Another Earth + Melancholia (2011)

Another Earth by Mike Cahill

Melancholia by Lars Von Trier

Two of the best films I've watched this year. When you read the plot of both of them, you may think you're gonna watch the typical science fiction film. The really great thing from these films is not their original sci fi story, but the strong female leading characters and the awesome images that both of them have. Kirsten Dunst and Charlotte Gainsbourg give us a wonderful performance in Melancholia, and Brit Marling gives you the chills in Another Earth in her scenes (she's one of the writers of the film too), and has an amazing chemistry with William Mapother, who has a little but heartbreaking role in the film.

If you like films with a great dramatic plot underneath a visually stunning surface, you can't miss these two films.

Neon october

music on repeat...

DJ:SUIT Oct. Mix by DJ:SUIT

The 10th month of the year comes with a cool breeze that whispers into your ear: let’s party like it’s 1989. All your friends are back from holidays and there’s new people in town. It’s time to “hold on to the world, you’ve been dreaming of”. When the night falls we meet in the center of the city. You're wearing your pretty pink wig and you dance to the rythm of JBAG, Magnifik, Moby, and Dj_Nibc.

Your eyes are closed and your heart is pounding. Let’s reach a high speed, ‘cause we’re heading for the milky way tonight. When you’ll open your eyes, you’ll be in a neon city, red and white lines of cars by your side. Everyone’s driving fast, moving, talking, dancing.

We walk under the fluorescent signs written in an unknown language, and we feel like Bob and Charlotte: lost in Tokyo. We leave our friend’s house at 5am. The lights are still bright and a new dawn rises over a violet sky. The dreamy melody of Amorphous called “Delight” is still on my mind...

ps: the photos and the text reflect how the October Mix by DJ:SUIT makes me feel... hope you all have a great October!
