A veces perdonamos a alguien porque su ausencia duele mas que el error que cometió.
Libros ficticios en películas
1 “The Agreeble Age” de autor desconocido, (más que probablemente una invención de Hitchcock) que lee Eva Marie Saint en “Con la muerte en los talones” (North by Northwest).
2 y 3 En “Misery” la serie de novelas que escribe Paul Sheldon aparecen en varios momentos. El tipo de cubierta da bastantes pistas sobre el tipo de literatura de que se trata.
4 “Family of Geniuses” de Etheline Tenenbaum. En “Los Tenenbaums. Una familia de genios” (The Royal Tenenbaums).
Del 5 al 8 “Sonata para un buen hombre” de Georg Dreyman que aparece en “La vida de los otros”. Junto con el "nadie es perfecto" de "Con faldas y a lo loco" (Some Like It Hot) me parece uno de los mejores finales de película.
Hay otros libros que se mencionan en películas pero cuya portada no aparece. En “Wonder Boys” se menciona “Hija de pirómano” el libro de Grady Tripp que se convirtió en un éxito tal que desde entonces sufre un bloqueo. En las películas de Woody Allen a menudo el protagonista es un escritor y ha escrito o está escribiendo un libro, por ej. sobre Manhattan.
My love
And I will love him
For life, and I will never let a day go by..
without remembering the reasons why,
HE makes me certain, that I can Fly.
Somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said
you felt so happy you could die
I told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end
Always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing
it was always something that I'd done
But I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody
that you used to know
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody
I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Somebody
I used to know
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
I used to know
That I used to know
I used to know
Somebody
