BROWNING
I don't want to bother him unnecessarily but I know he...

FATHER
Robert! I've told you to keep out the damn!

MAURICE LASHES OUT, KNOCKING things from his bedside table. A
NURSE calms Maurice as Fischer crouches to retrieve a FRAMED
PHOTOGRAPH. He looks at the photo through the broken glass a
YOUNG BOY holds a PINWHEEL CLEARLY MADE BY A CHILD (each of
the points is numbered in pen), his FATHER blows on it.


BROWNING
Must be a cherished memory of his.

FISCHER

I put it by his bed. He hasn't even noticed.

What I mean...

Well, here I come with another of my strange reasonings: the awkward moment in which you realize your life is beginning to seem as the one of a movie character. I've had a lot of these moments, but right now, now that I've got an entry about him down, I want to talk about how secretly today, I discovered I had several things in common with Fischer Jr. (well actually, with every single character I fucking meet, but anyway), when having some minutes with my mother.

So, we were talking about stuff which is going to be sold, I heard her say that all the money we'll get from MY BELONGINGS was going to be destined to my tuition, obviously I didn't say a thing, but come on! Isn't my scholarship of 90% enough to avoid it? I mean, she isn't even is the one paying, why can that money stay with me? And then I began thinking about those moments, those Maurice-Robert moments I've suffered, maybe I'm exaggerating, because actually the relationship with my mom is excellent, but this is a thought I don't want to forget. 

When I was a little kid, everything I did was praised according to my own effort, and I really worked hard. I was often congratulated, I received the acknowledgement or an occasional reward. The past "me" studied more than the rest of the class, got top grades and obtained prizes for every single competition I was in. And then, the most valuable goal I had made its appearance, I won a scholarship -yeah, the one I mentioned before- for secondary school. Every single person I knew was happy for me, and I was happy for my family, because probably for the first time in my life, I could help with the economic situation.

I know that school is very important, and that my obligation is studying, I've always been responsible, and I tend to reject invitations from my friends, mostly because of my decision rather than from my family. By my own trial, I determined I could chill out just a bit, when entering to high school, after all those years of arduous work. But, it was much more strenuous, the workload was much more intensified, and the homework piles up so much that I barely have time for myself. After all, my grades are always fairly good, and I maintain a decent average. My mother seems to be no longer impressed by what I achieve, it doesn't matter if the Spanish teacher considers my narration as the best one, it comes unnoticed when my Science exam grade is spectacular, well, not even if my social skills are improving, IT DOESN'T MATTER, because I am not in the falling standards of my mother anymore, there won't be an exemption with maths, I'm not good at them and presumably I will never be, but it also doesn't matter, my grade must get better.

Well, I also know she also works very hard, she has always been like that, probably is the person I ever knew to work like she does, after my grandma I must say. But sometimes I wish it was like years ago, when we were more happy, when we didn't have to worry, I want to stop thinking she is disappointed, to make her proud of me...

Leaving all this aside, and making it a little merrier, you should take a look at: http://iamdisappoint.com/, is a meme thing you would like. Also, I've been looking for the most perfect photos of Marion for the icons, be patient please!

As I was saying, not so long ago, I got a fixation with Christopher Nolan's films, one of them is Inception. And this morning I decided I was going to make some icons of the entire cast, the first chosen one, as you may see, is Cillian Murphy, or Robert Fischer Jr., or The Mark or whatever you want... Cillian [It's "Killian" not "Sillian" by the way] is just a wonderful Irish actor with beautiful baby blue eyes. I haven't decided yet who is going to be the next one, maybe the lovely Marion.

Creo que hace bastante que no actualizaba...
Como algunos sabrán, en estas vacaciones he dedicado mi cabeza y algo de mi esfuerzo mental en cosas sólo de esparcimiento, mucho cine por ejemplo, y es que de repente me ha surgido una fijación con las películas del magnífico Chris Nolan, que sólo Dios sabe porqué me traumo de semejante forma.

Y hoy, bueno hoy es el día, sí: el día que fui al cine a ver Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows Part 2. La verdad es que había esperado por este filme demasiado tiempo. Todavía recuerdo la primera vez que supe de la saga de J.K. Rowling, supongo que fue por el 2002, cuando un día una de mis tías llegó a casa con la primera película, el punto es que quedé fascinada por la historia y ya a la media hora andaba pensando en el mundo de Hogwarts. No sabría decir con exactitud como hice para ver la segunda cinta, aunque es cierto que con esa, los "malos" se ganaron un lugar en mi corazoncito, si es que así se le puede llamar. The Prisoner of Azkaban, esa ya la fui a ver al cine, cabe mencionar que fue un regalo de cumpleaños y es probable que sea una de mis favoritas, Cuarón hizo literalmente magia, y a partir de ahí yo ya era de agudizar el oído con la banda sonora, sigo teniendo entre mi música la composición de John Williams: Buckbeak's Flight, que es hermosísima. La cuarta parte, apareció en un verano en donde iba al cine cada fin de semana, y tampoco me defraudo pues todavía tengo por ahí el álbum de estampas que alguien me regaló, nunca lo completé por cierto. Yo ya había leído el tercer libro, el quinto libro, el sexto libro [uno de los primeros que me atreví a leer en inglés, y que me trajo mi padre], pero estaba por ser anunciado el último. Moví cielo, mar y tierra para apartarlo y tenerlo en mis manos el mismo día que debería salir. Lo acabé en un día y medio, y releí aquellos capítulos que me encantaron. Cuando The Order of Phoenix salió, y la pude ver, ya me gustaba amenazar gente con contarles el final. Esperaba que la sexta película fuera de mis preferidas como había ocurrido con el libro, aunque no fue tanto así. Hablar de la primera parte de The Deathly Hallows me es un poco melancólico, tuve que vera como seis meses después, pues cuando ésta se estrenó en el cine, mi abuelo estaba en el hospital, y bueno, es una historia triste que podré contar otro día... Pero creo que me desvié un poco del tema, estaba comentando acerca del día de hoy.

Estaba emocionada aunque no se me notaba tanto, total me levanté muy temprano porque había decidido apartar los boletos para la primera función del sábado, y ahí estaba contemplando a los niñitos que se tomaban fotos con su uniforme, sus bufandas y sus lentes, un pensamiento algo maléfico me cruzó por la mente pero mejor hice como si no pasara nada, total, ya iba a entrar a verla. Sí, por cierto, esperaba con ansias terribles que me pusieran algún trailer de TDKR, pero ni sus luces, uno de Isabella Swan y su boda, otro de Tintin y el último del Capitán América. En los primeros minutos de la película todo iba bien, pero después de que Voldemort y Nagini se citaron con Snape, yo ya empecé a soltar unas lagrimitas, lloré, lloré, lo admito ante la humanidad, Alan Rickman hizo que chillara, como imaginé que lo haría. Luego con Fred, y siguieron Tonks y Remus, la escena de ellos dos, fue idéntica a como mi cabeza la formó cuando la leí. Creo que paré el llanto hasta que se reanudaron las peleas. Neville y Luna fueron un WIN perfecto. Harry, Ron y Hermione, qué puedo escribir acerca de ellos, son unos de mis protas queridos. El epílogo muchos creen que pudieron haberlo evitado, pero varios fans se hubieran quedado con las ganas de verlo con sus propios ojos. Total, salí de la sala con sentimientos encontrados, el fin de una era de la que fui parte. No puedo decir mucho más, me parece que es un cierre digno, maravilloso que hasta estremeció mis "casi-poco-nada-a-veces" sensibles fibras. La vería muchas otras veces más, está muy claro que va a recibir los honores de ser nominada por la Academia a algún premio como homenaje, si lo va a ganar, no lo sé. Pero tengan por seguro que se quedará en mi memoria por siempre.

So, last week I was watching over again The Sopranos, the first episode, the scene of the ducks, the next scene...
 


Dr. Melfi: Do you feel depressed?
Tony Soprano: Since the ducks left. I guess.
Dr. Melfi: The ducks that preceded your losing consciousness. Let's talk about them. [...] What about ducks?
Tony Soprano: Those goddamned ducks.
Dr. Melfi: What is it about those ducks that meant so much to you?
Tony Soprano: It was just a trip havin' those...wild creatures come...into my pool and have their little babies. I was sad to see'em go.
 
 

When I first saw this part, I didn't even felt sad, but now I feel identified with Tony Soprano, I understand Dr. Melfi's explanation about how the fucking ducks represent family. I know that fear, the growing fear of losing your loved ones, as if danger was just waiting.
 
Sigh.

I was just babbling around and I found a pic of Jessica Stam, her beauty is stunning and gave me the icon mood (?)
So, I made some, hope you like them. By the way, if you have any request I will consider it openly.
