The Hustler (1961) – very good movie! (for three reasons – inner fights / fight to be better than the system / well made script)

de

I just saw The Hustler (1961) for the second time. I actually saw the main scenes of the movie quite a few times during the past years, I liked reseeing the movie quite a bit. (note!) Spoilers ahead, don’t read the review unless you already saw the movie (note!) Some thoughts? The movie is intensely psychological. On the surface, it’s a movie on fights & winning. But the inner fights, the inner struggles are much deeper and are quite interesting to see. Some conflicts to see: Eddie Felson (Paul Newman), the main character, and his wish to win. Eddie Felson and his wish to beat his condition. Eddie Felson and his wish to never settle for something small. Eddie Felson and his fight with the systems (he is insubordinate, he always fights). Eddie Felson and his fight with being better. Eddie Felson and his fight with its vices (drinking). Eddie Felson and his fight of being the successful capitalist, rather than the unsuccessful socialist (there’s a fight with other people, who prefer people to be equal one to the other; he develops his skills, others want to drag him down). Minnesota Fats (Jackie Gleason), the already-proved champion, and his fight to always succeed. Minnesota Fats and his fight to be a kind person, nevertheless. Sarah Packard (Piper Laurie), Eddie’s girl, and her fight to have a fulfilled life. Sarah Packard and her fears of the unknown. Sarah Packard and her fears of not being loved. Bert Gordon (George C.

I just saw A few good men (1992) for another time (I think I saw this movie more than 5 times, during the past about 20 years or so) and the top scenes more than that.

Sugestia mea ar fi să vedeți filmul și abia ulterior să reveniți să citiți cele de mai jos (deși nu sunt multe lucruri cele pe care le voi spune). De asemenea, nu vă sugerez să vedeți trailerul decât după ce vedeți, mai întâi, filmul.

Review: Lenovo IdeaTab K3 Lynx 11.6-Inch 64 GB Tablet (and a review of the repair process)

tablet

In July 2013 I bought Lenovo IdeaPad K3 Lynx 11.6-Inch 64 GB Tablet from the US. I had it in my hands since August. I paid $347.84 for the tablet and $22.99 for the cover. The joy of owning it was little, because it broke, and I had to repair it. Below, some feed-back on the process and on the tablet itself.
