    Sabbatical 79/93

    Julia me pidió que la despertase pronto y poder repasar la geografía de Oceanía para el examen que tenía hoy. Luego, a media mañana, he llevado a Xelo y a su madre a Moixent a por el tren a Valencia. Después, estuve tocando un poco el violín y subí el video a Twitter. Al sacarlo…

  • Savageland (2015)

    Savageland (2015)

    I’m a little bit infactuated a 2015 mockumentary I found about recently: Savageland. Savageland is a 2015 American mockumentary horror film written and directed by Phil Guidry, Simon Herbert, and David Whelan, concerning a massacre on a US-Mexico border town that leaves every citizen dead except for an amateur photographer who is accused of committing…

    Sabbatical 63/93

    Domingo tranquilo. Por la mañana fui con Clara al mercado y Xelo estuvo haciendo lavadoras. Comimos en casa de la iaia y por la tarde vimos Le Dîner de cons (La cena de los idiotas). Antes de cenar, las niñas pusieron el árbol de Navidad.

    Sabbatical 49/93

    Por la mañana fuimos al Japan Weekend en la Feria de Valencia. Julia se lo pasó muy bien y Clara también. Por la tarde nos regalaron unas calabazas en agradecimiento a nuestro soporte técnico. Estoy pensando hacer galletitas de calabaza con ellas. Es mi postre favorito cuando vamos al Chino Misterioso en Bilbao. También comimos…

    Sabbatical 46/93

    Ayer me levanté con un poco de dolor de cabeza. Estuve un ratito pegándome con la importación de imágenes de la migración de datos de la web del ayuntamiento. Casi está listo pero le falta un par de detalles (concretamente asignar las imágenes destacadas). Con el dolor que tenía no conseguí avanzar gran cosa y…

    Sabbatical 42/93

    Quiet Sunday. We spent the morning doing chores in the house. After lunch, we watched Billy Wilder’s Sabrina (1954). Julia was a bit reluctant to watch it but she did watch it through. There were a few themes that felt old in the film, not the least of which the fact that Bogart is 52…

    Sabbatical 27/93

    The four of us drove to Valencia in the early morning so Julia could attend her AVAST classes. Later, we had pizza at Arena and bought some clothes for the girls. In the evening, we watched Edward Edward Scissorhands withe the girls. Julia already knew Winona Ryder from Stranger Things 🙂

  • Sabbatical 10/93

    Sabbatical 10/93

    It was a remarkably unproductive day. While trying to make PC games work on Julia’s 2010 iMac, I landed a «Browser Games» website and ended up spending two solid hours playing to the 1995 Warcraft II … ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ In the afternoon, I drove Julia to her French class, bought groceries and got a few things…

  • Sabbatical 9/93

    Sabbatical 9/93

    I took a short walk to el Arguillagar and back. We rewatched Woody Allen’s Mighty Aphrodite. It was watchable but it hasn’t aged great. I found hard to maintain my suspension of disbelief and I feel bad for Helena Bonham Carter, she got a raw deal with that role. I cooked lentils with vegetables and…

    A Late Quartet (2012): Pau Casals on Giving Feedback

    [When giving feedback] always emphasize what you like. And for the rest leave it to the ignorant and stupid who judge by counting only the faults. Paul Casals. I was browsing filmin.es looking for films featuring Philip Seymour Hoffman and ended up watching A Late Quartet. In it, Peter (Walken) relates to his class an anecdote…

  • Strasser/Blaine VS Greedo/Solo

    Strasser/Blaine VS Greedo/Solo

    According to Francesca Luisi from «The Pictures Got Small», the scene where Mayor Strasser gets shot by Rick Blaine was shot twice. Just before he shot Maj. Strasser (Conrad Veidt), Humphrey Bogart ad-libbed the line, «All right, Major, you asked for it.» But Hal B. Wallis pointed out that this made it look as though…

  • Groundhog Day: The Time Loop is NOT in Phil’s head!

    Groundhog Day: The Time Loop is NOT in Phil’s head!

    I was rewatching Groundhog day and noticed that at the end of the multiple suicides montage, there is a moment when we see Phil dead. This is this key because it shows that the temporal loop is not just a figment of Phil’s imagination and that the world continues to exist after he dies.

    Four Weddings and a Funeral: Deaf, lost, low-profile & unrequited love stories

    There are a number of moving love stories and interpretations on this film but none them come from the main story, which works just as a topical and mildly amusing backdrop for the actual central stories.

    The Imitation Game, Turing Machines & Enigma

    I decided to watch it out of my interest towards the History of Computing in general and Allan Turing‘s life in particular. I was also curious about Benedict Cumberbatch‘s portrayal of Turing.

    Hace tiempo que no teníamos tiempo para sentarnos a ver una película random en Filmin, pero hoy ha sido el día. En este tipo de casos prefiero no saber mucho sobre la película, de hecho procuramos no ver el trailer siquiera. Todo lo que sabíamos de ella era que era de Kaurismaki y que estaba en…
