Art / culture that unites generations

Huh. That's fascinating. My kids love My Name is Nobody.

Although it only stars Terence Hill along with Henry Fonda, it is a great film indeed, with magnificent music by Ennio Morricone.

Last year the Nature One Festival celebrated its 30th anniversary. It was the first festival of it's kind. Unlike Tomorrowland or Ultra it did not turn into a just for profit company Listed on the stock exchange . What makes it special is the campsite. Over the years it turned into its own little festival and you don't have to get tickets for the main festival to camp there. Just a camp site ticket. It is loud, of course but is also has this family atmosphere . Grand parents show there grand children where they meet each other in the 90s and dance together.

As a stupid American, I'd never heard of this. Thanks for enlightening me. It seems pretty awesome.

More than twenty years ago, when my two kids were still young, we took them to WOMAD (World of Music and Dance, started by Peter Gabriel in the UK) in Singapore. It was their first concert/festival. In a few weeks' time, we will all be together at WOMAdelaide for the second time. The sheer variety of music means that there is something for everyone, but there will be some things that we all love. Last time it was Khruangbin (who three of us enjoyed again last year).

I inherited my love of World Music from my father, who had 45 rpm singles by Greek artists and a taste for trumpeters like Fela Kuti and Herb Alpert. One of my fondest memories is taking Dad to see Hugh Masekela in a Rock Against Racism gig in Oxford. Watching him perform Stimela was better than seeing my favourite album, The Wall, live.

It is nice to think that I have passed his legacy on to my kids.

Although they are not so well known in English-speaking countries, I would rank Bud Spencer - Terence Hill movies among the shared experiences of several generations in Europe and South America.

The two Trinity movies circulated around cinemas in NSW as a double feature every year in the first half of the seventies - always hugely popular on a Friday night, with four or five hundred teenagers in the audience.

As a tribute to Trinity, Tarantino also used the film's theme song at the end of Django Unchained.
