22nd May 2011 What Is Love?

• Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies.
• Love is that splendid triggering of human vitality the supreme activity which nature affords anyone for going out of himself toward someone else.
• Love is the beauty of the soul.
• Love is the foundation from which your decisions about your life should be made.
• Love isn't something you find. Love is something that finds you.
• Loving is not just looking at each other, it's looking in the same direction.
• Nobody has ever measured, not even poets, how much the heart can hold.
• People need loving the most when they deserve it the least.
• Sometimes the heart sees what is invisible to the eye.
• Take away love and our earth is a tomb.
• The best proof of love is trust.
• The degree of loving is measured by the degree of giving.
• The moment you have in your heart this extraordinary thing called love and feel the depth, the delight, the ecstasy of it, you will discover that for you the world is transformed.
• There is no disguise which can hide love for long where it exists, or simulate it where it does not.

22nd May 2011 Another Weekend Film - Bestezuelas

Bestezuelas is the name of the film. No idea what the word used as title means, not able to find it in the dictionary, but I think it might be better to call it 'Dogs & Losers', that's what the story is about, and more people would understand than a word difficult to remember and some might not even be able to pronounce it.

 

In present day Spain, between the fixed races at the greyhound track, in a world of outsiders, stolen money, and losers learning to start again. Sort of a thriller Com drama, establishing a parallelism between the greyhound race where the dogs chase a rabbit made of cloth-remnants, and individuals that also strive after false and unobtainable objectives or impossible aims. All that garnished with a love triangle.

 

It's rough and intense, with characters, born losers, who seek opportunities to lift them out of the hell hole. It incorporates Flamenco music that underlines what's happening in the way that the public is not the representation, but the represented. The theme is at least original. How often do you see films that have the greyhound race track as the main stage? The best, though risky, is strangely the murky atmosphere.

 

If you know what Bestezuelas means, would you please tell me?
