**Documentary film festival underway
BY ALEJANDRO CÁRDENAS O.
El Universal
February 10, 2006**_A while back, actors Gael García Bernal and Diego Luna went to see the Mexican documentary "Trópico de cáncer" by director Eugenio Polgovsky.
The film about a struggling family in San Luis Potosí left a powerful impression on the two young actors, who decided to look for a way to bring more noncommercial documentaries to the public.
The duo used their production company Canana, to start a project called "Ambulante," meaning "travelling" or "mobile" in English. In collaboration with Cinepolis, "Ambulante" will be bring 19 documentaries to 15 cities across the country.
Luna and García Bernal said they were interested in more than money when they came up with the idea for the festival.
"We watch movies too and these are the kind of movies we like to see in theaters," said García Bernal.
Luna added, "We believe the documentary is a form a cinema that invites us to reflect and debate."
In this first edition, there will be 12 Mexican works and seven from abroad, including Carlos Sandoval´s and Catherine Tambini´s "Farmingville" and Jonathan Caouette´s "Tarnation."
The films will be screened at the Cinépolis Diana and Universidad in Mexico City from Feb. 10 to 16. Admission is 25 pesos. For more info consult www.ambulante.com.mx._

"Ian Curtis Biopic Cast Casting has been announced for the upcoming Joy Division film, Control. Newcomer Sam Riley will play the brilliant-but-doomed singer Ian Curtis, who committed suicide in 1980 on the eve of the band's first American tour. Samantha Morton, who has previously been nominated for Oscars for her work in Woody Allen's Sweet And Lowdown and Jim Sheridan's In America, will play Curtis' widow, Deborah. (It is her book, Touching From A Distance, on which the screenplay is based.) German actress Alexandra Maria Lara, who just finished filming the new Francis Ford Coppola film Youth By Youth, will play the singer's lover Annik Honore. The film will be the first feature from acclaimed photographer and music video director Anton Corbijn (Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box"). Deborah Curtis and Tony Wilson, Factory Records founder and the subject of 24 Hour Party People, will both be credited as co-producers. According to NME, New Order will rerecord some Joy Division tracks, as well as lay down some new songs, for the soundtrack. The production team hopes to begin shooting in Manchester later this year."

"Rocker Marilyn Manson will make his feature directorial debut on Phantasmagoria - The Visions of Lewis Carroll, reports Production Weekly. In the film, Manson will play the author of "Alice in Wonderland."
Manson wrote the script with Anthony Silva and will score the music for the film, which will tie the life of Lewis into his famous poem, "Phantasmagoria". Fashion model Lily Cole will star as Alice, with Angelina Jolie in talks to play the Red Queen.
Production is scheduled to begin this summer with locations in Europe."

GLITTER'S LIVING HELL EXCLUSIVE
_
By Dave Hopkins And Gary Anderson–> POP pervert Gary Glitter has admitted he's going through hell in prison as he awaits trial on charges of molesting girls aged 10 and 11.
The loathsome paedophile who has been locked in a grim Vietnamese detention centre for nearly three months said: "This place is disgusting. It smells like dead animals."
But Glitter, 61, who has lost nearly four stone and now looks over 70, couldn't stop shamelessly trying to defend his sick lust for children during his first-ever talk from jail.
In a 30-minute meeting with a visitor, the disgraced glam rocker whined: "I've done nothing wrong. There's nothing wrong with having a relationship with a 12-year-old if it's consensual."
Glitter, who goes on trial a week tomorrow, told the visitor how he...
IS LOCKED in a cell 24 hours a day in suffocating 90degF heat.
IS FORCED to use a hole in the ground as a toilet in the stinking cockroach-infested cell.
WAS FED meals of DOG and FOX meat.
FEARS he will be beaten up by the guards who have nicknamed him "man who likes babies".
IS WRITING a prison diary in the deluded belief that British people will want to read a twisted defence of his child sex obsession.
WANTS to serve his sentence in Britain if he is convicted but fears he will be attacked by prisoners here.
Unrecognisable as the once-flamboyant 1970s star, Glitter has become a gaunt and grotesque-looking old man in southern Vietnam's hellhole Phuoc Co prison, a former military camp 50 miles from Saigon.
The chief warden, who fears his high-profile inmate might use his pop fortune to bribe an officer and escape, has put him in the most secure block in the compound.
Glitter sweats it out in a cell in a two-storey concrete block with 18-inch thick walls, bars on the windows and razor wire on the roof. A CCTV camera, usually trained on the perimeter wall patrolled by armed guards, has been swivelled round to permanently scan his rat-infested block. Dogs roam the compound to catch the rats. Prisoners then eat the dogs.
Glitter was allowed out of his filthy cell to meet the visitor but when he stepped off a concrete platform that surrounds the block the head guard snarled at him in Vietnamese and he cowered back, looking terrified.
The notorious paedophile, who fled Britain after serving a two-month sentence in 1999 for having child porn, told the visitor: "It's horrible here.
"Life was hard when they put me here. I couldn't believe the things they made me eat - dog and fox and God knows what some of the other things were. I got dysentery and lost weight very quickly. I think I've lost at least three or four stones."
And he revealed he lives in fear of attacks from other inmates, disgusted that he crossed the globe to abuse Vietnamese kids.
He said: "I have to watch my back because I've had threats. I know people are out to get me. It's not just the prisoners either. I know some of the guards would try it if they thought they would get away with it. The head guard hates me as well.
"I'm locked up in this hut 24 hours a day but I wouldn't go out even if I could."
As a remand prisoner, Glitter stays in his padlocked cell all day, escaping the jail's punishing work regime.
Other prisoners toil, wearing regulation thin black and white striped uniform, to build a new prison block.
Glitter said: "It's horrible here but there's far worse. Can you imagine me pushing a wheelbarrow round full of bricks out there. "It would kill me. If I'm convicted they will put me with those guys. But even if they did try to make me work, I would pay someone else to do it for me, don't worry there's always a way round these things."
He is only allowed out of the cell for occasional visits to the prison shop, but he sends his cellmate, a 40-yearold Vietnamese who speaks some English.
Glitter boasted how he was using the fortune built up from his music career to buy luxuries in jail.
He said: "Since my money came through I'm getting more used to life in here.
"My cellmate helps me. He cooks for me and I can get better Western food now so I'm eating better. "He cleans the cell, mucks out the toilet and carries bags for me. The place is still disgusting, it smells like dead animals, I know, but it's impossible to keep your cell or yourself clean.
"I also get him to go to the shop because I'm worried to go by myself."
The sickening pervert also believes his money will get him off the child-molesting charges, which carry a maximum seven year sentence. He said: "Money goes a long way here. People earn so little, a grand is all it takes to get what you want. The money I'm giving my lawyer is massive here. He's going to get me off. But if I am convicted I would like to go back to Britain to serve my sentence, although I know I might be attacked there. There's no way I'm staying in this hole."
Glitter claimed that sex tourist perverts routinely used bribes to escape jail. He said: "It was only because I'm so famous I wasn't able to. I should have been able to hand over a few quid and nothing more would have been said about it."
Glitter ranted on at the visitor about his "enemies" and the "Judases" he blames for putting him in jail.
He steadfastly refuses to admit he is there because of his own revolting child sex addiction.
And he tried to use the example of the Netherlands - where adults are not usually prosecuted for having sex with children aged 12-16 if they consent - to justify his actions.
He said: "None of this would ever have happened if it wasn't for all the Judases out to get me." When asked what his defence in court will be, he said: "I gave those girls books and helped them with their English and that's what I'll be telling the judge."
When the paranoid star isn't brooding over his situation, he plays cards with his cellmate or listens to a radio with fading batteries.
Glitter, who claims to have found God and become a Catholic, said: "I pray quite a bit too."
He has also given impromptu "concerts" of his hits including "I'm the Leader of the Gang (I am)" and "I Love You Love Me Love".
A far cry from Top of the Pops, the shamed rocker is reduced to performing for five other inmates in his block, plus the cockroaches and rats._

Qué grande el artículo sobre Gary Glitter… Está muy pallá este hombre...
Si hay mucho enfermo suelto. Yo reconozco q tengo algnos temillas de este hombre. Madre mía quien lo iba a decir. -
Me ha contado un pajarito bien informado lo siguiente.
En un muy famoso festival que se realiza a mediados de Junio en Barcelona:
1 - se subirá el precio del abono unos 20 euros
2 - se cambia uno de los patrocinadores. De una conocida marca de cerveza española con nombre de arcángel se pasa a una conocida marca de cervezas multinacional cuyo nombre empieza por Bud…La primera marca está que trina, por cierto.
3 - lo importante. Se están barajando dos cabezas de cartel. Naturalmente el segundo solo vendrá si falla el primero, que parece estar decidido pero que todavía se está en negociaciones con los sponsors por su elevado precio.
La opción 1 es un amega estrella, mujer, americana de pelo rubio cuyo último disco vende toneladas y que ha sido premiao con Grammys hace poco y cuyo single ha sido versioneado por La Terremoto de Alcorcón.
La opción 2 es una que la organización lleva la menos 2 años detras; un muy conocido trio blanco americano de hip hop que también ha sido pedido para el Primavera en estos foros y que, incluso, es el avatar de un forero.Hasta aqui puedo leer y no puedo dar nombres. Espero que vosotros tampoco los digais.
Cuando os repongais del soponcio, ya direis que os parece la cosa. Yo no salgo del asombro y si es cierto esto...pues nada, a vivir, tú.
-

¡No jod(piiiip)!
Edito después de haber tomado aire: pues por mi que les falle la primera opción (aunque tampoco me voy a comprar la entrada). Voy a seguir intentando recuperarme.

VENGA HOMBRE!!!
Lo de los tres raperos blancos se veía venir, pero lo de la virgencita, si es cierto, es para cagarse. -
…

Si todo eso es cierto…
... qué asco me da ese festival modelno.
-
Edit: (OK, no he dicho nada.)
-
@Ashes:
Hombre, no puedes hacer eso, tenías que decir: "Qué asco me da el $º/Va|2".
Edité rápidamente el nombre para que no se desvelara qué festival era. QUe es secreto…

-
Bien pensado, prefiero a /V\al)º/V/Va antes que a los Chemical Brothers, jeje.
-
Joder, vaya día de noticias e informaciones, jajajajajaja.
-
Me parece increíble que un festival que se hace llamar de música avanzada pueda llegar a contribuir a que ciertos elementos de la industria musical puedan seguir sobreviviendo como zorros del desierto, vendiendo que se reinventan. Que un festival """""alternativo"""""" sea cómplice de esa repugnante mutación de marketing es innombrable.
Esto es como los Rolling deseando parecer peligrosos en la Superbowl a través de la censura. Ahora resulta que la pendeja esa es, incluso, digna de etiquetarse como música avanzada, como adalid del futuro.
Lo siento, no puedo/quiero creerme eso. Hoy es San Valentín, no los Santos Inocentes.
-
Buah, pues yo me lo creo de todas todas. Viendo la tendencia del festival, me parece el paso más lógico que podían dar. Así se quitan la máscara de una vez por todas. Supongo que tendrán que cambiar de recinto si al final consiguen traer a la chiquilla esta, porque Fira 2 es muy grande, pero no tanto. Madre mia, la que se va a liar si se confirma la notícia.
Ya lo dijo alguien por aquí (creo que Pfister): Este festival, mejor no tocarlo ni con un palo. -
@pumpkin:281k613t:
Bien pensado, prefiero a /V\al)º/V/Va antes que a los Chemical Brothers, jeje.
Se dice /V\4l)º/V/V4.

Este asunto me da mucha grima. De todos modos, yo creo que el recinto de Fira 2 es inmenso (excesivamente inmenso). Aunque lo cierto es que ya no recuerdo lo que es un macroconcierto...

Cada día estoy más orgulloso de no haber pisado jamás ese festivalucho.
