DVD (2006)
A freak in love
"DVD" is a really funny short film. Although the story is not the most original story in the world, the director (Ciro Altabás) knows how to make it original. He adds a really special style, based on the DVDs' menus, extras and options.
César Camino (the lead actor) makes the best performance of this short. It's also fair to emphasize the job of Manuel Tallafé (specially his performance singing the original song of the short film, "Copyright for love").
If you have the chance, see this short, the Official Short Film of the Freak Pride. You can see "DVD" on Google Video.
Cuenta atrás (2007)
Plot turns
"Cuenta atrás" is a really good TV series. The direction has his own style, a really dynamic style. The cinematography is quite good (not the typical cinematography of a TV series). The music intensifies the scenes, filling them of action. The scripts aren't the typical police stories. The stories are full of plot turns. You can't imagine what will be the end of the chapter. It's a hard TV series too, full of drama. The cast is quite good, emphasizing the actresses Teresa Hurtado de Ory and Bárbara Lennie (specially the first one).
To sum up, "Cuenta atrás" is a great TV series. Hard, brutal, unpredictable, visceral. You can't miss it.
