“(OK) Some surprises, much better than Bergman doddying with his child Daniel. Molander, in his last, have Ingrid Bergman and Bjornstrand in a quick, tight, impecable "The collar" by Maupassant; Harriets Andersson in a perversion higinical softcore by Jorn Donner, Sjoman room fantasy with a black gil” read more
“(BLU) Bergamn compleed whta he made fresh and with no ambitios ten years ago. Here, there is history and facts on Faro that puts the interviews in context...” read more
“(Blu) Nice, very little, a few information and just Bergman chatting, in a classic doccumentary interview frame, with his neighbours...” read more

“(MU) Last Wajda film, the tragedy of a disabled artist pushed to misery and death by stalinism in Poland. In his end, wich is the films ending, he stumbles over mannequins and stays in the floor under an arm, in a composition that makes you recall the upside down christ in "Popol i diament"...” read more
“(PA) Una sorpresa, se construye con cierto pasmo, al que sigue la tensión creciente, realista, con actores casi naturales degradados a la agresión y el miedo, ninguno tiene la razón, pero uno comete el crimen. La naturaleza es neutra, ni sagrada, ni defendible, ni culpable de nada...” read more
“(MU) One of comtemporary masterpieces, hall almost all that was more stylized in "Pulp fiction", in special the rotine of bad guys discussing pop nonsense and habits. The two alternaed times structure is ok here because yoy need to cool off so much tension...” read more
“(PA) Fry's script and De Laurentis megaproduction, gets an action espectacular piece from the dense Lagerkvyst literary base. Its the force of some characters (Palance gladiator, Gassmnan christian) and the round fatalism going after Barabbas fate. Mangano dissapears at time (her character is semi c” read more
“(PA) It seems a 60s or 70s policial/political film, but in Iran you may see it as contemporary. The heroine, even well acted, is 'one piece'. The idea of a killer too exposed and fool and careless levaing traces, is good...” read more

“(PA) 'Black comedy with food topic and tight, well structured script? In fact, humour fails, dialogues are heavy but script goes ok, punctuated by the dishes. The satirical comments are heavy, but the set, the plates, some details as the applause, some supports as the chinese administrator....” read more
“(PA) Bah, the women are as tough as men, nothing else. Fights, rythm , escapes, romance in the middle, confusing plot and autorithy in the palace ruled by a king. In this kind of actionfilm, indian RRR beats hem all this year...” read more
“(PA) Todd Field choses a professional life, an histrionic character for an affected diva (yeah, Blanchett is one), to explores the passing out on ambition, sex harrasing, egotism...Tar was a bad person and you see her in action but not in 'sanación' (this is the word and concept tied to the shipibo” read more
“(PA) So delicate, so much is said just in silent close ups, tears now and then, the parents waiting the bus with the children (the great way to tell us that Remi maybe commited suicide) , and justice unsolved....becuase Remi´s friend tells Remi's mother he feels guilty, but bullying of the boys is ” read more
“(PA) Oh, Spielberg as personal and jewish and occasionally funny, as Allen. His coming og age is passing from 8mm to 16mm, and becoming aware through film editing that his mom is having and affaire with uncle Benny. The secuence in wich Michelle Williams see (just her face) what we already know is g” read more

“(PA) Simple little thriller, effective, doesn't gets heavy with its technological stuff because its in fact kind of Blow up (Antonioni) or Blow Out (De Palma) of digital era; bur the principle (find the audio trace of a crime in the background) is the same. Kimi is just a gimmick” read more

“(MU) Kitchen provincial gangster film. Wheatley is kind of Ken Loach making a ganster film in the trace of "Family life". A criminal family tries to reset life and disintegrates in trying...” read more
“(TB) Good film of journalists (almost a genre in Hollywood) with strong structure subtly revealed in a choral charerization (the girl amazed by a filming in Ireland, then running, and later revealed as a key case), Ashley Judd by herself. Excellent acting in all the cast.” read more
“(MU) Campion, and Gerard Lee's screenplay, build a world for Sweetie in spite of everybody around her, progressing to her grand finale on the tree (don't want to spoil it). The trip to inner Australia -without Sweetie- is an elegy in the middle of all...” read more
“(OK) Depiction of gay ultrasophisticated drama and routine (poet Sigfried Sassoon, actor singer Ivor Novello, diverse socialites); dialogues are too heavy. The main character remains almost silent in the present time ans thats better. Davies abandons its poetic style for a classic academic narratio” read more
“(MU) Rejtman es constante y consistente, sus personajes lacónicos, con lógica que se determina en el momento (o eso parece) y resulta tan convincente con suhumor en sordina, cual Kaurismaki porteño. El tema del suicida con la bala en el cuerpo es notable.” read more
