In search of inspiration I started to sift through your blogs and Gosia inspired me to write about coffee, but in a slightly different context.

Have you seen "Coffee and cigarettes"? Jim Jarmush is famous for his weird movies, either you love them of hate them. I am somewhere in the middle of this classification - some of his movies I find brilliant, some of them...well, not so much. Many people are crazy about "Dead Man", but I don't like it.  But as it comes to "Coffee and cigarettes" I can't find a single weak point of this movie. The idea is simple - it consists of short scenes that take place in different cafes where people meet and talk about coffee and cigarettes while...drinking coffee and smoking cigarettes. Jim knows well Jack White. He and his ex wife Meg appear in this movie and they really funny (if you like that type of humour). I am a huge fan of the music band called The White Stripes, I think that Jack White will never again be as good as he was when he played with Meg (apart from the Dead Weather, but that's a long story) so it was really exciting to watch this movie not knowing that he'll be there.



Another great movie is "Only lovers left alive". The greatest thing about it is how differently people react to it. Some of them are fascinated with acting, music, sense of humour and exceptional atmosphere of it while other can't stand it so much, they have to leave cinema hall in the middle of it (believe me, half of the audience left the room when I was watching it in the cinema!).



If you haven't seen them, give it a try. Let's see wheter you'll love them or hate them ;)

  2. I never watch vampire movies, but in the case of "Only lovers left alive" I made an exception because of the fantastic cast. It was amazing, and definitely worth recommending :)
