Don't miss a single one

PalmI will recover the story of one of the most fascinating musicians of the 90s, who died at 30 years old after releasing a work that today has become a classic. I am referring to Jeff Buckley and his album Grace, which includes immortal songs like ‘Lover, you should’ve come over’. The documentary Jamás habrá un final, Jeff Buckley recovers unpublished images and has testimonies from the singer's most intimate circle to reconstruct his career, both personal and musical. From April 8th on Filmin.

I will read Génie la loca, a novel centered on the unconditional love of a girl, named Marie, for her mother, known as ‘Génie, la loca’ for, among other things, having given birth to a bastard. Published by Quid Pro Quo Ediciones, this work by the French Inès Cagnati, which was awarded the Prix Deux Magots, has been translated into Catalan by Marfany Simó.

I will look for a good seat at the Principal de Inca to see Ernesto Alterio as the protagonist of Viejos tiempos, a play from 1971 by playwright Harold Pinter, Nobel Prize in literature. Saturday, April 11th, at 7 p.m.

I will congratulate the members of Iguana Teatre on their 40 years on stage. To celebrate, they are reviving one of their great hits from the 90s, the interludes of Sa Varietat en sa Locura. Friday, April 10th, at 8 p.m. and Saturday 11th, at 6 p.m.

I will take the opportunity to see one of Quentin Tarantino's masterpieces on the big screen again – although he has never made a film as perfect as his opera prima, Reservoir dogs. More than 20 years after the premiere of the first part of Kill Bill, a version is released that combines both films into a single session, as Tarantino had conceived it, and includes a new sequence. From Friday, April 10th, in Aficine and CineCiutat theaters.

I will be at Rata Corner to enjoy the presentation of the Ciutat de Palma novel prize 2025, the work Cavalcarem la ciutat amb cavalls de ferro (Pagès Editors) by journalist and writer Jaume Oliver, also author of Crònica desordenada de Ciutat Antiga. “I wanted to imagine Mallorca where Captain Bayo landed and succeeded,” is the summary that Oliver shared in ARA Balears about the novel, an alternate history where the Republicans win the Civil War. Thursday, April 9th, at 7 p.m.

I will give an opportunity to The Testaments, the series that continues the universe of The Handmaid's Tale, based on the book Margaret Atwood published in 2019. We'll see if this new adaptation manages to recapture the unsettling spirit of the original's first seasons, starring a sensational Elisabeth Moss, which, however, over time lost all interest – as happens with the vast majority of series released today. From Thursday, April 9, on Disney+.

I will go to the cinema to see The Good Daughter, the feature film adaptation of a short directed by Júlia de Paz centered on the relationship of three women, grandmother, mother, and daughter, with a visual artist who is idolized by his daughter and questioned by the other two. From Friday, April 10, at CineCiutat.

I will go back 20 years to reconnect with one of the series of my adolescence, Malcolm in the Middle. As happened with Friends and Dawson's Creek, the unstoppable power of nostalgia has brought together the actors of that dysfunctional yet endearing family headed by Bryan Cranston. The four episodes of Malcolm: como el perro y el gato will arrive on April 10 on Disney+.

I will have the luxury of listening to the always brilliant José Sacristán, who on this occasion adapts the memoirs of Fernando Fernán Gómez in The Comedian's Son. Friday, April 10, at 9 p.m. and Saturday 11 and Sunday 12, at 6 p.m., at l’Auditòrium.
