Glória (2021)
It's hard to get through the first episode...
...and when you do it just gets worse.
Look more than anyone I want to support Portugal and all the new television and cinematic projects in which the country is investing.
Anyone who has watch the film "Herdade" knows how to recognize that the director Tiago Guedes has talent in this area.
The problem is that the script of 'Gloria' is banal, it does not explore the Cold War in the 60s in a flashy and exciting way that the village of Gloria do Ribatejo went through.
When we take a historical theme we have to make it interesting for the viewer and not turn the film into a history lesson that no one wants to see or hear.
The cast tries their best, but many of them have little talent and their resume is based on the soap opera record.
So much wasted potential on a weak project with few expectations for the future.
Wicked in Concert (2021)
I miss Idina and Kristin on stage
Listening Idina and Kristin introucing this incredible voices was so so so good. Such an incredible thing to do from PBS. Rita Moreno was such a wonderfull surprise too.
Cher and the Loneliest Elephant (2021)
Earth Day with Kaavan
For those who know me, you know that I am a big fan of documentaries, from "March of the Penguins" to "The Cove".
And when I heard that they were making a documentary about Kaavan's rescue, I was very excited.
And the result did not disappoint. What Cher did as a humanitarian was to praise the skies. Removing that elephant with so much trauma to put it in a place where he can find peace and company, is just thrilling.
