The Bacchus Lady review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 12 December 2021 12:14 (A review of The Bacchus Lady)

(OK) Nice story in the edge of bieng reiterative corny and tricky (3 humanitarian killing is almost a serial killing film); but excellent Yoon and sex at his age, saves any flaw

Friends and Strangers review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 12 December 2021 12:10 (A review of Friends and Strangers)

(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...

A Room in Town (1982) review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 12 December 2021 12:03 (A review of A Room in Town (1982))

(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...

The Young Girls Turn 25 review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 12 December 2021 12:00 (A review of The Young Girls Turn 25)

(OK) Very good material, behind scenes, documentary not finished by Varda, explanatuos, interviews, details, an escellent bonus for Demy's classic, taking advantage of its celebration in Rochefort...

Joyless Street review

(YT) Literally raw in its better theme ans scenes (the butcher, the poverty line and the ladies), expressionims meeting socioal conscious realism. Garbo, slim and beauty, ready for Hollywood. Asta Nielsen hieratic, excellent...

Maelstrom review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 11 December 2021 11:52 (A review of Maelstrom)

(OK) Early 'drole' Villeneuve, philosoficas, fishes talking and the heroine becoming devastated by guilt and then redeemed with love. Without becoming heavy or too stylized...

The Humans review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 5 December 2021 01:57 (A review of The Humans)

(USB) Hard to take, almost real time spend with a family in thanksgiving day dinner, there's sadness and revelations, and some joy, rituals and detaisl where you fell the family stuff... The apartment and its cracks are part of the humans...

Last Night in Soho review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 5 December 2021 01:53 (A review of Last Night in Soho)

(USB) Lousy. Too many elements: nostalgia of 60s, fashion, music, terror, thriller, all mixed up and lost...

Benedetta review

Posted : 2 years, 5 months ago on 5 December 2021 01:51 (A review of Benedetta)

(USB) Great story, a kind of "The devils" of 2021, as much gore as depiction of fanatism. Somehow Verhoeven swap styles, from comic like medieval fantasies, to and action movie. But the story remains with its deep dilemmas...
