from Reykjavik harbour
pAGE 8:
Sharing our fast food with the
world is arguably a more noble
cause than setting up investment
firms and online banks. No matter
how bad things get, the demand
for food served in paper bags
seldom wanes.
Paul F Nikolov thinks Icelanders should go on
the offensive in The Fast Food Wars.
pAGE 10:
Greek politics take place on the
street. On Monday, a group of
neighbourhood fascists attempted
to occupy the square Agios Pan-
teleimonas. Fascist is not a slan-
derous name imposed on them by
their opponents, but their explicit
identity.
The Grapevine went to Greece, where they
have some pretty real fascists.
pAGE 24:
Stephenson and Fleming un-
doubtedly shared many a drink,
Stephenson’s favourite being a
dry martini, shaken, not stirred.
Fleming later remarked: “James
Bond is a romanticized version of
a true spy. The real thing is Bill
Stephenson.
Turns out James Bond is based on an Ice-
lander. Who’d have thought it?
pAGE 28:
I’ve also envisioned a sci-fi flick
set in Reykjavík and would be
around the band The End and
their theories on the end of the
world. It was to be based on the
lives of Dóri and Maggi from the
band and their music, they are
great musicians.
Egill Sæbjörnsson on the movie he wants to
make.
pAGE 11:
You have to be thorough. We can-
not afford to have cases thrown
out in court.
We are all pretty glad Special Prosecutor
Ólafur Hauksson is being thorough.
pAGE 27:
Despite resembling a death laser,
there is something calming about
the Imagine Peace Tower from up
close.
Grapevine checked out the Peace Tower up close.
