Première
"...no more lightning, no more tungsten. No more radium, no more fuselage..."[Surface Tension - Cobweb Theory]
Everyone knows that, in general, I don't like watching movies.
In my life I've been in a cinema only 4 times in total.
Because of this, it's quite simple for me to list all the movies I've seen in the last 12 months:
- No Man's Land. A Masterpiece. Pay attention to the dialogues.
- Hotel Rwanda. Sadly true. Really good movie, first of all for the Afro-English pronunciation.
- Memento. Incomprehensible. Tortuous. Fun.
- The Life of David Gale. Strong, maybe without cause.
- Miyazaki's top 3 (Howl's Moving Castle, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Winds and Spirited Away). Metaphoric.
- Jean-Pierre Jeunet's top 4 (Amelie, Delicatessen, The City of Lost Children and the mawkish, terrible A very long engagement).
- The Lord of the Rings. I'm not a fan, but I really like them.
- I Cento Passi, not too partisan.
- Roma città aperta, yes that one. I had never seen it.
- La vita è bella. Original and clever.
- The Green Mile, strong but with an awful secondary story.
- Wallace & Gromit, really nice animation.
- The Terminal, fun indeed.
- The Batman Begins, good.
- Bloody Sunday, real.
- Touching the Void, an incredible alpine story.
- Many others "minor" movies (Apollo 13 because of Milhouse. Into the West because of Sarah. Cellular, stupid but funny. My name is Tanino, absolutely stupid, but realistic indeed. Starsky&Hutch. Vajont and the show of Marco Paolini. All the Aldo&Giovanni&Giacomo movies 2 or 3 times each. Fahrenheit 9/11, The million dollar Hotel, Collateral, The last Samurai, the awful War of the Words, Garden State, I Robots, Minority Report and the three Matrix).
- Many cartoons (the superlatives Lion King and Aladin and the recent and less interesting Valiant, Chicken Little, Madagascar, Robots, and some others).

The picture of today is taken behind the scenes of "Sunday", the short movie that some friends of mine and I shot last year as a project for the Video Production exam. I was the "dolly operator", as you can see :)
