Serial Killer Alberto Rey's blog
Alberto married is taking a lot of sticks for
Everything else
.
In the April Zamora series for HBO Max, the skinny half of Pantomina Full provides an unnecessary and insufferable voice-over.
It's not your fault either.
His speech, similar to that of his viral videos with Rober Bodegas, will be criticized, but in
Todo
el
otro
(HBO Max) Casado is a command.
I assume that Abril Zamora knows what we know him about and that is why she has hired him
.
In addition, its presence has a trick (and I can read that far).
The one that has no trick is the series. Or I have not seen it. Maybe it's because
Everything
Else is
n't about me. Let me explain: the environments that both fictions describe are recognizable to me but
the generation gap that separates me from their characters at times turns into an abyss.
They are reluctant (in a way that is as pathetic as it is potentially interesting) to live the thirty that the world has prepared for them while I already navigate a quarantine in which obsessing with Instagram or Tinder (excuse me: Coupler) is not on my list of priorities.
The characters in
Everything Else
, caught in the loop of mediocrity and busted expectations work quite well. That honors Abril Zamora, creator and star of the series. The problem is that it is precisely Dafne, his alter ego in fiction, the most orthopedic and irritating of
All the other
. Something very problematic when it comes to the absolute center of a series whose English title,
Dafne and the Rest
, makes it very clear who is the protagonist.
And now is when I open a melon that I promised myself not to touch when I started watching this series. Here we go: could it be that the insistence on pointing to Alberto Casado as the main error of
Todo lo otro
is the consequence of excessive caution towards Abril Zamora and her work?
Would we be thus avoiding entering a sterile and unfair controversy about the trans experience
, fearing that an attack on the series could be taken as an attack not so tangential to its creator? I think so.
And it's a shame, because regardless of its quality,
Todo lo otro
is a milestone in the Spanish audiovisual industry: a trans woman commanding a series about a trans woman
. Having said all this, can it be added that this trans woman (Dafne, not Abril) is unbearably childish, with or without a voiceover by Alberto Casado? Can your series be described as a tiresome apology for the little house?
The overrated
Thirty-something
, a repulsive portrait of the existential anguish of some extremely handsome thirty-somethings in the Philadelphia of the late 1980s, took several more years to be put in place for what it was: the repulsive portrait of the existential anguish of a few. Very handsome thirty-somethings in the Philadelphia of the late 80s.
All the other
, born in fast and capricious times, will not be able to enjoy that privilege.
Just as its characters will not be able to enjoy everything that at 20 they dreamed they would have at 30.
Something that, dear Dafne, has been happening since the world is world
.
Dear Daphne and dear April.
