Patti Smith | 2014 | Biography
8.3 (4 Ratings)
Book Favorite

"I love Patti Smith and the story of her beginnings in New York City with her then boyfriend, the photographer Robert Mapplethorpe. It's a fascinating look at that period of time and at two very creative people who inspired a whole generation of artists. Smith continues to be so relevant, particularly given our political climate."

"I read The Grapes Of Wrath on a tour when we were driving across the country with the whole band in the van, just jammed in with all the equipment. In that book, they’re all jammed into this horrible truck and people start getting sick and dying, and it was a very eerie feeling."

"Something that I watched recently that I absolutely loved was Black Panther. I love the idea there is a Black superhero. Love it. The people have their own world and have their own technologies. I really love that it empowers of men of color to identify with that and, I suppose, that Black excellence."

1942 | Drama, Romance, War

"I think it’s just such a romantic adventure and Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart — oh my God! And that dialogue is so iconic. Paul Henreid — I just loved all the people that were in it. And the lighting was so dramatic — the way it was shot. It was an iconic film, I just loved it."

Movie Favorite

"This has to be one of the greatest war films ever made. It transports you into a culture and a struggle, and you wind up siding with people who will stop at nothing for their freedom. The imagery is striking and heart-wrenching. Watching this film will make you think differently about our current world."

We seemed to just get thrown into this and I found myself a little confused at the beginning. What was she? Who were these people she was telling us about? I know we got the answers to the latter the more we read but I still found it quite hard to get in to.

"My guilty pleasure TV show — 'SNL,' starring me," Trump told People, following his second hosting appearance on the show, in 2015. "They got great ratings. The best ratings in years. It was a terrific success. I enjoyed doing it. It was 50 percent more than Hillary [Clinton]'s show. That makes me feel good.""
