I love all the old french and italian films, the stars of my childhood were Marcello Mastroianni, Sophia Loren, Yves Montand, Simon Signoret … my mother used to watch those films with me. we took our plates and sat in front of the tv having dinner, i sat mostly in front of the sofa on the floor, the room smelled of food, her perfume and flowers, candles were everywhere.

Music

Lady Day: the Best of Billie Holiday

I just realised how old fashioned i am. All those old films, books and the music from the time of my grand-mère. I think it is to contrebalancer my job. At home i want a happy good world, the goody guys are the good guys and the bad guys are the bad guys – and a happy ending, always a happy ending! Nane
