Zantafio

Mistress Fei, you are a regular cinémathèque. If I ever have a S & D session with you, I know just how to prolong supper far past its scheduled end: I just keep bringing up films. Who knows, the D part of our encounter might start with light talk about cinema and before we know it our time would be up. I would not even want my money back. By the way, the correct english title is That obscure object of desire. Does one earn free kicks for correcting a mistress ?

Newsweek included Fargo in their best 50 comedies list. Comedy ? One would have to be a serious mouth-breather of a journalist to think a film is a comedy just because its characters feature a Minnesota accent. Few films are as somber.

One ring to rule them all.

Schadenfreude must be selective, though. An old lady whose antique grocery cart tears open on the sidewalk: not funny. Senator Larry Craig getting arrested in an airport toilet for suspicion of lewdness, and wailing pathetically "I am not gay !" on the radio: more like it.

I get such a dominatrix vibe from Deneuve.

It might also explain why Takeshi Kitano would be considered handsome in Japan.

Ten months out of 12: Corsica. You would have to go to understand. In july & august: Paris, in an old, small cinema playing an old film. No stadium seating, no stinky pop-corn, no loud soda, no CGI, no Dolby surround, no ads, no 3D.

Deflating one tyre of a hipster's fixie, making sure to screw the valve and cap back so he will try to find the puncture.

OK, you win. As much as I would love to choose an œuvre not Yankee, I have to admit Dead man is the all-time, butt-kicking masterpiece. Effortlessly entrancing and in pure harmony with Neil Young's calm, heavy, ragged score. As far as the best N.Y.C. has bestowed upon the world, only Jim Jarmusch can compete with the fortress. Every time I mention this film I get the same answer: "Oh yes, Dead man walking ? Or Dead man on campus ?"

Surprised to see few mentions of feet in this pack of fetishists. "Favourite" can be interpreted. The prettiest, most charming part, the first I look at: the eyes, which do most to define the beauty of a face. Asian, almond-shaped eyes are the best. Green is the best colour and works with all complexions; blue is too cold. But the sexiest part: the feet, indubitably, Perfectly finishing the sexy curves of a beautiful leg with the alluring shapes of the heel and the arch, and commanding desire with shiny, smooth crimson toenails... Wouf !

Especially if those eyes and hair belong to you, Mistress Koi.

Easy: Gigli. Why ? Because such a choice shall compel you to inflict wrathful chastising, Mistress Fei.

It would start being digested.

Those chins !

Thanks for sharing this article, Mrs. Zhao. It makes me wonder whether, if BDSM were not morally stigmatised, many more than just us lucky enlightened few would enjoy it. It also sheds light on why I forgot the safe word during my session with Mistress Koi two day ago, to my bitter regret.
