Actors ages and other stuff about El Cor de la Ciutat

Hey there, I am totally new to this place and was about to lurking around some time instead of barging in, but when I found the El Cor thread I just had to bring myself in since I was for four weeks of my live this summer TOOOtally infatuated with this show, so far so that I watched up to a hundred episodes of it on the Net to find out about anything other in the series that wasn't posted at Youtube and give members of a fan group I was participating in an overview. Even they thought I acted somehow insane ...

Yes, you can actually view the shows episodes on the internet, the Catalan channel is very nice in doing that, haven't heard about something like that before. The link is:

http://www.tv3.cat/pprogrames/elcor/corSeccio.jsp

From there you can go to all earlier episodes. Some of them sometimes don't work but I would estimate about 70 percent will lead to a summary and also the episode itself.

If you want to know about the story of the two guys you can go to MySpace "Max & Enric". I hope you can find it since the search function at MySpace seems a little odd:

Be aware of spoilers now.

There are posts about the storyline, about the clips at Youtube, about the actors - they are both old enough, in fact the one who looked like a fourteen year old, out student Max, the actor is 21. Jordi Pares, the other guy, who plays Enric, is 17 or the like. He - Jordi - is also out in real life and just a few days ago uploaded a kissing video with his boyfriend Marc at Youtube.  

It is funny, he must have been aware of the kissing videos at YT - there are seven, from first chaste kiss up to the seventh make up kiss in front of the resident homophob and all in public at the pizzeria Max works part time - because he titled his videos "Marc and Enric 8th / 9th kiss". Best see for yourself.  

Oh, and just to add: the admin of the MySpace group deleted the thread in which we discussed the - real - 8th and 9th kiss as "too private" - yeah, right, something the kissing guy put himself at Youtube REALLLLY had to be considered too private *uargs* - and I don't approve of that action

That seventh - tv - kiss was the climax, I don't know how much emphasize will be on the relationship in the future now that Max got his boy, but for anyone who is interested, the daily soap starts again with a new season on September,12. You can watch through the link above.

Enjoy.

Best, Martial

Max and Iago at El Cor

 

What Max and Enric had at El Cor involved a coming-out story. However, after the two publicly announced their relationship, they became intimate not only with each other but to other gays that they wanted to invite in bed. Now I see an openness to their relationship where they can freely hop in bed with others granted they they only made the deed with the same person only once.

 

Max was not completely comfortable with what their relationship had gone. Thankfully, Iago came which at first became an asshole of a character. This angsty attitude of Iago is the reason Max loathed about. However, it could only be inferred that Iago's attitude became the force for Max's eventual falling in.

 

The story of Max and Iago is, what I say, really brilliant. It is about "us against the world". The story is not stereotypical. Although the storyline of Max and Iago involved homophobia, their relationship is not turned down by their folks and friends because they are gay but because Iago had to face the law. Max is a good student while Iago is a delinquent. They are completely opposing characters, but as they say, opposites attract.

I am a new fan of this gay couple and their storyline. And I would like to give them an 11 out 10 for romance and 9 out of 10 for originality.
