Violinist Maxim Vengerov is joined by Virtuosi, an ensemble of 11 violins lead by Mikhail Parhomovksy. 'This is above all a fun record - even more than most collections of violin lollipops a disc for those with a very sweet tooth... Here is a young violinist at the peak of his form enjoying himself from first to last in music undemanding on the ear if not the technique, outrageously showing off in a way that for most will be very endearing. Not that the playing is extrovert all the time... 'Meditationi' from Massenet's Thais conveys a rare depth of feeling, making it more than just a lyrical interlude. With full, open recording, this winning young violinist's many devotees will no doubt have the same response as the enthusiastic Vienna audience. ' - Gramophone 'The latest disc from Maxim Vengerov offers some refreshingly 'lite' listening. Each selection was arranged for Virtuosi (an ensemble consisting of 11 violins) by it's leader, Mikhail Parhamovsky. Pianist Vag Papian joins in all the works, creating an interesting hybrid of violin/piano duo and chamber orchestra, an arrangement that works particularly well in Manuel Ponce's hot-blooded Estrellita, Schubert's tranquil Ave Maria, and Khachaturian's rollicking Sabre Dance. Just as effective are Antonio Bazzini's Le Ronde des Lutins, which comes off sounding like one of Schnittke's nervy Concerti Grossi, and a beautifully homespun rendering of Dvorak's Humoresque No. 7. Of special interest is Tchaikovsky's rarely-heard three-movement Souvenir d'un lieu cher. One of the composer's more restrained works, it nonetheless features some beautiful tunes, especially the melancholy Meditation.

2 Early Kubrick Films in 1 Thrilling Package
The most important thing for the buyer to know about The Killing Criterion Blu-Ray is that it collects 2 of Stanley Kubrick’s earlier films: The Killing (1956) and Killer’s Kiss (1955). Even though the Killer’s Kiss title is not on the box, it is present as an extra, along with its trailer. Other than that, you can expect the usual from a Criterion Collection release. For those who don’t know, that means terrific quality and presentation, with loads of extra supplementary material. As far as the movies themselves go — unlike Fear and Desire, I can actually recommend these two movies as movies, as opposed to morbid curiosities of Kubrick fanatics. They are both pretty intense crime thrillers and just a ton of fun. This is Kubrick before he makes big studio movies with big budgets, but after he’s gained more of the experience and sophistication he would later be known for. The product feels raw, gritty, sometimes intimate, and gives you a look at his NYC roots. Kubrick is still an underdog at this stage in his career. So, would definitely recommend for Kubrick fans, and just crime thriller fans in general

The Mastery of Stanley Kubrick
We're all children of Kubrick aren't we? Is there anything that you can do that he hasn't done? - Paul Thomas Anderson. One of the most true statements about a great director from another great director. Stanley Kubrick's The Killing is a harsh piece of filmmaking that is the true definition of a film noir heist movie. The characters are not glamorous and they are not symphatetic. They are merely real and that is all you need in a movie. These characters move through the intricate plot with the masterful direction of Kubrick guiding them through it and speaking the crisp dialogue from pulp novelist Jim Thompson. With that combination The Killing is noir at its finest. A great early masterpiece from Kubrick. This Criterion Collection blu-ray also includes another early Kubrick work, Killer's Kiss, about a boxer who falls in love with a woman who lives next door to him and thus gets caught up in a dangerous game of cat and mouse with her shady boss. A great companion movie for The Killing. But there is one disappointment with this Criterion release. When it was first annouced that they were releasing this film, I had high hopes that they would release the rare Kubrick film Fear and Desire with this, but I was sadly disappointed. Maybe there is a seperate Criterion release for that film in the near future, we can only hope. But all in all this is a great blu-ray, highly recommended for fans of Kubrick or fans of the film noir genre.

Best glass skin mask that makes it look like you just had a facial!
Color: Lifting (Jericho Rose), Color: Lifting (Jericho Rose)
I bought this mask yesterday and used it last night for the first time. It instantly became part of my skincare regimen after just one use. I’ve tried a couple of different Korean skincare masks, but this one is already my top pick. First, it comes with the silicone applicator to help apply it evenly. It’s not sticky or tacky and it stays in place. The directions say wait 40 minutes and after 40 minutes it is dry and peels off like a normal face mask! It doesn’t pull at your skin when peeling it off, you don’t need to rinse it with water, and then the results are INSTANT. I was completely captivated in the shine it gave my skin. This will be a repeated purchase which sounds crazy after one use, but you can just tell it’s that good!! I included before and after (less than an hour time difference in these photos!)
