Love, Death & Robots: Ice (2021)
They're speaking Portuguese, and using slang!
The language they're speaking is Portuguese, from Portugal, not Brazil.
It makes sense, as we're a country of immigrants.
Nevertheless, "Venga", meaning "Come!", is spanish...Portuguese is "Vêm (singular) " ou "Venham" (plural).
Love Life (2020)
Great series, but...where is the darn cat?
This series was better than I expected, with a luminous and very talented Anna Kendrick and a very good supporting cast, and the last three episodes were especially strong, but my one nag is (perhaps) futile, but it nevertheless struck me as some kind of script laziness: where is Wolfgang? The cat that Augie finds in the subway, in episode nine that he brings home?
Maybe it struck me as odd, because I'm a cat lover, but he's never mentioned again the the series. Did he died? He's he with Augie? Did they gave him away? Did they throw him out in the rain, like Audrey Hapburn does to Cat, in Breakfast at Tiffany's? Was he a methapor for Darby willingness to finally take charge of her life and responsability for another human being? Did the scripwriters simply forgot about him?
Well, maybe I have too much time in my hands, but anyone who had (and loved her/his) pets know the're not simply plot devices.
Anyway, great show, congratulations, and I really hope Wolfgang is doing ok in the mean streets of New York City.
Vacanze col gangster (1952)
Wrong date of release in the title
The year of release of this film is 1952, not 1954. You have the date of release in Italy as 1952, so why the 1954 in the title? There is no way to correct this error in the "Edit Page", it's a bit kafkian, as the error is in the date after the title, but on the "Title Correction" section, it's not possible for the correction to be accepted, because the title is right, and they don't allow for correction of the date... Help!!!
Now Us (2016)
Something evil is lurking in the North of Portugal...
An interesting effort in the vein of The Exorcist and The Omen (and also reminding me of some of the more "devilish" efforts of Hammer), with the unique flavor of the North, a region in Portugal well known for its inhabitants' heresies!!! The main actor is brilliant, interpreting a man of the cloth, as well as a more mundane man, a man of the world, and a man in touch with his parishioners (as well as with nature, which is portrayed in a very pantheistic fashion).
But something evil is lurking beneath the surface, and all is not what it seems...
