The millionaire stavince, meritatamente
Come avevo annunciato agli amici che mi chiedevano informazioni a riguardo, The Millionaire ha vinto una caterva di Oscar ieri notte, meritatamente, è quasi ovvio dirlo. Con film così vicino alla perfezione e alla poesia è anche facile fare previsioni. Lo dissi dopo averlo visto e lo ripeto: un capolavoro.
Finalmente dal giudizio per la premiazione degli Oscar sta iniziando a levarsi pian piano quel vecchiume e quella boriosa classificazione basata sulla commercialità di una pellicola. Ovviamente è presto per raggiungere i livelli di Venezia e Cannes, ma è sempre qualcosa.

Crash! Boom! Bang! (Roxette)
My Papa told me to stay out of trouble,
"When you've found your man, make sure he's for real!".
I've learned that nothing really lasts forever.
I sleep with the scars I wear that won't heal, they won't heal.
Cos every time I seem to fall in love,
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall,
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the call, that's the game
and the pain stays the same.
I'm walking down this empty road to nowhere,
I pass by the houses and blocks I once knew.
My Mama told me not to mess with sorrow,
but I always did, and Lord, I still do.
I'm still breaking the rules.
I kick it up. I kick it down.
Cos every time I seem to fall in love,
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the heart but then I hit the wall,
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's my real middle-name,
it has always been the same.
That's the call, that's the game
and the pain stays the same.
I still feel the heat -
Slowly fallin' from the sky -
And the taste of the kissing,
shattered by rain -
Comin' tumblin' from behind -
And the wild holy war.
I kick it up. I kick it down
And every time I seem to fall in love,
Crash! Boom! Bang!
I find the roses dying on the floor,
Crash! Boom! Bang!
That's the tall, that's the game
and the pain stays the same.
That's my real middle-name,
it has always been the same.
Oh Yea Oh Yea Oh Yea ah-hah,
been the same, been the same.
It has always been the same.
It has always been the same.

Teacher (Jethro Tull)
Well the dawn was coming,
heard him ringing on my bell.
He said, ``My name's the teacher,
that is what I call myself.
And I have a lesson
that I must impart to you.
It's an old expression
but I must insist it's true.
Jump up, look around,
find yourself some fun,
no sense in sitting there hating everyone.
No man's an island and his castle isn't home,
the nest is for nothing when the bird has flown.''
So I took a journey,
threw my world into the sea.
With me went the teacher
who found fun instead of me.
Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand, lying there in bed.
I try to socialize but I can't seem to find
what I was looking for, got something on my mind.
Then the teacher told me
it had been a lot of fun.
Thanked me for his ticket
and all that I had done.
Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand, lying there in bed.
I try to socialize but I can't seem to find
what I was looking for, got something on my mind.
