As Invictus coms out today I thought I would do a South African SFF. I have been looking forward to Clint Eastwood's new flick since I saw the trailers in September. If you haven't heard about it, Invictus is about the 1995 Rugby Wold Cup where a nation was brought together by one match. You can see the trailer below.

Song for Friday – Paul Simon and Lady Smith Black Mambazo – Diamonds on the soles of their Shoes

“She makes the sign of a teaspoon, he makes the sign of a wave.
The poor boy changes clothes and puts on aftershave
to compensate for his ordinary shoes.”
The lyrics to this song are absolutely dazzling.
this has always been one of my favorite Paul Simon songs… and I’m eager to see “Invictus” as well.
