One day (almost) perfect TV
strange things happen lately. Perhaps the main culprit is my paranoia, fueled by a life well spent at the screen constantly for something (PC, mobile phone, television, cinema), and exacerbated by more than a week forced to stay inside of my home, because of poor health.
I do not really hope to anyone, and anyway, paranoia or not, the other day I happened to think that watching TV can occasionally be without losing all his time. It was Inauguration Day for Barack Obama, and the six I turned on the RAI to hear the speech, I went first on the drive, then on two, and the whores were typical of that time period. Shame, I thought, a historic day, regardless of what everyone thinks of the new president, and the "state television" does not care. At least, RAI mainstream, and in fact on three things are different: there's arrival and Giovanna Botteri (very good) who is talking to Washington and tell what you see and what you feel, not only through hearing , standing there. Well, today I must say that I envy the Americans, not because I would give my Country decaying even just something that had to happen near the strength of what has happened recently to the United States. And it is in direct Story What I'm seeing and hearing: Obama's speech, simultaneously translated badly but which are perceived as strength, simplicity and the strength, Dick Cheney in a wheelchair in his apartment as he dropped the bags ; Bush and his wife accompanied back to take the helicopter finally, once and for all, free us from their presence in the capital. I listen and look around, register now, I feel good in the studio commentators (people never seen before, for once), then the live ends, and I'm happy to dinner.
But this is not all: the case for why I land, I hate watching TV while I eat and are forced to do it every day on Rai2 where they are broadcasting the first episode of the second series of Inspector Coliandro . Well, it is strong. I have fun. Bravi. There are swear words in prime time, but there is no vulgarity, there is a story that makes you laugh, and it is also a story well done. There are jokes that you do not expect, original characters, a city quite unusual (the character is by Carlo Lucarelli). In short, the new series of Manetti bros (the mythical Manetti bros, those who had experienced five years ago, with almost no other, to create the first models of narrative Audiovisual for the Web) is truly captivating. Congratulations.
And the grand finale of the day is always on Rai2 cathode, which airs immediately after the beautiful country called Po A second episode. The first I've lost, I knew that they would begin in January, look forward to the program, and I was not disappointed. There are no fees, only tributes to the past, poignant: Mario Soldati and his Journey into the Po Valley, a wonderful product of the golden age of Italian television, Ugo Tognazzi, which for me is simply a hero, here in conjunction with an irresistible gag Celentano; to Novecento by Bernardo Bertolucci (Giuseppe Bertolucci while dealing here Filming, wonderful), Silvana Mangano and De Santis. And I think the visual beauty of the work must also something documentaries from Gianni Hidden, but never explicitly mentioned in the breath feels wide and deep. But the pace is crackling, and there are no patterns: just tells you what you should tell, or the unusual that is hidden behind the usual surface of things, in the valley of the great river. With effect from a pilot's Edmondo Berselli, good, honest, not at all "television": do not the conductor, is a bit 'narrator and a little' character himself among the other characters ... Well people, it is useless for me to stay here for so menarla: watch the program because it's beautiful.
