What have I seen on Netflix? Colony, second season

Source

Yesterday I finished watching the second season of Colony on Netflix and I still find it an interesting series, with the necessary elements to follow it closely chapter by chapter, without losing sight of the main plot that focuses on the survival of the Bowman family that tries, by all means, to emerge unscathed from the alien invasion.

What is true is that the thirteen chapters of this second season, are not as exciting as those of the first installment and some chapters are a little dispensable and try to resolve issues that have little that they see with the main plot that is the one that interests us.

However, and in spite of this, the series follows me interesting result, because it keeps you in front of the television with enough expectation not to take the step to continue with something else.

OPINIÓN

Ayer terminé de leer Castigos justificados de Michael Hjorth y la impresión final es que no me ha gustado ni la trama principal ni las subtramas adyacentes que, en mi opinión, estaban en el texto de relleno, porque esas subtramas no aportaban ni estaban relacionadas con la trama principal.

Creo que las subtramas son pertinentes cuando estas están relacionadas con la trama principal, si no es así, parece, como ocurre en esta novela, que la columna vertebral de la novela no da para más y el autor tiene que contar historias para aumentar el número de páginas final y eso se nota mucho en este libro.

Yesterday's way

Source: own

Cover me with your mantle, 

the one of silence, the one of waiting,

the one with the lie,

that one, ragged by the dust of oblivion.

I will stand still,

opening the pores to sweat,

and spit out the memories of your dead, 

their forgotten bones in the moldy corners.

I will try to get up, 

a hand resting on the soul,

and the knees in living flesh 

after going through your guilty silences.

I will look at you standing,

staggering,

looking for the right balance between soul and heart,

leaning on the staff of resignation,

seeking in your eyes the tears of forgiveness.

I will turn around, turning my back on you,

Stay! Stay!

but I'll take what couldn't have been,

and what it wasn't,

the wreckage of the shipwreck in the abyss,

the rudder aimlessly

and the letters that no one will read anymore.

Only the wake of your imprisoned memories will remain,

the photographs of smiles and sunset,

the broken and lying mirrors,

your rain through the glass

and coffee afternoons with your ghost.

What have I seen on Netflix? Collateral

OPINION

Between Saturday and Sunday I finished watching the mini-series Collateral, which has Netflix on screen, and I was pleasantly impressed, because it is a series that deals with such a hot topic as immigration and the mafias of human trafficking. 

As I say, I liked the main plot, which starts with the death of a pizza delivery man of Arabian race. From then on, the plot advances, chapter after chapter, with an acceptable rhythm, until, in the third chapter (the mini-series has four chapters), the series slows down, as if it needed to catch a little air to keep moving forward.

In each chapter, the knots of the miniseries, the main plot and the subplots are untied. To say that the subplots are related to the main plot, but linked to smoking paper, that if they were removed, in my opinion, the tape would work in the same way. However, if we removed them, the mini-series would have remained a classic film. Perhaps this is the part of the sub-plots, the weakest part of the miniseries, because of the rest, it is enough to spend a Sunday afternoon.

The vinaigrette and its flowers

Source: own

Yes, I know, it's the second time I've taken a flower from the vinaigrette, but it's just that I couldn't resist taking pictures of these simple, but at the same time, beautiful flowers.

Moreover, like the theatre, each photograph is different, it is never the same, because, simply, each moment is different, because everything changes in the next instant.

You take a picture now and you take a picture the next second and you already have another picture. Maybe you don't perceive it with the naked eye, but something has changed, like the light, because the sun is no longer in the same place, the passage of a cloud that makes a semi-transparent screen, the flight of a bird, in short, that the world we know changes with each step we take.

That's why I took the photograph because the set, light, colors and flowers, seemed to me worthy of immortalizing it, with which I didn't think much about it.
