I dag har jeg brugt ca. en time med min klasse på at diskutere og granske Tove Ditlevsens sensuelle digt Alene for dig.
The current playlist
How crazy is my taste in music (at least right now)? 🙂 There is a bit of the 1960s, a bit of some übercool folksy progrockmetal, and a dash of Bosnian canzona.
A year in cities, 2020
There was a time when I considered a year of me visiting 4-5 cities a poor year. Well, in 2020 I only spent a night or more in Copenhagen. And Langeland.
The Mandalorian
Everyone knows that I am not and never was a Star Wars fan. I find the whole Star Wars Universe extremely childish and too theatrical. By the way, I belong to those who consider the movies to be a part of the fantasy, not science-fiction genre, and boy, do I not like fantasy.
However, there’s a new Star Wars series called The Mandalorian, and I simply love it. It is gritty, pretty serious, there are no stupid childish jokes, and it looks so beautiful. The acting is great, and so is (art) direction. I find the main theme legendary. It is retro (think 1970’s), which reminds me of old spaghetti westerns several decades ago. It is just a very good TV series, which I recommend. This is simply the best Star Wars work. They should just burn and banish all the previous works, and start with The Mandalorian. This should be the way.
An X-mas street
There is a street in Vejle, Denmark, where its inhabitants go crazy when every December arrives. The whole street transforms into a Disneyland-like experience with millions of lights, Santa Claus and raindeer figures, and all that. It even became a regional attraction with many visitors who are curious to find out what it’s all about. And it’s pretty, pretty good.
