Demanty noci
After a long time search for Jan Nemec movies I finally found, downloaded and watched his film Demanty noci and ...
I was stunned ... this is the masterpiece of world cinematography! The film tells story about two boys escaping from a transport between concentration camps during second world war. But the story does not make this movie a gem. It is dark and brute atmosphere of their fight for life mixed with surreal introspective hallucinations of both herous. One of the best moments is a escape scene in the intro when the boys run through dark, bleak and endless forrests, swamps and rock fields. Hand held camera, close ups, reflections of the sun ... simply pure art.
Check out detailed review (including other Nemec's movies) at Central Europe review and get the DVD or search torrent trackers.

Trip report
Made one of regular trips to Bohemia just to go outside Prague during last longer weekend. After start of using MP3 player in my cell phone last week I decided to profit from another feature of my Sony Ericsson D750i — built-in 2 Megapixel camera.
Here are some pictures of ruins of Kosumberk castle and rock formations in forests named Toulovcovy mastale.

I love my Mac. I just wish it came in green.
A few posts before I mentioned "green" computing and wished to appear more and more. There is a Guide to green electronics from Greenpeace. Unfortunately it shows very bad score for one of my favourite electronics makers - Apple, see following score chart ...
Fortunately Sony Ericsson and Dell whose products I also use are much better. Anyway there is already Green my Apple campaign to push Apple be more environment friendly. So take action and ...
... to get your Apple green!
