CULTURE: art, books and movies


One of my favorite book cover designers, Coralie Brickford-Smith designed the art deco inspired covers fro F. Scott Fitzgerald.  I really want this collection of books to add to my collection, I have started with the Great Gatsby! I am reading it again, crazy how much you forget.... had to read this in High School.  I have forgotten much of it!  It's such a good book!  I can't wait until the remake from Baz Luhrmann is out, starring Leonardo Di Caprio!
I have an entire year to wait, with the release scheduled for December 2012. *sigh* I am excited to see all the costume design. Should be amazing.
until then, I will have to read all of F. Scott Fitzgerald's books!
