WATCH THE GREAT “CLOSER

WATCH THE GREAT “CLOSER - Too Close,” came to mind a poem called “Salvation,” Nei Duclos, who has a beautiful verse that says: “No person’s resting place.” Time and again this verse haunts me, and it worked out nicely for the story that I followed within the film, in which four people relate to each other and never give a satisfied, following always looking for something that does not know exactly what it is. There is no interaction with other characters or with the trivial matters of life. It is a Egotrip that does not allow advance, you will not find a way out - which is ironic, because the greatest fear of the four is exactly the paralysis, need to be constantly in motion. They certainly attest, no person is resting place. Despite the fun dialogues, is a sad movie. Dry. A microscopic gaze on what the third millennium has to offer: a wide range of sexual options and total disengagement with eternity - nothing was meant to last. If you are not happy, just to pack and hit the door. Relations more honest, more practical and more exciting. Should look like paradise, but the fact is that we left the theater with a bitter taste in the mouth. Over time, we become mature people, we learn to cope with our losses and not have so many illusions. We know that we will not find a person who, alone, will get 100% match to all our expectations ¿sexual, emotional and intellectual. Those who do not conform with that adopt the rotation and enjoy life. So good, that wonder, then they should suffer less, no? The problem is that nobody is so mature to the point of giving up what’s left of her innocence. Still hurts exchange romanticism by skepticism, still keep traces of fairy tales. Even the life out there flirting shamelessly with us, seducing us with proposals such as “take two, pay an” also seems tempting to counter the back of Duclos and find someone who calms our hysteria makes us stop and searches. There is nothing wrong with enjoying the calm of a relationship that is not exciting, but offers in return the blessing of intimacy and shared silence, no one else to worry about lying or telling the truth. When you’re many years with the same person, the chances are good you know she is no longer necessary to spell all the time their contradictions, their motives, their desires. Saves a lot about words and gestures speak for themselves. Want something better than can be quiet next to someone without either of them to mess with that? Long relationships can cross the border of strangeness, one turns the other country. Friendship with sex is also a legitimate way of relating, even if not well regarded by thrill-seekers. There is anxiety that is measured by the grandeur of a feeling. Sit back, both facing to the moon, with moon, or forward to rain, with rain, and together they make a toast with glasses, they contain wine or coffee, this is called a truce. A peaceful relationship between two people, without worrying about being modern or timeless, they made each other their resting place. Too lazy to return to action? Often, it is. But also go to know, love can be.
