Il cinema di Fernando Leoacute;n de Aranoa egrave; un cinema che parla dellrsquo;oggi: lo affronta; lo analizza; con strumenti intelligenti; sottili; raffinati. Parla di giornate lunghe e monotone; di momenti da assaporare e da trattenere; anche se comuni e ripetitivi; di persone come ce ne sono tante; ognuna a suo modo speciale e indimenticabile. Un cinema che sembra fare ordine; rimettere ogni cosa nella giusta posizione; in una scala di valori spesso invertita. Un cinema profondamente onesto; e vivo.Sommario: Intro di Chiara BoffelliContro lrsquo;ipermetropia di Fernando Leoacute;n de AranoaUn cinema del disagio sociale di Nicola RosselloLrsquo;impegno di un regista terreno di Javier Angulo BarturenQuando lo sfruttamento egrave; fuori dalla storia di Pietro BianchiNaufraghi dei propri sogni di Davide MazzoccoIl cinema della vita di Luis AlegreIntervista a Fernando Leoacute;n de Aranoa a cura di Chiara BoffelliI film

Gem of a BookBy Leah LambertAdventures of an American Composer by Michael Colgrass is a gem of a book. sparkling with wit and glowing with genuine warmth. Colgrass shares many of his lifes experiences; drawing readers inside the worlds of jazz and classical music; as he describes the transitions he made in his career from percussionist to composer. His "adventures" are short pieces; none more than just a few pages in length. Although each anecdote is brief; Colgrass manages to be candid about his collaborations and chance meetings with many of the legendary figures in the world of music and theater. He stresses how important it is for artists who have already achieved success to nurture new talent.Throughout the book; Colgrass is honest about his own feelings; sometimes expressing regret about how he handled specific situations or interacted with some individuals. Although most of the book is written in a matter-of-fact style; some of his anecdotes demonstrate sensitivity and joy; especially when he describes his relationships with his family. Through this inside look at his own life and the music world he inhabits; Colgrass has succeeded in painting a picture of a truly creative person. He demonstrates how talent; determination and confidence helped him to follow his inner calling. His joy in his work and his ability to overcome obstacles shine through every page.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
