Looks too artsy for my tastes. I wish someone adapts picrel one day, I don't know if this book was translated to english but it's basically Magellan + Apocalypto. It's fucking rad to beginning to end and it shows how insane you had to be to go on that journey.

One of many people to cuck Natalie Portman, around the time Moby fucked her.

>>216012400
Oh boy can't wait for another shit product where the Spanish/Portugese are evil oppressors murdering le heckin' innocent natives who only did peaceful things like cutting their victims' hearts out and throwing them down hundreds of steps before flaying them and using their skin for other rituals

The film does not completely whitewash the natives and may upset some people as a result. But europeans were undeniably exploitative there ... all humams are when given the chance

>The film does not completely whitewash the natives
Meaning that to an extent it does whitewash them. How predictable
>But europeans were undeniably exploitative there
There is literally no good documentation that the Spaniards "exploited" the natives. It all comes from a few books which are well known for being extremely exaggerated for political reasons, most notably those by Bartolomé de las Casas who is a well-known liar who made up literally every single part of his books in order to gain power in the New World by claiming that the Spaniards were abusing the natives
Same thing the later "liberators" did, except those did it to sell the New World to England in exchange for riches beyond compare, as well as because they loathed the natives (most of them were castizos who had serious superiority complexes and hated the crown accepting mestizos as equals)
>>
>>216012800
Gael Garcia Bernal is clearly a mestizo
>>
>>216012813
it's not really confirmed if he was born in northern portugal or spain
ele fez a viagem sob a bandeira espanhola e nem sequer acabou a viagem

you don't know shit, spanish are the worst at learning other languages
>>
>>216012400
Will they be eating their own boot straps and belt buckles to not starve like they did in real life?

Lol the director (Lav Diaz) is usually so artsy that /film/ is now saying he sold out with this film. So, this is him at his most mainstream
