Photo and text by Natalie Curtis

"You’ll need the code. An evidence of existence. To enable your arrival, and your departure (though the leaving is not so easy, the way the time moves, slowing and sticking). But more than that, for when it’s all gone, and some of it already is. Because even if you wanted this place to last forever, and you don’t, the cities mutate around us and nothing stays the same."

Wrong again....

The two original doors from the early 40`s (?)....and the absurdity of our days in the middle.

20Th Century Women, a very good film by Mike Mills

“You get to see him out in the world as a person. I never will.”....so many details and nuances one can discover when seeing a film several times. 

Gare Marítima de Alcântara....

Lisboa, 1943, by Porfirio Pardal Monteiro

A Better New Year....

The wife....

Behind every successful man....there's a woman. The story in different shapes and time, it is often repeated, but never really ends. The director Björn Runge got a late ticket to another level and Glenn Close will finally collect her Oscar ?

Roma....

At the end of the day....it is always women who keep this world from falling apart. Cleo appears like a reincarnation of God, a self-denying human being with a heart of infinite dimensions. A piece of beautiful black & white film by Alfonso Cuarón (with superb sound work).

Watching this beauty on small screen is definitely to be avoided.

Happy Christmas....

This photo of a Portuguese immigrant child is so much more than that moment....it is a child with curiosity and dreams that the future could be different. Everything is written on her face. A truly beautiful picture.

Canal....

The brutalized 60`s and 70`s....
