Hey waitress!

How to make a movie where sex is endlessly discussed without ever showing a nipple? Hiring Portman and Roberts. It sure wasn't Mike Nichols' idea (Angels in America shows most of what Patrick Wilson has and EVERYTHING Mary-Louise Parker has). And what have Closer and Angels in America in common? They're both fucking masterpieces. No tits required to be provocative, to have the best dialogues ever imagined, the most complex and yet human emotions in just four characters. It is PERFECT.

Opening 24th April / Prejudices without Pride

Eight (!) films open today in Zaragoza.

1. 25 kilates: A Spanish comedy I had never heard about. Not seeing it.

2. Let the right one in: YES!!! When we thought we had to wait for the DVD... Seeing it.

3. El niño pez: Lesbians not publicited... Ellen should be complaining. Not seeing it.

4. Fuga de cerebros: Brains of the writers have really gone away. One of the jokes in the trailer is about fingers up an ass... Not seeing it.

5. Smother: Diane Keaton in yet another motherly comic role. Ehem... Not seeing it.

6. Ponyo on the cliff: Still debating in my head whether this would be worth it. Probably not seeing it.

7. Rudo y Cursi: Gael García Bernal's beauty can make me watch some things. Not this film. Not seeing it.

8. The International: Clive & Naomi. Thriller. Mixed feelings. Probably seeing it.

Doubling the fun

I'll admit I didn't totally understand Duplicity. I'm still quite unsure about some plot points. Anyway it's a gift watching these two actors doing their thing. Great supporting actors complement a very funny (though complicated) film.
