I am...Alejandro -- thanks so much for your comment. I am thrilled that you will be able to use it as a gift for the people of Puerto Natales! If you send me the translation, I would post it on The Hankster for our Spanish-speaking readers. I have told JB that we should make Fingere a "cult film" here in NYC! (And I'm glad to hear the root of the word 'fingere' -- that makes much more sense!!!)<br /><br />Let's stay in touch. Keep up the great filmmaking!<br />-NancyNancy Hankshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17428253702914703243noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26340222.post-29705901924794263732011-05-09T23:35:28.381-04:002011-05-09T23:35:28.381-04:00Dear Nancy,
Thank you very much for your magnifice...Dear Nancy,<br />Thank you very much for your magnificent text. I'm going to translate it for the people of Puerto Natales. This is going to be the best present for them: in a couple of weeks they are going to celebrate 100 years since the foundation of town!!<br />We forgive the "google translation machine"; "fingere" is a Latin word that means "to feign, to pretend"; from 'fingere' also derives the word 'fictio' which translate as 'fiction'.<br />For your loyal readers I want to mention that we already downloaded this movie in Youtube under the name ferrer11.<br />The actors are friends of mine, or relatives –yes, my kids and my daughter in law (Peggy Sue)-; the other actors are taxi-cub drivers, teachers, workers, farmers, the Mayor of the town, peasants, cowboys, shepherds, etc., all of them "aficionados" (like myself). <br />We spend almost no money at all; everyone worked for the love of acting in this adventure. The only professionals were the editor and the camerawoman that study moviemaking in Cuba and Chile, and they also did it for the love of helping us.<br />Thank you again, Nancy: your words means a lot to us. <br />Alejandro Ferrer (milodon50@hotmail.com)Alejandro Ferrerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05038217004050255833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26340222.post-50410945153944728632011-05-09T22:16:26.312-04:002011-05-09T22:16:26.312-04:00Alejandro FerrerAlejandro FerrerAlejandro Ferrerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05038217004050255833noreply@blogger.com
