I saw these pictures on Oracle Fox blog and I had to post them. I love the yellow suit and the white fringed outfit in particular. Amazing.

Karen Elson "The Ghost Who Walks"

100 Years From Now



I love this. Elson has found her place in music and it's excellent. A folksy otherworldly type of music it is the America that I want to visit. My favourite song thus far is "100 Years From Now". It has an old time air about it  and feels like it could be heard in some half empty run down vaudeville bar  full of all sorts of  characters who live on the fringe of life.


"The Ghost Who Walks", the title track is also gorgeous. It makes me think more of dusty vast land, drinking whiskey on a porch, cowboys, and just a world so far from the daily life in wet Ireland!

Melancholia by Lars Von Trier

I cannot wait to see this film. It's released in Ireland on September 30th.

It appears to be a very successful and important come back for Kirsten Dunst, who in recent years has been noticeably absent from movies; in particular good movies. It also has Charlotte Gainsbourg, who I would watch in anything.

Other members of the cast include Keifer Sutherland, Alex Skarsgard, Stellan Skarsgard, Charlotte Rampling and John Hurt.

It's bound to be an Oscar contender, surely at least for Dunst who has been receiving rave reviews and won Best Actress for "Melancholia" at Cannes this year.

CocoRosie

Two songstresses and artists who also happen to be sisters came together to make music and this is what they created.

This song "Lemonade" is from their fourth full studio album "Grey Oceans", which was released in 2010.  It is stunningly beautiful.
