Crimes of the Future review
Posted : 11 months ago on 17 June 2023 11:33 (A review of Crimes of the Future)(MU) MMhhh, Cronenberg exploring his themes and budget (he makes everything, soundless, no dialogues, but voice in off), there's the idea of new organs (reused in the next "Crimes of the future"), the foot fetichism, some shy homoerotism nd more...

Posted : 11 months, 1 week ago on 11 June 2023 01:23 (A review of Wanda (1970))(OK) I liked it pretty much than the 1rst view. Wanda has excellent lines and moments, in which non guilt, marginality, attraction to loser Mr Dennis (lovable character that humanizes and revitalizes Wanda while he is his last chance) merges wiht naiveté...The conversartion near the car, with beers, is wonderfull...
