Fimes Assistidos 2024

Em 2024, iniciei um experimento criado de forma arbitrária: assistir a um filme por semana, alternando entre nacionais e estrangeiros (sem repetir o país). O objetivo era sair da mesmice, conhecer boas obras do Cinema nacional, assim como estilo e cultura de outros povos.

Ao todo, foram 43 títulos e acredito que o resultado foi positivo: Morning Patrol (1987) da Grécia foi uma grata surpresa, assim como o franco-canadense A Guerra do Fogo (1981). Conferi 15 títulos brasileiros cujo gênero de alguns destoa bastante do que costumo ver no Cinema Nacional, a exemplo de: Redentor (2004), A Próxima Vítima (1983), O 5º Poder (1962) e Propriedade (2022).

Reassisti alguns como o clássico da Sessão da Tarde Te Pego Lá Fora (1987) e o provocante Ele Está de Volta (2015), que apresentei a um amigo fã de De Volta Para o Futuro (1985).

Por fim, alguns documentários: o brasileiro Cabra Marcado Para Morrer (1984). Na seara do ativismo digital: O Menino da Internet - A História de Aaron Swartz (2014) e TPB AFK: The Pirate Bay - Away from Keyboard (2013). No cenário da música pesada (Grindcore): Nasum: Blasting Shit to Bits - The Final Show (2017). E, nos games: Half-Life 2: 20th Anniversary Documentary (2024).

Jesus Kid (2022)
Jesus Kid IMDb TMDB
Aly Muritiba actor: Paulo Miklos / Sergio Marone …
Western book writer, Eugenio is going through a difficult phase. He is famous for the novels starring the Jesus Kid, but his sales have been going from bad to worse for some time. The light at the end of the tunnel seems to be a film director's invitation: he wants Eugenio to write a film script. However, to write this script, Eugênio must spend three months isolated in a luxury hotel, without being able to go out or have contact with the world he knows. Based on this premise, Mutarelli builds a scathing critique of the publishing market and the film market — where he has been circulating for years. Bringing to Eugênio much of his own personality, the author shows how the commercial part of culture can be perverse to those who work in it.
