En mi libro (todavía en proceso) «Lorca y el cuerpo queer» escribo sobre San Sebastián tanto como la influencia de Ramón y Cajal en los dibujos. Quedad a la espera de ello!
Federico García Lorca dibujó así a San Sebastián en 1927, cuando sus trazos estilizados se inspiraban en las neuronas dibujadas por el científico Santiago Ramón y Cajal

las manos jovenes abriendo la caja de blancas y las manos viejas las negras... cinema. y luego le sumas enrique diciendo "Hay una grana' nueva, que despierta en cada calle, y abre sus mil balcones a una libertad más grande. Y hay otra grana' antigua que quiere helarnos la sangre"

I couldn't help but wonder while watching this movie how much of the poetry in these dialogues was lost in translation. Especially Lorca's poem that ties all three timelines together.

sebastián es el único punto de luz de la imagen que destaca por su ropa blanca sobre el resto en el centro, dando ese punto de mayor “calidez” y aún así es tenue por el contexto de que irremediablemente, esa luz se va a apagar y ya esta empezando a hacerlo

embarrassing confession: i used to (long ago) think DIY hrt meant brewing that shit at home like breaking bad and i was honestly on board

have basically been stumbling over my words trying to articulate how much this moved and meant me for the past half hour and still no closer to coherence but what i can clearly say is this is not only my movie of the year by far beyond any shadow of a doubt but also just one of the best i think i’ve ever seen period. and i don’t care how hyperbolic that sounds because seeing queer love, loss, desire, repression, and every other emotion of ours in between depicted on such an epic, sweeping, and decade-spanning scale like this and given the weight and depth our stories have always deserved to drive home just how much our lives matter and how unjust our suffering in silence has always been had me in tears on and off for two hours straight. the la nieve scene is instant cinema history.
“i think it can help people like me and like you but younger.”
“help them how?”
“so they don't end up like me and you.”
