I, Tonya (2017)
Interesting
Tonya Harding's life wasn't easy, but she still managed to become a champion. And then? What really happened in early 1994?
Everyone remembers Harding for the attack on her rival, Nancy Kerrigan, but before that episode Tonya had achieved important results.
The film is based on the direct testimony of the skater and some people who know her, narrating both her difficulties and successes, and trying to bring out the personality of the protagonist, beautifully played by Margot Robbie.
A story that could be that of many aspiring champions, were it not that at a certain point sport gives way to the news. What did Tonya know? How involved was she? Difficult questions that are difficult to answer.
Yuzuru Hanyu Ice Story GIFT at Tokyo Dome (2023)
Overwhelming
The most amazing show I've ever seen. In GIFT skating, music, dance, plays of light and storytelling, all of the highest level, are combined to create a whole that is much more than the sum of the individual parts, and which is unprecedented in history. The emotional impact is very strong, both for the beauty of the whole and for its depth, because the story told is at the same time the story of the protagonist and that of each of the spectators. GIFT is a new form of art, capable of taking your breath away and which deserves to be relived over and over again, to better appreciate the perfection with which every detail has been taken care of and to relive an emotional journey that digs deep in the human soul crossing joy and pain, to finally arrive at that light to which we all aspire.
