STEAM sale is happening…
The wonderful BRAID
Folks, there are some really great games available over at STEAM, and they're marked down for the big Holiday Sale. I can't speak for all of them, but I can recommend BRAID (only $2.49 !!), MACHINARIUM (beautiful game, for $9.99), and MIRROR'S EDGE (at a ridiculous $4.99).

Film Inspiration
Film often runs in parallel with life and it feeds off it but I don't think it necessarily nurtures it. I don't think it necessarily contributes in the way we think it does. We, in our world, in our bubble that we work in, imagine that it does but I am not sure that it does. - Danny BoyleStill image from LA JETEE
Nice article in THE INDEPENDENT regarding films that inspired directors: The movie that mattered to me - Features, Films - The Independent.
From the book: Screen Epiphanies: Filmmakers on the Films that Inspired Them
Tip 'the hat to Kottke for the link...
