Dear Group:

I could start by saying “I’m back!” (With an avatar at last - I hope Tlaloc won't scare you), but, believe it or not, I never left. It’s only that I tend to become more silent that I usually am for periods (although dear Yanna may not believe it), but in my case is a positive sign, so I come as a “Spy” from time to time. And I enjoy it greatly. (Not that I’ll be that way forever!) Bottom line, I’m around…

In any case, I wanted to share as a “coming back” gesture this little enclose of YouTube videos related to our dears Alexander and Oliver Stone. As I knew about Youtube until early this year I thought some of fellow members may be as troglodyte as I am, so I can update you about what you are missing. And if some of you already watched them, I’m sure you’ll repeat!

I’d bring more links, but every one has its own related lists, so you can go from there your own way…

1. Fantastic video. I love the few sound backgrounds. Too bad for some ”Comments & responses”. Most of times I enjoy the “feasts” you see on Youtube, but here I didn’t laughed at all. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aRtb-6-SVjc


2. Bit of piece of interview with Stone. The man never talks lightly, is incredible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dC2rsyc-6sc


3. For this one, you may need a set moment. It’s the ONE HOUR interview with Charlie Rose. Stone with Angelina and Colin Farrell. I looked for things like this from the moment I knew Youtube, but it was issued very recently! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eI9Fy_POuVI


4. Stone, briefly after releasing WTC, talks with this fantastic character, Tao Ruspoli, about arts and politics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hkEMn5C8my8


5. Also, our other dear, Vangelis, is here, with an incredible piece. This belongs to his work “Mythodea”. The resonances between Mars and Greece, well… Just take a look. I couldn’t let this one out. I don’t know how many times I’ve seen and heard it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adp0Y6tgrUk


6. Just to listen. Marvelous. Two beautiful videos about Hephaistion/Alexander, Roxane/Alexander with this Vangelis theme were removed due to copyright or something. Those were incredible. Alas. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kudKt-jdwnQ


So, Bookmark and “save to Favorites”!

Loves,
Raul.
