Almost done reading Something of an Autobiography by Akira Kurosawa. Two thumbs way up. I'm technically done with the book, just have the Appendix left. Thoroughly enjoyed it and can't wait to see more of his films. Rashomon is one of my faves.

Speaking of good books, Eduardo Galeano's Book of Embraces is one of my all time favorites. I love his books and have been hunting for copies of his Memory of Fire Trilogy in used book stores. I can never find the complete set. Galeano is one of my favorite authors. Others have good taste in reading, too.
