Albert Nobbs

Glenn Close has certainly broken barriers with this gender bending film that has got people talking. The Albert Nobbs movie stars Glenn Close as a woman living her life as a man in 19th century Ireland. This movie has earned a lot of talk from people all over the world and also from fans of Glenn Close. It is also worth noting that Glenn Close is nominated for Best Actress in a Motion Picture in the Golden Globe for her performance in the movie. She has been fighting to bring this project that was based on a novella “The Singular Life of Albert Nobbs by George Moore in1927. Audiences have different comments when it comes to Close’s performance. An audience from Rotten Tomatoes said that the film had its flaws but the performances of Close and McTeer certainly helped the movie rise above it. Although, there are some who were a bit disappointed. (http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/albert_nobbs/reviews/?type=user) Close first played the part of Albert Nobbs in an Off Broadway performance in 1982 and now it will grace the big screen on January 27, 2012. The film is directed by Rodrigo Garcia and produced by Chrysalis Films, Mockingbird Pictures, Parallel Film Productions and WestEnd Films.

It's a heartbreaking story that will really hit home. Albert on the surface is a simple man, but underneath lies a wealth of feeling, confusion, and love. The film ends with the beautiful song "Lay Your Head Down" with lyrics by Close herself, music by Brian Byrne, and sung by Sinead O'Connor. It reminded me of "Into the West" by Annie Lennox, the Oscar winning song from Lord of the Rings: Return of the King. This song from Albert is somber, sweet, and plays like a lullaby. I think it's safe to say that is exactly what it is; a lullaby for Albert, a character whose life has been so strenuous and tiresome.

P.S- This film is based on the 19th century Irish writer George Moore's short story 'The Singular Life of Albert Nobbs'.

[ One Flew Over a Cuckoo´s Nest ]

There is a town in north Ontario,
With dream comfort memory to spare,
And in my mind
I still need a place to go,
All my changes were there.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us

Helpless, helpless, helpless

Baby can you hear me now?
The chains are locked
and tied across the door,
Baby, sing with me somehow.

Blue, blue windows behind the stars,
Yellow moon on the rise,
Big birds flying across the sky,
Throwing shadows on our eyes.
Leave us

Helpless, helpless, helpless.

An elegantly told, love story, spiced with mechanical cats and the cutest girl in a red coat since... "don't look now"

The cast is also above average, especially for German Daniel Brühl ("Inglourious Basterds"), newcomer Claudia Vega and rightly awarded Lluís Homar ("Broken Embraces"), who plays to perfection a butler robot with different levels of emotionality. Technically, the film is beyond reproach at all levels (for the 12 Goya nominations are proof of that), especially beyond the special effects and Xavi Bastida Joseph M. Meneses ("Pan's Labyrinth"), music and Evgueni Galperine Sacha, a photograph of Arnau Valls Colomer and assembly of Elena Ruiz ("The Orphanage").

Blue-blooded

I hold out my hands and I touch love.

I need to talk with you

meet me in... (Paris)

All I need

all i need is a little time,
to get behind this sun and cast my weight,
all i need is a peace of this mind,
then i can celebrate.

all in all there's something to give,
all in all there's something to do,
all in all there's something to live,
with you...

all i need is a little sign,
to get behind this sun and cast this weight of mine,
all i need is the place to find,
and there i'll celebrate.

all in all there's something to give,
all in all there's something to do,
all in all there's something to live,
with you.
