  Wat een mazzel! Bij het maken van de woensdagse Mexicaanse maaltijd (met natuurlijk knof en ui in de salsa picante en avocadomousse), kwam ik erachter dat ons voorraadje peterselie op was. En wát zat er in de nieuwe groententas..? Phew, dat scheelt weer knoflookwalm ;) En ook met de stoofpeertjes zijn we ...

  Beth Kephart Books — Authority: 131
  In English 145, we talked about the art of the interview. About framing the conversation without boxing it in. About listening for the tangent and knowing which tangents count. About never pretending to understand more than one actually does. About follow-up and follow-through. We had the fabulous Paris Review ...

• Culture Warrior: Good and Bad Biopics

  
  Film School Rejects — Authority: 659
  The successful biopic is something that takes a truly masterful hand to accomplish. A lifetime, like history itself, contains no inherent narrative—no arc or three-act structure—yet, like in studying history, we narratavize the exceptional human life in order to better understand it. In biopics this involves a ...

• Book Review: Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote

  
  Ms. Smarty Pants Know It All — Authority: 120
  When reading one of the 1001 Books , I try to pay attention to the whys of its inclusion. For as little as I know about Truman Capote , Breakfast at Tiffany’s seems to fit him perfectly. The famous central character is Holly Golightly, but we see her through the unnamed narrator’s eyes only. Therefore, the ...

• Bad Biopics: Authenticity and Accuracy are Historical, Not Dramaturgical, Concepts

  
  Media and Mayhem — Authority: 121
  No shock here.  The virtually unbroken string of bad biopics apparently continues with Amelia . I will see it out of almost unqualified admiration for director Mira Nair, but nothing in the many reviews I have seen suggests that the film transcends  standard, tired biopic conventions. Gus Van Sant’s “Milk” ...

• Remake "Breakfast at Tiffanys"!

  
  Marissabidilla — Authority: 418
  What? I, an Audrey Hepburn fan since the age of four, am calling for one of her most iconic movies to be remade? Well, yes--but only if the new version strips away the romantic veneer and sticks to Capotes novella, which I just read for the first time. Its a good thought-experiment, at any rate. And Im not even ...
