70 años de Lo que el viento se llevo

"A Dios pongo por testigo que nunca más volveré a pasar hambre", "Francamente querida me importa un bledo" son dos de las frases más recordadas dentro del cine y pertenecen a una película, Lo que el viento se llevo. Hoy hace 70 años del estreno de la película protagonizada por Vivian Leight como Scarlett O'Hara,  papel por el que tuvo que pelear con actrices como Lana Turner o Katherine Hepburn, y Clark Gable como Rhett Butler.
La película fue una megaproducción de la época con un presupuesto de 4,25 millones de dólares y campañas publicitarios a gran escala.
El premio al esfuerzo fueron 13 candidaturas a los Oscars de los que ganó 13 entre ellos el de mejor película, director, actriz principal, actriz secundaria y guión.
La película recaudo 400 millones de dólares, todo un éxito para la época.

Promoción de TCM para el 70 aniversario de Lo que el viento se llevó.

Videojuegos cada vez más cinematográficos

Hoy voy a hablar sobre videojuegos y las razones son muy sencillas. La industria de los videojuegos es una, sino la más importante en estos momentos y, gracias a las consolas de nueva generación los videojuegos son cada vez más realistas y nos hacen meternos en un mundo de película.

Hay muchos ejemplos pero mi experiencia sólo está limitada a los juegos de la PlayStation 3 y entre sus videojuegos a destacar Uncharted 2, Assassin's Creed II, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 y en el futuro Heavy Rain.
Aquí os dejo algunos videos

Assassin's creed II

Uncharted 2

Heavy Rain
