La vaquilla ( the Heifer ) by Luis García Berlanga. A spanish comedy with the action placed during the Spanish Civil War
A film that is perfect for Donks. One of the characters even has his name. :p

Thanks gadjilupe :kiss: :bandit:
my missus was pissing herself a moment ago... she didn’t know what I was watching and kept hearing my name being called :D
another Spanish classic from 1985, not to be confused with “yo, el vaquilla” btw. :p
I was still in Madrid back then, an amazing place in the 80’s, when I was young and before the clan of the marquesa took over. Quite a few of the images in the film remind me in part of the esperpento you can still see today...
:D :D :D
Unfortunately it was the last movie of the series Clasicos contigo.
Last weekend I watched La Buena Estrella by Ricardo Franco.
Anyway I'm happy that I could watch so many classics.
Based on what I saw in these movies ( and not only in these classics) I must confess that I'm amazed ( in a positive way ) by the Spanish family relationships. Such things could never happen in absurdistani society.
Someone suggested that I go see Tenet. Has anyone here seen it? Is it worth the time and ticket?
Tonight I watched a wonderful movie from 1998: The Legend of 1900 ( La leggenda del pianista sull'oceano ) by Giuseppe Tornatore. As wonderful as his previous movie, Cinema Paradiso. I'm afraid that words can't express the emotion I felt watching it. And Tim Roth is perfect playing a fantastic pianist on the board of a boat where he was abandoned as a newborn baby and who never in his life set foot on land.
And now from Clasicos contigo to a new cycle of Spanish movies: Nuevas cinefilias.
This weekend's offer is Ver a una mujer ( To see a woman ) by Monica Rovira.
After a long pause I finally went out to see a movie. Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn is a Romanian movie directed by Radu Jude and is this year's winner of the Golden Bear at the Berlin Film Festival.( A few years ago I presented on this thread another Radu Jude's movie ( Aferim!), also a winner of the Silver Bear at the same festival).
The film is very provocative and not because of its more than explicit sex scenes ( hey! do you remember when a certain forum member said that my fav movie genre is soft porn? :laugh: well, this is more than soft ) or its obscene language. The real shock comes from the image of today's Romania. Because at the end of the day this movie is a social satire.

El extraño viaje" (1964), by Fernando Fernán-Gómez
These old spanish movies continue to amaze me.
Or maybe it is because I'm but an old fart....
