UnderTow

For: Rodrigo Videla M

The film from the American director (David Gordon Green), who shows us through this story, the quiet life of a widower with his children and how they may be disturbed by the appearance of a guest who was not in the plans. John (Dermot Mulroney) brings a calm to be with their children Chris, played by Jamie Bell (Billy Elliot) and Tim, represented by Devon Alan. His life away from civilization on a farm in Georgia, is disrupted by the arrival of the brother of John, Uncle Deel (Josh Lucas), who, feigning a friendly attitude with his nephews and brother, intended, after leaving the prison, to take revenge for past outstanding issues and take an old family treasure.

The protagonist of the film goes on the shoulders of the brothers Chris and Tim, when Uncle Deel kills in a cold and ruthless to his brother, after a tough discussion which exposes the true personality of the character interpreted by Josh Lucas. The wickedness and thirst for revenge for past events, forcing teenage brothers to flee quickly from the farm to build a new life with the old family treasure in his possession, the item that begins the persecution of Deel psychopath to his young family.

It is from the radical change of ownership where concepts begin to emerge, leading and psychological side of the film. The innocence of two children takes them on a journey with many shades of adventure without risk, taking into account that consistently pursues evil entity. This situation makes us feel part of the maturity of the brethren, that in this attempt at survival, seem to improve very fast to what is a necessary development due to the loss of a father figure.

Donnie Darko

For Franco Arriagada



Enigmatic, fascinating and unique. In many ways these could be called DonnieDarko, shot in 2001 and directed by Richard Kelly. This psychological thriller tells the story of Donnie, a teenager with an apparent sleepwalking and paranoid schizophrenia. Due to this condition, Darko has terrifying visions of a rabbit namedFrank. In one of the many occurrences of the sinister character, he tells theprotagonist that the world will end in 28 days, 6 hours, 42 minutes and 12 seconds.


With this pressure, Donnie is immersed in an atmosphere in which she has mental voyages contrast with retracted his personalityAt the same time, Frank-intepretedby James Duval-Darko gives indications as it appears. These requests are becoming ever more extreme, anticipating events that are to occur.




Notable among such scenes difficult to understand, the participation of actors likePatrick Swayze, who plays a sort of false spiritual guidance and Barrimore Drew, who plays a teacher who repeatedly appears throughout the film. Also, theprotagonist, Jake Gyllenhaal (Brockebakck Mountain, The Day After Tomorrow), is brilliant, giving life to a Donnie increasingly affected by the appearances of Frank and the orders he gives.



The most salvageable of the tape: forcing the viewer to think and constantly have tobuild the story, considering that not even the protagonist knows, at first, like putting together the complicated puzzle. A puzzle that has to do with destiny and the abilityto accept or bending Donnie hand.



Title: Donnie Darko, duración: 115 minutos. Reparto: Jake Gyllenhall, Patrick Swayze, Drew Barrymore, Noah Wyle, James Duval. Director: Richard Kelly

Maybe  is not a movie for someone one who likes Electronic or pop music , but if you are into music and no necessarily into  music of Zeppelin ,U2, The With Stripes , you will find fun to watch , and if you are  a guitar player , wath are you waiting for? But careful cause it might get really loud.

USA Style.

Por Rodrigo Videla

In my opinion what happened at ground zero during the celebration of the death of Osama Bin Laden was at the USA style. But I think this comes to close a cycle in U.S. history because they have achieved one of its most important, the death of the head of the attacks of 27f

On the other hand we have the feeling that this is not the end of this war because with the death of Bin Laden we only have to wait what will be the reaction of al-Qaida and terrorist groups, we hope that the peace arrive to the people of U.S. And finally they could live without fears.

succeed on its own merits, not by death of others.

 Franco Arriagada

All nations go through various crises. It's part of history. But what happened in the U.S. ten years ago reminds us how close may be in danger. I agree to the nations become great empires of development? that power attracts the first world Teror? Clearly not even the people of America know the answer. Many still doubt whether what happened that fateful September 11 was the work of Osama Bin Laden, or if this was part of an inside job, a rumor that has not stopped touring the world until today.

Americans must accept that the death of Osama Bin Laden, only momentarily satisfying the thirst for revenge that might have accumulated over many years. I mean the one hand, this death does not return anything lost. No death does. And much less if anyone still wants to believe 100% in the members of the Casablanca. Had it not been the terrorist leader, the author of the terrorist attacks on the twin towers, we would be the biggest conspiracy in world history.

It is expected that U.S. residents do not give it terminated due to a single death. They suffered many more. All you have to do is make their lives around peace and hope that sooner or later the truth was known, and that these concepts are transformed into

What a wonderful world


For Tamara Peralta Aguilera.

A decade ago, United States of America (USA) was faced with a major terrorist attack, the largest that ever happened. In it, he lost thousands of lives and revealed the vulnerability of the political, social and economic development which is exposed in the world. 

The media around the world covered this story and people regardless of race or ethnicity, witnessed a big fall. 


At 10 years of lost souls thousands of questions relating to this fact seem to be getting bigger, since many crises are seen as opportunities to start from scratch and be reborn from the ashes. 

"There are many historical events in which the orchestra then fakes an inside job or to start a war or have a police state, Adolf Hitler burned the Reichstag to implement the police state and blame their enemies. President Roosevelt had foreknowledge of the attack on Pearl Harbor, which was the necessary excuse to enter World War II " (http://pijamasurf.com/2011/09/diez-anos-del-11-s-las-claves-de-la-mas-grande-conspiracion-de-nuestra-epoca/) 

So who says that this terrorist attack was not work, then, George Bush and a few more subjects? Why not tell a story in which American power position themselves against the rest of the world as happened with the supposed arrival of man on the moon in 1969, while living a dual political world where communism and capitalism were the poles in question? The strongest wins. 

USA has always sought to demonstrate its hegemony over the rest and thus is willing to do anything to get a maximum recognition. 

Today, Americans feel even more proud to belong to a country which, besides being a world power, it gives to the world the ability to overcome obstacles, to move forward even though the outlook is adverse to any fall get up and demonstrate that they are invincible ..? 

While, Obama continues to make news for the operation of the death of Bin Laden, believed that killing is good, subsequent abuses of power, rape, several clerics blasphemy and promiscuous, beautiful birds and destruction of living beings, people living on the streets and eating garbage, children with no direction or destination, sister nations declaring war, as they say Louis Armstrong "What a wonderful world ..." 

God bless America!
