[written January 4, 2007]
Best film of 2006, in my opinion. Just a stunning film. I was in love with it early on and then it took fascinating turn after fascinating turn and just became deeper and deeper.
It&#8217;s a truly sublime, sensual film that manages to communicate the power of scent through its medium&#8217;s power of [...]]]></description>

[written October 24, 2007]
One of the reasons that great art means so much to us is because we find ourselves reflected and expressed in it, even when it is other people&#8217;s creations. For a long while now, I have figured out the formula to really understanding my mind and my heart for anyone interested. If [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This is not a site for Nietzsche's ideas but a place for Nietzschean ideas.  It is not a place for the dogmatic preaching of Nietzschean ideas.
