Sunset Boulevard, because it captures many facets of people's natures perfectly on a grim setting, and leaves you thinking how close limit is between madness and sanity, ambition and corruption; has wonderful performances (beyong my long time crush with William Holden), and the photography, the...

usually a shirt/gown when it's colder, sometimes with pants, but as soon as it gets a bit warmer, just nothing-unless I'm in a glamourous mood, then I'll get a vintage looking nightie.

I've tried to read it many times and finally gave up trying to "On the road" by Jack Kerouac.

Argentinian authors, not really contemporaries but worth checking: Manuel Mujica Lainez-El Escarabajo (the beetle) Horacio Quiroga-Cuentos de amor, locura y muerte (talesof love, madness and death) Marco Denevi-Rosaura a las diez (Rosaura at ten), un pequeño cafe (a small cafe),Ceremonia...
