Inglourious basterds....inglourious movie? @ 2:30 AM

Inglourious Basterds! (2009) That's one of those movies I've wanted to see and didn't have time to!And last night I could finally finish watching it...I don't know if I was too eager to see it...the true is that it didn't live up to what I was waiting for. Of course there was all the blood and the other stuff and the great role of Christoph Waltz (nice acting!) who plays Colonel Landa..and of course there was Mr. Jolie(and his very weird southern accent speaking Italian!!!)...
There a mix of fantasy and some sort of modern revenge against the horror of the third Reich!The inglourious basterds look like a group of revengers carving swastikas in the forehead or cutting the scalp of nazi soldiers.


SPOILER!(stop reading here if you haven't seen it yet!)


The scene in which Hitler is killed is amazing but it takes all the historical "magic" and there also the fact that he was actually a suicidal. Shooting Hitler like that is something everybody would like to do!And I know that a movie like that did not (of course, again!) intend to portray any historical realism!
Yeah, I liked it. I do like Tarantino's movies. But there was something weird about it.
And I like weird movies.

Cool animation @ 4:30 PM

The coolest animation I've ever seen!
A drunk guy is climbing up the stars...but something really odd starts to happen...!A surrealistic film that reminds me of fantastic narratives, especially those with oniric themes. Very nice! Check more at http://www.aniboom.com/

Tim Robbins' CRADLE WILL ROCK (1999) is the latest movie I've seen! It was actually for a final paper at college...Although I had to watch it three times, I really enjoyed it. .


Two things I loved about it: 1. I hadn't known about Rivera's rejected painting on the Rockefeller Center's mural. 2. PJ Harvey's version of the song NICKEL UNDER THE FOOT which is played in the credits is really nice!


For those who haven't seen it yet, Diego Rivera was invited by Nelson Rockefeller to paint a mural at the hallway of the Rockefeller center in the 1930s.However, differently from what he presented in the sketches, he painted - from the theme MAN AT THE CROSSROADS given by Rockefeller himself - a revolutionary mural with Lenin leading his red revolution, Hitler's statue losing its head, and also syphilis cells floating over the decadent rich people. It had - of course - to be destroyed. It could never fit an America soaked in the Great Depression, and surrounded by an extreme political atmosphere which considered anyone who had other ideals than those stablished by the government as reds. I don't know if Rivera did it on purpose...that would be so ironic!

That's a great movie, especially for those who also appreciate Orson Welles' work.

Maybe we'll find them in the movies, in the books, in the pictures we'll see...
