Film Friday: Best Movies of 2011
2011 was a great year for films, especially independent films, domestic as well as foreign, and documentaries.
Some were widely received and recognized. Some were overlooked, as usual.
You can’t have it all, I guess.
Here’s the list of films that I absolutely loved, pleasantly surprised by and wished I had the 2-hour of my life back.
BEST MOVIES:
The Artists (France)
We Need To...

Music Monday: Feist
It’s been 4 years since I last saw Feist.
And tonight, she’s even more amazing.
I’m not sure how that’s even possible, but it is.
Seeing [and hearing] “Look At What The Light Did Now” duet with Little Wings live was a real treat.

Music Monday: Buraka Som Sistema
This past weekend, I went to Treasure Island Music Festival.
And this is the one act that absolutely blew me away.
More so than any other bigger/popular names in the line-up.
These videos hardly do them justice.
It’s the sort of music that is best experience in person.
Feel the vibration, absorb the insane energy and let the beats move you.
