Music, Movies, and Books

I hate making top preferences so i am just gonna suggest few movies that i liked: City of God, Silence of lambs, The diving bell and the butterfly, Sex Traffic, Fight club, Mar Adentro, Persepolis. Independent or european production are a real piece of art-it's a pitty so few people know about them; same with short-film festivals, which are fantastic
It's always the perfect time for Aerosmith, Buena Vista, Metallica, The doors, Guns N'Roses, U2, John Legend or even Amy McDonald.
Books-this is a tough one. Lately i read only and only politics which would be boring to exemplify with. However Wild Swans is a great novel (still reading on it), The pianist, My name is Red, Schindler's List, etc
