Und auf einmal wird dir die doppelte Bedeutung des Wortes Schuld klar; der Zusammenhang von "sich schuldig fühlen" und "jemandem etwas schuldig sein".
Tatsache ist: jemand muss immer bezahlen, so oder so.

About Me
- Fab
- I don't give a shit. No wait. Actually I do, though I wish I didn't. Which brings me back to the question of stoicism.

Must sees - movies I've recently seen and liked...
- Mademoiselle Chambon - Chambon, not Jambon. An absolutely brilliant cast in an absolutely subtle and touching movie.
- Fantastic Mr. Fox - simply and absolutely fantastic.
- Das weiße Band - Michael Haneke, what more can I say?
- Revolutionary road - set aside the fact that Leo looks like a little boy next to Kate, I really liked the movie and the whole 50s style of it.
- Alle Anderen - a great movie about relationships.
- Milk - Sean Penn in a great part in an important movie.
- Entre les murs - which is why I never want to be a teacher.
- Vicki, Cristina, Barcelona - the new Woody Allen, very often at the verge of a cliché, but taking another direction just in time. Heaps of irony in the voice overs. I guess since Matchpoint there is a "new" Woody Allen style, and I love it.
- Waltz with Bashir - an amazing animation movie about (the loss of) memory and war and what it means to be an Israeli, I guess.
- Anonyma - eine Frau in Berlin - think what you like of Nina Hoss, but a movie about the rape of women during WW II was overdue...
- Once - beautiful story + amazing music = a wonderful, delicate movie.
- The Dark Knight - Maggie Gyllenhaal, Christian Bale, Michael Caine, Heath Ledger; that's four good reasons to go see this movie. If you need more, read my posting...
- Mamma mia - I know. But I love musicals, I love Meryl Streep, and I don't mind ABBA. If you do too, go see it...
- Donau, Duna, Dunaj, Dunav, Dunarea - because of the wonderful pictures of the Danube region, and the delicate analysis of family, memory and rivers...
- I'm not there - because of Cate Blanchett, of course, but also because of Christian Bale - who is one of the best, yet not very acknowledged US actors (and I saw him in real life when I was living in NYC)
- Le Scaphandre et le papillon - because of the beautiful composition of images and sounds and the claustrophic perspectives...
- There Will Be Blood - because I have hardly ever seen a movie that tells you more about the 'Befindlichkeit' of present day USA and where it came from...
- No Country for Old Men - because it's a masterpiece (see my entry 'The Cohens did it again' if you want to read more)
Overrated
- Parents... always so infinitely smaller than you thought they were.
- The truth... come one, life could be so much more interesting without it.
- Relationships... I'm sorry, but approximately 5 percent excitment and butterflies don't balance 95 percent of boredom and pain in the ass. Or put differently: Relationships are about trying to solve problems which you wouldn't have had if you had stayed by yourself.
- Blogs... people publishing their innermost thoughts in public. Oh please! You're pathetic if you think that's authentic. Haven't you read your Foucault?
- August Diehl... allright, great there are so many new young hip German actors, but that's just taking it a bit too far. He has complacency written all over.
- Paul McCartney... for Christ's sake, man, go and retire.
- Trying to stay friends with your ex... why bother?
- Barack Obama... okay so he's nice and all, and of course no European wants a Republican to become president, and of course it's wonderful him being partly black (is he an African American? I never know). But for christ's sake, he's just a politician - he's not fucking Batman.
- Phillip Roth... Men in midlife-crises. Okay, so what's new in the world?
- Eating chocolate as a serotonine-happy-boost... tried it. Didn't work.
- Otto Schenk... When an actor only plays himself, you start wondering why he's called an actor.
- Red Hot Chili Peppers... I think they stopped making music after Blood Sugar Sex Magik. Their songs sound all the same to me now.
- Sex&food ... licking whipped cream off a body? Sorry, I just don't get it.
- Paulo Coelo... that guy is so annoying I don't even know how to spell his name.
