Zatoichi



Genial. la película tiene su desenlace y donde se esperaban los créditos finales Kitano rompe con todo e improvisa este zapateo glorioso.
Nótese el parecido al final de Blade Runner en esta foto.

Big Fish ..

They say when you meet the love of your life, time stops. And that’s true. What they don’t tell you, is that once time starts again, it moves extra fast to catch up.

La vida secreta de las palabras ( secret life of the words)



¿Te lo he dicho antes, verdad? Hay muy pocas cosas ... silencio ... y palabras.

El Triunfo de la empatía ( la escafandra y la mariposa)

An almost excessively beautiful aestheticization of misery.

Dr.Lepage: We want you to take it easy for a few days.
Jean-Dominique Bauby: What do you think I'm doing now?
"All the world is green".La música de Tom Waitts viste la escena de manera inmejorable.

Una furtiva lágrima ( two lovers)



Basada en una novela corta de Dostoyevski Two lovers se interna en las complejidades humanas.



If you’re looking to feed the melancholy existential restlessness of the soul, there are few films that have ever done it better.

Joaquin Phoenix ofrece una trabajo espléndido y crudo.

Pocas películas ofrecen una música tan acorde con el alma de la trama.

Lugares comunes

Los antiheroes de Aristaraín a veces nos dejan reflexiones como esta.. El arte de la enseñanza.


Would you give a guy a foot massage?



Jules: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa... stop right there. Eatin' a bitch out, and givin' a bitch a foot massage ain't even the same fuckin' thing.
Vincent: It's not. It's the same ballpark.
Jules: Ain't no fuckin' ballpark neither. Now look, maybe your method of massage differs from mine, but, you know, touchin' his wife's feet, and stickin' your tongue in her Holiest of Holies, ain't the same fuckin' ballpark, it ain't the same league, it ain't even the same fuckin' sport. Look, foot massages don't mean shit.
Vincent: Have you ever given a foot massage?
Jules: [scoffs] Don't be tellin' me about foot massages. I'm the foot fuckin' master.
Vincent: Given a lot of 'em?
Jules: Shit yeah. I got my technique down and everything, I don't be ticklin' or nothin'.
Vincent: Would you give a guy a foot massage?
Jules: Fuck you.
Vincent: You give them a lot?
Jules: Fuck you.
Vincent: You know, I'm getting kinda tired. I could use a foot massage myself.
Jules: Man, you best back off, I'm gittin' a little pissed here.
