This is a tumblelog, kinda like a blog but with short-form, mixed-media posts with stuff I like. Scroll down a bit to start reading, or a bit more to read more about me.
“I’ve lost all my money on these films. They are not commercial. But I’m glad to lose it this way. To have for a souvenir of my life pictures like Umberto D. and The Bicycle Thief.”
Vittorio De Sica (July 7, 1901/02 — November 13, 1974)
On this day Giovanni Falcone, Italian prosecuting magistrate working to legally defeat Mafia, was killed on the motorway near Capaci. He believed in the Law and in honesty. They blew him up. And with “they” I don’t refer only to Mafia… Rest in peace.
