  1. > ... tradition has it that whenever a group of people has tasted the lovely fruits of wealth, security and prestige they begin to find it more comfortable to believe in the obvious lie and to accept it as in fact quite normal that they alone are entitled t o privilege. In order to believe this seriously, they need to convince themselves of all the arguments that support the lie.

  2. I finally watched #LetMeIn and the reviews I read are right: It's a very good #Hollywood #remake of the original #Swedish, #LetTheRightOneIn (#LåtDenRätteKommaIn); maybe the best such #movie I've seen.

    It sticks to the story and looks great. I especially love the lighting of the railroad, bridge (b/w!), and pool shot (you'll know them when you see them).

    I liked the treatment of the parents, especially mom, but the religiosity added nothing.

    It's still a #LoveStory. In a way.
