ELEGY

Creo que fue Bette Davis la que dijo "La vejez no es para mariquitas". Pero Tolstoi dijo "La mayor sorpresa de la vida es la vejez".
La vejez te acecha y de pronto te preguntas, me pregunto ¿Por qué los viejos no se portan como viejos? ¿Cómo es posible que siga metido en los aspectos carnales de la comedia humana? Porque en mi cabeza no ha cambiado nada.

J'ai tué ma mère (2009)

"Lo digo y lo pienso.
La quiero, pero no es el amor de un hijo. Es extraño. Si alguien le hiciera daño, mataría a esa persona. Pero a la vez conozco a cientos de personas a las que quiero más que a mi madre. Es bastante paradójico. Eres incapaz de querer a tu madre, pero no eres capaz de no quererla."

Il n'est d'autre chose à tuer dans cette vie que l'ennemi intérieur, le double au noyau dur.
Le dominer est un art.
¿À quel point sommes-nous artiste?

No hay otra cosa que matar en esta vida que el enemigo interior, el doble núcleo duro.
Dominarlo es un arte.
¿Hasta qué punto somos artistas?

By Xavier Dolan (1989), protagonista, director, guionista y productor del film.
