  • If you read books, this film is for your soul.

    A literature teacher with a flair for old English-literature starts running low of readable stock, alas! of all places in New York. Even empties public libraries, and there was no IMDb-similar in those days... so she finally finds the address in England to mail-order the delicacies she expected: 84 Charing Cross Road in London. Being a bibliophile myself, then comes the most sublime part of the film, when she receives the first batch of books, previously owned and mastered editions, gosh of all goshes my own emotions as being raised with the best Classics ever printed, is really like kissing your first love! Ahhh, Anne Bancroft awed by the mail order service starts asking for more and rarer editions, but at the same time asks herself about the knowledgeable people behind the business and establishes a Pen-Pal relation with a typical London bookstore, of which I visited many back in 1986. She starts getting involved with their feelings and different way of life, what starts urging her desire to meet these distant friends...Eventually, her professor wage allows for the trip and...Oh, is an end that also happened to me looking for war-surplus stores.

  • Cry HAVOC ! and let slip the Dogs of War

    A comic approach to the "noir gender" of mercenaries and bodyguards, have gun, will travel sit-Com's, and a Magnum-44 Barrel of laughs is recommended to those that enjoy films like the Wild Geese, Dirty Harry, and have a subscription to Soldier of Fortune Magazine. In Latin America it has a comic strip counterpart: Boogie el Aceitoso drawn by Argentinian Fontanarrosa which in turn has a recent film. I used to tape in Betamax the series when it was aired in Mexico City, but for sure I shall buy the series in DVD. Woman-rights devotees, please don't see it and start complaining about rude language, see MTV Daria, who might very well be Sledgehammer!/ Boogie el Aceitoso Daughter because her obscure vision of society and her generation.

  • A trolley worker point of view.

    The newly born Servicio DE Transportes Eléctricos del D.F. had to do this film to demeaning the bad press caused by "La Venta" accident the previous year, the story and some actors come from Subida al Cielo, and show the company shops at Indianilla neighborhood in México City. Aside from Buñuel intention of a series of sit-coms, his surrealism becomes an every day fact in the Mexican way of life, such anecdotes still happen at STE, now mostly with trolleybuses and the Xochimilco LRV. When we got a VHS copy, we showed it at Tetepilco depot, amusingly the Transportation Dept. boss was also an Ingeniero Benítez, and our efforts to save rolling stock from the torch, have became a nice Traction Museum, without everyone around getting drunk, I'm the Union Historian and had to check it frame by frame to list appearing units: At the opening scene we see several types later succeeded by the first Westram trolley-coaches and a PCC in the Transfer-table, 133 real number was 378, a Brill 11 windows 2-trucker, many points of Mexico City to be checked, for example when they leave the school kids at a filming it was at Calzada de Tlalpan across the gates of CLASA-Films! and the Overhead-repair trolley that block the return to the depot is to be restored at Tetepilco Museum. must add more comments later---
