It’s still Christmas.
No es veinticuatro de diciembre, ni veinticinco. Es veintiséis y estamos en Navidad.
Le pedí a Jaime que escribiera algo sobre la Navidad. Básicamente lo que le transmiten para él estos días, él suele escribir textos sobre películas. Honestamente a veces creo que me falta algo de “mundo” cultural a nivel libros y películas. Tendría que ponerme a leer más al iniciar el día, y a ver pelis interesantes sin quedarme dormida por la noche.
Me contesto con un texto breve y algo escueto. Añadiendo a la lista de pelis que tengo que ver una mas.
I asked Jaime to write something about Christmas. Basically what is transmitted to him these days, he usually writes texts about films. Honestly, sometimes I think I’m missing some cultural “world” at the level of books and movies. I should start reading more at the start of the day, and watch interesting movies without falling asleep at night.
He answered me with a short and somewhat concise text. Adding one more to the list of movies I have to see.
“That quirky essential spirit is flying in the air, they call that Christmasy magical buzz!! Indeed, that visual stimuli, we engage in, needs the right uplift! I’m thinking Paul Thomas Anderson, wow, this guy is amazing. The vibe he feeds us, is another level. I chose Punch Drunk Love, to view with sherry plus a mince pie, I’ll most likely have a second dose of sherry plus another delicious pie! That Christmas feel is magical when you get just right! Adam Sandler, is wonderful, a truly unique actor, I could truly watch this film for the intrigue over & over”.

Quizá la navidad sea eso. Quizá Londres.
Maybe Christmas is that. Maybe London.
