Nah!! let's just stay in and watch some movies...

Since forever I've been a movie freak, I love movies, all kinds of movies, and it's until now I'm starting to see, wich of all are my favorites movies, it's funny cuz' I didn't realize how good was my memory untill now, but all this movies that left a mark in my memory since a child make me wonder "what where you doing at that moment Daniel?" and I try to remember what age was I when I saw it, a little bit of research on the movies helps me, cuz' they give me years and I can crate from there a time line, today I see where all the bullshit in my head and my so called "general culture" came from, there is a bunch of things I don't know how they got into my mind (scratching my head), however, it is nice to bring back all those good memories, cuz' they take me to great moments in my life, for example I recently saw "National Lampoon's Vacation" (1983) starring Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo, to see the attitude of Clark's Character, it's to see the images of my own dad in every single trip I have take with him, a very fun person, always positive, not leaving nothing ever dampens his spirits (apart from the physical resemblance my dad and chevy have) the movie show an average middle class family, that decides to go on a road trip across all the united states, coast to coast, having a numberless of adventures, visiting family along the way, and with an schedule to see the largest rubber ball in Texas and such things, Clark has the hability of either entertain or worry his family, all of this to get to Wallyworld (a theme park Disneyland like), this movie is a classic american comedy, but as we all know a dad it's the same here than it is in any part of the world, wich givs the movie familiar effect. Another good movie is "Le Grand Bleu" or "The Big Blue" (1988) starring Jean Reno (french guy in Godzilla with Mathew Broderick) wich is about 2 divers Jaques Mayol and Enzo Molinari wich compite since they were little to be the best diver in the world, Jaques lost his father and had an encounter with a dolphins while he was a child, since then he lives in a dream world in wich he talks, dreams and interact with dolphins, he considers them his family, a newyorker insurence agent, Jhoana falls in love with the frenchman, meanwhile, Enzo is the World's Champion in diving, and he wants to beat Jaques cuz' he knows he's better than him, this rivalry comes from their childhood when they both grew up in Greece, the movie is rich in lenguages, they speak italian, spanish, french, and english, and it takes you to known places suck as Sicily, New York, Perú, Greece, among others, another great film is "Hidalgo" (2004) starring Vigo Mortesen (Aragorn in Lord of the Rings) where he plays a role of Frank T. Hopkins, an american that with his horse, a mustang called Hidalgo, became legendary in resistence races in the US, and they are invited to participate in the "Ocean of Fire" race in Arabia resistence race, across the arabian desert, against the Sheikh of Sheikhs (played by Omar Sharif) and his all time winner horse, Al Hattal (I like how that name sounds), in such race Frank T. (Vigo) shows an incredible affection for his horse wich he calls "little brother" the plot has a twist, Frank T. was half white and half sioux, his father was a missionary and his mother was a native american, so he doesn't feel good among the white nor the sioux, his name in sioux s Hokshelato, wich means "Blue Child", and he speak english and sioux perfectly, the interesting thing about this movie it's that was a true history, Frank T. Hopkins did exist along with his horse, and they claimed to have won over 400 races in America, including the arabian one, also he was known for his fight for the mustang conservation, his horse decendents now live among the spanish mustang in the Gilbert Jones herd.
Anyway it's been a good weekend, spend it watching all those movies, I hope I can bring you some more reviews in the future, watch the movies if you like, try like once was said to Patch Adamms "see beyond", don't just watch a movie, do a little reaserch, remember your favorite films, see the year they where made, and think to yourself "what was i doing in that time?" "Where did i saw it?" "Who did i saw it with?" exercise your mind with memories and enjoy them, good and bad it doesn't matter.
