As he visits ever more minor nobles and performs more unimportant magic tricks, the Faustus of the first few scenes is entirely swallowed up in mediocrity. Only in the final scene Faustus is rescued from mediocrity, as the knowledge of his soon to come doom restores his earlier gift of powerful rhetoric. After all he…

    more depth and actually mean something. You see, music has the power to unite people, to heal the hurt, to empower, to take us away, to evoke memories from many years ago, to build you up, and to tear you back down again. It is the strongest form of magic and touches us emotionally where words alone can’t. It is an escape from the real world, the cheapest form of therapy, a drug you can’t ever overdose on, and a language we can all understand. For me to be able to write songs that have such a…

Sunset Boulevard (1950), directed by Billy Wilder, is a black and white film, where Norma Desmond, a famous actress of the silent film era, cannot come to terms with her career’s end. Pan’s Labyrinth (2006), directed by Guillermo…
