Let the Right One In was fantastic, rather confusing ending though; abrupt and kind of stagnant.

I don't know whether this is the right place for this, if not, well, sorry ...

Dutch site, yes, but with webcams focused on the nests of birds. So you can watch birds do bird-like things. It's quite relaxing and it re-affirms my total belief in Spring.
Nature can be nice.

Agreed. I loved this movie so much.
And it's a documentary.

Most people have read those two but neglect a lot of his other stuff, especially his shorter fiction (stories and novellas) all of which are brilliant. "Leaf Storm" is one of my favorite things he's written and "Chronicle of a Death Foretold" is really masterful. His "Collected Stories" come in a nice volume and are almost all quite worthwhile as well.

I know I've read at least one short story by him (something about a wounded angel, I don't remember the name) that was good, but I'll try to find some more.

"A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" from the aforementioned Leaf Storm. I actually had to read that in a high school class but I remember it standing out quite a bit, so I should really pick up the whole collection of these days...
TheFuriousWombat:
Just to clarify, 'Leaf Storm' is its own separate piece. It's a novella, around 100 pages or so, and comes in a volume with a few other stories. It's an awesome place to start for anyone interested in the less immediately popular Garcia Marquez books.
