TASP 2003 at UT Austin: The Mystery of Creativity



reasonably remarkable



Sunday, January 16, 2005
While the Harvardians are recovering from finals and while we wait for intellectual/spiritual wankery to resume, I have a quick question for all of you who actually read Crime and Punishment: did anyone read Professor Monas' translation? I can't seem to find it anywhere even though it's apparently a mass paperback edition. With a hideous cover. :(

People from my dorm were going to get together to watch Clockwork Orange last night - the planning went perfectly, everyone was really psyched up about it, I listened to Beethoven to immunize myself against involuntary twitching (I didn't really, but I would have), and then of course we forgot to rent it. But we're making up for it with a Kurosawa tomorrow. I love how TASP movies last forever.

Speaking of which, I forgot to mention I watched The Princess and the Warrior sometime last year - same director, same actress as Lora Rehnt. I highly recommend it, because it was so much fun, even though I've stopped updating the recommendations list (sorry. someday.).
