    This week in Riehen: Opernfestival

    I listened into the rehearsal this afternoon. Great voices. And the stage is some kind of catwalk.

  • TV Sunday

    I just zapped into the making of Vitus on Swiss TV:

    Die VITUSmacher

    A film I really enjoyed. If you get a chance, go see it esp. in dialect…

    It’s raining cats and dogs in Basel. I hope this rainy weather will not result in floods and landslides in the mountains.

    open air cinema on the Muensterplatz

    Yesterday I saw War of Lord* at the open air cinema on the Muensterplatz. I was lucky: it didn’t rain! It’s a good movie and realistic. And the movie definitely brings its message across. Category: Must see.

    update:
    *an offline commentator pointed out that I got the film title wrong. It’s Lord of War, starring Nicholas Cage.
