17 maj! Norway! Anchor Encore!

This day needed alcohol.

We started at Kulturhuset where students from Konstfack were exhibiting some of their works. Klara Lidén was represented among others.
The Perfect Human
was not as impressing as Jørgen Leths film with the same name.
A lot of déjà vu, a lot of déjà entendu, a lot of boredom were shown.

Then, to cheer us up, Gunnar and I went on to a dark place full of small colourful bottles of alcoholic substances.

At Halwyllska Palatset there is an exhibition with perfumes during this Spring 2007.
The exhibition was very interesting.
But they missed Cuir de Russie (1924) by Chanel (my fragrance for those of you who have never smelt me). We had a nice chat with one of the curators who had lived in France about 20 years ago. My list of perfect sences has now increased. I would like to get:

_Cabochard, Grès
_Joy, Jean Patou
_Petite Chérie, Annick Goutal

French perfumes for French people, and French film for Swedish audience...
We went on with a screening of La Ville est Tranquille, by Robert Guédiguian.
The film was as cool as the title. The story was not 'black vs white', and for once abortion was meant as a factor that can destroy a couple's life. There were no nice ones, and no bad ones.
I (Aurore) liked it a lot.

After this first French film, Gunnar introduced a screening of Coeurs, by Alain Resnais.
He was too well prepared, meaning that he had gathered to much information resulting in the fact that his introduction became all too long, but all his other introductions have become much better since this evening.

As we had already seen Coeurs, we went on to buy some food, and choosed PUB Anchor to kill the time. Beer, fries and béarnaise sauce were needed.
That was not necessary Konstfack's students' fault, but we had to enjoy a beer before going back hell home.
