Godard iba a hacer una pelΓ­cula en MΓ©xico. Uno de sus temas esenciales fue la imposibilidad de hablar de un lugar desde otro. Aunque el cine era un intento de cerrar distancias, Godard expresΓ³ esta tentativa como un fracaso. De algΓΊn modo predijo lo de Audiard

Los estadounidenses y europeos hicieron un escΓ‘ndalo por una pelΓ­cula que ni existe, The Day the Clown Cried, de Jerry Lewis, por ser una comedia del Holocausto. ΒΏPor quΓ© creen, entonces, que un francΓ©s puede hacer lo mismo con las heridas de MΓ©xico y hasta lo premian? Por colonialismo

Do y'all ever get into the special features or is it mainly just the film? Amazing to see!

KNEECAP, one of my favorite movies of the year, is streaming on Netflix now! It’s Ireland’s Oscar entry & it’s a propulsive, anti-colonialist music-driven comedy. I reviewed it for Variety and interviewed the band and director Rich Peppiatt for NYT. I’ll put links in the thread.

Silvia Pinal has died. One of the brightest most versatile stars in the history of Mexican cinema. Her work with Luis BuΓ±uel in VIRIDIANA, THE EXTERMINATING ANGEL, SIMON OF THE DESERT stands indelible. What a career. Descanse en paz una de las mΓ‘s grandes del cine mexicano.
