Something Different: The Adventures of Prince Achmed

The Adventures of Prince Achmed, Germany, 1926

I've always been enchanted by fairy tales and storytelling from foreign countries. My mother once took me to see a stage play of Grimm's Tales, uncensored. I think animations for today's children are way too smart--in a bad way. The lessons are different, a little more shallow, and repetitive. Which is why I am drawn to stories like Kirikou(my *favorite*), and Prince Achmed:

Taken from The Arabian Nights, the film tells the story of a wicked sorcerer who tricks Prince Achmed into mounting a magical flying horse and sends the rider off on a flight to his death. But the prince foils the magicians plan, and soars headlong into a series of wondrous adventures joining forces with Aladdin and the Witch of the Fiery Mountains, doing battle with the sorcerer's army of monsters and demons, and falling in love with the beautiful Princess Peri Banu.

If you've ever seen the Jim Carey movie Lemony Snicket's A Series of Unfortunate Events you'll notice that the spectacular animation is similar.

Just Do It Already

Today is AIDS Awareness Day. If you haven't already, get tested. Everybody does now, so get over the stigma. You don't really know what your boyfriend or girlfriend does on the low, so stop being in denial. And even if you do--get tested anyway.

Plus it's Free and Confidential.

Feeling Nostalgic: Mos Def

Mos Def is my favorite rapper. (This is old news). I was thinking about hip hop sampling in general after reading Rhyme with Snitch's post on Kanye West. And then I thought of Mos Def, and I remembered what I love about hip hop. Message, music, sincerity. And in the case of Umi Says, inspiration.

It's not the Crown Jewels but it is Tiffany & Co. The newest location is in the Westfield Shopping Centre in London. Tiffany's, a leader in premier jewelry, you'll find the most elegant and vintage inspired pieces from designers like Elsa Peretti and Paloma Picasso that tell a timeless tale. Set in The Village which only houses top labels, crystal chandeliers, double-sized shopping windows and a champagne bar will not only enhance your shopping experience but will make it a memorable one.
