Renato Guttuso I funerali di Togliatti

17 mar 11

Is it a communist painting? And so what? Who the hell cares! It’s described excellently and tells a slice of Italian history (since there’s so much celebration, everyone stays home, but few study history). On what basis do people take offense? If only there were more people who declared themselves communists, just a bit of intellectual honesty. There are many who are afraid of words (and indeed use them very poorly, as clearly demonstrated here).

A cover garbage! Aside from that, the piece at Sanremo was beautiful. At least I liked it a lot; if the other pieces were on that level, it’s an album I would buy. Who knows...

Elio Petri La proprietà non è più un furto

There was no place in the review (and in the comments, equally guilty) for Flavio Bucci (the most underrated actor in Italian cinema)? What a shame, a missed opportunity.

Usual things, we reason through ideology. One doesn’t notice the emotional charge of the writings; it's very likely that anyone passing by here hasn’t even seen the review about Vucciria. That’s that. P.S. Have you ever been to "La Boqueria" in Barcelona? A wonder. The paradox of the Rambla, the best is in the side streets: on one side "La Boqueria," on the other the "Barri Gòtic."

"sound neoclassicism," "escaping the dreary everyday life." Well... I see too many 5s and not enough substance. In short, it's a crappy review. I said it!

Victor Jara Pongo En Tus Manos Abiertas

8 mar 11

Voto:

The story of Victor Jara is one that should always remind us of the difference between the Rogue United States of America and the others. The dramatic fate of the Chilean people (either forgotten or mistreated behind clichés, like the magnificent Inti-Illimani), wonderful people and artists. Victor was political songs but also poems worthy of the stories of Soriano.

In Brescia, there are two multiplex cinemas: one is showing "Il Grinta," and the other is showing this. Are you kidding me, am I really going to the Metropol tonight to watch "Il Gioiellino"?

Clint Eastwood Hereafter

Voto:

Am I the only one who is thoroughly fed up with Matt Damon? I don’t see the slowness of the film itself as a flaw, but Eastwood didn’t pull this one off well, it happens.

Marco Bellocchio Sbatti il mostro in prima pagina

Firstly, the review didn't convince me much, definitely because of that damn opening about La Russa and then for relegating Volontè to just two lines. I find it amusing to think that discussions happen at a "Montecitorio level" when the "Put the monster on the front page" operations involve many other players, from talk shows to "labor lawyers." P.S. Leave Pasolini alone.
