Cremaster Cycle
Vi o Cremaster Cycle há uns anitos. Impressionaram-me nos diversos filmes (são cinco, embora não esteja certa de os ter visto a todos) os diferentes universos que Matthew Barney conseguiu criar. Lembro-me de pensar a cada instante que o tipo era obrigatoriamente doido varrido, pelas personagens a quem ele deu vida, pelos materiais usados (eu, que gosto de têxturas, fui brindada com o trabalho de um escultor de grande calibre), por não ter conseguido perceber metade do que me estava a dizer.
Quero rever estes filmes, para ver se o meu entendimento evoluiu nalgum sentido nos últimos tempos.

Anton Chigurh:
And you know what's going to happen now. You should admit your situation. There would be more dignity in it.
You go to hell.
Anton Chigurh:
Let me ask you something. If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?
Do you have any idea how goddamn crazy you are?
Anton Chigurh:
You mean the nature of this conversation?
I mean the nature of you.

Mais do que um homem endurecido pelas vicissitudes da vida ou aridez do meio onde tenta sobreviver, eu vi um homem incapaz de experimentar pelos seus semelhantes nada além de desprezo, passível de transformar-se em ódio no caso de haver tentativa de interacção. Investiu-se a si próprio de uma condição de superioridade que irá ditar-lhe a incapacidade de lidar com a imperfeição e, por conseguinte, um percurso de solidão.

Sweeney Todd, de Tim Burton
Sweeney Todd: "How about a shave?"
Foi um prazer ver e ouvir (trata-se de um musical) a dupla de protagonistas, Johnny Depp e Helena Bonham Carter - nada mais nada menos do que os meus actores favoritos em ambos os géneros.
O filme raia a perfeição.
