Blab-log... Perché? = Why?
IMDB elenca 2,5 milioni di film (dal 1880 al 2019); Google conta 130 milioni di libri (fino all’agosto 2010); la popolazione mondiale è stimata sui 7,1 miliardi dal Censo statunitense. Ma l'aspettativa media di vita è 68 anni, secondo le Nazioni Unite (2005/2010)... Dobbiamo risparmiare tempo e fare scelte radicali!

And balanced on the biggest wave, you race towards an early grave(ty)
Film bellissimo perché, seppur fintissimo (tutto CGI), è verissimo. L'unico film che ho visto in cui lo strombazzatissimo 3D ha un senso e che da senso allo strombazzaterrimo 3D. Tecnicamente e visivamente impressionante. Storia un po' forzata ma è inevitabile, visto che si tratta solo di geniali piani sequenza continuati basati su campi lunghi (milioni di chilometri) mescolati a secchi primissimi piani di un'unica attrice. Un'attrice, Sandra Bullock, contro la Terra, lo Spazio, la Morte, contro ogni Elemento... Peccato sia uguale a Corinne Clery.
***** su 5 stelle. Ma nessuna Lode! Bravo Alfonso Cuaròn, eppure aspetto ancora il tuo capolavoro, dopo tali tuoi filmoni...

Gravity: actually the French, old and annoying actress Corinne Clery (from Italian Tv reality show "Pechino Express") lost in space, featuring George Clooney as her "Fiancé".
This is a beautiful movie because it's super-fake (all CGI) but super-true. The only movie I saw in which I understand the sense of ever-hyped 3D, giving sense to the ultra-hyped 3D. Technically and visually striking. The story is a little strained but it's something in a way unavoidable: just made up of never-stopping and brilliant cinematic long-takes, based on long-shots (millions of miles long) mixed with dry, full close-ups of only one actress. One actress, Sandra Bullock, against Earth, Space, Death, against every Element... It's a pity she's the same as Corinne Clery.
***** out of 5 stars. But no Honour! Great Alfonso Cuaròn, and yet I'm still waiting for a masterpiece, after so many big movies of yours...

The Dome Boom

I just finished to read again Under the Dome, Stephen King's massive but super-speedy 2009 novel. After the upsetting experience of the first reading (at the time when it came out), I took it again to understand why the long-awaited CBS Tv adaptation by Brian K. Vaughan is disappointing me so much. Well... the Tv series is actually slow and dumb, shallow and repetitive; but the original book is, on the contrary, really dry, fast, surprising and disturbing. I loved this second reading even more than the first one. How can such a literary masterpiece be reduced to the television rubbish they inflicted us? They tried in any way to spoil every wonderful character and the incredibile logical-narrative structure of the dome itself. Down in the Homepage the Poll about the Tv series is still available...
