Nelson Rockefeller, former Vice President of the United States and heir to the Rockefeller family fortune, died in 1979 of a heart attack at age 70, rumored to be caused by an orgasm during intercourse with his secretary, Megan Marshack.

Boris really has adopted a disgracefully cavalier attitude to his classical studies. It is a question of priorities, which most of his colleagues have no difficulty in sorting out.

Joachim Trier tornou-se num dos meus realizadores preferidos e não é coincidência esta referência a Mia Hansen-Løve, que faz parte desse grupo extremamente restrito de cineastas de quem me apetece ver um filme, só por ser deles (aliás, neste momento, só me lembro de mais um, Hirokazu Kore-eda).
