Pierrot le Fou, Vivre sa Vie,or for something a little different La Chinoise. For something very different Soigne ta Droite which has apparently recently been released as a zone 1 DVD, or the Dziga Vertov movies if you can find them for a bit of political mindfuckery (Pravda in partcular).

For the S03 reviewers who don't have access legally to season 3 DVDs.

Otherwise, marrying a billionaire might do the trick.

The waiting list is about 10 years, if you save a little every month, you might be able to by the time you get to buy tickets. Granted it's easier said than done. And if you change your mind you can use the money for something else.

Yay! Going to Bayreuth is my goal too!

No, it happened, I've seen Shindler's List. Now if that adaptation of Yiddish Policemen's Union ever gets made, that's when I'll get confused.

History isn't real until we've seen a fictionalised account of it!

Had you seen Chris Evans in http://www.youtube.com/watc… ?

You need another Glover…

Thanks for reminding me, there were noises about that it's true, and it's a far better excuse.
I can then understand why he'd want to enjoy whatever momentum he has while it is still possible.

Hiring Kane seemed a bit pointless, he was used well enough in Biology 101, but went nowhere after that.
Except for the "A man's gotta have a code" line in BLU, which we'd all been waiting for, but that might have been too big a wink to the audience.

The standard Simon would be La Route des Flandres (Flanders Road)
, Duras L'Amant (The Lover), and Robbe-Grillet Les Gommes (The Erasers).
 
I must say I haven't read any of those though, but thought they should be mentioned in a list of classic literature as they are the prime examples of "Nouveau Roman" which was…

I did like it, I didn't mean to sound too negative.

I'm French, I live in the UK, but that's more to do with how I was taught in school.

The last one is fairly recent, and Hungarian, which was never going to help it reach wide recognition. Add to that that it's 800 pages and rather formalist.
A very reductionist description would be that it is a family memoir, but the Esterházy being pretty much synonymous with Hungary, it is a lot more, and it's all…

That's more or less the idea behind just five, and I hope people won't think too much about it; it should boil down to the essentials, and books we genuinely care about (I went for a more academic selection, but they are all books I absolutely love).
Some of the discussions on that thread last week made me genuinely…

I've read the Victor Bérard translation of Iliad, haven't read Odyssey yet (but I have it in the same volume so I'll stick with it).

Yes, they are. I actually preferred them (except for the last one) to it.
