The oddest movie I’ve watched

This was a hard one to choose because first I don’t watch too many movies and second every time I watch a movie, I’ll know around the first 5 minutes of it if I like it or not. So I haven’t watch too many odd movies.

The movie I’ve chosen it’s called The Wall. Wikipedia defines it as a 1989 British live-action/animated psychological horror musical film, so that kinda’ says something right? Haha. It was directed by Alan Parker and the animated scenes were directed by political cartoonist Gerald Scarfe. It’s based on the 1979 Pink Floyd album of the same name so the album has a huge influence on the movie and also the screenplay was written by former Pink Floyd vocalist and bassist Roger Waters.

The film centers around a confined rocker, named Floyd "Pink" Pinkerton, who after is driven into insanity by the death of his father and many depressive moments, constructs a metaphorical and sometimes physical wall to be protected from the world and emotional situations around him, but soon backfires and demands himself free.
I had to watch this movie in school for my music class and also I had to do an essay about it so I watched the whole thing. I remember thinking while I was seeing it: This is so weird. . What this means? And things like that. It had strong images and crazy cartoons dancing around so I didn’t know what was going on. Later when I made the essay. I had to analyze the movie and that gave me a new perspective of it. This movie (and the album itself) has a very strong critical message about society, about how education it’s built and how it brainwashes the kids in order to behave a certain way. That made me understand it and put the “weird” aside to get a better look of what the movie meant.

With that being said, I can say I liked the movie and its message a lot because I found it very wise and clever so it’s basically a magnum opus to me (the album “The Wall” also is). I defiantly recommend it.

P.S: I don’t recommend it for kids. It might be a little frightening.

Thanks for reading 


That’s all . . for now :)

My Autobiography

My name is Claudia Álvarez, I was born in 1996 on Santiago, Chile so right now I'm 19 years old and counting. I have a big sister and my parents split up a couple years ago. I get to see my dad very often and I live with my sister, my mom and my cat (who I love sooooo much).

I don't remember much as a child because we used to change houses a lot so I've never been one of those persons who have lived in the same place since they can remember. But it's not so bad because I've learned to adapt myself in different situations and I have memories in different places also I know how to move in the city by my self, so it's pretty good.

I went to the same school for 14 years and I usually got good grades but I've always been a low profile person,  I don't like to call for attention and I'm most of the times quiet. That doesn't mean I'm boring though, I tent to be very open with the people I know and I have the best time in my own ways.I've always liked music and singing, and my dad used to play guitar all the time so the guitar was always around (I remember as a child not knowing how to play guitar at all but "playing it" anyways haha.) I learnt to play guitar at school and for christmas my dad and grandma had me a classic guitar and so I was able to play every day at home and eventually I got better at it. I started learning songs and singing more and now It's a hobby of mine and I enjoy doing it so much.

Another important part of my life is my cat Vito Corleone, it's a 6 months old ginger cat. Because of the places that I've lived I never got to have ANY pet, not a cat, not a dog, nothing and I love them so much so now that I finally got a pet I give him all my love.

I'm currently studying Library Science and I think it's pretty great, I've learnt stuff, met friends and done a lot of new things in my time at the university so I'm enjoying it as much as I can.I'm still figuring out who I am and learning about my self cause I think you never stop discovering things about yourself but I like what I've found so far. As long as I keep trusting in my abilities I'll be ok.


That's all... for now :)
