Thank you so much! Every time you make it so easy for us all to find the info, I always really appreciate you and your effort! ❤❤❤❤
i love jeanette winterson so much but since english is my third language i feel i can't fully understand the beauty of her writing and im not doing her mind justice, but then again reading it translated always breaks down a bit of the work's charm i think but i love love love the way her mind works aaaaaa!!!
I feel you. I've read three of her works now, all in translation, there's only two left and I'm thinking I should just try reading them in original because I feel like I might be missing out on so much! I'm gonna probably reread those three too
Steven Fry has a documentary called “Wagner and Me” (I think) where he talks about his complicated feelings with his favourite composer. As an opera singer who sings Wagner, I feel similarly, but I also adore singing his music and experiencing it, so I have given in and just embrace the glorious music. Not the man who made it.
I looked at your website, saw the prompt and immediately started writing in what could be called a creative daze. I shall edit it and hopefully submit it, my sincerest thanks to you Lady Dakota
As a Czech viewer of yours for many years, seeing you and other people in the comments loving Daisies so much makes me ecstatic! I highly recommend watching The Cremator, another czech movie that is actually based on a book by Ladislav Fuks, but I think the movie’s visuals and eeriness are top notch.
new dakota monthly wrap up video? posted ten minutes ago? I'm so lucky !!
have you watched Valerie and her Week of Wonders? it’s another Czech New Wave and it’s a beautiful, raw, trippy, terrifyingly accurate depiction of girlhood.
she has! She recommended it before
@@jaysemitchells497 oh I've missed that, anyway whoever sees it is a good movie I recommend it
Did u actually like it? Like I'm asking that not in an insulting way but the movie disgusted me I felt there were so many unnecessary scenes but I did understand the message but like what was that
@@Lenakeating don’t worry, you’re not insulting me. I was also taken aback by some moments (you know which scenes I’m talking about) but I feel like I could see them as a product of the time and the new wave movement, which is notorious for such scenes, and focus on the artistic aspects of it. the visual language and symbolism in the film is so stinking and expressive that for me it dominated over what was actually happening. plus I’ve seen worse depictions I suppose, so I’m sadly a bit desensitised. but it’s absolutely understandable why you felt that way about it.
@@anianiani602 it makes much sense now thank you for explaining
I love Daisies sooooo much!! It made me fall in love with Czech film :)
yes yes yes. My TBR is getting increasingly long, so much so that my wallet is crying from the sheer amount of books listed but I'd rather that than scrolling on my phone all summer before the foreboding doom (which the adults around me so lovingly call school) starts up again.
Thank you for another wonderful video.
So excited for part 2 of your recommendations for books about Art and Artists!
And thank you for the introductory recommendation of Monsters. That’s a subject I’m very interested in but wasn’t sure where to start.
I’m new to your videos but I’m obsessed and here to stay.
u are so real about jeanette winterson!!! i missed you, lady. thank u for this vid!
Lovely that you’re getting into and appreciating Jeanette!
Film recommendation based on your love of "A Clockwork Orange" would be the film "Brazil." Watching that in a post 9/11 -Global War on Terror is mindbendingly thought provoking.
this felt like we were on facetime especially when you got your coat hahah
We need a huge video of her giving us so many book recs in so many different themens that we have enough to read for the rest of the year
I saw Daisies (for the first time, after hearing you recommend it) last week in theater as well, one of my most memorable experiences for sure, I feel it broke down a lot of barriers for my own art/writing and has given me endless inspiration!
I literally love the way you talk, I swear I could, and have, Listen to you for hours! Xx love you.
Dakota!! I picked up a copy of "Edie: An American Girl" at the beginning of the summer. This month I finally got the chance to read it while in Las Vegas. I LOVED it. Throughout 2024 I've really been unpacking a lot of 60's culture that I never knew about as someone born in 2004. Thanks again for another great recommendation
Omg so happy to see that you love Daisies! It's surely one of my top fave Czechoslovakian films, love that you like it too! Sending love from Czechia
can’t wait until you can tell us more about your novel!!!
Oooo a video on books about art would be awesome!
how i love your way of being alive!!!
as for this month, I didn't really read much but saw some moviess
[ the challangers; maia tskneteli; up close; gone girl; the firemans ball; ]
ordered from meh to really good
I am reading The Virgin Su*c*des (not sure I can say that word on here) right now and god(s?) I am in love. It is such a beautiful description of girlhood and "being perfect" and mental illness but all of that from a boy's/man's perspective (which makes it definitely a book you should take with a grain of salt). If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend. But do check the trigger warnings, for it is a very good but also uncensored description of, well, Su*c*de.
DAKOTA I LOVE YOU ♥️🦋
Burgess hated Kubrick’s adaptation. He called the film “Clockwork Marmalade.” And if you liked Malcolm McDowell’s performance in it, check out Lindsay Anderson’s satire IF... made three years earlier in 1968. Kubrick saw it and knew instantly he had found his Alex DeLarge.
Very insightful, thank you 🖤
You would love the short stories of Flannery O'connor! Where violence meets grace. Southern gothic.
I need to know where the dress/ outfit is from!!
Wish you the best❤ you are such a sunshine ❤
Iloved this video! I am very interested in artists that are "bad people" and the "gossip" of the art world. I can see you said you have read a lot aobut the topic and i'd love to have some reccomendations on it!
My reads this month:
Socipath- Paric Gagne
Lie With Me- Philippe Besson (translated by Molly Ringwald)
Daisy Jones& The Six- Taylor Jenkins Reid
Mrs. S- K Patrick
dakota where is that fabulous black dress from? it looks incredibly flattering !!
You are currently solely responsible for my ever growing TBR 😂❤
I've already read two of Jaenette Winterson's books (oranges are not the only fruit and written on the body). Especially the latter one, which I read on valentines day, I thoroughly enjoyed. Now you convinced me to pick up Art Objects as well. Jaenette is growing on me and is about to become one of my favourite contemporary writers!
I’m sending you love❤❤❤
Glad you were able to “party” in the mediterranean. Thats what I’m here for.
Watching dakota is form of self care ♥️
girl drop the letterbox!!!
the sex in "Love" is unsimulated sooo yeaaah...You might enjoy "Scaffolding" by Lauren Elkin, it just came out and also explores desire, relationships, power dynamics etc.
Have you seen the movie Happy as Lazzaro, dear Dakota? I just love this movies take on good/evil, innocent/corrupt ❤
I usually never Watch wrap ups because I think they are boring but yours are worth it every time!!!
Dakota, are you a fan of D.H. Lawrence? I'm reading the plumed serpant from my uncles recommendation and I think you would enjoy it!
lady chatterly's lover is one of my very very favorite books
A CLOCKWORK ORANGE!!!! Best book/movie of all time.
Oh my goodness, just realised that I accidentally disliked the video when I watched the first bit yesterday, sorry😭❤
yayy i love daisies sm
This video inspired me to go get a library card. I'm not even down woth the vid yet
Dakota you are great
You might like Nietzsche's The Case of Wagner. Great meditation on his work and Nietzsche's own disappointment with Wagner as a person.
have you read 'the wall' by Marlen Haushofer already?
My favourite posted❤
I love books
I recommend you read Fingersmith by Sarah Waters for next months review
I want to start my own youtube channel (inspired by Dakota, many others, and my urges to share knowledge) but I am a junior in high school and horrified of the world (teenagers) around me. I figured this would be a safe space to talk about it, if anyone has advice.
Ps. Lovely video. Xoxo
i love you
very curious about this fearless tattoo on your chest 🤔 is it real or not?
i’m obviously not dakota but it is definitely real, been there since she started making content
wooohooo!!!
i havent read any books :(
if you'd like to consume more media about codependency, I really recommend These Violent Delights by Micah Nemerever. An absolutely stunning debut novel with an unreliable narrator about two boys who meet in their first year of uni and quickly form a codependent relationship in which they begin to go to more and more extreme lengths to prove that they belong to each other.
we don’t have any library 📚 or books 📚 in Libya 🇱🇾 😢😢😢
You can find book on ocean of pdf
Anyone else see what I see? CITADEL DIANA Official Teaser
letsgo lady D
Mother
Not Dakota recommending me a Czechoslovakian film I have never heard of and I am Czech. xD
Ten film je hodně populární v zahraničí, hlavně v Británii. Když jsem se poprvé přestěhoval do Walesu, tak mi lidi říkali, jak ten film zbožňují a já vůbec nevěděl, o čem to mluví, páč jsem v životě v Čechách o něm nikoho neslyšel mluvit lol
@@theskydeity Jo, to hodně vysvětluje. Ale jako super, že aspoň něco našeho je populární. Rozhodně se na ten film teď chci podívat.
Jeanette is 🤌
letterboxd??!
“I didn‘t know Wagner was an antisemitist.“
Believe me, Dakota, if you grow up in Germany, you know. 😂
waiting for people who like virginia to discover alexandra pizarnik
you are comfort in human form 🫶🏼
