Abi Stricker

Student

Well, I am not good at short autobiographies. I am not good at autobiographies, so bare with me.
I am a college student, who recently rediscovered her love for cinema. It was always there, that feeling of wonder and... a feeling close to passion. I am very interested on photography, cinematography and writing (I wouldn't shy away from any job in a film), but until now I was kind of afraid of exploring all this. So, here I am, to learn and try to be part of this world (so original).

Article Comment – 4 Elements of a Good Story

Francis was the first one that came to my mind when I read the article (maybe because I rewatched House yesterday). Underwood is not likeable, under any term. He is worse than many of his competitors, he is many times horrible to his wife, his lover, his friends and people, he bends and destroys 'good' rules. He has a hard past yes, but it's not enough. You like him because of his will to overcome gigantic obstacles, to be able to do anything to get to where he wants to be. He's ruthless, he doesn't stop and is not afraid to use anyone.
I think the audience cheer on for Frank despise not being likeable, because of who he is not (he's not the classical archetype).

Article Comment – Breaking the Fourth Wall is Not the Most Important Storytelling Element in ‘The Big Short’

I preferred The Big Short to Spotlight by a mile for Best Picture. It is original using the fourth wall, and it has that heart that most over passed it. Mark Baum, along with a bit of Brad Pitt character, is that heart, it is the emotional catastrophe that an economic collapse brings (I am from Argentina, trust me in this one). Selena Gomez and Margot Robbie are just a comedy relief
