It feels like looking at or walking into a huge shell or into a gigantic living creature. Certainly a cause for pause. What an interesting combination of abilities in one person.

Though I only spend three days in the city, I've been dreaming of getting back there someday. And glad to see that Criterion has done a good job with the film. The previously available version (on VHS, I think) got lousy reviews for its transfer. This is a must-buy for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8977893001776125260.post-40409338941557643802008-05-22T20:03:00.000-05:002008-05-22T20:03:00.000-05:00Hi Peter,Spain has been in my Top 5 places to go t...Hi Peter,<BR/><BR/>Spain has been in my Top 5 places to go to for some time now, but Barcelona in particular has just shot to the top.
