Rainbow wraps


Song sung by Pedro in Ep. 80:  "Yo quiero que tu veas mas colores, Que te pongas a cantar en los camiones, Y que tu mundo se vuelva multicolor".

Reminds me of these projects in rainbow range of colors:


(While bolero was designed for a child, could be made larger for an adult by increasing length and if needed, sleeves made wider.  There's also pattern for matching "Mum and me" shawl designed for adult.)

Follow the Rainbow

Announced in February 2021, two American movies re-imagining WIZARD OF OZ are in production, but I think I'll still prefer lesser-known TV series (not promoted as being inspired by OZ) for being more innovative, entertaining and insightful. After repeat viewings of NBC's 100 episode  PARIENTES A LA FUERZA (Family By Force) , streaming On Demand by Spectrum, Youtube, Telemundo, I realized 2021 story about Hollywood screenwriter--born in Mexico, strayed from his cultural roots & family values--creatively alludes in many ways to 1939 version of  WIZARD OF OZ .  Eyes opened, now seems obvious to me.  Shakespeare himself is well-known for finding ideas for his own plays in history and other stories, creatively transforming them like powerful sorceror Prospero of his final play  THE TEMPEST  with famous Ariel's song "a sea change, into something rich and strange".

Brush up your Shakespeare:   LA MENTIRA  (The Lie) could be subtitled "Desdemona strikes back".  In LM , circumstantial "proofs" of a crime ("Dear John" letter, initial broach) are wrapped in handkerchief--reference to alleged proof of Desdemona's supposed infidelity in Shakespeare's play about lies,  OTHELLO .  Rev...
