The Cast

This is me.

And why Like The Cast Of A Fellini Movie?

Because it connects two film directors whom I’m both very fond of: Woody Allen and Federico Fellini. In what respect? Please take notice of the following movie quote, deriving from Woody’s film Manhattan (1979):

Isaac Davis: “It’s an interesting group of people, your friends are.”
Mary Wilke: “I know.”
Isaac Davis: “Like the cast of a Fellini movie.”

Neuroses

• I don’t like to receive static shocks from metal door grips and my dish washer.
• There’s a difference between “it’s so and so” and “I find it so and so” – quot homines, tot sententiae!
• When you’re in a movie theatre, watch closely for the message: “Send us a text message if someone’s texting and it bothers you”.
• The dubbing of movies – WHY, people, why?!
• I like conspiracy theories. But I do not necessarily believe them.
• I like even numbers.
• I can watch the stars for hours.
• Where would I be without a bike?
• I hate to wear a tie. I have to compensate it by wearing silly underwear. (Really.)
• The United States are fascinating. Which is not only a compliment.
• Someone has convinced me that rolls of toilet paper should be hanged with the loose strap of paper away from the wall. Okay.
• It’s a good thing to be a little autistic.
• I hate it when people go: “Ooh, that’s a brilliant movie, especially if you’re high on drugs“. Come on, dushbag. That’s NOT what a movie’s made for.
• I really like foamy soap. :)
• I love weird and long words in all languages.
• I hate escalators and elevators. Both of them.
• I have probably more neuroses than the aforementioned. I will update this list as we go along :)

 

This Is Who I Once Was…

I was 5 or 6, I guess. Alone on the swing, but not lonely, of course :)
