CristianHC   (50 år)

Hi, Cristian here.

I like to read Crime Fiction, PI/Detective, Noir, Hardboiled, who-du-nit or whatever you like to call it. Hopefully the authors will bring something more than just a good mystery.

Writers that I like: John Connolly, Dennis Lehane, Robert Wilson, Martin Cruz Smith, James Lee Burke, RJ Ellory, Jo Nesbo, Michael Koryta, Declan Hughes, Arnaldur Indridason, and Charlie Huston.

I also like movies, a few names:

Leon, The Usual Suspect, The Godfather I, II, Seven, 8mm, Almost Famous, Dracula(Ford Coppola), State of Grace, Romeo is Bleeding, Pulp Fiction, Heat, Mystic River, Gone Baby Gone, American History X, Star War III, IV, V, The Lord of the Ring, True Romance, Lost Generation, Leaving Las Vegas, Underground(Kusturika), White Cat Black Cat , El Chacotero Sentimental I, Historia de Taxi, El Secreto de tus Ojos, (the ending of) Rock Star



Cheers... keep it noir!

Cristian
