'Annette' with Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard

I saw 'Annette', the motion picture musical written by Sparks and starring Adam Driver and Marion Cotillard. It is beautifully done and the actors give great performances, but it is hard to love. I do recommend everyone to go and try, though, as it is worth it. The film has the form of a fairy tale. This point is emphasised by the opening and closing segments, where the actors introduce and close the narrative as themselves, not in role. These segments also help to lighten the mood, quite necessarily, as the fairy tale is a dark one. Adam Driver plays a hard-hitting 'comedy' man, very popular in spite of his dark humour and audience insulting. Marion Cotillard is his contrast, a sweet opera star, who sings, sings, sings and dies, dies, dies every night - which turns out to be an omen. Their marriage is a major showbiz event. In the beginning of the fairy tale, Adam Driver sings about how easy it is to love her and understand why, but about himself he is not so sure. He

'Normal People' by Sally Rooney - a masochist protagonist

I recommend the novel by Sally Rooney: 'Normal People.' Apart from the fact that it is simply a well-written book, longlisted for the Booker price of that year (2015), it deals with a 'mildly' masochistic protagonist. No, none of the cute BDSM parafernalia we see in the 50 Shades series. Marianne, whilst extremely smart, has been tainted by mental and perhaps physical abuse. The abuse is not addressed amply, but is little more than hinted at, at the hands of her deceased father, those of the absent mother and of the omnipresent brother. The result is a young woman, who has difficulties maintaining a normal relationship and invites further abuse - not of the cute kind. The relationship with her best friend Cornell is that of soul-mates and off-and-on lovers - people that belong together but can't stay together. I was reminded of the relationship of Hermann and Clarissa in  Die Zweite Heimat.  

The origin of one of my fetishes

I have fetishes and am ready to admit this. One of them is exhibitionism. I like to show myself in the nude in places and circumstances where this is not normally appropriate. My aim is not to offend or disturb, but to stimulate myself. Not be seen stimulating myself; that is done afterwards. I have thought a lot about what started me on this road. This is one of the reasons: https://www.dr.dk/bonanza/serie/473/tv-t---70erne/52080/doedens-triumf  (the German version showed 'explicit' nudity.) https://www.dr.dk/bonanza/serie/473/tv-t---70erne/63680/doedens-triumf  ('explicit' excerpt on  https://youtu.be/XHhtIRJtQoc ) Dødens triumf (The triumph of death), Ballet for TV by Flemming Flindt and Eugène Ionesco with music by Thomas Koppel played by Savage Rose I saw part of this Danish theatre performance as a very young girl on German TV, by chance, and could not believe what I saw. I did not know the word Erotic, or the concept, for that matter. But to see fully nude women

My return as Vanna Vechian

Dear Friends, This marks my return to the world as Vanna Vechian. A big step for me, a small step for mankind. For a decade or two, I wrote Erotic Fiction (and Faction) under this name. My site was at http://www.daisy.co.uk/sites/VannaVechian/vanna_vechian.html , but I have lost control of this site and lost touch with the website owner. I am happy that the site is still there, because it saves rigging up a replacement site. The content, however, is static and backdated. I had a blog here for a while ( http://vannavechian.blogspot.com/ ) , but again I have lost control of that blog and the underlying e-mail address. Still, there is still content to peruse. More recently, I have been publishing erotic fiction and faction as Vitavie on Literotica.You should be able to find me there. I hope to be able to amuse, inspire and stimulate you with my new entries here. Look forward to interacting with you. Love, Vanna
