WINONA FOREVER

WINONA FOREVER

Choosing a name for a newborn child is never a trivial matter, and certainly Mr and Mrs Horowitz decided on a name for their daughter that is striking.

Winona.

One would be inclined to quote Donnie Darko: “What the hell kind of name is that? It’s like some sort of superhero or something.”

Winona is the place of birth, but more importantly Winona is a female name of Native American origin meaning ‘first-born daughter’ in the Dakota and Sioux languages.

The surname Ryder, on the other hand, is a tribute to Mitch Ryder

We could also consider a married surname: Reeves.

Since the 1990s, in fact, she affectionately calls Keanu ‘husband’ because unbeknownst to them, the person who celebrated their wedding in Bram Stoker’s film Dracula was not an actor but a real priest. 

Francis Ford Coppola, but also Martin Scorsese and The Age of Innocence that earned her a Golden Globe, or Tim Burton with Edward Scissorhands or Bettlejuice that closes the circle in a way.

The iconic scenes featuring Winona would be so many, do you want to name one?

Is there a particular film you prefer out of all the ones she has starred in?

Winona was also a testimonial in a Japanese  commercial advertising coffee laughing

Don’t you find If you wanna be happy in Mermaids extremely addictive? 

Or irresistible My Sharona in Reality Bytes? 

Winona forever then?

She is Jo March!

Winona forever

She is human after all, so human that she has also made mistakes.

Maybe it’s because of this that I fell in love with Joyce Byers and all her imperfection in Stranger Things

Winona forever

And you?

How do you feel about the name your parents gave you?

TIM BURTON COFFEE

TIM BURTON COFFEE

On October 11 in Turin, a very special exhibition opened at the Mole Antonelliana: The World of Tim Burton edited by the National Cinema Museum.

Tim Burton needs no introduction and any description would be reductive to his entirely personal style, in two words I could say that there is a before and there is an after Burton.

Who could at length describe him is Paola Pioletti, a deep connoisseur of his creative genius.

Exhibitions, on the other hand, are Maria‘s specialty on her Art and Cult Blog


Kind of like Eva Carducci did just with him.

And what do you think?
How do you imagine Tim Burton Coffee?


Did you know that in New York the Beetle House is dedicated to Tim Burton? I went for a virtual tour and fell in love with the sign: Come as you are …


Would you like to go there? What would you order?


What if we ended up singing Day-O?


Even in the historic center of Mexico City there is a Burtonian-style coffee bar: El Extrano Coffee Bar.

Instead, in Italy we invented the Wonka vaccinara … I always admire imagination, but in this case … I better pass on!

Since we are in Turin, isn’t a classic Bicerin enough dark?

Indeed … anyway we can fall back on the iconic Turin Cafè in the Museum Temple Hall.

Kevin Spacey during a visit recommended making it a working café, isn’t this cute?

In this case, the Tim Burton Coffee version includes a special set-up with very limited edition posters.

Which one would you like?

I like Sleepy Hollow

Did you know that Johnny Depp at the end of filming decided to adopt Goldeneye, the one-eyed horse who stars as Gunpowder in the movie?

But back to coffee dust, or rather Tim Burton Coffee dust, is there a movie that you never tire of rewatching, or that you associate with a particular anecdote?
