Where The Wild Things Are...cooming soon!
¡Vaya!, recuerdo que en la ENAP uno de mis inspiraciones como estudiante y después como profesional para haber ilustrado varios libros para niños fue haber conocido el trabajo de Maurice Sendak...y aunque ya no esta físicamente con nosotros...aún esta aquí para enseñarnos que dentro de nosotros existe...a wild thing!! (Aullidos).
I saw tonight this swedish film in Cineteca Nacional in Mexico City. An excellent film!! When we thought that the films of vampires were finishing in inspiration..this it is a rich film in melancholy and dark atmospheres but in the end it is a shining history of love, for me far better that Twilight.
Some people say that this film is the return of Mickey Rourke, but is not true, for the lovers of cinema, the American actor born in New York, never has gone away. And for sample, we remember to him by his work in 9 1/2 Weeks like John Gray, he was Henry Chinasky alter literary ego of Bukowski in Barfly , the enigmatic The Motorcycle Boy in Rumble Fish , the gunman Billy Chambers in Eleven Upon to Time in Mexico, Marv in Sin City , among others films.
"The Wrestler" it is a intimate film, is the history of a professional wrestler who saw pass his better time in the years 80' s. The history is located 20 years later when he must to fight in independent circuits very far away from the top that he reached some time ago.
Randy The Ram Robinson will now have to face his worse enemy: the time. The time not pardons to anybody even this colossus of the Ring. Also he will have to face the solitude and the hatred of the daughter who someday he abandonned. He tries to return with daughter and to look for his pardon. After a bloody fight where he leaves very wounded and then the doctors say to him that he is bad of the heart and that he cannot return to never fight.
Then Randy looks for a dancer woman (Cassidy) of a night club to told her. With her he has some emotional connection, she advises to talk and be with his daughter. But when he tries to retire by a brief time accepting other works, after to stand her daughter up in a restaurant, she says to him that never she wants to know nothing of him.
Very sad Randy returns to fight, and when Cassidy appears suddenly in the arena to say to him that he don't must to fight because he is sick of heart, he gives this answer: "There outside it is the only place where I can be hurt and I don't concern to anybody".
So he returns to the ring and he says to the public in a touching speech that in the life they can lose everything what they love and to all to those who they love, finally he said to the public that they are their only family.
After y Randy begins a to fight with the Ayatollah (his biggest enemy) but later he begin to feel very bad of the heart and his enemy suggests to him that is better to stop the fight. He refuses.
Film finishes when Randy jumps of corner to squash to his rival… never we can see him to fall… screen puts in black… because Randy knows that he was born to fight… and decides to die in the ring… when a man knows what it is his destiny in the life, when he knows for what he was born, he knows that sometimes the best way to leave this world is doing the only thing that he knows how to do… and to die fighting... standing up like a man.
Some people can says perhaps that "The Wrestler" is a melancholic history of personages in decay who look for the redemption either the pardon, if was another actor would be the case, but if appears Mickey Rourke, he gives another dimension to the film. " The Wrestler" is a film about the things that we loved and that we lose at the same time, and of the people who we loved and also we lose too.
¿En que andan los hermanos Wachowski por estos dias? Pues los creadores de la trilogía de The Matrix después de haber inventado el último héroe finisecular (Neo) prosiguen ahora con su tendencia retro-futurista y con su conocida influencia del anime japonés, así están por estrenar el próximo 9 de mayo Speed Racer (Meteoro), basado en la serie anime Speed Racer de los años 60's.
Esta adaptación es escrita y dirigida por Larry y Andy quienes también son co-productores. También como productor aparece el conocido Joe Silver. El protagonista Speed es interpretado por Emile Hirsch, el héroe de la serie, como su novia Trixie, Christina Ricci (Entrevista con el Vampiro), como el misterioso Racer X aparece Matthew Fox (Lost), también aparece Susan Sarandon (Thelma & Louise) como madre de Speed.
El filme fue producido en Alemania en los Babelsberg Studios. Se filmo contra la pantalla verde (igual que The Matrix) y se utiliza Alta Definición en Video.
"Meteoro es la adaptación en español del título de la serie de anime sobre carreras automovilísticas Mach Go Go Go (en japonés マッハGoGoGo, mahha gō gō gō), basada en el manga original de Tatsuo Yoshida. La serie fue producida por la firma Tatsunoko Productions y emitida en Japón entre 1967 y 1968, totalizando 52 episodios. Posteriormente se realizarían nuevas versiones de la misma.
Los personajes de la serie en Japón vienen de la serie Mach GO GO GO, de los estudios Tatsunoko.
Mach GO GO GO! fue creado por el pionero del anime, Tatsudo Yoshida. Fue un manga que se volvió serie animada. El personaje central es un joven conductor llamado Gō Mifune. Yoshida eligió los nombres. La "M" en el auto es un homenaje a la familia Mifune y no el nombre del auto, Mach-5, y el 5 en el auto representa un homónimo japonés ya que la palabra "cinco" en japonés se pronuncia muy parecido a "vamos" (go, en idioma inglés), por eso le pusieron el número 5."
