It Happens Every Spring is a 1949 film, directed by Lloyd Bacon, with Ray Milland. I've chosen it because of the tittle. It turns out that the tittles I chose initially, River of No Return (Otto Preminger) and Wild River (Elia Kazan), were already taken.
Anyway, It Happens Every Spring impressed me immediately. As a metaphor, it's inspiring. And the movie, the description in the catalog, has to do with baseball, a game I don’t understand but that I find very elegant.
But is this blog about movies?
It's about life, love, friendship, dreams.
It’s about power, war, destruction, survival.
It’s about freedom, hope, a second chance.
It's about thoughts and feelings and what I've learned from all those movies, especially the old movies, my favorites.
I hope you'll find the same magic that I found, the same joy. Cinema is a very special way of telling stories.
And I also hope you won't find many errors here. But if so, would you be kind enough to let me know? Until now, I’ve only written in portuguese and it’s a completely different structure. Sometimes I misplace words and concepts. You see... I must think in english first and then express those ideas in writing. I tried to translate what I had already written in portuguese, and even used some translation tools, but the result was not what I really expected.
