favorite love story tearjerker, and perhaps the only one that thinks about what about tomorrow (and as we know- tomorrow never comes)

or does it?


Lana is our modern day Edith Piaf. Totally unique. a mixture of Brian WIlson Roy Orbison, Leonard Cohen, Gram Parsons, Elton & Bernie. Born to Die/Paradise is comparable to Elton's Captain Fantastic. All the records need to be listened whole. Waiting for a box set vinyl of all 400 songs not on any lp

I've seen all the movies. Gregg Araki is quite the genius of indie film. Very weird indeed but very entertaining. I love the soundtracks to all of them too :hair:

he's my favorite director of all time, i love the whole aesthetic he created for the movies - and it's so weird that it's so good - and there's always a deep meaning behind it, he's really a genius
