1. The Smiths: Louder than Bombs.
2. Feist: Metals.
3. Bon Iver: Bon Iver.

La tension qui vibre dans la mémoire
I look back at this image of me with certain fondness because it was taken by one of amis d'enfance, Angey. As she is now en Suède, it could not be helped that I get nostalgic about times we spent together which go all the way back to me as a boy of 7. Oh! Nostalgie! you'll always be by my side!!!

This Should Make Me Happy
I suppose having a copy of Baxter Dury's Happy Soup should cheer me up on day like this. En plus, I seem to have this habit of dreading dimanches upon the encounter of Pierre Morhange so I kind of try to pacify myself with something fleeting like happiness... which innévitablement comes in material forms.

When There’s A Reason to Smile
There should always be a reason to smile no matter how tough things get when there's some frommage and vin rouge shared with your closest friends. And it's often easier to catch a glimpse of me smiling on the behalf of experiencing ivresse.

Vous n'avez encore rien vu
It's an unwritten rule for me as a cinéphile that I would be in eager anticipation of every Resnais film. And this time around, his dernier film, Vous n'avez encore rien vu falls into place.

overture
The title of the blog may sound like a poor reference to a novel by J.M. Coetzee. Well, it doesn't shy away from that... vraiment! Giancinéphile, or better known as my online alter-ego passes itself as my own stimulated reality on the web filling the air with my cinéphilie, a so-called flare for men's fashion (alongside my love for such a thing called aesthetics), tones brought about by things I've been reading here and there, moods often stimulated by things I listen to and just like every pretentious jeune homme on the block, I shall say I'm quite fond of contemporary art. And whatever is there left to say, I try to take photos as much as I can... trying to get them around.
