ Do gussets sometimes grow on trees then, Dan? If so, I must depart on a quest to find such a tree and take a picture of it. (If I wait there long enough, I expect some fog will eventually descend for the purpose.) |

Such a shame you have already forgotten your foggy trees roots. And they were burgeoning so nicely too.
|
^ As I was brushing my teeth only this morning, I had a fantasy about doing a foggy shot of a gusset tree. |

Your transparent legs and feet, I love the most!
Really looks like flying high above the skyscrapers!
So, be careful and don't get hurt!

^ Good point. And stay away from and giant fly swats. The bottom part of the foil looks more transparent because I shone light on the top half of the foil from above and on the bottom part of the photograph from between the layers. |

Oh, this is brilliant!
I've always wanted to fly above new york...

^ Wouldn't it be wonderful? I'd love to peep in at the windows of people on the 88th floor, too. |
