Recently there seems to have been an advent (or should that be lent lol) in popular culture of media for the thinking person…
Maybe it was there all along, and now it is just more accessible… well yes that is true…
Three great films I saw last year were Enduring Love, Lost in Translation and Garden State… none had the classic formula of sex, violence, action and big stars (although I did like Team America too!).
Garden State was described as … Beautiful and funny… intimate and real.
This all struck me as I listened once again to Wires by Athlete… which is all about the lead singers new born baby getting ill… very moving song…
I just think this is great that people out there are prepared to go against the grain and put out something deeper, with substance… And you?
