I found the Celine Dion thread. Didn't know there was one. Anyway, I posted the clip over there as well. It's from the 1999 Oscars. Her outfit is horrible (the back of it), imo, but the hat is great and she wears it well.
Well this paradox applies to anyone who likes scary movies.)))) If you keep doing it, then there must be some positive side to it. I mean, it's unrealistic torment, and such a "fear game". Maybe it's soothing in the long run....Beautiful analysis! It echoes my thoughts quite accurately. And just like you, I found that major twist hard to digest. In fact, you put it perfectly: “unnecessary.”
It’s interesting that I, for some odd reason, show interest in—even actively seek out!—these kind of movies where dizzling heights is either the primary focal point or a major ingredient. I’ve mentioned that installment of Mission Impossible upthread; another is a documentary on Disney+ about an American rock climber. That one is painful to watch if you have even the slightest hint of acrophobia! Its title is Free Solo, and it’s presented by Disney like so:
So why expose oneself to this? I’ve grown increasingly afraid of heights through adulthood, so cannot help but find it puzzling. Is it self-torture?
Oh, yeah! They were good. I know what you mean.

Right, the head shape differs.
Me, too. A lot of similarities.
I didn't say it was.
(But I do hate on Spain in general due to them having animal cruelty as their national sport.)

(very flattering)- unlike me, the monolingual heathen, lol. In any case, I was merely getting excited over the appearance on the page, so to speak, of the vocab. I did provide the translation.
Lovely words!
Since I'm monolingual I can't do justice to this question. Although I did study Latin, French and Spanish at school. French for 10 years, ye gods!
