The Internet is not only a global communication system, but a time machine. We can come across things that never existed more than in the memory of a few years after they appeared. There is always something to discover and A few years ago, the mockumentary about the life of Steven Spielberg was leaked on YouTube that arrived many years before ‘Los Fabelmans’. It had been rumored for a long time the existence of a 1987 tribute to the director entitled ‘Citizen Steve’ which dealt with his life and career until that moment. Around the time I was shooting ‘Empire…
Season 4 of ‘You’ has reinvented the series of Netflix. The continuity that it will really have remains to be seen, especially taking into account the turn that occurs in the fifth and last episode of this Part 1, but it has been a successful change and consistent with everything that had been developed in the first three deliveries. ‘You’ has always been the series of Penn Badgley. He started out as a psychopath with a seductive edge, continued to find an equal with the character of Victoria Pedretti and the end of the third season marked the end of…
Many comments have been made about the famous episode 3 of ‘The Last of Us’, the series of the moment. Many of the most positive comments about the Bill and Frank story have revolved around Nick Offerman’s impressive performance, the kind of comic actor who wins the affection of the public with a memorable character like the one in ‘Parks and Recreation’ and then surprises when he distorts that character with a dramatic interpretation, as is the case with this one. It is true that here he reaches different human and emotional levels, but Offerman maintains some keys that have…
He debut in the direction of Valentina Maurelalso a screenwriter, is an uncomfortable film, as tender as it is surly, often dazzling, of an unusual force in a work of exordium and inclined to the honesty of the titles that come to us from South America; of Costa Rica in this case. Maurel does very well with a limited budget, few characters and few locations, telling a story that seems small but peppered with nuances, enhanced by fragile and plausible characters, whom the director never judges. In addition, the excellent photographic work of Nicolas Wong endows ‘I have electric dreams’…
This 2023, in the 37th edition of the Goya Awardsthere are unknown names that break in a different way in the categories of best actor and new actress. These are not interpreters with acting schools behind them who are taking their first steps in the most commercial Spanish film industry. Are anonymous people those whose directors signed up in an agricultural demonstration for fair prices, if you think of how Jordi Pujol, the father of the family of ‘alcarràs’, came to the casting of the second film by Carla Simón, or even a bottle, as happened to Luna Pamies with…
For years there has been talk of a fourth installment of the science fiction saga that began in the year 2000 with ‘Pitch Black’. Then would come ‘The Chronicles of Riddick’ and ‘Riddick’, but the latter was released in 2013 and it began to seem unlikely that his adventures would continue. Well, at last the start-up of ‘Riddick 4’. Everything on point Vin Diesel will once again resume the character, while david twohywriter and director of the first three installments, also returns to shape ‘Riddick: Furya’. Let’s remember that Riddick was the first character that Diesel agreed to play again,…

When we watch a movie or series and the characters stand out, among other things, for carrying a curious sword, many of us would like to have it to add it to our collection. ‘Game of Thrones’ is the perfect series to talk about it, and today we have found some official and unofficial ones (because they belong to the design of the book and not of the series) with a good discount. Spear of the Red Viper – Oberyn Martell One of the best designs is the spear of Oberyn Martellthe character embodied by Peter Pascal (‘The Last of…
Last year was good for horror movies on many fronts, with Unexpected greatest hits of various kinds.
