Maturing in Skins

Cuando Bryan Elsley y su hijo Jamie Brittain decidieron escribir una serie sobre las vicisitudes de la juventud británica tenían claro que ésta debía ser completamente fiel a la realidad. Empezando por la edad de los actores, que debían tener los mismos años que los personajes que iban a interpretar. Y siguiendo por contar en las tramas cómo viven y qué hacen para divertirse los chavales en sus dos últimos años de instituto.Madurando en Skins

And so they did: they found several 16 -year -old jewels who perfectly conveyed what would be their life without the orders of a script (although I do not know if they drugged so much in their daily life) and bet on plots that, even being something being somethingExaggerated, they went through an approximate portrait of the life of an important nucleus of boys and girls with these characteristics.Only with that, they got Skinstriunfase.

Before talking about the new, I will confess that it has been one of the ones that has put my hair the most.To me, and I suppose that many, Skins has screwed my life in the sense that he suffered with most of his plots.Because these children actors used all their resources, and with them they touched the spectator fiber through tribulations, disappointments or deaths.Not being good, they would not have finished in other series with protagonist roles (Joseph Dempie in Game of Thrones) or making the jump to the cinema (case of Nicholas Hault).

Now, after just over a year and an alleged film that we could qualify as ‘Schrodinger’, since we know that it is filled and at the same time not, it has returned.And he has done it to finally say.The wear symptoms that he already showed in the sixth season, the worst of all, evidenced that he needed an end in which the real essence of the series was recovered.And Brittain and Elsley knew how to see that their creation no longer had a possible solution.Nor with a defibrillator to the maximum power.

Those managers are going to be three of their unforgettable protagonists: Effy (Kaya Scodelario), Cook (Jack O'Connell) and Cassie (Hannah Murray), the first two of the second generation and the last of the first in both).All of them, authentic monsters of the interpretation that barely exceed twenty, recover their roles defemme fatale maquiavel, loyal, drunk and violent, and insecure and sick, respectively, respectively.But in a very different way: they have grown up.They have matured.And the bottom of his person keeps him, but what others see.

In the first chapter of this seventh install.Effy has already left behind his time of the institute and now works at aheadge Fund.An environment that could not be better adjusted to what she is, since living to the limit and enjoying it is what she likes most.Before he did it in trouble and abusing alcohol and drugs.Now enjoy risk capital accounts in which you can win a million or lose everything in a single minute.But partying continues every morning, that this girl has an endurance that Miguel Ángel Rodríguez already wanted.And of course, it also continues to seduce men who do not suit him.Although it seems that he already escaped with respect to the children of the institute.

Este inicio del adiós definitivo de la serie de E4 también cuenta con Naomi (Lily Loveless), la hipocondríaca lesbiana que, sin saber qué hacer con su vida tras pasarse los días fumando y bebiendo, opta por explotar talentos que no tiene. Y en el próximo capítulo aparecerá Emily (Kathryn Prescott), una de las gemelas de la segunda generación y que no sabemos muy bien qué estará haciendo.Madurando en Skins

We have to see what has been in these years of Cassie, and especially Cook, which the last time we saw was pounced against someone screaming his famous “I’m Cook!”.Because this boy who only cares about sex, alcohol and fights was one of the notable television discoveries for everything he expressed with a simple grimace.He was the typical character to whom he hates himself and wants himself equally, since on the one hand he bursts that it is an integral asshole, and on the other he tends you with his insecurity and loyalty that he professes to his friends (although before they can fuck them).

From Cassie (yes, she is Samwell's friend Enjame de Tronos).And that in most occasions that allowed it, I played.The only thing that is clear is that the three cannot be those students we saw long ago.Maturity comes in one way or another.And Elsley and Brittain have already shown that they know perfectly how to adapt a script to the age and routine of its protagonists.

Skins is fun.And also a very serious drama.But not all fictions what are you crying and cursing everything you can think of after finishing a chapter.That is what happened to me, especially in the fourth season.And you don't know how I'm glad they return to amend the excesses of last year's last chapters.Even if they have taken.

By the way, do not stop listening to your soundtrack.It is insurmountable.

Bonus: There is already an actor to play Oberyn Martell, Dorne's red viper, at game of thrones.Is called Pedro Pascal.What do you think?
