Nicholas Galitzine

  In 2018, this blog started to post on Fridays only photos and teasers about beautiful men in a protest to the unflattering ones with women that our husbands, boyfriends, partners or friends exchange among themselves. Interested in the whole collection? Click here!

É sempre bom lembrar o intuito destas postagens de sextas-feiras, intituladas Thank God Is Friday - TGIF: nossos queridos amigos, namorados, maridos e outros que tais repassam entre si fotos, como dizer?, nada abonadoras ao sexo feminino, com as quais eles se divertem descaradamente. As imagens aqui colocadas são a vingancinha, com muita classe, que nós, garotas, nos permitimos. Divirtam-se e vejam a coleção toda clicando aqui!

We all need Backup



In the movie "About a Boy" with Nicholas Hoult and Hugh Grant: almost funny, almost sad, sometimes hopeful, other times hopeless, but truthful when saying:

All I meant was I don't think couples are the future.
You need more than that. You need backup.
The way I saw it, Will and I both had backup now.
It's like that thing he told me Jon Bon Jovi said:
"No man is an island."

Kate and Harvey

 


Everyday Kate wakes up to her job at Heathrow, to her lonely mother who suspects about the neighbours, to her fellow workers trying to match her with unwanted dates. Kate is not young anymore, but she has a good sense of humour and loves reading. She accepts to accompany Harvey on his stint in London, just for the fun of it. "Last Chance Harvey" is worth watching!

Harvey in London

 "Last Chance Harvey" brings to the silverscreen two monster actors: Dustin Hoffman and Emma Thompson. A fortuitous encounter at a bar in Heathrow airport will lead us to walk with them through a clean, clear, dry (though both caracthers use macintoshes) of rain, blue skyed London - not your everyday experience, right? The dialogs are beautifully crafted!

Kate and Harvey promised to meet at Somerset House the next day by noon. Will they really?

Last Chance Harvey/Tinha que ser você

It is not his day, it is not his week, not his month, and maybe it has not been his year. He flies from the States for his stranged daughter's marriage in London, but his job is hanging on a line and Harvey Shine does not have much time. He will have to fly back as soon as possible. Kate Walker works at a Heathrow booth and asks him if he would mind answering a questionnaire. He is very rude. Later Harvey will try to apologize.

It is a bittersweet drama, that could only be carried out by two stupendous artists as Emma Thompson and Dustin Hoffman.



Harvey Shine
: I'm gonna dance your socks off.

Kate Walker: I'm not gonna do it, because it'll hurt! Sometime or other there'll be, you know "It's not working." or "I need my space." or whatever it is and it will end and it will hurt, and I won't do it.
=^..^=
O filme Last Chance Harvey com Emma Thompson e Dustin Hoffman é muito bonito. Um drama/romance extremamente fino, pleno de emoção, que apenas dois estupendos atores como esses têm a capacidade de carregar: não seria preciso muito em termos de locações, embora Londres apareça linda, limpa, remoçada, sem chuva ou nuvens sombrias. Bastariam os rostos de Harvey e Kate para passar a mensagem.

Because it is Friday

This movie is worth watching! "Cousins" with the great Lloyd Bridges.


Vince Kozinski: What are you doing, son?

Larry Kozinski: I'm trying to make chicken salad out of this chickenshit.

By Marriage Related

The film still is "Cousins" with Ted Danson and Isabella Rosselini. He has a teenage boy and a live in girl friend. Presently he teaches dance classes; he is light, he is fun, he is considerate. She is married to an unfaithful husband and they have a little girl. She is a clerical secretary, serious and extremely shy. When they meet, things start to change.

Maria Hardy: How many jobs did you have?

Larry Kozinsky: I don't know. A lot. I change every two or three years. If it looks like I might be successful, I move on.

Maria Hardy: You don't want to be successful?

Larry Kozinsky: I want to be happy.

Um Toque de Infidelidade/Cousins


They become cousins through the marriage of Larry's uncle with Maria's Italian mother, which is when they meet for the first time. The party is over, but their partners have disappeared. When they finally arrive, their excuse is that her husband was trying to sell to his wife a car, so they were doing a test-drive on his BMW. In order to get even, Isabella Rosselini and Ted Danson decide that a prank on the cheaters was a good idea, but it is not how things turn out. A delicious chick-fllick.

=^.^=

Isabella Rosselini e Ted Danson tornam-se primos por casamento: o tio de Larry com a mãe italiana de Maria, que é quando se conhecem. Ambos acabam por serem os últimos a sair da festa, porque o marido dela estava, presumivelmente, fazendo um test-drive num BMW com a mulher dele. Para se vingarem, resolvem pregar uma peça nos adúlteros, mas o tiro acaba saindo pela culatra. Delicioso chick-flick.

The Joint

 



There are so many things to talk about Casablanca, the film... however, several will be lost to those watching the film that do not know much of what happened during Hitler's ascension to power in Germany and the consequent second World Wide War. 

The activities at Rick's Café Americain is watched closely by the gendarmerie in the city of Casablanca, Morocco, by then a French protectorate and one of the last resorts for people trying to flee the Jerrys. Captain Louis Renault frequents the bar as a gambler as well as an authority. Under the Vichy government, he collaborates with the German officers and will do everything in his power to prevent one leader of the French resistance to escape from Casablanca.

Casablanca


A classic film with Ingrid Bergman and Humphrey Bogart, in black and white, portrays a bar in the city of Casablanca in Morocco, last resort of fugitives from the Germans during World War II. Different characters frequent Rick's Café Americain in search of news from the other side of the pond, all willing to escape to the USA. Some pay for a trip that will never happen, some dream of finding a sponsor for a flight... Musicians, politicians, gendarmes, punks, jews, opportunists all float to the bar, day in, night out. Loves from the past encounter with the fatality hanging inexorably over their heads.




Numa aula sobre cinema na faculdade de Comunicação, o professor Mariani mencionou o filme “Casablanca”. Um dos alunos fez cara feia e o interrogou sobre o assunto. Um clássico filmado em 1942, o enredo complexo, de fino humor e de extrema profundidade, retrata um momento durante a II Grande Guerra num local que fervilhava de intrigas, de sofrimentos, de ganância, de esperança, de... milhares de coisas. Os roteiristas souberam temperar na dose exata o turbilhão de emoções de cada um dos personagens, mesmo os de mínimo destaque, para retratar os extremos a que o ser humano comum é submetido em situações de emergência. Claro que a pitada de romance existe entre dois grandes nomes de Hollywood na época: Humphrey Bogart e Ingrid Bergman. Acompanhados magistralmente por Peter Lorre e Claude Rains. A música “As time goes by” imortalizou-se aí. Com toda certeza, o aluno que ignorava o filme, hoje agradece pela indicação e o tem na prateleira entre seus favoritos.

Erin Brockovich: Are you going to be something else that I have to survive? Because... to tell you the truth... I'm not up to it.

Wisdom with Julia Roberts





In Notting Hill:

Anna Scott: No, leave it. I'm sure you didn't mean any harm, I'm sure it was just friendly banter, I'm sure you guys have dicks the size of peanuts. Enjoy your dinner, the tuna's really good!

Separados no Berço

O artista americano Kevin Sussman e o repórter brasileiro Cesar Tralli, que agora está na GloboNews. E não são apenas as feições que se parecem, mas o corpo também, é que não achei foto apropriada. Sussman pode ser visto, entre outros, no filme O Melhor Amigo da Noiva ou no meu preferido Hitch.

Joanne Herring: Go fight this war, Charlie. Everything possible is on the line - including your manhood!

Wisdom with Julia Roberts




In "The Pelican Brief":

Darby  Shaw: I told them I was your sister Mary in from out of town and couldn't find you.
Gray Grantham: [looks surprised] How'd you know I had a sister Mary?
Darby Shaw: You're not the only one who does research.

Mark Harmon






O post de hoje tem propósitos múltiplos:

1. É em Protesto, porque estamos cansadas das fotos "nada a ver" que nossos companheiros trocam em seus WhatsApps - Ele é lindo, não?

2. Ao galã podemos aplicar a canção "Onde andará Nicanor"... Ou não - você decide com as fotos de hoje e ontem: Mark perdeu o charme com o passar do tempo?

3. É uma dica de seriado e de filmes a serem garimpados.  "Curso de Verão" com o artista, que é bem sessão da tarde e "Como agarrar um bonitão" - o solteirão entra numa aposta afirmando que não vai se envolver com nenhuma das três  moçoilas propostas, que vai estar com elas ao mesmo tempo e mesmo assim se dar bem com todas. Situações bem engraçadas nesses chick-flicks. O ator foi jogador de futebol americano e hoje, grisalho, mas ainda lindo, é protagonista da série de televisão NCIS.

4. É um TGIF!
