La última noche en Tremor

Oriol, escucha "el instinto" y vuelve a las películas.

Por mgarsos

Una adaptación no muy acertada, con un tempo de inicio demasiado lento y un metraje demasiado extenso. Con una historia evidente y caótica, narrada sin excesiva coherencia junto a un guión simplón, que se pierde en palabras grandilocuentes y pedantería esotérico - filosófica son algunos de los lastres que nos hacen pesado el visionado de esta serie.

Javier Rey destaca sobre el resto del reparto, aún así, cuando su personaje se muestra más inestable, se vuelve poco creíble. Polvorosa y Castro se muestran correctas y convincentes. Mientras Guillermo Toledo no para de meter aire al texto cuál dudoso actor de doblaje. Cabe mención especial para Nora Navas.

Visualmente es genérica, está pensada para adaptarse al mercado internacional de plataformas sin mayor pretensión. Pese a ello tanto su fotografía como su montaje y colorización son cinematográficos y agradables, pero existen muchos productos similares con mejor resultado visual.

En cuanto a la música, aunque en este caso, debería actuar como actor principal, no consigue llegar a ser ese pilar fundamental e ir de la mano con las escenas. El único tema reseñable es 'Las Piezas', al final del último capítulo.

Concluyendo, La última noche en Tremor, es un thriller de suspense con el sello característico de Paulo, pero que se extiende demasiado en un galimatías insustancial y previsible. Pudo ser una gran película pero prefirió ser ocho capítulos mediocres.

It’s been a rollercoaster 10 years since James Rodríguez wowed the world

It's been 10 years since James Rodríguez scored *that* goal. Yes, that one. You remember it well, surely.

The setting: Brazil's historic Maracanã stadium. In the 28th minute of their Round of 16 contest against Uruguay, Colombia's Abel Aguilar lobbed a header to James, who played it off his chest and volley-kicked it into the top of his opponents' net, near the corner, well beyond a diving Fernando Muslera. In a post-match summary of the goal, the poetic British commentator Peter Drury declared, "First touch, sumptuous. Second touch, magical. That's not a left foot. That is a wand." Uruguayan defender José María Giménez could do nothing more than stand with his hands on his hips, staring at the net in disbelief.

"My word, this boy's a star!" Drury proclaimed in the moment. James did not disappoint. He added another goal that game, taking his tally to five in the tournament after just four games. He'd add another in a quarterfinal loss to Brazil. Though Colombia would bow out at that point, James would go on to win the Golden Boot as the tournament's top scorer and, later, the Puskas Award for the year's most beautiful goal.

But it hasn't been a bed of roses for James in the ten years since Rio. Today, on his 33rd birthday, we take a look at the rise, fall, and revival of the Colombian midfielder.

The rising star

James had been building a strong career for himself in advance of the 2014 World Cup with productive seasons at Porto (32 goals in 107 appearances; 6 trophies) followed by a high-profile move to Monaco — a 5-year contract with a €45 million transfer fee. But in a post-World Cup interview, James said the magic words: that it would be his "life's dream" to play for Real Madrid. Ten days later, and with 4 years still left on his contract, James had signed with Carlo Ancelotti's band of superstars, a roster that included the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Toni Kroos, Kareem Benzema, and Sergio Ramos to name just a few. (Casillas, Pepe, Bale, Marcelo, Navas to name just a few more.)

Things started well at Madrid. Even amidst a team rich in talent, and despite being out for two months with injury, James contributed 17 goals in his first season. But later injuries and diminishing returns in successive seasons meant that James could no longer keep a regular place on the squad. New Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane also didn't seem to favor James' playing style, leading the Colombian to request a loan to Bayern Munich, where we would be reunited with Ancelotti.

Internationally, James was still making waves. At 25, he was named Colombia team captain for the 2016 Copa América, leading them to third place, losing only to eventual winners, Chile.

Fading away

Injuries plagued James for quite some time, keeping him from action for both club and country. After such a dazzling display in 2014, James sat on the bench at the 2018 World Cup and watched as his team went out to England in penalties in the Round of 16.

Despite scoring some key goals to help Bayern Munich win two league titles and a Pokal, James had netted only 15 goals in his 67 appearances with the club, and the owners opted not to pick up the option to purchase him. With no home in Munich or Madrid, he moved to Merseyside for a short stint with Everton (again, reuniting him with Ancelotti).

But failing to impress in England, and with no other clubs willing to take him on, James found himself playing for Qatar's Al Rayyan and didn't contribute much to their mediocre season. The Qatari team let him go just one game into his second season. He moved to Greece where he again lasted only one season after poor results with Olympiacos.

And James wouldn't get to return to Qatar for the 2022 World Cup as Colombia failed to qualify, finishing three points behind Ecuador for the last guaranteed spot. How did the World Cup star fade so fast for James?

Fast forward to summer 2023: James once again finds himself in South America. He now plays for São Paolo in Brazil, 13 years after he had left Argentina's Banfield, where he began built the reputation that catapulted him to European football. A name that had once dominated discussions among pundits — that had been proclaimed as "the next great thing" — had now faded into near oblivion. People weren't talking about James Rodríguez anymore.

Renaissance

After their failure to qualify for the 2022 World Cup, James expressed uncertainty as to whether he would ever again play for his country. That may have lit a fire under the team and perhaps even under him. Something started to happen...

Colombia started to pile up the wins, or at least had avoided losing. They had racked up victories against Mexico, Germany, and Brazil, among other countries. And before you knew it, they entered Copa América 2024 on a 23-game unbeaten run.

Enter James.

The attacking midfield has been a stalwart for Colombia all tournament and has been one of the keys to their success. In Colombia's five games so far, he has netted one goal and contributed six assists, surpassing Messi's tournament assist record. He's been man of the match for four of Colombia's five games of the tournament so far.

And when Colombia face off against Messi's Argentina in Sunday's final, James will need to play a pivotal role. Will his remarkable revival culminate in extending Colombia's historic unbeaten run and winning their first Copa América since 2001?

In addition to reinvigorating this Colombia team and resurrecting his career, James may also be accomplishing something even more outlandish — he may have some neutrals paying closer attention to him and Colombia than to Messi and Argentina. Colombia has arguably been the Copa's best team. Argentina has yet to come up against substantial competition and have had two victories over Canada.

Meanwhile, Colombia have had already had to battle both Brazil and Uruguay, defeating the latter while down a player for an entire half. The talented superstars of La Albiceleste, the world's #1 ranked team for the last 18 months now, can always dazzle and can outplay any team on their best day. But we've yet to see their best at this tournament, and it's feasible Colombia's passionate, fiery play could be a game-changer.

The bookies may have already made their prediction, but Sunday's eventual outcome is anything but clear. What is clear is that James Rodríguez will have a key role to play in whatever the result.

He's hoping it's a role for the better.

Santillana del Mar, Spain (No. 9)

The palace of Velarde, also called the palace de las arenas, is a building located in the Plaza de las Arenas in Santillana del Mar (Cantabria, Spain). It was completed in the mid-sixteenth century for Alonso de Velarde.

Its architecture is from the first Renaissance. It has rhythmic windows and a pinnacle crowning. The main room is lined with a plinth decorated with Plateresque motifs.

It was built in the sixteenth century by Alonso Velarde, scion of a powerful local lineage. He was the younger brother of Rodrigo Fernández Velarde, who built the house of the Canton in the same town, and son of another Rodrigo or Ruy Fernández Velarde and María Fernández de Villa, patrons of the chapel of San Juan de la Colegiata, which they testified in 1528. The palace succeeded each other in the lineage of Velarde and remained in his descendants until the early twentieth century. The last hereditary owner was María García de la Llata, that in 1915 he sold it to the writer Ricardo León. Then it was bought by Fernando de la Cerda, Duke of Parcent, who undertook a vast rehabilitation. The duke died childless and inherited the palace his widow, Trinidad von Scholtz Hermensdorff, a noted patron and art collector. The Duchess left as heir her daughter from a previous marriage: Piedad de Yturbe, Marchioness of Belvís de las Navas, and from this there was the palace her son Prince Alfonso de Hohenlohe, who died in 2003. In 2008 it was put up for sale by the famous Yale University doctor, Francisco Guerra.

O desatino da rapaziada – Humberto Werneck

Uma bela pesquisa sobre os escritores mineiros e suas carreiras literárias e jornalísticas, sobre os jornais e revistas literárias de Minas no período de Carlos Drummond de Andrade, Fernando Sabino Otto Lara Resende, Paulo Mendes Campos, Fernando Gabeira e outros mineiros ou idos a Minas. Conta “causos” ótimos!

“Paulo Mendes de Campos, por sua vez, conta numa crônica a história de um cultor das formas clássicas que, uma noite, no Trianon, tendo ouvido os rapazes da mesa ao lado concluírem que o maior poeta brasileiro era Carlos Drummond de Andrade, acercou-se deles e pediu para participar da conversa. Incorporado à roda, tirou do bolso um revólver e encerrou a discussão com uma chave de outro – ou chumbo – ‘Meus caros jovens, os senhores dispõem do prazo improrrogável de dez minutos para mudarem de opinião. O maior poeta do Brasil é Alphonsus de Guimaraens’. Os rapazes, registrou o cronista, acharam mais prudente virar imediatamente a casaca literária.”

“Há quem diga, aliás, que Minas se vê melhor à distância – como a viu Pedro Nava em suas portentosas memórias, escritas num velho apartamento da Rua da Glória, no Rio...

Alguns, pouco numerosos, não partiram, por falta de apetência ou condições, e quase todos eles desmentiram a observação bem humorada de Jacques do Prado Brandão, anotada por Francisco Iglesias: ‘Mineiro que fica em Minas é porque tem algum defeito de fabricação. Não é exportável.’...”

Hi! I'm from Seville, and I usually go to the fair in April, a very popular festival here. I just discovered your blog and wanted to tell you that last year, I saw Fernando with Sergio in his private "caseta" at the fair. There were also a couple of Sevilla players, such as Navas and Isco. It seems they continue to maintain contact.

I already knew, but thanks for sharing! :)
