Sem direção, A350.
I got to tell you I’m feeling just the right
Minimal to maximal amount of shattered by life
My brain reads like an open book
I shack up from the walking plank
I travel down the mighty rocky road
A heavy weight upon my broken bones

“The body is, ultimately, the grounding element of the films on this list and action cinema in general. An effective action scene is intensely physical, and it is a physicality complexly mediated by vision: action seen on a screen, bodies viewed from a level of physical remove and yet, through different filmmaking choices, to which our own bodies are brought viscerally near.” :: https://mubi.com/notebook/posts/the-action-scene-best-of-2020
“Ultimately, both these more purposeful constructed sequences and all of the people-watching are of a single piece, part of a panorama of the 21st-century American experience as surviving in a state of near-total discombobulation, where paranoia and powerlessness rules the day.” :: https://mubi.com/notebook/posts/urban-warriors-and-anarcho-flaneurs-john-wilson-and-luc-moullet
The Eddy, S01.
Algumas cenas dessa série conseguem materializar o sentimento de ser um expatriado em uma capital europeia. Tudo é bom, tudo é confuso. Todo mundo se entende em francês, inglês, polonês, árabe, jazz. As coisas seguem em frente, impreterivelmente. Fica a teu cargo decidir seguir ou não. Outras cenas dessa série quebram teu coração. Amira, Jude, Farid, Katarina. Baita personagens. Em certo momento o protagonista, Elliot (André Holland, irritavelmente perfeito) diz que ele primeiro acostumou a deixar a si mesmo para trás. Daí, se acostumou a deixar outras pessoas para trás também. The Eddy é sobre várias coisas, mas talvez a mais importante para mim seja essa: o que deixamos faz tanta parte da gente quanto o que decidimos levar adiante.

“It’s important, I think, to have humility about our perceptions and capabilities. Meditators eventually realize this: not just that we are limited, but also that we interdependent in ways that are not always clear to us. And any one person’s perception of reality should be taken with a block of salt.” :: https://people.well.com/conf/inkwell.vue/topics/510/State-of-the-World-2021-page03.html#post63
