I woke up today because a band was playing in front of my house, waiting for people to open their windows and give them something for the music.
Since I liked what they played a lot, that's exactly what I did, not realising that
I was still in my pyjamas and had very messed up hair.
The whole scenery reminded me a lot of the Emir Kusturica films. Also the fact that they played balkan music. So I thought I'd make a top 5 list of Kusturica movies. The problem is, I have only seen four of his movies so far and I loved them all: Time of the Gypsies, Arizona Dream, Underground and Black Cat, White Cat.
I guess if I had to pick a favourite it would be Black Cat, White Cat. Who wouldn't like a movie where you see a pig eating a car? Anyways, the music is good in all of his movies, which probably has a lot to do with the fact that he's a musician as well as a director.
Here is a video of his band The No Smoking Orchestra, who made the music for Black Cat, White Cat:

When we meet, I'll sing to you "Las Mañanitas"... for free, but it's just for you... ;-)

i should add that if you haven't seen any of kusturica's movies you probably shouldn't start with underground. it's very good but insanely long, almost three hours i think.
does that mean you never go out in your pj's :)))
I am pretty sure I watched a Kusturica movie but I cant remember which one.
Thanks for the recommendations...

Matty, I have to say, the name you gave my blog on your link list made me laugh and feel really guilty at the same time.
I'll try to slow it down some! :)
