With roughly only a week before the Oscars it's normal talking about Roma and its surroundings.
After all Roma is the big favorite to win Best Picture and Best Director and Best Cinematography.
Those are the three top prizes.

I know that few here don't agree with this, and it's perfectly fine as they have their own opinion.
We base our opinion on our experience and good judgement.
Nobody is telling us how to form our own opinion; this is something personal that we all learn on our own journey here on Earth while alive, and while still breathing.

Nobody is telling which music album we should like, which film is best, which picture is good, what is bad, what is wrong, how to live our lives free and happy with respect, dignity and righteousness.

Yet, we live in a world of constant conflicts on a daily basis.
Eg.; https://www.reuters.com/article/us-...acial-slur-against-roma-actress-idUSKCN1Q503M

Or/and many other negative comments and actions ever present in the news, on TV, in the social medias, ...

I am tired, very tired. This is not my ideal world with ideal citizens of the world.
I have more respect for the squirrels in my trees than people like that 60-year old man making comments like that one above.

This is four days old Steve; someone was interested to find out how that scene @ the beach was filmed. You read me wrong, I am not here for what you suggest. I am not here for what you think.
I am not here looking for trouble. I am here to enjoy life and share what I like in it; music, films, nature, scientific discoveries, photographs, the planet, the universe, ...all what is best.
...Just like everyone else.

Thank you.

Yes because fans like I we love good films on physical media and it's the first time that a Netflix flick comes on a Blu-ray disc. And the highest reason was because Alfonso Cuarón loves Blu-ray too and contacted Criterion Collection for a joint venture. I love the film, it's my favorite of the last ... some years, and the soundtrack is a masterpiece as the cinematography.
The Dolby Atmos score (sound effects) is so realistic that it's like being right there with the family and all the action. No Mickey mouse Froot Loops CGI and prefabricated synthesized and hospital sanitized sound stuff here. ...No Marvel/DC comic book superheroes and supervillains.

I take your comment as a positive Jim.
