THE NEW COLLECTION IS THE NEW COLLECTION - 25/01/22
Although the sales haven't said their last word, and some of you are still waiting with bated breath, lurking in the shadows of your fantasies, here comes the tip of the new collection.
And frankly, given the weather we're experiencing today ( January 25th), it was only natural that I should brighten up your life and your feet with some metallic, glittery goodness. Strange paradox, isn't it?

Inherent Vice was as bad as they come. This is a different story, a more or less clear cat-and-mouse game that lasts more than two hours in an America on the verge of an oil crisis. Sure, the soundtrack is good, but it's not crazy either, the guy didn't go digging for the bottom of the barrel. Then again, it's cute that he's got the son of his former favourite actor, Tom Waits, Sean Penn.

Is this film worth seeing? Yes, of course, because Paul Thomas Anderson is the latest phenomenon of his kind. But it's about time he took his personality in hand instead of trying to reinvent himself as the neo-Altman he lacks in chaotic talent. But you can only find what you're looking for.
It was in the film and I love Sonny and Cher and I hope you do too:
