In the second bookstore of the afternoon with my kids. They just love going to the bookstore, running around to see what’s available, talking excitedly about which they read and which they want to buy… and then leaving to go to the next one! I think we did well with these girls 🥹📚

Just watched Wim Wenders 1977 film The American Friend. Beautifully shot and I admire the young Bruno Ganz’s moustache… but this film is MESSED UP 😳 I need to watch it again and make note of all the connections between the scenes.
