Shame on me

1) I realized today that I've never listened the whole Bedřich Smetana's Má vlast.

2) There was a violinist in a church last Sunday who was playing the Symphony No. 9 [also known as New World Symphony] composed by another Czech famous composer Antonín Dvořák. My mother had to tell me the fact that is Symphony No. 9. because I didn't know what the music is. I think it's a shame.

So...let's start by symphonic poem Vltava [also known as Die Moldau] what described the course of Czech river Vltava.

The weekend

The weekend was:
Travelling - a trip to Prague
Ceremonial - there was a wedding in Prague.
Gastronomic - because the wedding reception was in a French restaurant owned by a French Chef
Shopping - I've bought boot-trees and a thing named Skubb in IKEA [buying more space is much better than throwing my clothing away I suppose]
Cultural - 1) We have gone to a cinema with bride in the prewedding evening and 2) I've visited:


I was allowed to make pictures by my cell phone:

Foreign minister, Prime minister and the second President of Czechoslovakia as a member of SK Slavia football team and dateless shoes I like:

Brit pop and Ska jazz

The state of mind of trying to listen a music I still don't know came to me this week.

1) Blur - I have listened three albums, but I would like to listen again just this:
Actually also Country House and Song 2.

2) Saint Petersburg Ska Jazz Review - the Russian band I randomly discovered today. I like it at first listening. If you like jazz, try it:

The Bruggy for the second time

The movie got me whenever I see it. Anyway, I'm conscious for delicate characters it is not suitable: In Bruges: Top of the tower scene.

PS: Me and Marťas have a now toy.

Paris, je t'aime

Me and my friend Jitka were in cinema yesterday to see Paris, je t'aime.
She is ungrateful person. Although she loves Paris she was displeased - they spoke a lot in English and too little in French to her mind. Gah.

To the cinema

I have the cinema week.

Yesterday: me and my mother and Marťas and his mother were at cinema to see I liked it despite of singing Pierce Brosnan. I think James Bond became much more to him.

Today: me and Marťas met in the downtown for take an ice cream or coffee. At the later time the movie we meant to see for a long time crossed our minds. For the workmanship and casting of Alfred, Gordon and Joker of course I give 4 3*, because this is not such GREAT movie for me.

Probable causes:
1) I was drinking a lot of water through all the day. It takes an effect half an hour after the movie beginning so I had not concentrate on the plot as I would imagine.
2) one of trailers before the Batman movie was
So I looked forward to James Bond and the Batman was forgotten.

This Thursday: Me and my friend Jitka are going to the Art cinema to see Jitka likes the French movies and on the other hand she refuse to see english-named ones in cinema. She is suspicious they are American and she doesn't like American-style. In my opinion Jitka likes the French movies, because she thinks all of them are great.
If she confirm that, I will recommend her Delicatessen.

I don't care we're going to see the French movie. I like Steve Buscemi elsewhere he is :)

Is It Love?

In Bruges

Me and Martin were in cinema yesterday. The most important thing of the evening was that we have bought the tickets in advance on the internet so we didn't have to be in cinema half an hour before the movie beginning.

The movie: In Bruges
Smart funny, sentimental, action, bloody, rude and once more funny.
Five stars of five for a background, dialogues, performance [I'm going to forgive Farrel the idiotic Alexander]
The movie could be reccomend for pople who likes Pulp Fiction, Lucky Number Slevin, Hot Fuzz.
The movie should not be reccomend for hard-core fans of Harry Potter because Fleur Delacour already won't be as she used to be for them. There are also Mad-Eye Moody and You-know-who in the movie but their characters are not as changed as the Fleur's is.



PS: The main reason I write about this movie is that we are going to film premiere of Indiana Jones tomorrow. I like In Bruges movie and its poster but it will be changed tomorrow and I would like to have it on my blog still in the furture.

Lemonade Joe

The Lemonade Joe for those who can't break away from their computer.


PS: By the way, the Lemonade Joe was my first not-child-movie I have ever seen [I was six years old] and my first not-child-song I have known was "V Lincolnu loňskýho roku" sung in this movie.

Jeff & Achmed

Today I have met Jeff Dunham [the ventriloquist] and his friend Achmed [the dead terrorist] for the first time.

DDR is at home!

I've got the DDR today!
I hope I will be as good as this child soon:

Later I would be able to dance like these boys and Eva and me would arrange similar competition with ours DDRs:
