Music, Movies, and Books

History of cinema is my passion. I'm really keen on american movies of 1950's. And there are a lot of other movies I love. In university I made project works about Milos Forman, Wim Wenders and Watchmen. Now I'm planning continue my education, I'm planning to study old Hollywood movies carefully. My favorite movies are "Rebel without a cause" and "Sky over Berlin" My favorite directors are Wim Wenders, Orson Welles, Nicholas Ray. My favourite actors are Humphrey Bogart and James Dean.

I can't specify what kind of music I like. I used to listen classic rock, when I was a child. Now I'm looking for music which speaks to me. It can be different - jazz, rock, pop - whatever.

The same story with books. I don't have favourite writer, but I like some books by Hemingway, Remark, Bradbury, Vonnegut and Frish. I like "The Catcher in the rye", some O' Henry stories... well, that's just those which came to mynd. There are a lot of great books in this world.
