Deadly by design - a film noir masterpiece
Life, Plalai Faifa, Published on 14/12/2012
» There are very few good people in Robert Aldrich's Kiss Me Deadly, and those who do appear are on the screen for only a few minutes, usually terrified and trembling at the doom that they know awaits them. The world is never a hospitable place in the film noir movies made in Hollywood during the late 1940s and early 1950s. All are steeped in the mood of pessimism created by World War II with its extermination camps and nuclear bombings. But Kiss Me Deadly, released in 1955, is the most hopeless and least romantic of them all.

When wizardry Dwarfs reality
Life, Kong Rithdee, Published on 14/12/2012
» So we're back in the Middle-earth, green and gnarly, volcanic, folkloric, heroic, mystically Germanic, mythically Norse, and obviously New Zealand.

Should I also add: more real?

In good taste
Life, Vanniya Sriangura, Published on 14/12/2012
» What is your perception of a young man who grew up as the only son of one of the country's most respected chefs, and had never considered working in a kitchen until he got tired of his well-paying engineering work and decided to pursue a culinary career like his father?

Real monkey business
Life, Kong Rithdee, Published on 14/12/2012
» This is a lovely little kiosk run by lovely little women, and sometimes frequented by lovely little people with an after-school sweet-toothed craving. ChimpChimp Crepes & Co, on the ground level of Le Chateau Mansion in Soi Ekamai 12 next to Ekamai International School, is an enchanting elfin cabin (it would've been perfect were it set by the woods, but alas...) serving warm crepes, silky gelato, crunchy waffles, homemade ice-cream and hot and cold drinks, smoothies and coffee, all in a snug open-air corner of sofas and benches.
