“(MU) It flows as a Guillaume Brac film, but is less structured, less rohmerian, or seems so. The director likes a character and stays with him till find another...what a elusive looser the hero...” read more
“(OK) After Les Parapluis and Demoiselles, I stand for this. Demy just tries to put in words and lyrics (there's not a nice tune, a pitty) ugly themes, fatal love, decadence, strike, undesired pregnancy... Sanda is excelletn and sexy just with a coat...” read more

“(USB) A film and a place (in fact one street and one family) with a heart. The wasn't brilliant till Branagh rounds it wih the dilemma of leaving or staying in a lousy atmosphere of protestant violent fanatism. The boy is he heart of the heattfull story and makes tha laghs when says to mom: 'its bio” read more
“(OK) Mizoguchi simplifies too much or gets the best of each story, each character? Both. Whores are everything but strange characters here, are as fragile and as pracical and as moral as they could be in her business in where the body is a kind of safe box.” read more
“(NX) Best of these times, welcome again Jane Campion. The ambiguity, ellipses, mysteries, second thoughts, seduction between two characters not opposed as you may think, but complemented. The young boy is the knew Benedict, able to go where he was restrained to go, blame it to the mythical Bronco Ha” read more
“(Alcazar) Scott ammuses with the cast. All of them, sauf Pacino, has the burden of trying to be italian, that´s a bit annoying. Poduction values, in special set desing and properties of Gucci are excellent (even Mauicio remains as an non explained character, her obsessive wife is more developed, an” read more
“(MU) The Sparks and Carax, are a perverted trio in this one. There's a fantastic romantic dimension, nos so classical or vintage in musical cinema standards, going for non typical themes (Annette is a kind of doll, her delivery with a pretty choral song, tha death of Marion in the yacht) ans the tou” read more
“(YT) Maybe more enthusiasm than talent, bt there's tue rupture of drama and style, the wild call of the metropolitan street, with all its temptaions and joys, that is appealing, bye kameraschafdt...” read more

“(OK) Un relojito de almodovarismo, melodrama puro con arrebatos de pasión, perosnajes que se explica y hasta dicen lo que no hicieron, incecencia e ingenuidad con eficacia total; el héroe es un hijo del transporte de Madrid, la ciudad y muchas cosas habitan en él...” read more
“(MU) Texture, tone, fantasy, Tilda 'mu son is a monser' Swinton, satanic handsome Ezra Miller, a happily distracted faher, real rotten spanish tomatoes...” read more
“(NX) A musical in progress, a professional autobiography, that is as ineresting as frustrating. The HIV early nineties stuff, the essays, the one and only who can win, those topics are more american than universal...I wann see "Rent"” read more
“(OK) Fuck Griffith social and moral observation, he'll always be late in that; the romantic and melodramatic mood with the glorious articulo mortis wedding, that the film..” read more
“(MU) More 'simply bad' than 'film maudit', but who can resist such a cast? Varda must've felt guilty to have such great people doing nonsente (¡Denueve and De Niro improvising an idiot scene, Moreau and Schygulla looking each other trying to do something, Belmondo and Lollobrigida in lousy cameos, ” read more
“(MU) Gorgeous restauration. Chaplin as a royal witness of America's materialism ans lack of nobility, not in the monarchial way but in the humna. Just see his sober silent expression when he realizes the boy has benn blalckmailed to accuse his parents comrades...” read more
