Crítica de Talk to Me de Adolfo

A change is gonna come.

Adolfo

18.03.2008Recomendación cinematográfica que no debéis perderos: Talk to me.

Dirigida por Kasi Lemmons, el filme narra la historia de Petey Greene Jr, ex convicto metido a locutor de música Soul que gozó de gran popularidad en Estados Unidos en los 60. Destaca sobre todo Don Cheadle en el papel de Greene.

Uno de los momentos cumbre de la película es cuando suena uno de los grandes temas de Mr. Soul, Sam Cooke, A Change is gonna come, respuesta a Blowin..in the wind de Bob Dylan. Cooke al escuchar el tema de Dylan pensó: ¿cómo es posible que un hermano no pueda escribir nada como esto?

I was born by the river in a little tent

Oh and just like the river I’ve been running ever since

It’s been a long, a long time coming

But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

It’s been too hard living but I’m afraid to die

Cause I don’t know what’s up there beyond the sky

It’s been a long, a long time coming

But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

I go to the movie and I go downtown

somebody keep telling me don’t hang around

It’s been a long, a long time coming

[A Change Is Gonna Come lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Then I go to my brother

And I say brother help me please

But he winds up knocking me

Back down on my knees

Ohhhhhhhhh.....

There been times that I thought I couldn’t last for long

But now I think I’m able to carry on

It’s been a long, a long time coming

But I know a change gonna come, oh yes it will

Lo mejor:
Don Cheadle, la Música,...
