Napsal už někdo detektivní příběh ve kterém se vraždí podle Kytice nebo to budu klasicky muset oddřít já?

Tak jsem opět zhlédla film Kytice (2000)

Postřeh č. 1: Už je to méně traumatizující, než když jsem to viděla poprvé v kvartě, ale asi to nebyl dobrý nápad dívat se na to před spaním

Postřeh č. 2: Vodník je hot. Jakože hodně. A taky jsem si vzpomněla, jak nám učitelka vykládala o symbolice barev, a že červená a ten červený kus hadru symbolizuje nadcházející tragédii. Víte, kdo je celý kompletně oblečený v červeném? Matka. (Tady by se dalo argumentovat, že vodník až na bederní roušku prakticky není oblečený, ale i tak, matka je ten hlavní záporák).

Postřeh č. 3: Chápu, že borka ve Svatební košili to nemá v hlavě v pořádku, ale děvčico, když ti před oknem levituje a chrčí tvůj milý, tak je to fakt podezřelý, i kdyby měl ksicht Karla Rodena.

Postřeh č. 4: Polednici hraje Bolek Polívka. A Polednice zřejmě potřebuje kurz první pomoci a nějakou terapii (když vlezeš do místnosti, protože ti někdo něco nabízí, a borka omdlí, hned jak tě uvidí).

Postřeh č. 5: Věda pláče. Přidělávání údů pomocí živé vody bych ještě zkousla, ale genetika nefunguje tak, jak si Erben myslí, že funguje. Nebo je ve Zlatém kolovratu nějaké šílené backstory o rozdělených dvojčatech, něco jako Luisa a Lotka.

Postřeh č. 6: Zdrávas Maria není účinná antikoncepce.

Postřeh č. 7: Vždycky za všechno může matka. I když tam není ani zmíněná.

“She’ll come back. She’ll come back and take. That solitude and heat, that’s her. She comes and takes. She takes a child, won’t return it.”

Polednice / The Noonday Witch (2016) dir. by Jiří Sádek.

It isn’t a true christmas without watching an artsy film based on grim ballads from 19th century, based on old folk tales full of murder, dead children and ghosts

So Idk if I am even gonna post this since it's just some pointless shitpost.

If I decide to post this then beware of cringe and terrible skills of expressing my thoughts.

Watching Wednesday and her admiration for Edgar Allen Poe not only brought a lot of memories from my childhood of watching The Addams Family movies but also of one particular author (who also brought a lot of memories from graduation time but we don't talk about that). In my country since we are little we are introduced to one poet. Everyone knows his ballads and I would say most kids grew up with them. They are ballads from poet Karel Jaromír Erben and his work made mine and others' childhood like fr he is so iconic for us. His most famous work is his ballads collection called Kytice (it's mostly known by this title otherwise the whole name is Kytice z pověstí národních - A Bouquet of Folk Legends). I do have some favorite ones and for some reason in two of my fav ones either a baby or a child dies/is killed so Idk what that says about me. For some reason I always loved it and it was like a comfort thing for me Idk.

Can't help but think that maybe Wednesday would enjoy some of them lol.

Anyway live, love, laugh and read Kytice by Karel Jaromír Erben.

Day 30 of Inktober, a Foreign Folklore Character by the name, "Otesanek".

Mostly likely from Czech Folklore.

The story goes behind Otesanek was that an Infertile Couple really wanted a Child so bad but they couldn't. So one day, the Husband finds a Log Stump shaped like a Child as he gives it to his own Wife but surprisingly, when the Wooded-Shaped Baby was now alive, he ordered his Adopted Mother to feed him (the Wife did everything she could to feed her own Adopted Son with some food) but as the Baby kept on growing, he ate both of his Parents which caused him to go on a Glutton rampage, making him even more bigger when he ate his Next Victims (who were also both Humans and Animals). Unfortunately, things don't really last for Otesanek as an Elderly Farmer cuts up his Stomach (after when he was eating her cabbages), causing the Wooden Child's belly to split up as all of his Human victims escape (even his own Parents, who never really wished to have a child again).

Otesanek (c) Karel Jaromír Erben

i might finnish this in the future but i dont rlly wanna anymore lol, i do like the concept though! rambles under cut

so! so. you See. this is all about my boy artyom (ZT001-058) and his dr volkov. i was gonna caption this "my father's love is suffocating me". for you see . dr volkov. he works at the facility, yes? and ohohho, hes not a father in simply a metaphorical way. NO hes his biological loser! the facility doesnt know that dr volkov is artymos dad - after artyom was born it was Immediatly known that he was a mutant. his mom died during childbirth. volkov thoguht "oh god, i lost my beloved, i cant lose my son too..." and basically went "No!!! NOT my fucking kid." n because they werent married. he just. refused to take a dna test. so they didnt have any proof. anyway, being a scientist at the facility, volkov becomes zt's primary caretaker. if the only way to see his son grow is to vivisect him each and every month, then so be it. if he has to electrocute him, tear his teeth out, take out part of his brain, he will do it. he can't lose any more. was also considering captioning this with a verse from polednice (noonday witch) by karel jaromír erben. the one i felt was most fitting was this one:

‘Give that child here!’ ‘Lord, forgive this sinner’s sins, my Saviour dear!’ It’s a wonder she still lives, For see—the Noonday Witch is here!

and i will soooo happily explain why. "Give that child here!" - the facility taking Artyom as soon as he was born due to his mutation, pretty clear "Lord, forgive this sinner's sins, my Saviour dear!" - volkov begging them not to think of him as a mutant so much, the 'sinner' and 'sin' being 'mutant' and 'mutation'. "Lord, forgive this mutant's wrong, my Saviour dear!" its like. this line sticks out to me so much to volkov. "Lord, forgive him, he was born a sinner, he is bound to sin!" its just!!! gah!! he's still calling the facility "saviour" though - they're the only reason he's able to see his son every day, after all. 'Its a wonder she still lives,' - this is an artyom mutation moment! he's a zombie, sorta, his heartbeat sucks so fucking much. his heart is so weak. hes like a zombie in the way that he eepy. its a wonder he hasnt succombed to his mutation yet. 'For see - the noonday witch is here!' - so, the 'she' in the previous line was about the noonday witch, but i dont care lol. this could be the facility again. this i interpret either as temnova, but shes not rlly involved w artyom !! so its like. "Its a wonder (baby Artyom) still lives, for see - the (Facility) is here!" . its a wonder neither the facility or mutation have killed him yet

Anyway. Another thing is how the poem ends. Basically, if you dont want to read it, its about a mother, her baby (its like 1 year old tops) and the noonday witch. the mother is cooking lunch, the baby is wailing. she cannot get it to calm down. the lunch is burning. she pokes her head out the window - 'Come for him, you Noonday Witch, then! Come and take this pest for me!’ - and she comes. when the mother sees her, she goes oh Fuck - either she didnt think she'd rlly come for a baby, or she thought the noonday witch wasnt real. either way, the noonday witch advances torwards the baby. the mother rushes to it and holds it so tight in a protective embrace. she holds it so so tight, as much as she can, desperate not to let the noonday witch take it from her. then, it turns 12:01.

Child clasped to her breast, he found, Lying in a faint, the mother; He could hardly bring her round, But the little one was – smothered.

She suffocated it with her tight embrace. With her love! isnt that so fucking cool?? so awesmoe??? 'my mothers love is suffocating me' it sure is buddy!!!! anyway this is very volkov-artyomcore.. 'oh, because volkov does horrible things to artyom like all the scientists?' i hear you ask. hehe. no! ill let you in on a secret. you see, the thing that ends up killing artyom is neither his mutation nor the facility:)

Exposition Art Blog  Alen Divis

 Alen Divis ( 1900 – 1956) was a Czech painter known for his melancholic art. Having spent much of his life abroad, often working in solitude, he remained rather unknown during his life but has had a postmortem revival in the art world. In 1947, after the end of the Second War and the liberation of Czechoslovakia, Diviš returned to his native country, more than two decades after he had first left for Paris. Upon his return, he achieved a brief period of success. His written memoirs of Santé were published in a weekly paper, and in February 1948, his recent work was exhibited in Prague. The same month, however, brought the Communist coup d'état which would marginalize artists of his type out of work. He spent the rest of the decade producing illustrations for Karel Jaromír Erben's mid-19th century collection of ballads "He became a sort of mythological figure in Czech modern art. He was known as an artist that was forgotten and then sort of miraculously rediscovered. He was someone who was very secretive, whose art was very dark. He was more a figure coming from a romantic literature than from life..."

Nevesely truchlivy

jsou ty vodní kraje,

kde si v trávě pod leknínem

rybka s rybkou hraje.

Tu slunéčko nezahřívá,

větřík nezavěje:

chladno, ticho -

jako žel v srdci bez naděje.
