  a childhood  compass Può perdere il suo futuro nel passato, può spendere il suo tempo presente nel futuro. Può sempre esserci un po' di confusione sulle direzioni della vita o sulle decisioni da prendere. Ma è ovvio che ognuno sceglie la vita, preferisce vivere. Ma è importante discernere quale tipo di vita è meglio vivere. Guardate in alto verso i vostri antenati, guardate indietro alle storie di saggezza. Guardate al prossimo amico che pensa in pace, al familiare vicino che parla con calma. Possiamo perdere molto tempo a discutere dell'azzurro del cielo o delle dimensioni dell'infinito. Possiamo anche perderci sulla terra cercando di trovare la strada migliore per il cielo. Scrutando il senso della vita invece di vivere con uno scopo. Ma nel "dibattito sul cielo blu" almeno guarderemo tutti in alto. Con i piedi ben saldi a terra. E cercando di riconoscere il percorso della "via migliore" per continuare ad andare avanti, per andare avanti, per rimaner...

by Fernando Cruz Quintana Commemorative poster for  Memories of a Mexican (1950) , prepared for the celebrations of the Bicentennial of Independence and the Centennial of the Revolution in 2010.  The photographs above show, on the left, Salvador Toscano, and on the right, his daughter Carmen. Few cinematographic works can succinctly relate, in just a few hours, fifty years of national history. Memorias de un mexicano/Memories of a Mexican (Carmen Toscano, 1950) is probably the best example of a film that, through documentary images, reconstructs half a century of a country's past. "The best Mexican film" In 1950, one of the greatest films in the history of Mexican cinema (the adjective refers both to its artistic magnificence and the all-encompassing nature of its story), Memoirs of a Mexican , was presented in what was a true media phenomenon at the time. At the premiere, artists, politicians and intellectuals alike gathered: José Vasconcelos, Vicente Lombardo Toledano...

by  Evee Sandoval /Screenwriter & Producer🎬       Art is sensibility and thought, we are in contact with art from an early age through music, cinema, painting, dance and various disciplines that we experience at an early age. What changes in art over time is the way we experience it and relate to it. Photo by Matthieu Comoy on Unsplash If you have decided to dedicate yourself to an artistic profession, surely you have heard negative comments or misunderstandings about your way of life. Surely there were no doubts when you chose your artistic path and went against all opinions, but surely there were doubts in your professional path and above all in the way of how to apply it to make a full time living from art. THE VALUE OF ART There is a lot of talk about the devaluation of art, especially when it becomes difficult to make a full-time living from artistic work. I think that such a thing as not valuing art does not exist, rather it may be that each person has a ...

  A drawing-Script of Mahler's Symphony No. 5 Mov. 2 De claim is niet geweest om ideeën of gevoelens te verknoeien. Ieder is verantwoordelijk voor het opstellen van zijn eigen criteria. Maar de gevoelige uitdrukking van iemand die het waagt zou gemakkelijker zijn geweest niet alleen om meerdere schaakpartijen tegelijk te spelen, maar ook het verlaten van het bestuur besloten om elk mogelijk spelletje knikkers te winnen.  Een geheel dat hoog en dicht bij de grond was geëindigd. Alle geuite duidelijkheid werd met een grote test geconfronteerd; sommige uitersten moeten worden verzoend. Het is evenmin bedoeld om recht te doen aan de specifieke beschrijving van alles wat er is gebeurd. Maar op de een of andere manier was er iemand die zich voorstelde een getuige te zijn van het Alles wat er gebeurt, en hij besloot het uit te drukken met de nauwgezetheid die het beheersen van sommige vormen en nieuwe manieren om de best gewenste uitdrukking te eisen vereist. Misschien zullen we lat...

 (Extracts from an interview realized on FICM 2018 ) […] FICM: You have made several films based on novels. How is your adaptation process? BÉLA TARR : My first encounter with literature was Shakespeare's Macbeth . I did it in film school. It was my first movie, and then after that, I became a film student, and somehow I ignored the school and they allowed me to do what I wanted… My teacher told me: “You have to do some kind of adaptation, from another way, we will have to say goodbye to you, because this is a school ”. And I said, "Ok, let's do Macbeth, from Shakespeare ." And you know, when you read the text and understand the meaning, and of course, you have your own relationship with the work, and afterwards it was very easy because I only chose what I wanted to keep and what I wanted to leave out. And I focused only on one part of the drama, and then I used the text as in normal life, and somehow the actors spoke in a normal language. Later, when I read László Kr...
