“When I Die, My Money’s Not Gonna Come With Me. My Movies Will Live On For People To Judge What I

Sólo quiero ser feliz, sólo eso pido, tal vez también pida una pizza y unos tacos, pero primero la felicidad, no puedo comer con depresión

from American McGee's Alice and Alice: Madness Returns

"I've heard self-relience is a virtue. Now, you've heard it."

"I suppose experience teaches best. Learn by doing and similar clichés have merit."

"Haste makes waste, so I rarely hurry."

"Reject only your ignorance and you may survive."

"A blunderbuss in the hands of a blockhead is a catastrophe waiting to happen."

"What resides beneath this betina of civility? Something wicked, I wager."

"For every task there's a proper tool, sometimes more than one."

"Those who say there's nothing like a nice cup of tea for calming the nerves never had real tea."

"How fine you look when dressed in rage!"

"Threats, promises, and good intentions don't amount to action."

"Every adventure requires a first step, trite, but true."

"When the remarkable turns bizarre, reason turns rancid."

"What is sought is most often found, if it is truly sought."

"Only a few find the way, some don't recognize it when they do, some don't ever want to."

"There's an ugly name for those who do things the hard way."

"Only the foolish believe suffering is just wages for being different. Only the savage regard the endurance of pain as the measure of worth. Only the insane equate pain with success."

"The steps to enlightenment brighten the way, but the steps are steep. Take them one at a time."

"Seeking refuge from the wicked world? Perhaps things only look like they've gone to hell."

"Seek and ye shall find, they say, but they don't say what you'll find."

"A reflection sometimes exposes more reality than the object it echoes."

"Back to admire your handiwork? Returning to the scene of the crime."

"Memories define our lives, and they renew us. Collect them, nurture them. An experience forgotten never was."

"Are you feigning ineptitude or is your mind in a muddle?"

"Some obstacles are overcome with the mind, some, with our heart."

"Different denotes neither bad nor good but it certainly means not the same."

BAD BUNNY

Trozos de una libreta rota abandonada por un escritor

Mi vida está llena de hombres, de vicios, de exceso, de alcohol, de drogas, cada noche, cada madrugada, hay un poco de emoción, de ilusión, de insalubridad…que siempre termina en soledad, cuando comienzan a salir los rayos de sol también comienzan a levantarse las ropas, a lavarse los sudores, a amarrarse las agujetas, tirarse los vasos desechables, las servilletas, los condones, las colillas de cigarro… y se enciende esa última bachita para conciliar el sueño un ratito más, dos horas para comenzar a fingir que tienes una vida normal, que las letras te salen, que te inspiras en la ciudad, cuando en realidad son tus loqueras vomitando letras en el papel, el dolor, el vacío, el miedo, la soledad…un puñado de mis dolores de cabeza, de las resacas, de los abandonos, de ese beso, ese orgasmo que me rolan o que me cambian por dinero, para amanecer solo, un poco más roto, un poco más triste, un poco más viejo.

La parranda, “eres el hombre divertido”, “eres lo que me admiro”, “eres todo lo que yo quisiera ser”, humo, eso soy, puro humo, una máscara que jamás termina de ocultar mi dolor, el hombre triste que en realidad soy.

The Witch (2015) // Hereditary (2018)

I would like to applaud Dan Gilroy for low-key including a “Donnie Darko” sequence in “Nightcrawler” without ANYONE noticing. If you know “Donnie Darko” you know what that scene is about. You don’t see the plane, but you HEAR it. The plane might be the plane whose engine later comes crashing down in his attic. But it might just be a big metaphor that something bad is about to happen. You know, directors speak a language in pictures.

There is absolutely no plausible reason as to why Lou would look up the sky at night after just having watched a burning car other than this being a DD reference (or an airport nearby but then again WHY would a director choose to include such a senseless sequence that has nothing to do with the actual plot). This cinematographic moment wouldn’t make any sense unless you know of Jake’s other movies. Besides, Donnie’s conscience is Frank. The only one conscious in Nightcrawler is Frank. Donnie Darko is used as a Halloween movie. Nightcrawler got released October 31, 2014, on Halloween. 

That is why, kudos Dan, you really did it.
