Duelo, Amor y Universidad: Elogio de 'Big Boys'

Image
En su libro El año del pensamiento mágico (2005), Joan Didion escribió que «el poder del duelo para perturbar la mente ha sido (…) exhaustivamente observado». Parece que el duelo también puede crear la que posiblemente sea la mejor comedia británica de la última década: Big Boys (2022-2025) de Jack Rooke, una obra maestra semiautobiográfica que sigue las aventuras universitarias de Jack, mientras procesa la muerte de su padre y explora su sexualidad. La premisa es simple y, en teoría, incluso un cliché, pero la belleza y la excelencia de la escritura de Rooke radican en que Big Boys resulta familiar y, a la vez, singularmente genial, oscilando entre las referencias a la cultura pop de mediados de la década de 2010 y las brillantes y discretas exploraciones de la salud mental. La salud mental masculina es central en la serie, con el actor Jon Pointing, interpretando al típico universitario Danny, ofreciendo una de las exploraciones más conmovedoras y potentes sobre la depresión que he v...

La Batalla de la Secuela: Reseña de Gladiador 2

Gladiador 2 (2024) fue una de las películas más esperadas de 2024 y una secuela inesperada de Gladiador (2000), una de las películas más icónicas y elogiadas de todos los tiempos. La película obtuvo doce nominaciones al Óscar y cinco premios, con Russell Crowe recibiendo el Óscar a Mejor Actor por su interpretación de Maximus. Cuando Ridley Scott anunció polémicamente que dirigiría Gladiador 2, muchos fans de Gladiador dudaron de su capacidad para recuperar la magia de la primera película, y creo que sus dudas se confirmaron. Ridley Scott es el director de muchas películas clásicas como Alien (1979), Thelma y Louise (1991) y, por supuesto, Gladiador (2000). Sin embargo, en los últimos años, sus últimos proyectos parecen estar perdiendo calidad. Desde House of Cards (2021) hasta su película más reciente, Napoleon (2023), ambas fracasos de taquilla y fracasos de crítica y público, la filmografía de Scott, de 86 años, parece ir cuesta abajo. Sin embargo, esto no parece ser suficiente para...

Flow: An Adventure of Companionship in the Face of Adversity

The captivating and emotional storytelling of the Latvian animation Flow has touched children, environmentalists, and avid cat-lovers alike since its initial release in August of 2024. From the enchanting animation of the leafy overgrowth to the wonderful motion shots of surging waters, viewers are invited to feast their eyes upon strikingly beautiful animation, whilst the animals whose adventure we follow charm us with their unique characteristics, and blooming connections. The quiet beauty of the film captivated me, with its lack of dialogue not inhibiting the power of its message, but amplifying it. The animals are in no way anthropomorphised, a feature that many critics have commented on. The representation is truthful, whilst at the same time giving audiences the opportunity to relate to the attributes of these creatures. Not one moment is wasted in the hour and a half running time; every exchange and action acts as a collaboration to put forth the messages this film sets out to s...
