(MU) Kate Blanchett, locations and set design are bettter than the res of the film. The monologues, paraphrasing Marx and Engels communist manifesto, Dada, Bretos and other art manifestos; are pretty mise en scene, but becomes reiterative...

(MU) Long but gains in interest when you know the hipersexual nymphomaniac characters and thier excellent monologues, too wise to fell guilt, but feel despair instead...the hallucinations and anguishes of the monitor of th experiment collindes with the girls plots...

(MU) "Un mundo para Julius" en Rio contemporáneo, con un toque de mundo que acaba y se funde con otro, el de los empleados domésicos de forro y Sao Corrado, favela extendida. Coming of age, con momentos de mucha ternura y pica...y debate sobre las cuotas o acciones afirmativas...

(MU) A dying doctor anger, is a good theme. Zanussi is cold when becomes to this hot characters, that confrotns everyone and everything. He softens in proximity of death but that's expected, isn't it?

(MU) A hero more drunken and selfdestructive and macho, than romantic. Two women that speaks to bright (the literary origin is heavy) for being so submissive. Good direction whenever two characters interact...

(MU) Diao Yi'nan, chinese noir in prepandemic Wuhan, cool when it has to (a whore, of 'beauty of the lake' becoming engaged to a ganster on the loose that has to deny his feelings for his wife and legacy), hot when it has to (shootings, motorcycle robberies and runaways)...

(OK) Slow slapstick in the beginning, Grant as a retired romantic hero becomes a mathcmaker, kind of british Chevalier in Tokyo. Walters ends his film career in some easy uneasyness, lost in translation in Tokyo, with the backgroiund of 1964 olympics, globalysed, with a competition of forced pace runner...

(MU) Soft rneder even corny romantic fantasy surround characters in 4 episodes, life and death intetwinned in Misuki's emotions travelling with death husband in long farewell....

(MU) Thanks to the Word Cinema Project sponsored by Scorsese, voilá this great subtle non political nos miserabilist Brocka, focusisn on mother/daugther fight till last consecuences, melodrama with patina of tragedy, sexy, a young woman's revenge, no one is good or entirely bad. Mother is great actress...

(MU) An anecdote enlarged to longo feature, playing woth the iteration of the shoot in which Delia has to say she's the happiest girl, while struggling -realistically- with his father to retaing the car she has won....
