¡Qué viva Bridget!
Compartir

Corro el riesgo de abrir este espacio con el cliché de las chick flicks. Pero es que Bridget Jones lo vale. Ella es la gran heroína de nuestra generación porque es todo lo que no queremos ser y tiene todo lo que todas tenemos o soñamos.

La fórmula de su éxito, aunque parece obvia, pocos habían atrevido a explorarla tan bien. Tener en la pantalla a una protagonista gorda, torpe y urgida de amor y sexo fue una apuesta arriesgada que contrastó con el mar de protagonistas de comedias románticas llenas de conflictos personales, tiernas, inocentes y puras con cero grasa y celulitis en su cuerpo. Claro, el valiente que dijo, “pues no, las viejas normales no son así”, asumió un riesgo, y sí que la sacó del estadio.

Es que todas somos bridgets, aunque cueste aceptarlo. Somos torpes e imprudentes, en mayor o menor escala; tenemos familias disfuncionales y amigos desocupados que se pasan los días dándonos consejos extraños. También soñamos con un hombrecito delicioso, exitoso, fiel y tierno, aunque preferimos comernos a los fantoches churrísimos que pasan sus días de falda en falda. Todas somos Bridget.

Estas películas, basadas en un libro que se vendió muy bien, están repletas de escenas hilarantes y están llenas de frases y situaciones célebres. ¿Quién no ha dicho en algún momento de su vida, “resolución número uno: perder diez kilos. Número dos: encontrar a un novio lindo y sensible y dejar la fijación romántica por alcohólicos, adictos al trabajo, megalomaniacos, castrados emocionales y pervertidos”? Yo, por lo menos, he querido esto unas cien veces, y suelen ser las uvas número dos y tres que me he comido en los últimos diez 31 de diciembre (el deseo de la número uno me lo reservo).

Lo mejor es su final. A pesar de sus defectos y estupideces, Bridget se queda con un Mark Darcy. Si ella puede yo también. ¿No es un gran mensaje que nos llena de optimismo y felicidad?

Gracias a Internet Movie Database les tenemos algunas de sus frases célebres. Y, gracias a YouTube, la primera película casi completa.

Bienvenidos todos a nuestro Rincón Chick Flick.

    Sorry for the huge review, but I’m really loving the new Zune, and hope this, as well as the excellent reviews some other people have written, will help you decide if it’s the right choice for you.

    The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
