Woody Allen, the voice of the eighties | Peru Trade – Trade

The film journalists have begun to see in Woody Allen the signs of aging that recognize their grandparents. He leans his interlocutor to hear better, forget the references before throwing as quotations, and lights up again when she commemorates his art and nostalgia. Born on December 1, 1935, Allan Stewart Konigsberg has produced almost one film a year since 1969, in a movie marathon that reports on the blessings and timeless damage of being Western.

Raised in Brooklyn (New York) in the years of the Second World War, Allen believes that perhaps grew too fast. His Jewish parents did not get along and temperamental child suffered the treatment of his mother. In 2014, in his opening tour of “Magic in the light of the moon,” he said that “life is a desert full of dust, explosions, death and violence but there are magical moments: when I meet someone and I fall in love. “

The passion and irony saved Woody Allen , who was able to overturn them in the stand-up comedy and then in film. His art is full of aphorisms with analgesic effect. Celluloid proved to be a good therapy.

Welcome to the club

 The filmmaker joins the club on Tuesday octogenarians with full force in the world of the arts. In recent years, multiple studies have established that cognitive aging is virtually unpredictable variability between individuals, and beyond simplistic speculation about lifestyles. The longevity of the variety of characters Clint Eastwood (Director), Philip Roth (writer), Daniel Kahneman (psychologist, Nobel Prize in Economics) and, soon, Mario Vargas Llosa seems to prove it.

For all which includes a look back, leave hints intellectual types of mortality as they are taken seriously aging itself. Allen has not been different. “My mother realized that I was this boy cheerful to five years, when I became grumpy and cranky,” he said in a PBS documentary (2011). “I can only think that, when I knew I was going to die, I did not like the idea.” The disappointment has not dissipated, is what keeps him alive.

What holds an octogenarian

 Generational theory Strauss-Howe-groups proposed that four generations of people born in a range of 20 years form a regular historical cycle 80, whose structure is repeated again and again. While an individual can learn from their mistakes after 80 years, not many people with that experience for the start of a new cycle and many who hear. So the story begins again:
