Musica, film e libri

My favourite 3 movies are:

2) Ponette (Touching, really well acted)
3) Paths of Glory (big fan of Stanley Kubrick)

Music... I mainly listen to hip hop and classical music nowadays, depending on my mood. I was a 90s teenager, and used to really like grunge (Nirvana, Soundgarden).

Books...
-Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
-The Rabbit novels by John Updike
-Tractatus Logico Philosophicus by Wittgenstein.
