"...Mais tarde, alguém entre o público haveria de simular um espirro e aí, sim, dá-se o contágio do riso. ..."

"...Como destaque, sobrou “A Postcard to Nina”, rendida em modo adequadamente académico: a canção do rapaz obrigado a conhecer o pai esperançoso de uma jovem gay, como se isso fosse um exame social, contou com uma intérprete (uma Sara impecável) a traduzir para português os diálogos e detalhes que não fazem parte da versão registada em disco (mais parecem extraídos de um western de Sergio Leone). Com isto, “A Postcard to Nina” transformou-se num épico com mais de 10 minutos. ..."

Images of victory

Images of victory

By Peter Caddick-Adams

The photographer of this enduring image of war has died. A row ensues over whether it, like other iconic photos of victory, was staged. Does it matter?


What photographs spring to mind if you think of World War II?
The death of Joe Rosenthal reminds us of one of the most enduring images of that war, the raising of the US flag on Iwo Jima - a photograph taken by him on 23 February 1945.
Rosenthal - then aged 33 and working for the Associated Press agency - was excused military service on account of his poor eyesight, yet found himself in the middle of the Pacific War's fiercest combat zone.
He followed a US Marine group up to the summit of Mount Suribachi, a volcano on the southern tip of the island, and whilst the fighting was ongoing he snapped six men raising the Stars and Stripes.
But it now appears this was the second flag raised on the spot, a smaller flag having been erected three hours earlier. Rosenthal's picture won him instant fame and many awards, but a strained relationship with the US Marines who had raised their flag earlier.
A thousand words
Enormous controversy arose as to whether the image was staged or depicted a genuine snapshot, a "freeze-frame" during the battle. The incident produced a book in 2000, Flags Of Our Fathers by James Bradley, the son of one of the original six flag raisers.
Now switch to some other iconic images of war. The next is the raising of another flag during WWII, this time over the Reichstag in Berlin. Arguably as well-known, and representing Victory in Europe, it was shot by Soviet photographer Yevgeni Khaldei on 2 May 1945, as the last Nazi forces resisted in Berlin.
But it, too, is surrounded by controversy. The German parliament building was stormed and taken on 30 April, when a flag - specifically set aside for planting on the symbol of Nazi power - was held aloft that evening.
Khaldei's image, with a snapshot vitality about it (again with a specially-made flag) was staged a couple of days later in daylight. Even that had to be retouched as at least one of the Red Army soldiers had been on a looting spree and was wearing several wristwatches.
Readers will remember the toppling of Saddam's statue in central Baghdad on Wednesday 9 April 2003. I was in Qatar at the time and well remember the feeling of jubilation and relief amongst the local Arab, media and military communities - a sense of "it's all over now".
Again, the event has become surrounded by controversy. We now know most of the pictures and film were made with narrow camera angles, concealing the fact there were actually very few people in Firdus Square at the time.
The statue was pulled down by an American M88 armoured recovery vehicle, quite a rare beast in central Baghdad just then. Also, the crowd seemed to include Ahmed Chalibi and some of his Iraqi forces militia, last heard of in exile overseas. One photographer snapped an Iraqi waving a banner which read "Bye Bye Saddam" in English.
These three enduring images of victory turn out to have been staged, or at least were not the initial, spontaneous portrayal of events they seemed to be.
Risky business
There is no suggestion here that the pictures themselves were doctored - apart from the removal of a looted wristwatch or two - just that they "don't do what it says on the packet". The question we have to ask is, does it matter?
In some ways it does offend sensibilities that we may have been gently hoodwinked. On the other hand, consider who the images are for. There are many "stakeholders" in a war. The soldiers fighting it, their loved ones at home, war workers, neutral nations, political leaders - and the enemy.
The images of Rosenthal, Khaldei and from Firdus Square communicated a different message to all these important groups in a way print or the human voice could never do. Particularly to the enemy, the message was loud and clear - throw down your weapons, you've lost.
This is exactly what businesses, sportsmen and politicians do, confirm they've won with an appropriate picture, whether sporting a rosette, waving an outsized champagne bottle or cutting a silk ribbon to open a new headquarters. And in war, capturing the essential moment is often extremely hazardous. So if the message is "assisted" in its composition, should we be surprised or offended?
Many of the famous war photographers of the 20th Century, including Robert Capa, who caught the agony of the assault troops on D-Day, and Larry Burrows, who worked in Vietnam, died in combat, camera in hand. Not to mention the many journalists who have died in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere in the pursuit of news and images.
This is not a suggestion that professionals compromise their integrity by doctoring images, that would be lying in celluloid, but as we are the consumers, we need to applaud the bravery of the Joe Rosenthals of this world for being there in the first place.

Despedida

A despedida durou 3 dias.
Os 3 dias de trabalho depois das férias pelo Natal.



E há melhor maneira de começar, do que dizer Não vás!! Claro que o hospital não fala, mas arranjou maneira de exprimir esse sentimento.
Como?
É fácil.
Doentes e mais doentes. E depois mais ainda.
Tantos doentinhos para te entreteres e tu vais-te embora? Mal agradecido
E para me castigar, foram os senhores e senhoras doentes que se começaram a "despedir"... [ok. foram só dois. e eu não tive culpa. juro]
E assim, de madrugada, terminou o primeiro dia da despedida. Com um cheirinho do resto da minha vida. [de futuro as pernas tremeram menos. espero]

A despedida continuou no dia seguinte (infelizmente foi poucas horas, 3 ou 4, depois.) com festa. Com mais um cheirinho (e gostinho tb) do resto da minha vida. [bem, mais ou menos. os ovos moles fazem crescer a barriga...]

E assim cheguei ao último dia da despedida.
Vim eu e o meu doentinho de estimação embora... Podia ter esperado mais um dia. assim eu não precisava de saber. [houve um outro que se queria levantar para "ir embora", mas este não deixamos]
Tudo acabou com as palavras e os gestos do costume. Que não foram de circunstância (tenho a certeza, e algum orgulho).

Venho com a certeza de ter feito amigos que ficarão. De estar um passinho mais próximo do estado adulto [nada se sustos. um passinho só. pequenino]. De estar menos impreparado para a fase que se avizinha. De ter rido e chorado. De voltar um dia destes.

As saudades, essas ainda aparecerão por ai. Bastantes.
