The icons are amazing as always. I hate that I’ve only seen them now. ::sniff::
May I add Willy No. 2 to my collection? It’s my favorite among the lot. I love how you wrote the “A” for anticipation because I can safely say that Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is, without doubt, my most highly anticipated film for next year. Like you, I’m an immense fan of the Burton-Depp partnership. They simply never go wrong. I’m still debating whether or not I can afford the Ed Wood Special Edition DVD, which I’ll have to order from Amazon. Shame on you for not yet finishing that flick. I honestly believe it’s Burton’s finest work, and certainly the finest piece to come out of the aforementioned partnership.
I’m halfway through One Hundred Years of Solitude; I'm trying to make it a lengthy, leisurely read.
That book was required reading when I was an undergrad, and justly so. If you haven’t already read it, I also recommend Love in the Time of Cholera, which has to be my favorite Marquez novel. I’m thinking of teaching it next year.
I’ve got one book by Stendhal next on my list, but I really am clueless as to the title in English, sorry.
I have Stendhal on my list as well. Would this be Scarlet and Black, sometimes translated as The Red and the Black? That’s the one on my list. I think it’s supposed to be his most famous work so it seems like a good place to start.
