Micky, you can not leave us like this: Reflections after the end of the season of "Luis Miguel La Serie"



[ad_1]

Luis Miguel continues to sing. The final episode of the first season of his biographical series? That ended a few minutes ago but writing these lines makes me impossible in silence. So, here I am, make the unexpected: watch old Luis Miguel videos on YouTube, a Sunday night.

13 weeks ago, Luis Miguel and I were not friends. It is true that this is part of the soundtrack of my life over the past 30 years (as well as for millions of Latin Americans) but nothing but casual and unintentional listening. I boasted that I had never bought a cassette of Romances and at school I made fun of my partner Iris Catalina to line up her notebooks with Luismi's cuts (mine was adorned with # 39; Iron Maiden).

And here I am, still today, equating that I know by heart the words of Honorary Word, The Unconditional and Cold as the Wind . Always.

The closing of Luis Miguel The Serie m left the heart in the mouth and sustained breathing. And it was a privilege reserved for Game of Thrones

Now you will find many spoilers on the first season of the series on the Mexican divo and, in particular, on the chapter 13, You can not leave me like that, made available by Netflix in Costa Rica on Sunday evening July 16, 2018. If you have not seen the result yet, stop reading or at your own risk, continue. Constellation.

You can not leave me like this is a role play in a cruel joke for the final episode, because the big question that has drawn the audience throughout the series -the location Marcela's mother, Luis Miguel's mother – has not been solved. However, the series clarifies something that many have guessed: the singer got to know what happened to his mother.

The revelation was spectacular, and arrived at the last breath of the chapter. But recap: the plot brings us back to the scene with which the series began, with Luis Miguel ready to give a concert in Paraguay, in 1992. There, the artist discovers that his father is dying in Madrid and now we understand what we do not know to interpret 13 weeks ago: Micky must see Luisito Rey again, because only his father can clarify what happened to his mother.

The chapter has other secondary problems but they are secondary (and we will talk about it later). What matters is that the father and the son have a last meeting, the parent giving his last breaths in a hospital bed, afflicted with an illness of "bad reputation" unrevealed but which could imply AIDS (we all gave for sitting that cancer was more than deserved). Micky is beside his dying father not to offer relief or forgiveness, but to ask him, for the last time, what happened to Marcela. "Marcela … is gone," said the moribund.

The scene is of enormous force. It is inevitable to feel the urgency as time goes on, that Luisito's next breath will be the last and that Micky will forever embrace doubt. But Luis, bastard, answers in his own way.

Micky: Why do you refuse me something that I know you know? Do you know the harm that it does to me?

Luisito: You already know where he is.

Luisito Rey left the world at will, bastard until the end, responding to the son on his own terms. Micky leaves the room and, uncontrolled, gives us all the voices: "It's a son of a bitch". For the series there is perhaps a minute left and we think we should go to bed brooding the mystery, but the good by Hugo Lopez, the director who was more dad than Luisito, jumps to the rescue: he gives Luis Miguel a envelope shakes with the Mossad report, in which the truth about Marcela's whereabouts is revealed. Luis Miguel bursts into tears and does not open the envelope. We go to Black End.

Fuck the time I spent these unhappy Sunday nights.

Officially, since 1986, Mrs. Marcela Basteri has disappeared. Luis Miguel The series did not answer his mystery, but she cast a black light on what could have happened to her: the mother travels from Italy to Spain, hoping to meet his eldest son in Madrid. However, arriving at the house in Las Matas, he meets only Luisito Rey, who needs a signature from him to formalize Luis Miguel's contract with the WEA label. Marcela enters the house with her little son Sergio in his arms, Luis closes the door with a key. This is the last time we see it.

Did Luisito Rey kill his wife in Madrid? The series led us, through Micky's research, to this conclusion. Hugo tells Luis Miguel that Israeli intelligence has found Marcela, without going into the details of whether she is alive or dead. The answer is inside the blessed envelope of yellow shackle.

While Telemundo and Netflix have not made any official announcement, it is certain that the series will have a second season, presumably in 2019. That will be until then, we hope, that the case of Marcela will be revealed completely.

Luisito Rey: the goodbye of a great

Infamous, without a doubt. And charismatic, even more. Played with mastery by the Spanish actor Oscar Jaenada, Luisito Rey was the villain we love to hate and by far the most interesting and memorable character of this first season, to the point of monopolizing the conversation on the series, although above the protagonist.

The above, far from being an accident, is a highly calculated success. Remember that this series is the official version of Luis Miguel about his life, and the hermetic performer managed to turn the questions that have traditionally turned around him to his late father: there is no point in hating Luis Miguel's bad father, who emotionally couples him and who has financial problems when it is more satisfying to hate his father.

Luis Miguel tells us in the series that he is a product of his situation. And we believe it. Luisito exploited him, took him to his mother, drugged him, threw him into an early sexual activity, humiliated him, cheated her. … and made him a very important musical idol in Latin America. It is easy to lose sight of the fact that, for better or for worse, without Luisito Rey there would not have been Luis Miguel.

The series will continue without Luisito. The challenge is huge but not impossible: the audience is already captive and it is possible that the father continues to appear in future chapters by flashbacks . Yet what has been done in this first season is enough to place him as one of the most exquisite villains of recent television.

Luis Miguel The series is not the first series that deals with the life of a star of Spanish music. Still valid, we have the memories of the series on Juan Gabriel, Celia Cruz, Jenny Rivera, Paquita del Barrio (Teletica big move to the first today, just a day after the end of Micky), and also available on Netflix José José So, why are we talking so much about Luismi?

Although the series was released under the banner of Telemundo and Netlix, it is actually an American creation of the MGM television division, with executive production of Mark Burnett, the most fleshy producers in the world and to whom planetary successes such as Survivor, The Voice, Shark Tank and the release of Donald Trump to fame through The Apprentice (no one is perfect).

Another differentiating factor is that his raw material is a reserved artist as little, shrouded in a permanent aura of mystery and whose intimacy is largely ignored. For some reason, Luis Miguel allowed writers to work with unknown aspects of his personal life and this seems to be a window on a little explored place.

None of the revelations made in the series can be considered as an absolute truth, because in the end, what is imposed is the version of Luis Miguel, besides many elements have been dramatized or invented according to the narrative . Even so, the public will give real facts a lot of what is shown by the series.

1. Hugo Lopez is a guy, the kind of protective and paternal figure that every genius needs. The closing season occurs in 1992, when Argentinian businessman's health declines, affected by cancer. López died of this disease in 1993, so it is foreseeable that his character will not have a meaningful participation in future chapters to come.

2. The series finally tackled a subject that Luis Miguel has traditionally been short: his daughter Michelle Salas. Product of an ephemeral relationship with the singer Stephanie Salas, the existence of the girl is dealt with extensively in the last chapter, where it is revealed that the idol ignored for at least three years the l 39; existence of his daughter, not sure that He was the father.

3. Issabela Camil (Erika in the series) had not released any promises on the depth of the relationship she had had with Luis Miguel. According to the series, it is now established that she was the one who put pressure on the singer to assume the paternity of Michelle, who pushed her to be honest in the controversy over her nationality, and l? accompanied with his brother Alex at the Madrid Hospital. at the time of Luisito Rey's death. Great contribution.

4. From what we know of Luis Miguel's real life, the following can be expected in view of the second possible season: the relationship with Erika will eventually end, and he should tackle the novels media that Mexico has entertained during the 1990s with the stars of shows, such as television chiefs Daisy Fuentes and Myrka Dellanos, actress Sofía Vergara and diva Mariah Carey.

5. The season is over with Diego Boneta perfectly camouflaged with Luis Miguel. His interpretation has come increasingly throughout the 13 episodes and his interpretive work remains with a high rating. If his profile was already noticeable in Hollywood, there is no doubt that his actions will turn even more against future projects.

Luis Miguel, the man, gave his blessing to Luis Miguel La Serie . Everything that is said has its approval, whether it is reality or fiction. Even so, the artist has not had any public protests on the content of the program since its inception and it is unlikely that he will break his years of silence for the press, just as much that we expect interviewers to now point out the revelations of the series.

In his social networks, the divo completely ignored the production of Telemundo and Netflix, and all his publications are related to his current tour. The closest thing to a snap to the series came on May 30, when on the artist's Instagram, Facebook and Twitter appeared a photo of the score of Guilty or not the subject that a few weeks ago before it was vital in the plot of the fourth episode and whose popularity has soared since then.

While the present tour has for excuse the promotion of the most recent ranchera record of the performer, it is to be expected that the audience the future concerts of the Mexican with a special interest in the 39 listen to sing his successes from three decades ago, those who came out before the records Romances and who gave shape to the soundtrack of the series.

The same day the World Cup final was played, the background story was different. That night, the bars in dozens of cities (San Jose among them) were organized in poyectar, on a giant screen, the last chapter of the series on Luis Miguel. In the days of Netflix and streaming this seems absurd and it always happened.

Netflix today experienced something new, something that was the privilege of a very few giants of regular television: a final season seen, in unison, by millions of viewers in perfect sync. That's how life was before, at the time of Who shot Jr? of Dallas or the massacre of marriage in dynasty . Then came the giant of streaming to change everything and give us all the seasons at the same time, and even though we were excited by the closures of House of Cards and Orange is the New Black when we saw them, they were alone, nowadays.

The Netflix series is rarely used as a topic of conversation for more than two weeks. If we do not care about The Crown just at its premiere we missed the moment and in a month nobody will want to hear us comment on the last episode of Stranger Things that d & # 39; others have seen the same weekend premiere. But with Luis Miguel circumstances forced us to take a break, to moderate consumption and weekly doses … and what good it did us.

This is not the first series on Netflix that opens on the basis of one chapter a week (it went through Better Call Saul and Designated Survivor ) but it was the first one we care about that The cycle of waiting at 8 p. m. Sunday to give "play", then run on social networks to see the best memes and the next day discover the press of Roberto Palazuelos desmetidas and theories about Marcela. It will hardly happen anymore this year due to a series of Netflix. Well done, pisha

Epilogue: At 3 a. m. Monday I hear Luis Miguel again. This relationship, which has started so badly, is becoming more and more endearing. Well Hugo said: in the end what we have left are the people who love us.
