El cine FANTÁSTICO, a diferencia del social, tiene un modo particular de tratar MENSAJES UNIVERSALES, a través de un filtro codificado; por lo que trascienden su época y se vuelven INMORTALES.

Hoy toca un #HILO de este tipo de películas que hablan del hoy más que del ayer⬇️⬇️ Image
Concretamente, hablaremos de PELÍCULAS que, aun estando contaminadas por hechos de su época, tratan el CONTEXTO del #COVID19. Se vuelven, de hecho, ACTUALES.

Podemos, por tanto, hablar de películas con amenazas SIN EXPLICACIÓN, sin justificación: #AmenazasInvisibles. Image
No voy a empezar por orden cronológico, prefiero comenzar por la amenaza jamás explicada de #ElDiabloSobreRuedas (#Duel, 1971) de STEVEN SPIELBERG. Image

To celebrate the pending 120th anniversary of Alfred Hitchcock's birth, we begin here a longish thread recalling the film where Hitch's young career was very nearly derailed by a boy on a bus with a bomb (and a puppy😁). #Hitchcock #AlfredHitchcock
A loose adaptation of Joseph Conrad's 1907 novel, The Secret Agent, SABOTAGE (1936) co-stars Oscar Homolka, as a terrorist; and features Desmond Tester, as a likable schoolboy who is unwittingly dispatched to deliver a bomb hidden in a package, which must arrive before 1:45 p.m.
Thus begins an eight-minute sequence wherein the camera follows the boy as he makes his way across a section of London, all the while carrying a bomb. As Hitchcock later told Truffaut: 'I made a serious mistake in having the little boy carry the bomb...' #AlfredHitchcock
