What’s a book, movie, or TV show that you wish you could experience again for the first time?

Who knows if either hits your psyche, or perfectly once again. Here I will give an example of a movie that was a delightful movie experience. I watched this move with our son while visiting in Berlin. We loved the movie. if I watched it with somebody else it would not be the same experience.

Drowning by Numbers is a 1988 crime comedy-drama film directed by Peter Greenaway. It won the award for Best Artistic Contribution at the Cannes Film Festival of 1988.[3

Northern Exposure – I watched this series with my buddy Mike and my ex while living in DC. I still love the show and rewatched a few seasons. But there was nothing like the Monday night ritual to start the week.

The Divers Clothes Lie Empty – this book caught me completely by surprise as I was driving up and down the Interstate. I put it on at random, my wife checked it out, and I was flabbergasted by the brilliance and originality of this book.

In each case, each experience was a flash of unexpected brilliance. I found each at random very much like I found this brilliant piece of music yesterday. You cannot replicate that .

    I am embarressed to admit I have never see Star Wars. I do know the scene, through cocktail party chat.

    Well played.

    You know – that’s a condition that can be corrected! I was young when I first saw this scene, and it captured the yearning and longing for adventure that all young people have. I wonder how it would hit me now that my adventure has already begun?

    I’ve never heard of this film, but I did sincerely enjoy listening to the book My Friends that you recommended recently!

I would love to hear you opinion as well

I’m Mark

His friends observe Mark seems wired a little differently. Perhaps it’s more likely that noticing little things often missed by others is a relic of a quieter, simpler time. He has a way with words, which he refuses to let be hindered by sub-par typing skills. People have great stories to tell if you sit and listen.

A belief dear to Mark is that there is certain beauty in the world. You simply have to look for it.
