i'm all over Grey's Anatomy again

a video clip from my definitely most fave drama - Grey's Anatomy (Chirurdzy) - i've been watching season 4 and 5 in the last few days (still a few episodes to see) and can't get enough of that - great music, great dilemmas, great plot, great dialogues - love especially the beginnings and opening of each episode ... so if you haven't seen that - go and see ...

a song a day - Forgiven by Deb Talan

from a Lovely and Amazing film

a song a day - Northbound train (piece of soundtrack from North and South)

One of the best period dramas I've seen North and South - and the music is amazing.

a song a day - Paris Paris by M.Mclaren feturing Catherine Deneuve

This song today because I've just seen Paris / Niebo nad Paryżem - a movie with Juliette Binoche setting in Paris. Beautiful story or rather a compilation of several interlinking stories ... different people from different walks of lives, at different age and of different nationalities - and we observe their every day existence with their problems and joys and outlooks on reality around them. A really nice film ... allowing us to stop and think for a while what is really important in life and see the worth of life itself ... and showing the wonderful Paris.

a song a day - Love Our Time Today by Yamit Mamo

It's the final song from the Death at the Funeral comedy. Totally love the song - just as the film itself. A bit absurd but very funny - just can't help laughing.

a song a day - Good Enough by Evanescence

Two in one today - clips from one of my fave movies - Pride nad Prejudice - and a beautiful song ...



Under your spell again.
I can't say no to you.
Crave my heart and it's bleeding in your hand.
I can't say no to you.

Shouldn't let you torture me so sweetly.
Now I can't let go of this dream.
I can't breathe but I feel...

Good enough,
I feel good enough for you.

Drink up sweet decadence.
I can't say no to you,
And I've completely lost myself, and I don't mind.
I can't say no to you.

Shouldn't let you conquer me completely.
Now I can't let go of this dream.
Can't believe that I feel...

Good enough,
I feel good enough.
It's been such a long time coming, but I feel good.

And I'm still waiting for the rain to fall.
Pour real life down on me.
'Cause I can't hold on to anything this good enough.
Am I good enough for you to love me too?

So take care what you ask of me,
'cause I can't say no.

In My Father's Den

I've just seen In My Father's Den. Really good movie, although not a merry one. But speaking about the things that counts - family, relationships, friendship, death and ... HOPE. Beautiful landscapes ... and a bit of methaphor and poetry too.

Here's a video featuring some scenes (but not revealing too much)- with Sarah Brightman's song Eden - the lyrics matches the plot really well.

"Eden"

Did you ever think of me,
As your best friend
Did I ever think of you,
I'm not complaining

I never tried to feel
I never tried to feel
This vibration
I never tried to reach
I never tried to reach
Your eden

Did I ever think of you,
As my enemy
Did you ever think of me,
I'm not complaining

I never tried to feel
I never tried to feel
This vibration.
I never tried to reach
I never tried to reach
Your eden

I never tried to feel
I never tried to...
Your eden

Happy go lucky

I've just come back from the cinema - seen the latest Mike's Leigh film Happy Go Lucky. A bitter-sweet comedy portraying the life of Poppy - a 30 year old London primary school teacher with a very child-like and optimistic outlook on life. I love her attitude - even though it might seem a bit carefree at times - her sincerity, energy and ability to face life challenges with humour rather than groaning are impressive.

Właśnie wróciłam z kina - bardzo chciałam zobaczyć nowy film Mike'a Leigh Happy Go Lucky, czyli co nas uszczęśliwia. Udało się i polecam. W linku recenzja, ale nie zdradzająca za dużo. Zresztą to film, którego urok tkwi w dialogach i obrazach z życia bohaterów, a nie intrydze. Takie lubię. I lubię optymistyczne podejście do życia bohaterki - Poppy 30 letniej nauczycielki z Londynu- może nawet trochę naiwne, ale szczere i pozwalające znaleźć radość nawet wtedy, gdy wydaje się że jej nie ma.
