...these views online translate into more people at the concerts, more people interested in picking up your album? It's hard to draw direct causal linkages between these things. But I will say that our record wasn't released in some countries around the world where we then showed up and had thousands of people come to concerts...
...These two complementary and beautifully produced books belong to Wolf's larger, long-term project of documenting his adopted city. The slimmer volume, Outside, brings together his depictions of Hong Kong's hulking, close-packed apartment complexes, seen as megaliths and reduced to hard graphic planes. In page after page of images framed to reveal neither sky nor street, the viewer perceives not Hong Kong's iconic skyline but only dizzyingly repetitive patterns of verticals, both impressive and oppressive in their tyrannical two-dimensionality...
...Hollywood and stayed there. Her first of four movies for Hughes was her best: Otto Preminger's Angel Face (1952), essentially a feature-length rendition of the Ophelia mad scene.

By the end Diane has been the agent of two gruesome car crashes and four deaths. "I don't pretend to know what goes on behind that pretty little face of yours," Mitchum...

"You drive down any of the main roads in Delhi...

Though political support is hard to gauge in a country as repressive as Zimbabwe, most international observers estimate that popular support for Zanu-PF runs only at about 10%. A clear victory for one party would also be good for the country, not least because it would bring to an end a coalition government that has been deadlocked and non-functioning since it was formed last February. South African President Jacob Zuma, who has acted as the mediator between the two sides, also backs the idea of a poll...
