Vogue Espana
Conde Nast Publications Edic
Great magazine! Go suscribe!
This has got to be my favorite fashion magazine! The american Vogue's kinda boring and full of ads, hardly features any shows (runway) or anything like that. This one does, and it does it extremely well. Every month it's full of pictures from the runway, the newest fashion items and they're all ...

Rushmore
Jason Schwartzman, Bill Murray
Walt Disney Video, 1999
Coming of Age, and All of its Pain and Glory
+ My Experience with Rushmore
Owen Wilson and Wes Anderson wrote and created a film that is profoundly rich in its portrayal of multifaceted characters, three lonely and wounded people. I have seen many coming of age films, from comedies to dramas, from "Welcome to the Dollhouse" to "Ferris Bueller's Day Off". "Rushmore" is one ...

The Royal Tenenbaums (The Criterion Collection)
Owen Wilson, Ben Stiller
Touchstone Pictures, 2002
best movie, ever
+ Pure Genius
+ the royal tenenbaums
With Wes Anderson movies, most people either love or hate the films. I think it's either you get it or you don't. With the Tenenbaums, I absolutely loved every second of the film from the first time I saw it in the theater in 2001. Gene Hackman is perfectly cast as Royal with his sometimes ...

Less Than Zero
Bret Easton Ellis
Vintage, 1998
Ignore the movie version, read the book, it's (unfortunately) pitch-perfect
Ellis is an expert at chronicling the callow consumerism and nihilism of a particular breed of American wealth. He hits it here. These characters aren't at all overblown. They are incredibly shallow. They are exactly as shallow as they would be if they were actually alive. If you don't know people ...

Valley of the Dolls
Jacqueline Susann
Grove Press, 1997
Rambling, operatic and much more than "Chick Lit"
+ A Glamorous Classic of Feminist Proportions
+ An absolute classic!
On the back of the book, there is a quote by a reviewer who spouts that most tired of cliches "I literally couldn't put it down" or something liked that. For once, I'd have to agree wholeheartedly - 450 pages and never a dull moment. The prose is lively, sensitive and articulate. The story itself ...
