(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....

(OK) Coté knows how to sustain a tematic documentary, nicely, elegant, tender, even sexy and sweaty. Each protagonis has a family or a diverse way of exercise his muscles...

(MU) Maybe the first long feature film from Bhutan, football and monks, bah, as maif as Dominique nique nique, but bad directed and acted...
