creciendo el estilo de los años 80

Growing up 80’s style was one of the most memorable times in my life. The 80’s era was a time of innovation, excitement, and endless possibilities that created a unique way of life. From music to fashion, the 80’s brought a fresh and innovative perspective that influenced modern culture in numerous ways. For me, the 80’s was a time when things were simpler, and we lived in the moment without being consumed by technology.

As I sit here listening to the iconic 80’s hit “Boys of Summer” by Don Henley on Sirius-XM’s 80’s channel, I can’t help but reminisce about the good old days. The 1980s may have started out with a whisper, but it definitely ended with a bang. This was an era that birthed a lot of iconic things that managed to stay relevant to this day. The ever-popular mixtapes, Pac-Man, Walkman, and the classic movie “The Breakfast Club” are just a few examples of iconic things that emerged from this era.

The 80’s fashion trends were equally inventive, characterized by bright neon colors, leg warmers, shoulder pads, big hairdos, and parachute pants. A decade which also placed a significant emphasis on body fitness, with Jane Fonda’s aerobics, was seen as the route to achieving a sound mind and body.

In conclusion, the 80’s generation brought something unique to the table; a unique style of life that we will never forget. As we take a trip down memory lane, it is clear to see that this era was an epic time that created a generation that was arguably one of the most influential of any past. Let us celebrate and cherish the beautiful memories of growing up 80’s style.… Read More creciendo el estilo de los años 80

Re-Watch and Review: ‘Radius’ – The Heart-Pounding Journey of Liam and Jane in Search of the Truth

The relationship between Liam and Jane is a critical element of the movie. The two leads complement each other seamlessly, with Diego Klattenhoff’s reserved yet determined portrayal of Liam meshing perfectly with Charlotte Sullivan’s tough and resourceful take on Jane. As they delve deeper into the mystery surrounding the accident, their connection evolves, and the emotional stakes rise. The chemistry between the two actors is palpable, and it adds a layer of complexity to the story that keeps the audience invested.

From a technical aspect, “Radius” is impressive. The visual effects are top-notch, and the movie’s cinematography makes excellent use of the eerie and abandoned locations. The pacing is spot-on, gradually unveiling the mysteries while simultaneously building the tension. The music score is subtle but impactful, adding to the atmosphere and emphasizing the emotional beats.

All of these elements combined make “Radius” a well-crafted sci-fi thriller that’s worth more attention than it initially received. It’s a testament to the power of indie filmmaking and the potential for exciting and fresh takes on genres that have been done to death. If you’re a fan of sci-fi, mysteries, and suspense, “Radius” should be on your watchlist.… Read More Re-Watch and Review: ‘Radius’ – The Heart-Pounding Journey of Liam and Jane in Search of the Truth
