Masoch 1980 (movie)

here it is. It was on youtube for a few years, but I think it has been taken down this year. I had downloaded it because I am insane so I am now re-uploading it on vimeo at this link https://vimeo.com/1012742172?share=copy

Unfortunately, there are no subtitles :(

I might be able to translate a good amount of it but I don't know how to make subtitles.

It's a pretty bad movie in my opinion. It follows Rümelin's autobiography very loosely and the actors are... not great. Costumes are shit, haircuts are debatable. And yeah, that's kind of it. I do not understand how this got to the Festival di Venezia I think it's a bit ehhh you know what I mean. I don't like it. I really don't. It's a good movie to watch while stoned out of your mind cause the actors have a very strange line delivery.

Here is also the soundtrack. Yes, I have this downloaded too. :)

Also, I literally just found out that the actress playing Aurora, Francesca De Sapio, was in the Padrino II.

Anyway, Sacher-Masoch fandom, watch party when???

On another note, if you want another Sacher-Masoch related media coming from Italy look no further than Crepax's Venus in Furs. This one is actually very nice, and you can also find it in English. Unfortunately, I can't find it any more online T_T. I had a link to it but now it's dead. If I can find a physical copy I'll scan it and upload it somewhere 'cause it really is a shame :(. Here are some of the pictures I can find online to give you an idea. It's very nice and it's a very short read.

And also the Intervista Impossibile by Oreste del Buono is fantastic. https://www.raiplaysound.it/audio/2020/09/Le-interviste-impossibili--Oreste-Del-Buono-incontra-Leopold-Von-Sacher-Masoch-f7dd930b-3d68-47cd-95ad-9c73bec45638.html

“Every day, a first-time visitor to Venice will enquire about the most direct route to his or her hotel. ‘The shortest or the most beautiful?’ I once overheard the concierge at the Hotel Des Bains respond. The tourist who chose the most beautiful route is still wandering the streets. This is a unique photobook in which to wander and lose oneself.” Serge Simonart

Venice is already the subject of thousands of unremarkable travel guides and photo books. Only an original and tactile collector’s item can lay claim to a worthy place in today’s Google age.

This evocative book is brimming with a wealth of Venetian memorabilia: nineteenth-century photographs, engravings, hand-coloured magic lantern slides, antique postcards, old luggage labels and keys for long-lost luxury hotels, eighteenth-century gold ducats, antiquarian erotica, masks, invitations to Carnival balls, and the list goes on. Neither a travel guide nor a summary of unmissable sights, Venezia takes readers on an atmospheric pilgrimage along mythical peaks. Resembling a rare volume from 1895, this gilt-edged book captures all the mystery, glamour and faded elegance of the most miraculous city in the world.

With inspiring texts by Serge Simonart and illustrated with dozens of authentic photographs and documents.

Clare BPR Gen 3 Sims (pt. 1)

Don’t ask why so many Italian names. It was 2020 and I was upset my Italian vacation was cancelled...among other things 😂

Notes:

Siena, Venezia and Romeo are triplets!

Venezia is a werewolf and was my heir for gen 3

Tarquin is their younger sibling, he’s trans and uses he/him pronouns

Firenze was Venezia’s wife, she’s also trans and uses she/her pronouns, oh and she’s Hestia’s daughter!

TOU: Don’t change their genetics. Feel free to give them a makeover - new hair, new clothes, makeup etc. Don’t claim as your own, don’t reupload or use as a base for your own sims. And please, @ me when you post them, I’d love to see what they’re up to!    

CC: These are old sims so I’m not gonna go back and link all their cc because I just don’t remember where I got it, just replace it with whatever. Skin is most likely (x), (x) or (x).

Finalmente la resa dei conti è arrivata. Poi toccherà all'Unità ed al Fatto Quotidiano.

Patrizia Cesaretti: Se fossero giornalisti invece che lecchini, camperebbero meglio.

Maria Stella Maltoni: Questo perché i pescivendoli non hanno più comprato Repubblica per incartare il pesce.

CAOS A LA REPUBBLICA: "LA NAVE AFFONDA I CONTI VANNO MALE. QUAL' È LA LINEA EDITORIALE’’.

Libero 05/01/24

Non c’è pace a Repubblica. Dopo il durissimo comunicato di metà dicembre coi 5 giorni di sciopero paventati, il 2024 si apre con una mail esplosiva del Comitato di redazione (Cdr) a tutti i giornalisti della testata.

La sintesi è che la direzione e la proprietà si sono allontanate dall’identità del giornale.

Nel 2020 gli Elkann, proprietari di Repubblica, hanno venduto il Tirreno, la Gazzetta di Modena, la Gazzetta di Reggio e La Nuova Ferrara.

Nel 2021 si sono liberati di MicroMega.

Nel 2022 la vendita dell’Espresso.

Poi, nel 2023, la cessione di 6 testate del Nord-Est (Corriere delle Alpi, Il Piccolo, Messaggero Veneto, La Nuova Venezia, Il Mattino di Padova e La Tribuna di Treviso).

Pochi giorni prima di quel comunicato, il fondatore, De Benedetti, aveva a sua volta picchiato duro contro gli Elkann, accusandoli di aver distrutto il quotidiano.

IL CDR: «L’ANNO CHE SI CHIUDE È STATO SOFFERTO E DIFFICILE, ASSAI DELUDENTE PER TUTTI NOI.

IL NOSTRO GIORNALE CONTINUA A PERDERE COPIE,

ABBONAMENTI E NON RIESCE A TROVARE UNA STRADA NEL DIGITALE. E QUESTO, A NOSTRO AVVISO

PER LA MANCANZA DI UNA CHIARA STRATEGIA DI INVESTIMENTI, MARKETIG, OBIETTIVI, COLLOCAZIONE NEL PANORAMA EDITORIALE.

NONOSTANTE GLI SFORZI TITANICI DI TUTTI NOI.

La difesa dell’identità di Repubblica (ciò che sembra importare solo a noi giornalisti che amiamo questo quotidiano e il lavoro che facciamo)

ci ha impegnato in un anno che ha segnato la per noi traumatica disgregazione di quello che era il più importante gruppo editoriale del nostro Paese,

smembrato e dismesso da un editore il cui progetto resta per noi incomprensibile, oltre che frutto di preoccupazione».

La redazione, si legge sempre nel comunicato, attende dal direttore Maurizio Molinari il nuovo piano editoriale:

«Come sappiamo nel futuro prossimo ci sono ancora tagli, riduzione del perimetro giornalistico, mortificazione di competenze e professionalità (...)

il 2024 si preannuncia un anno di dura battaglia a difesa del nostro posto di lavoro, del nostro nome (...) dovremo affrontarlo insieme.

perché da questa caduta rovinosa non si salva nessuno.

Vedere Repubblica che viene abbandonata come una nave che affonda è motivo di particolare amarezza».

Introducing Blue Blood Killer, a project that I will do in class and a future series that I will do.

SPOILERS:

Blue Blood Killer takes place in Europe, where a secret organization is sworn to protect those with superpowers from getting killed by an alien race known as the Caeruleans. The main characters are all humans except for the one that is a Caerulean who despises his species' ethics and views towards the homo sapiens. This story carries action-packed fantasy and a comedic tone. It also explores how both sides in a war may have grey moral compasses—similar to Animorphs, Deadpool, B the Beginning, and other modern X-men comic titles. 

2008: The story starts in Porta Venezia, Milan, where Airi Rossi, a spunky young girl, meets a shy, young alien boy– later known as Aoki Lombardi– after meeting each other in a forest where a spaceship crash landed. Airi and Aoki would become the best of friends as time passed. They grow in mutual understanding, with Airi understanding Aoki's powers and Aoki understanding human culture. Aoki was the only alien until the war began. His parents sent him away to avoid his capture by the Grand High Arclight and the Caerulean guards.

Nine years later

2017: A giant blue goop from the sky splashed all across the regions of Planet Earth, including European regions. The goop demolished buildings and statues and even caused earthquakes, tsunamis, and other natural disasters. The ones that survived have been contaminated with the blue goop from the sky, and the ones that didn't have succumbed to the disasters. Survivors have built makeshift hospitals and refugee camps–-Including one in the Milan Cathedral— in order to tend to each other. With their newfound powers, some people have attempted to rebuild establishments, monuments, and homes. Some have even attempted to replant new crops and jumpstart electricity for refrigeration, guidance, and communications.

6 Year War

2018:  Things have died down, at least for the moment. But right when Airi and Aoki were settling into their new home, a group of Caeruleans and Caerulean-Human mutations known as Azurites ambushed their home and began attacking them. Right when the Caeruleans were about to inject a concoction that would diminish her powers, Airi manifested the power of luck onto the plasma-like lycanthrope Aoki, causing him to obliterate the Caerulean soldiers and Azurites with a giant blast. Recognizing they were targets, the two raced out of their home and tried to find a place where they could not be found. As they began searching for a place, a teleportation disk stepped into view and warped them into a high-tech facility. This secret hideout was located underneath the grassy side of Parco Sempione. Another location was in Milan. 

This is where the two meet the stoic, no-nonsense Office CEO turned commander Edgar Watson and tech specialist Thea Cirillo. Their new goal is to save hundreds if not thousands, of lives from the Caerulean who try to terrorize and wipe out their superpowers. From there on out, they formed an organization known as the Lapis Reale. 

Aoki meets three more Caeruleans during the 6-year war. In 2020, he met an ill-tempered and antisocial Cerulean named Telice Cortecepts, who lives in the Vertical Forests of Milan. In 2021, he met Nizami Konojami, a crafty and eccentric Caeruelean who wields the power of the weather and is known for pranking Aoki. And in the middle of the summer, he meets Ciel Shimumu, a psychic Cerulean Aoki was supposed to marry by order of the High Arclight. 

2023: Years after saving countless lives, including ones who would become members of Lapis Reale, their new objective is to get rid of the person who started this war: an immortal Caerulean and leader of Caerule, known as the Grand High Arclight. The Grand High Arclight decides that since their soldiers couldn't muster any strength to wipe out the human race, they would have to take action. Grand High Arclight resorted to kidnapping all of the human race and eating it, regaining more power and immortality so that they could recreate their race. 

Not wanting to die, Airi, the rest of the Lapis Reale force, and the reformed Cerulean soldiers team up to find ways to prevent them and the innocents from becoming digested. While doing so, Airi and Aoki have also spared the injured soldiers after fighting them to see if they're willing to switch allegiances. If possible, the two also help the aliens, who are non-soldiers around town, and give them food and shelter.

They began crawling out of the Grand High Arclight's digestive acid and trying to find their brain(their weak spot). This attempt was arduous as Azurites were lurking within their stomach, trying to rip the bubble the Earthlings were in and then kill them. However, once they reached the brain, they finally shut it off, resulting in the Grand High Arclight's death and their ship shutting down. After getting out of the ship and realizing that the Grand High Arclight was the one that powered the ship, the Airi and the group scrambled to find the controls. Having full knowledge of the Caerulean language and technology, Aoki and several of the reformed Caeruleans powered up the ship and piloted it back home. The story ends with a festival celebrating the two races' victory, defeating their immortal godlike tyrant.
