I Killed My Mother
Year: 2009
Country: Canada
Genre: Biography/Drama
Director: Xavier Dolan

Mark: 1 to 5 [5!]

Plot: Hubert Minel, a brash 17-year-old, dislikes his mother intensely. He gauges her with contempt, only seeing her out-of-date sweaters, her kitschy decor and the vile bread crumbs that lodge in the corners of her noisy mouth. Below the surface of these irritating traits, lie the ingrained mechanisms that his mother has always cultivated so dearly – manipulation and guilt. Hubert, confused and torn by a love-hate relationship that obsesses him more and more each day, wanders in and out of an adolescence that is both marginal and typical, combining artistic discovery, openness to friendship, ostracism and sex.

Personal View: Best movie. Just the fact that the director is the writer and also the actor and be a biography movie, says for itself. The conflict with the mother so strong and impossible to happens an agreement. Normally french movies are good, and this didn’t disappointed me at all. Never saw before a mother singing Edith Piaf in a middle of a discussion, just awesome! Highly recommended!

Swine Flu in Mexico

The recent new i got when i back home was that they are asking people to not travel to US and Mexico.
People “should avoid traveling to Mexico or the U.S. unless it is very urgent for them,” Andorra Vassiliou said.

The swine flu is back and killing again. Until now we already got 26 cases in Mexico [and they think that this virus can be responsible for at least 03 deaths there], 6 in Canada and 2 in Spain, and they are looking for more cases in Israel and New Zealand.

All started on Monday when a young student back from Mexico to Spain had the virus confirmed.
President Barack Obama said Monday that the outbreak was a “cause for concern” but not a “cause for alarm.”

The swine flu is contagious by air and as the name said, usually affects pigs. So if is a pig disease the humans have no natural immunity against this virus, and to makes things harder during the ill the disease is in a constantly mutation. Nice isn’t?

The symptoms are similar to common flu. They include fever, lethargy, lack of appetite, coughing, runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

The virus spreads when an infected person coughs or sneezes around another person. People can become infected by touching something with the flu virus on it and then touching their mouth, nose or eyes.

So take care people. And just for a while don’t travel there. You ll be safer at your home away from there.

That’s all folks ;*
