Cine: Running With Scissors (2006)
No esperes mucha cordura de ninguno de los personajes que aquí verás. El filme (conocido en Latinoamérica como “Recortes de mi vida”), cortesía de Ryan Murphy (creador de la galardonadísima serie “Glee” y otros sucesos televisivos como “American Horror Story”, “Pose” y “Scream Queens”), está basado en las memorias de Augusten Burroughs, un muchacho que ha tenido una infancia peculiar, por no decir desquiciada.
El primer recuerdo, proveniente de 1972, lo muestra escuchando el extenso poema de su madre Deirdre (Annete Benning), una literata con más ínfulas que éxito. El pequeño de seis años (interpretado por Jack Kaeding) nunca ha pisado la escuela y su vida se reduce a su apasionada relación con su madre. Seis años más tarde entra en escena el Dr. Finch (Brian Cox), un psiquiatra que comienza atendiendo a Deirdre de su ansiedad apremiante y acaba iniciándola en una adicción a los psicofármacos, recomendándole el divorcio de su marido alcohólico Norman (Alec Baldwin) e instándole a permitir que Augusten (ahora interpretado por Joseph Cross) viva con su familia por un tiempo.
A poco de pisar la casa, cuya suciedad extrema la convertiría en una pesadilla para cualquier afectado por TOC, el muchacho ya sabe que Finch es un peligro para la salud mental de todo aquel que lo conozca (sea paciente o no) y que, en comparación, los Addams parecen normales. Todo el mundo allí parece desquiciado: su esposa Agnes (Jill Clayburgh), siempre deprimida y consumidora de alimento balanceado para perros; su aparentemente cuerda hija mayor Hope (Gwyneth Palthrow) y su otra hija, aún apegada al desquicio en el que vive, Natalie (Evan Rachel Wood). Y aún hay alguien más que no aparece en escena: Neil Bookman (Joseph Fiennes), otro hijo, adoptivo y rechazado, de Finch y que se convertirá en la primera pareja de Augusten. Aspecto más que polémico, puesto que Neil es adulto y el muchacho, recordemos, aún no ha cumplido los quince años.
El reparto, abundante en figuras hoy estelares, incluye a Kristin Chenoweth (Fern, amante de Deirdre), Gabrielle Union (Dorothy, otra amante de la madre de Augusten), Patrick Wilson (Michael Shepard, agente del fisco) y Coleen Camp (Joan, miembro del taller de poesía).

“The secret to being a writer is that you have to write. It’s not enough to think about writing or to study literature or plan a future life as an author. You really have to lock yourself away, alone, and get to work.” — Augusten Burroughs

Just finished this wonderful book - the one that jumped from the shelf into my hands when I was in the library for five minutes a few weeks ago. And then I discovered the author was interviewed on one of my favorite podcasts @witchwavepod and then my husband randomly shared an @augustenburroughs quote with me. Because, of course, he did. Highly recommended, witches! #fledgewitch #witchling #witch #witchesofinstagram #witchybooks #books #bibliophile #toilandtrouble #augustenburroughs https://www.instagram.com/p/B783lQcj2R1/?igshid=1i9v6zqsf3su2

Augusten Burroughs | St. Martin’s Press
Another Augusten Burroughs memoir? What direction could he possibly go this time? Is there anything else to add to his life that he has not already shared in his past memoirs? Yes. Yes there is.

I just finished reading @augustenburroughs’s latest memoir #ToilAndTrouble which I found surprisingly delightful from start to finish ✨ When #AugustenBurroughs first revealed earlier this year that his new book would focus on his life as a #witch (a complete revelation), I immediately pre-ordered #ToilAndTroubleBook and counted down the days to its release. This was a book that I wanted to make last, savor, so it read it a few chapters at a time over the past couple of weeks. This new memoir is classic hilarious #Burroughs but the stories about the #witchcraft in his life are so illuminating and very, very welcome. This book is a wonderful reminder that witches are, indeed, everywhere ✨ (at Toluca Lake, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/B38PH1Ohel7/?igshid=1nl9uqd4tk8ah
