" ... Gálvez: I would argue that we have to distinguish between Redzepi and Olvera. Redzepi has an almost conquistador mentality of discovery in which he is finding, celebrating and then “salvaging” what he frames as unknown or under-appreciated ingredients. His global notoriety does enable him to raise the prestige and social status of traditional Mexican foods, but not in a way that is likely to influence Mexicans or Mexico’s policies. Instead, he extracts value--- selling tickets on the internet for his pop up in Tulum and hiring a relatively small number of people locally for a very short period of time. Where did that $750 per person go? Did it go through the cloud to a Danish bank? Some of it was redistributed to the local workers and food producers who staffed and supplied the pop-up, but probably not most of it. ... "
" ... The Fountain represents no real change in message, though a definite change in tone. Pi's bleak and grainy mood gives way to kaleidoscopic beauty. But in the end, the message is the same. Hugh Jackman plays one man in three different time frames half a millennium apart, or is it three men, or one man and two imaginary flights of fancy? We never quite get a clear resolution to the narrative ambiguities. But we are left with little ambiguity about Aronofsky's rejection of the Biblical view of the world. Tomas (played by Hugh Jackman), the conquistador who believes the Torah account of the Tree of Life, seeks to save his queen (played by Weiss) from the evil Inquisition by searching for said tree. He must slash his way through Mayan guards to find it (okay, Inquisition bad? Check. Christianity and imperialism linked? Check. Mistreatment of native meso-Americans? Check). Later, Tom (also Jackman), the 20th century scientist engages in an obsessive (one cannot write about Aronofsky without that word, I dare you) attempt to save his wife (also Weiss). Both Tomas and Tom fail, and even worse they fail to spend meaningful time with the dying queen/wife who repeatedly urges him to simply accept death, live in the moment and then bury her beneath a tree where her body can decay and be reincorporated back into the universe and its great cycle of life. 500 years later, Tommy the astronaut tries to resurrect his dead wife (Jackman/Weiss again) in a dying star. Eventually he comes to accept things as they are, assumes the Lotus position and enlightenment is achieved. Message received: Christianity is the religion of the crusaders. It shows up in modern times as the scientific quest to create pharmaceutical remedies for disease, and finally our hero leaves all of this behind, renounces both and all desire and becomes a Buddhist of a sort. No God will save us, we must simply accept the inevitable triumph of time and entropy and find escape in a godless mysticism. ... "
" ... The legend says that vanilla was introduced to Europe by Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés, who had seen the Aztec Emperor Montezuma drink his xocolatl (sort of a chocolate drink) with a bit of vanilla. The Mesoamerican flavoring gained massively in popularity in the 19th century, when botanists found a way to hand-pollinate it, which allowed for it to be grown around the world. ... "
