“(MU) Stone maje Morrison and american hero/tragedy founded in indian dessert imagery/drugs and his fall and death seems a sympton of something bigger. That's too much but it's not underlined in every scene...” read more

“(OK) Greta is a bit tired and old for her stardom. Bennett is repectful of Greta but coild better than this. More frivolous than romantic...The musical number is ok” read more

“(MU) Alice Rohrwacher's debut has her main themes, ordinary santity or devilish characters, religion as a kind of mysterious corporation...and Christ over a car, fallen to the sea. With Fellini (Dolce Vota), Wayda (Ashes and diamonds) and Angelopolous, here's a great christ image” read more

“(OK) Cukor studies his character, follows and pushes her to run through the frame, to love or to perform, then the melodramatic ellegant touch od Colbert visiting her 'husbands' wife. Claudette is better in melodrama than dancing and singing...” read more

“(MU) Lousy copy, Eisensntienina editing, dogma of striking for revolution developed, but inside a fantastic, metapyshic, a bit existential story of a man wiht an impossible date with fate...after ten years in prison has one day of freedom and police seeking to make him not return in order to kill hi” read more

fernando posted a review of In the Loop

“(MU) Iannucci's political comedies are more credible and realist than ?House of cards? ore other political stuff. Too many words and verbal fights, but the hogh key is well sustained, some actions (the assintatn leakinf everything, the subsecreatary and her bleeding teeth...) are really amusing” read more

“(OK) Cukor just dances with his camera around stars ego, amd MGM elegant, loyal incursion in a classic. The introduction of characters and and of the love affair are loyal to Hollywood screenwriting, the language is yeah, hard to get, and even harder in funny support form John Barrymore and Edna May” read more

Grodin, in great acting, tires to convince Eddie Albert (superb) he is serious about Cybill and is going to abandon his recent wife. Next great secuence: Grodin tell the wife (bigger and lou” read more

“(MU) It seems a light version, with his fantastic touches, of Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Light and almost comic, and delicate intimate when tha two firnds discuss his familiar problems...” read more

“(OK) Even pirate copies are censored in the sex with boy first secuence. You have to look for the right scandalous copies. The adult Sweetback is a lousy actor that runs more than fuck; but the editing is so naif and original, that the film triumhs over any resistance” read more
