Juan Diego Botto- Argentine-Spaniard………….

I love this picture. It is from Sobrevivire (I will Survive 1999) with Juan Diego Botto (he is in the middle). He is introducing his ex-partner on the left to his new partner……a mujer! You could feel the tension between these two. If you think it’s bad for a girl to find out her boyfriend has dumped her for a guy, think again because something feels really funny when you are gay and you find out that your ex is now with a girl…..just a LITLLE bit of jealousy, vengeance, etc. The movie was great and I highly recommend it.
Botto is superb in Martin (Hache) too. He left Argentina when he was 2 after his father disappeared in the “Dirty War” and moved to Madrid where he currently lives. The movie is a shockingly honest portrayal of father-son relationships and will make you cry in the end (if you are like me
)
Now that summer is over, I hope to jump into my classes. I will have more classes this semester as I hope to relate in more detail later. I hope that I can incorporate some of my class requirements into this blog. ………..more pictures and updates to come.
