Its difficult to choose the finnest movies i saw. I will not forget Il Postino (The Postman), La Vita e Bella (Life is beatiful), Le Fabuleux Destin de Amelie or the English Patient. Underground is a very interesting film, speacialy to whom ho have some historic bases about Balkans. I like also Giuseppe Tornatore films like Cinemaparadiso, Malena or L uomo delle Stelle. Don't forget Death Poets Society, The Pianist, The Man who Cried, and so many others. About music, it depends of the moment and the spirit. Tindersticks, Arcade Fire, Radiohead, Rage Against the Machine, Jorge Palma, Yann Tiersen, Goran Bregovic, Antony and the Jhonsons, X-Wife or Xutos e Pontapés. Also Chopin, Tchaikovsky, and the slavonic dances of Dvorak. Bella Ciao, the left party music of Italy. A time for Rodrigo Leão, Low and Lhasa de Sella. Talking about books, Hemingway, specualy For Whom the Bells Tools. George Orwell (Homage to Catalonia, Animal Farm), Miguel Torga (specialy his diarys), Fernando Pessoa, José Saramago, Marx, andré Malraux (L espoir), Julio Verne and others. And about Photography? First, Robert Capa, the best war photographer of the history, a man with a shortly and intensive life story. I advice anyone to read his biography. Second, the geometrism, the rigidity of the picture and his perfection, like a painting and the beauty of the forms and the moments. Sebastião Salgado for his works to explain the world in wich we are living. His portraits, the effect of the black and white. After it, The works of photographers like Josef Koudelka, Paulo Nozzolino (this is a portuguese one), Antonin Kratochvill, Georgei Pinkassov and Raimon Depardon. Talking about war photojournalism, James Nachtwey, Christopher Morris, Ron Haviv and Peter and David Turnley.
