Alec Baldwin: “In the USA do not have the mood to appreciate the … – ABC.es

Alec Baldwin, an undisputed star of the cinema and American television, did not miss the presentation of “Torrente 5: Operation Eurovegas”, in which he said that his countrymen “have enough sense of humor to appreciate the irony” of such a film, starring and that led him to work for the first time to Spain. « Americans have no sense of humor splendid Spanish , much less to imagine a future that gives a picture of them other than they have: they are the best, the number one ‘ the actor said in an interview with EFE.

“If we talk about an alleged future in USA” quipped, “all speak Chinese, and Chinese banks would, and have Chinese names. No, definitely not you laugh at themselves, “he added. The actor is in Madrid promoting the fifth installment of the saga ‘Torrente’ with the rest of the cast and, like them, changed clothes to get to Casino Gran Madrid, where the interviews took place, and has placed a black shirt with the title of the printed film in big white letters .

Alto, burly, with vivísimos blue eyes and sly look, the New Yorker has preferred to speak in English because in the film explained in Spanish, but learned phonetically. “It’s rare to make a film in a language you do not know,” he acknowledged, but he is not the Castilian totally unknown, as is his wife and feels Mallorca Spain as a second home. In fact, Baldwin says is considering having Madrid as a hub and work in Europe .

He laughs when he explains that a Spanish friend, filmmaker, told him who he was Torrente. “The most disgusting me put it more fancied doing” said the winner of three Golden Globes for her role in the television series “Rockefeler Plaza”. For New York, the big players have moved to television for an obvious question: “Before 40 years ago, the industry used to do 80 percent of adult films explains the percentage separating the hands and 20 for Children. Now it’s the reverse, 20 drama for adults and 80 for Spider-Man. “

” The place to find the drama and topics of interest to adults now are shows like ‘Mad Men’, ‘ Breaking Bad, “” Boardwalk Empire “… Many people who worked in movies is on TV, serious actors, first. This is like going to a nice restaurant and be able to eat just chips . ” Baldwin also said he considers Santiago Segura a man of talent, who is also “very fun and very fast reflexes, and all with very good pace.” The best films, says, are the work of a single person who wrote and directed, and sometimes also acts, “such as Woody Allen, Warren Beatty, Roman Polanski, Francis Ford Coppola … and comedians like Ben Stiller and Sacha Baron Cohen. ” “Santiago can do all this, ‘he added.

Ken Follett concludes its owners ‘Novecento’ – Online

For speaking the term novecento as he is alien; so, plus it was already taken, Ken Follett came not as a global title of his trilogy on the twentieth century that just ended with ‘The threshold of eternity’ (Plaza & amp; Janes). This last volume begins with the erection of Berlin Wall and concludes with its collapse. In between, the struggle for civil rights for blacks in the United States, the missile crisis, repression in Eastern Europe, the war in Vietnam … A cool thoroughly documented in whose creation – divination is weighed much more perspiration (methodical and constant work) than inspiration.

Nearly three thousand pages in seven years. Not bad as speed dialing. Not much pull in the bin, that must-have item for every writer worth his salt. . “No, but I checked and I correct much every morning I start reading what was written the day before and always make many changes ,” says Follett

The documentation has gone from visiting. a museum in Atlanta where photographs explaining the techniques of nonviolent struggle is (well, peaceful meanwhile, racist whites were anything but peaceful) of blacks claiming their civil rights to interview the real model of a female character to which, in the novel, impregnates himself President Kennedy. “I admire Kennedy, the president and his brother Bob, how they evolved and became interested in the issue of civil rights, which was not among their concerns at first. And admire how John challenged the Pentagon resisting pressure to send ground troops to Vietnam. Another thing is your sex life. I know that I describe as a sexual predator and in that sense, it’s hard to admire him. “

But, with all the bad sexual mores of President Kennedy, in addition to those resulting from anticommunism led them to practice and questionably legal wiretap terrorism Cuba directly, the worse off out across the land hemisphere. The situation in East Germany would make Kafka, had lived there and as the classical expression, have been a realist. One thing this purpose, provided by Follett: “ In the GDR was a police secret for every sixty inhabitants , in Nazi Germany was one for two thousand”

As for the Soviet Union, “its economic base was worse and more inefficient than their elders have told conservative critics. Sooner or later would have collapsed for one reason or another.” Another difference between the two great powers is expressing this joke Gore Vidal , which, given the theme of the novel, comes up in conversation with Follett: “Nothing is certain in the murder Kennedy, except one thing, if instead of having been he would have been killed Khrushchev Onassis would not have married his widow “

Lassalle promises more money, but settles the Patronage Act – The Digital Voice (Cádiz)

No enact this legislature expected Patronage Act. At least under that name. He acknowledged yesterday the Secretary of State for Culture, Jose Maria Lassalle, to confirm that the stellar management law is subsumed in the tax reform of the Ministry of Finance who commands Cristobal Montoro, in parliamentary procedure and perhaps enter into force in 2015. If that was the sand, the lime is on the increase under Culture in the State Budget that “fortunately is given for the first time in recent years,” and in the emergence of ‘crowdfunding’.

No Lassalle said the amount of the increase and anticipated today unveiled Montoro introducing in Congress a bill of public budgets for 2015, however, he noted how “for first democratized patronage in our country through the introduction of crowdfunding, with which the city may deduct 75% of the first 150 euros to devote to culture. ” “You will not have to be rich to be patrons: if that’s not a law of patronage that down and see God,” he said.

Lasalle eluded with repetition clearly specified that there would Patronage Act to name, and that the benefits of the decay law are measures of finance and justice in this area. “If we go into battle nominalisms, we can do,” he said to stop recognizing that “tax reform is the Law of Patronage.” “The sponsorship entails support tax incentives, deductions on income tax and corporation tax and that is a Law of Patronage,” Lassalle said after inaugurating the Meeting of Ibero Publishers in Madrid.

“In Spain there is a Patronage Act in force since the 90s and is now being amended. The Patronage Act are basically tax incentives and if the patron will not offer these incentives is called anything other than altruism or philanthropy occurs, “he said. “There’s a modification that makes the Ministry of Justice, which is facilitating the creation of foundations,” he added.

Lasalle advertises more Quotes for Culture and confirms that no … – The Reason

The Secretary of State for Culture, José María Lasalle, announced that “fortunately for the first time” will be an increase in the departure of Culture allocated by the State Budget (PGE) while patronage has confirmed that no will have its own law.

In this regard, he explained that the Law of Patronage finally divided between tax reform and regulation of foundations that prepares the Justice Department.

Asked about the future of this law and if will own name and surname, Lasalle has said that there will be sponsorship through tax incentives. “If we go into battle nominalisms, we can do it,” he noted.

In this regard, he clarified that the law is “basically” the presence of tax incentives. “If there are no incentives involving deductions on income tax or corporation would philanthropy or altruism, but not patronage,” he noted.

So, has indicated that will subsumed in the tax reform, because it involves touching taxes and is responsible to the Ministry of Finance. He also added that will be processed by the Ministry of Justice facilitating the creation of foundations, which will be a “package mainstreaming legislation patronage.”

“For the first time the patronage count in . Spain with the introduction of micromemecenazgo No need to be rich to be patrons: if that’s not a law of patronage, come down and see God “, underlined

.

Lasalle insists there is no law sponsorship – Cadena Ser

The patronage is already included in the latest tax change of Montoro despite a campaign promise to draft a specific law. Culture ensures that their budgets will increase next year for the first time since the outbreak of the crisis year.

The Patronage promised law will not be such, because the tax incentives that the rule was to include longer walk are the new tax measures included in the latest reform proposed by the government.

That’s the argument put forward by the Secretary of State for Culture, José María Lasalle who speaks of the mainstreaming of the measures proposed by the department will join “a change which falls under the Ministry of Justice, which is facilitating the creation of Foundations”.

During the Meeting of Ibero Editors held in the Reader’s House in Madrid the policy has also made clear its position on copyright law that currently being discussed in the Senate with it, it will end the arbitrary fixing of tariffs; and will provide legal certainty in the fight against piracy and transparency.

Lasalle not takes cognizance of the petition of collecting societies which brings together producers, publishers, artists for the Deputy Prime Minister involved in the negotiation of the law before they consider an inflexible position of the Ministry of Culture. And states that “we have incorporated all the demands and claims raised by the industry and raised the coalition of creators. With some nuances, demands in substance are contained in the current text.”

There seems the idea that this “sector” which has called for Tuesday a rally outside the Secretariat of State, in an action which he considers “the burial of the culture.”

The groundbreaking film definitely has seduced the jury Vermouth, seeking more originality, but brushed it excessive or alarmist, versus more integrated proposals and was unanimously stirred up more viewers and the press in this 62 edition San Sebastian Festival, which ended with a shower of stars personified by Benicio Del Toro, Josh Hutcherson, Charlotte and Orlando Bloom Gaingsbourg, although the latter very fleeting and wasted.

As for the awards sections parallel, in the section on Latin American film festivals from other Horizontes Latinos won the Mexican “Güeros” Alonso Ruizpalacios released last February at the Berlinale, which took 35,000 euros (45,300 dollars), which also won the Youth award.

It seems that this pair of directors know that they no longer enjoy the Mass extraordinary success which had the previous film, but now they are happy and relaxed to have been able to bring to light an issue that they wished, but always inserting a comedic desdramatizadora a topic and sometimes tragic and delicate.

The magical, murky and compelling film Vermouth – Online

It is just that the year in which the film presents Spanish in San Sebastian (his festival right) two of the best and most provocative films that have been seen in time, Shell is for one of them. Not so much provincialism (also) as a simple and obvious recognition. And merit is even greater because rarely the level of competition section was so high, so refined, so inviting.

Carlos Vermouth , also pointed to Shell Silver for Best Director, as well as confirming a filmmaker whose limit at every step, seems more difficult to predict. With ‘Magical girl’, was formerly director illustrator in this paper is confirmed as a refined maze creator of atmospheres (all perfectly murky). It says to create a story has to draw it before: “If I can sum up the film in a simple drawing is that no movie.” Add that understands film as a way of manipulating the viewer. And, more relaxed, it casts recognize who does not understand that what makes it “supernecesario”: “I do not want to waste money to anyone”

The whole story of the film has won. Golden Shell running in the back of the screen . It is the viewer who is invited to build the fractured tale of a wounded woman. The captivating register that looks Bárbara Lennie, José and Luis Bermejo Sacritán as fronts in which, from the shadow of a doubt the threat is projected move. The accuracy of a relentless and always aware of the gaps, the excitement, the cold direction, is responsible for everything else.

The result is a ribbon at the boundary between truth and Fear . Undoubtedly, the principle of a director who in just two films (this and ‘Diamond Flash’) has already built a world.

And so, suddenly, a film director and minimum modal sneaks into the top list of winners of the 62nd edition of the Festival of San Sebastián. Neither the purified inner reflection of ‘The minimum island’ by Alberto Rodriguez or the precise virtuosity and beautiful film Mia Hansen-Love and ‘Eden’ or dirty gesture Argentina ‘Outdoors’ Anahi Berneri , and the ease to mix melodrama genre films with Christian Petzold in ‘Phoenix’ , no, no of them, the winner was the one who was. Without a doubt. All favorite competing in the same arc probabilities. And directly responsible for this achievement is a director, José Luis Rebordinos , which in less than four years has turned completely to the appointment of cinema more important in Spain.

Beside, the Special Jury Award was the last to arrive for the competition. Vie sauvage (Wild Life), Cédric Kahn , is a film based on a true story; one of the events, shall we say, most important media in the recent France. A father kidnapped his own children and lived with them for six years so uncomfortable foreign affairs as civilization

The film, like the story itself, is kept in suspense between fiction and documentary.; between the wild and the scheduled; between calm and rage. The adventure of the three outlaws (for that is) in a world (ours) in which there is no room for anything other than what it should be thus becomes a kind of western melodrama in which no no other reason than the border itself, either. And in the background, irresolubre conflict between a father and a mother who claimed her own, flesh of his flesh. Directed with ease, precision and long outburst, the film is also a sensitive portrait of the time; of passing time.

The rest of the honors list was complying with the protocol. Unfair perhaps in a year like this. For ‘The minimum island’, the other Spanish, awards were Best Actor (Javier Gutiérrez) and Best Cinematography (Alex Alcantara). said this last thing that counts in the film is the atmosphere. And hit. Because tape Alberto Rodríguez more than just look, you breathe, you sweat even. Beside her, Danish actress Paprika Steen was identified as actress editing ending (poor Nina Hoss) and no one dared to take the chair to the script of Dennis Lehane for delivery.

And so it, Magical girl, a film that actually is more. From the outside, it might even be a way forward. From inside the sweltering year invitation to the movies. In his hands, the reality is simply a disease.
