En ese pueblo donde el viento del norte vuelve locos a los ancianos en sus sillas de mimbre

The party last night was cool, even if Karen (teh best friend) left early with her boyfriend since she had another party. I looked kinda lame since everyone went overboard with their costumes (with till I upload the picture of the guy that went as Jack Sparrow O_o My, it was awesome) but it was all kinds of fun. We drove to a 7-eleven-alike store ( Read more... )

Oh, yay! I'm glad you had such a good time :-D I'm so proud of you for trying to steal a car! *sniffles with pride*

We're watching an Almodovar film in my film class in a couple weeks... unfortunately that means I have to sit in the front row so I can read the subtitles :-P

BTW: I've heard that SPN will be on reruns again in just another 4 weeks. :(

Haha, I'm so proud of myself as well XD

Do you know which movie? I haven't watched many of his early ones, but I really like ¡Átame! (Tie Me Up!), which is pretty much the sole decent film Antonio Banderas has been in O_o Haha, Almodovar is awesome, I'm sure you'll love it. :)

;-; For how many weeks?

Ummm the English title is "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown." I'm gonna have to rent it, though, as I can't get to sleep tonight and there's no way in hell I'm gonna make it to an 8 a.m. class. *headdesk*

Not sure... my guess is that it won't be back till January, so probably 6-7 weeks. :(

Ah, I've heard nothing but praise from that one, although I've never watched it myself. Tell me about it when you do see it. :)

That long? ;-; How am I going to survive SPN-less?? O_o

BWHAHA, WE FINALLY GET SOMETHING BEFORE THE STATES!! *grin* Just like with El Laberinto del Fauno, and Babel comes out in November 10 in here. BWHAHAHA, I say. But really, thinking about it, must of the most expected films this season have been by Spanish-talking folk... ODD. BUT ME LIKES.

Ooooh, it is amazing. It's such a step up from Hable de Ella, which I never understood the frenzy about. It's good but kinda meh, you know? and I still haven't seen La Mala Educacion... Haha, I was mostly, uugh, it has Tom Cruise in it. Should I go see it? ...Naaaah. *g* My mom saw it (Abre los Ojos, I mean) and said it was real tricky but good. *shrug*

Still, Guillermo del Toro deserves the Oscar better. *cheers for her city's resident genious*

I'D MISSED YOU, MY MOVIE-BUDDY.

Volver was great, saw it a few weeks ago.

P. Cruz *is* Spanish. Why would she exaggerate her own accent? :)

I know that, she exagerates her accent while talking in English. It sounds pretty bad, if you ask me.

No tengo perdón y aun no he visto Volver (lo haré en cuanto la reestrenen), así que no puedo opinar. No dudo de la genialidad de Almodóvar, pero me disgusta un poco que sea el único director (junto con Amenabar) español que se promocione fuera del país, sobretodo porque me he encontrado con gente que cree que todos los españoles somos tan folkloricos como los personajes de Almodóvar *eyeroll*

De todas maneras, es quien retrata mejor esa parte de España. Tu abuela era de aquí, por cierto? :O

Eso es lo malo, que solo ciertos directores pueden salir de su país - y te aseguro que medio mundo cree que somos todos como en Y Tu Mamá También, y si bueno, si somos groseros, pero no taaaanto. Por cierto, que ha hecho Amenabar ultimamente? Me agradan sus peliculas. Pero siiiii, ve Volver. Pero sigo queriendo ver Salvador, para ver quien se merecía la nominación más XD

Nop, lo que digo es que las casas, la gente, digase, hasta las sillas de mimbre que salen en el pueblito has de cuenta que es lo mismo que en los pueblitos de aqui - por eso digo que me recordó muchísmo la casa de mi bisabuelita en el pueblito donde vivía. :)

Bueno, tiene sus ventajas. Todo lo que aprendí sobre slang mexicano lo aprendí de Y Tu Mamá También. Ahora digo "chingar" más de la cuenta XD

Sobre quien se merecía más la nominación, será cuestión de comentarlo cuando hayamos visto las dos. Intuyo que me seguirá gustando más Salvador por el simple hecho que el tema me interesa/llega más. Pero es cierto que he oído más críticas negativas de Salvador que de Volver, sobretodo porque hay gente que cree que es demasiado fuerte y que juega demasiado con la sensibilidad de los espectadores.

Esas sillas de mimbre las tenía yo en mi casa de chiquitina! Creo que aun nos queda alguna. También me recuerdan a mi pueblito :)

Jaja, el otro día en un super se me cerró la puerta automática encima (y pegó gacho, la verdad), y pues de la sorpresa me salió automático gritar 'Ah, chingada!' enfrente de mi mamá y una señora con sus dos niñitos chiquitos XDD La señor me volteo a ver bien, pero bien feo *g* Y lo curioso del asunto, es que la raíz etimológica de chingar, viene de violar O_o

Esa es la cosa, que generalmente a la gente no le gusta ver películas tan pesadas, y pues se van por la cosa fácil. Como todos los pubertos estúpidos que les gusta American Pie. *eyeroll*

your grandma is taking care of her grave as well?

Nah, it's just that her house in the little town she lived in was pretty much alike to the ones in the movie. :)
