My Favorite Movies Part 2

Musical out of the original arabian night's tale?It sounds repulsive at first,however the set is colorful and rich with sparkling tones and enchanting desires.Incredible animation all in all.

Brilliant animation,very underrated when it was first released and time shows that the major influences from a Great Escape and even Star Wars are a definite must to enjoy and cherish,mostly for older folks.

A Hollywood classic,this ambitious epic can be declared as one of the great "overrated" pictures of all time.Mesmerizing and an achievement of 3 (!) directors,the whole scenery and performances justify the result with an overreacting amount of Oscars.

Little is the price of this tender film by new Zealand,where angels fear to tread indeed.Maori ancestry,mysticism and pure innocence,a film rich with a flow of teen magic.Castle-Hughes is brilliant.

Allusions and near-significant adventures,the hokus-pokus Baron guided by the weird,exploitative Gilliam marks a terrific cinematic moment of mythical tales and sarcastic perceptions.

Jaws might not scare as it used to yet it holds a seminal spot in Spielberg's career and of the blockbuster renaissance.

Stars falling and dreams smashing.Lynch divides his audience and nevertheless leaves behind him as time goes by a few glorious films and Elephant Man is no exception.Like a miraculous essence,all of the motifs indicating racism and betrayal are obvious in this film,whereas trust is dangerous in the wrong hands.The self-destruction of this Elephant Man is society's slap to the cheek.

Burton's imagination regards Batman is like that of a person's entering the roller coaster for the first time...successful delight,the Prince songs are quite off the track but the whole 30's atmosphere compensates along with Nicholson/Keaton as the competitive duo.

A frightening film,power of T.V.,mass media influence and the heart of darkness.It is,no one can deny that.Big Brother is watching us we used to say in joking terms,now it isn't joyful anymore.Truman Show gives a possibility of what a possible future can be,I wish it doesn't come out as it shows.

A fantasy classic,who would've thought apes would be humanity's doomsday...or perhaps a sort of world salvation?An apocalyptic finale indicates Schaffner's scope and impressive mis-en-scene.Sensitivity and hostility from both species,just as nature intended?

Captivating,a truly unknown film investigating and studying the behind-the-scenes of the theater and their comical/versatile characters.Striking environmental observance and Yates creates his last grand film before his downfall.And Finney/Courtney give the BEST dual performance of '83.

Just robust.Female delight and male spookiness.All this come as elaborate studies on natural response to...a murder let's say.Altman kicks the system's ass,creates one of the best hyperlink films of the early 00's,oh and he never forgets to impress with the outstanding art direction and acting such is Mirren's and Fry's.

The real gore of this film is the power of human decadence.A blast to morality,Coens' screenplay urge you to watch some folks from a small town alienating themselves into malicious demons.

The swan song of Bergman is definitely a mash-up of his previous extraordinary metaphysical endorsements,still....the epic fragrance is as churning as the Ekdahl family's warm (yet boiling) edifice.
A panoramic spectacle of gigantic proportions,involving phantoms of the past,sexual arousals and arguably,mystical overtones...where the arts of novel and theater are the links of this (primarily) TV version and subsequently a theatrical edition with necessary cuts.
All that remains is silence,either that of the outland or of the earthlings.

Oh those cheeky junkies.Authors of the urban cataract.Burroughs invokes a deliberately fictional tale from the perspective of a wanna-be detective figure,captured in the midst of brainless activities and organized criminal misdemeanors.Oh the truthfulness of misery and hallucination.

Antagonism and fury.Two inseperate elements for creating distinct rage beneath the surface.Leung and Lau show the exterior of their souls in this fine cop-drama,the threshold of a successful series and the original of the inferior Departed.

Another father-son relationship which unprecedentedly marks the end of 60's innocence for the U.S. and what is to be done has already started.On behalf of the conformists: do not watch this movie,it's too skeptic.Oh,am I snobbish now?Well,go to Pattons and Rockys.If these were the American 70's,I will pledge for cinematic voodoo.Complain about nothingness for it's the best element of Seven!

A witty,eccentric dialogue film,recalling the countless heroes of Rohmer's...aging as the protagonist jumped from a Clarie's Knee to the Canadian landscape.Brilliant method acting and improvisation at the same time,a touching screenplay and a great Croze,for it might not be the peak of Arcand but still fascinates with an intellectual quality of words and conceptions.

Indie poetry,crafting melodrama,no sobbing pragmatism,just pure emotion.The screenplay is a diamond and Linney is supreme.

The King of Cool of Directors sets off his career with a smashing debut,clasping his stylistic camera techniques,in addition to a gripping storyline.A heist movie with the best James Caan and an ancient tragedy type ending,a film where macho attitude meets sensitive expression.

Sex machine.I'm not kidding,The finale provides some well-developed craft and intelligent behavior Mamet displayed once in his cinematic career so far.This particular moment of corruption and sadomasochist obsession is accurately opposed to the duo's passion with gambling.Brilliant overall.

Delirious puns and intentional jokes on moral cajoles.Stampede of anarchy and ever since its release,a defining "drag" classic.It sure isn't like the stage play,but Curry is on a roll,the music just keeps going on immediately after the finale,all in all,hypnotizing madness!!

Jewison is accommodated with the frustrating social/racial clashes during the 60's-70's era rather heist films.Thomas Crown is a gentleman thief.The kind of type you know he's a deceiver and cares for specific things,something ms Anderson aka Dunaway is aware.Jewison orchestrates both of them as pawns of a chess and if the check mate isn't successful,his rich,sly crook is just as perfect as his introductory scene.

A Belly of transgression.Snatching Mertens,offering Dennehy his must-see performance and yes folks,this is Peter Greenaway,out of the best directors working in and most importantly for cinema.Gasping with awe,the appropriate toast to a twisting little diamond from Albion.Nations,personalities collide with misery and treachery.Amongst 87's works of art for sure.

Provocative but not relentless.I remote myself in a vast plain,mingled with the sky's peacefulness.I wouldn't wish though to have such temper aside of me.Palms as a fake plastic manuscript of thoughts and determinations.The couple is disjointed and yet so loving you feel their inner loss towards the end.Dumont shows how much a film can present without shaky camera movement and a classic film-making persona.The outcast figure.

Sweet,dark,insatiably compelling in its low-budget.Jarmusch needs no introductions,he's the living king of autonomous film-making in the United States,with another exception of John Sayles.Fantastic facial expression of the characters' dullness,loafing around in complete sanity.

Grand depiction of the underdogs in New York of the 70's,a must-see for Scorsese comes up like a knowledgeable school-student and in the end,not only he's a fast learner,he creates his own school!

Superbly filmed and enticing in its narrative description,there are plenty of homages for every film-buff to enjoy,plus a frustrating comment towards gun-use and the obsessiveness of addiction.Either it's the glamorous industry or shooting for fun...

Delicate approach on various,contemporary sexual topics,from the Adam-Eve standard to puzzling tales of liturgical beauty.Figgis' most allegorical film.

Hit the road Frears and there you go,the ultimate con-men/thieves movie of the 90's (a totally different style from Usual Suspects) shrouded by incest,betrayal and wit to the bone!

Brilliant psychological thriller,Demme hasn't been that precise ever since his sole masterpiece.Terrific screenplay and another controversial duo between Hopkins/Foster.

Kidd's film has so far achieved as Roger would vigorously say,his peak.That culmination most independent films get through a season and at the same time drastically ignore their superficiality in accordance to the studio mediocrities.That guy actually reminded me of..me....The shape of things to come when you're young and charming..ha,indeed...

A blasting picture,the new father of inventive fine martial art and Jet Li in a career role,spoken only when necessary (think of the equivalent Schwarzenegger), impressive virtuoso professionalism by Tsui Hark (why did he go to Hollywood next for..Double Team???) and a sweet smell of nostalgia for original spectacle film,not the Bournes and Spielbergean "epics".

Babenco's jack pot in Hollywood was the death of his Oscar career.So what?Against the norms of studio decisions,Babenco controlled a subject truly remarkable and whoever thinks love and passion was a revolution in Brokeback Mountain,this is the real deal,the deserted souls.A fragmentary relationship gives the opportunity to Julia and Hurt to deliver exceptional interpretation of two incarcerated figures.What is fantasy constitutes the unacceptable and yet..so enticingly lustful.A memorable 80's film,different in structure and depth.

Re-evaluating my primary review.I am pre-occupied on the reasons of "why and "how".Noe admits to the viewer the immeasurable shock of the despaired individuals of his film caused by yes,unfair stupidities,enlightens their path gifted with the "style",provokes.A daring French filmmaker,a truthful plot,considering "performance" and post-modern art are the important messages,so occasions like these happen.That's life and that's the mystery of it.

Buddy movies are repulsive.Skinless the least.And how has Aldrich restored my faith on those action boiled themes?It was easy after 30 minutes of his reviving Phoenix.The malevolent desert,the terrific cast,the insignificance of life lest that darned plane sets off.

The purpose of shocking is extremely difficult to achieve.Ki-duk overcomes the barriers of cine-language by explicitly showing the human condition...maybe enjoying this as well?All in all,the Isle is poignant and on his top 5.

Removing sentiments,matrimonial confusions,it's no less than a naked intellect.Pasolini is the withering god of punctuality and the desolate face of Citti is fully eloquent in the antique manner of its topic.The kings are not dead yet..

Although I hate Rita Hayworth,that wasn't the big reason i chopped half a star.'46 had a couple of groundbreaking films like Great Expectations.Gilda is a passionately spirited film noir,dynamic and alluring.Of course it's a masterpiece but tiny tricks by a virtually talentless director don't help.The precise innovation instead for Gilda's extra points lies on Vidor's early experiments with shadows and different approaches of the actors.Something quite effective since he had a well-made story to deal with.

An almost prefect Hamlet on-screen,Gamlet as the first,psychological symbolism in Olivier's adaptation.Well-maintained film offering A-class performances and the Shakespearean pathos solid and unspoiled.Minor injustice at the Academy Awards,for Treasure of Sierra Madre should have prevailed that period,besides this it remains a token of great directed plays.

Fascinating,profound in whatever way possible.The three portraits of 3 female generations are penetrative,society's dignity mingles in a boiling pot.Come and see the 21st century of travesty.Meshkini delivered a stupendous piece of art,one of those films thus a couple will dare to watch because it's "unknown".

The greatest neorealist picture by an innovator of transgressive themes such is a prostitute's living condition.Landscape as a hostile environment and a male oppression.A bizarre feeling in the 20th century even more alternative thanks to that amazing creature named Giulietta Masina in a supreme role going against the conformism of the "ruling class".

I feel rather indifferent to the public reaction towards Lolita,none but the caressing heart.Few times novels that post-modern manage to possess enlightening adaptions on-screen and if Kubrick's frail and gargantuan song doesn't show this,then critical and public division is righteously so...

Ignore the usual comments regards to the flow of the film.It's sheer film-making at it's most possible and at it's most believable.The Israeli Platoon,too much dreadfulness and a few comrades who do the job.Is that all?Gitai locates the gene of good/evil inside the petrified eyes of his protagonists amidst trenches and bombings,where the opening and closing scene are the sole moments of self-relief and future hope.

Coming-of-age dark tale.Now what's the importance around this 'hood?Toyoda describes in a very simple way the daily school upbringing of a bunch of neo-slackers and offers a primitive affiliation to their environment.A great film all in all.

Anti-racist film evolving a perpetual egoism from Kazan's side,continuing relentlessly till we reach the culminating step with America,America.Whimsical and tragic in many circumstances,a picture where the major flaw stands on Dorothy McGuire's extravaganza.Holm is exceptional in a roller coaster part,Kazan's direction of his actors is always top-class.

A touching anti-war movie.Curious to find out?The enthralling hospital events are cut in accordance to Johnny's memories of his past life...before becoming a "plant" in the battlefield.So the doctors think.Trumbo justifies his hero's sanity through symbolic divisions and a helping nurse yet the inevitable dominion will arrive.Johnny's actions are noted in his mind as either mistakes or beneficial herbs.Trumbo might not be a director and manages on his sole feature to grab our soul's most tearing part.

4,5 stars from me because it's explicitly Christian-like reminiscent (not mentioning the "menage-a-trois" hypothesis there) to Pickpocket by Bresson.Dardenne are modern cinema's hopes whatever the case may be.

Kieslowski's testament as an amateur film-maker.The movie shows that,not the movie as a whole.The movie within a movie is a brilliant characteristic executed perfectly by his alter ego Jerzy Stuhr.From the first frame to the last second we as audience feel the passion of one's dream and the consequences around his community.Special appearance by director Zanussi,another legend of Polish cinema.

Dramatic altercations,gang warlords...does that sound familiar?Kim Ji-woon strolled back into the hardcore style of John Woo and the recent Johnny To creating a fast paced adventure.It might not please the majority but time will tell.

A stroll in the woods.Alternative title: how to face your demons,obey the unknown rules and express your gratitude by shutting up your pre-teen smile.Sorry,did I say shut up?To think it's a creepy achievement of elaborate shots and mysterioso atmosphere would be little.Arguably,a controversial subject carefully placed and a cathartic finale.

A lost treasure amidst the cinematic ocean,the question is: do you dare watching a film where only the idea of killing a child is necessary?The much-talked footage in the beginning is the premise for a haunting adventure under the boiling sun.The couple as an allegory of drifting souls,preys for children-hounds.Amazing!

Magnifico Bergman,a splendid anatomy of the human remorse and parental arrogance.God isn't a disbeliever rather the entity on our heroine's interior expedition.The Oscars awarded it foreign language film.So what?The best should have been the ultimate prize,but you see,it's a joke,language restrictions I suppose...

Boccaccio would have been proud..and cautious at first,it's a delightful pleasure to watch Decameron,striking images and anarchic events taking place,Pasolini once again bedazzles us.

A terrific depiction of the long-forgotten youth,it will crawl inside you and you don't have to be a Chinese to apply to what these dreams truly mean and focus on.The inches of respect and fervent ambition are but scaffolds for the proletarian class,most of the time their only way out from this bulk of stability.Yuanyuan is excellent in her role as the meek daughter and Xiaoshuai presents another great movie..

The times and ironies of a person's boring felicity.What a paradox.Antonio ought to have shown some gratitude being in a position of taking charge for once as action comes up to his doorstep.Brilliant portrayal of the Sicelian carefree living and hurdles in between with a slightly avoidable manner.The case is Mafioso arguably displays the consequences of trust and devotion to something,family in the movie as the chain of ever-after strength.Sordi's performance is the real Oscar-winner.

France as an inseperate tablet of juggling conclutions lest salvation comes right into the blue haven of allusions and terrible notions.Binoche is the missing puzzle of her wan personal life,her heroine stuck in the past and as the cinematography focuses on little details,the need for communication becomes shockingly...enlightening.The first part of a grand auteur trilogy.

This project was an enraged answer to Coppola's intervention on Hammett.Wenders was of course furious by the blockbuster thoughts of his American "partner" and upon his return to Germany,he decided to do things by himself.A fabulous director's movie was made in a cheap budget,providing numerous cine-wonders and references to noir,experimental film and sci-fi (the primary sequence is an ideal homage to Wise).

Orgiastic benevolence.And that is all I can say.Well,I'll spice it up with a touch of melancholic grandiose.

Dig up your hole Virgin Mary,Mother Teresa is waiting for you and her beloved prince-charming is standing aside!!!
Act 5 over,Scene 5 over,don't you worry Nazarin,your time hasn't come just yet...

Passive as time goes by drama.Visconti excels his pace and fragmentary love affairs by lustfully projecting us the disaffection of passion throughout the course of harrowing events.Could be seen as a major precursor to Taviani's Allonsanfan,still maintaining a hidden strength in operatic detail to this very millennium.

Children prisons in Turkey,a grappling theme for all the heartbreaking souls.Unique and Gunei approaches in acute vibration the movement and progress of the kids' and teens' guilt of either petty crimes or even murders.The wall of their punishment is the analogy required for the authorities to place order and Gunei shows this certain order simply makes things worse instead of clean-cut education.

Choreography reminiscent of amorous libidos.Oh Bizet,I present thee your successor and the utmost of your vision in cinematic perfection.

This is visual poetry ladies and gents.the one's who are patient enough and admire how a real auteur is like,make haste.Lest you decide the opposite,it's rare for a female director to be much bolder than her male counterparts and swear the church with such profanity and unabashed exclamation,I was shocked in a greater degree than Salo,and I equally love these films.

Unfair treatment back then for a modern classic as of now,Jewison proved by the end of the 70's his authority in groundbreaking scenarios constructing them in romantic adventures of male idealists.Romanticism as a notion without the juicy parts,and Pacino's role is what the cause prevents him from doing.Bullet with Butterfly Wings,twisted paradox for someone who breaks into the law's bargain?

Charming,a burlesque and original film by Disney productions,Dalmatians is a favorite of mine,capturing an action/romance essence surpassing more famous ones like Cinderella.

Lovely charisma by Norman Wisdom,the joy of this movie comes from the roulette joggling of the slapstick elements,the wonderful supporting cast (Rutherford as a rather..."innocent" rich granny),a comedy keeping the precise scope,numerous chases,the occasional romance but beware,anarchy ensues!!

Maybe the ultimate sometimes leaves you simply reconciled with the notion of superstition.The general chaos of classifying which is which.A tremendous,perfect sketch could be described as the salvation of animation.A perfect accusation could be a torch in the cavern.Hail Bashir,the frivolous phantom..

This is how American cinema should be...openly dense and fearlessly howling to all contenders,bouts from every corner of this world.It's a terrible newsreel,Bukowski on the screenplay of a Schroeder film,pessimistic,as far as the jackals can move...Rourke in an electrifying performance.I gotta get a drink...

Compelling,aesthetic to the flesh,Miles is divine and superb as the no strings attached Rosy.Lean is masterful depicting long,riveting landscapes stretching to the edge of feelings.The storyline is actually far more solid than in Zhivago and the epic quality of this fairytale juxtaposes the sexual lust.

Maberly's expression not only devours the fake maneuvers of a Dakota Fanning,she is a blooming example for other,"robust" child actors/actresses.Perfect Agnieszka Holland film,fresh and sensitive.

Zeffirelli at his hilltop symposium.Enticing and uplifting in most parts,Shakespeare would be utterly pleased from the final result no matter how theatrical it appears.There's faith on the endless bout of the sexes and a reconciliation in a (assured) comedic matter.Costumes and art direction are shining but what strikes most is the aggressive formation of...the couple's performance!!!A rich adaptation lacking that certain something for a complete 10!

Bold cinema,you'd feel it was like some sort of nouvelle vague homage despite the monotony of the characters and their "rebellious" attitude.I was immensely surprised however by the self-destruction of the protagonist Louis Garrel (definitely talented) and the rest of the gang through the joy of life,opium,sex and lots of 60's hallucinatory references.A wonderful homage for whatever the case may be.

It's possibly THE one-man show from Williams.In addition to my previous remark,it's also the best dramedy about the Vietnam conflict (Tropic Thunder,are you kidding me?) and it's truth be told Levinson's greatest attempt since then.Oh yes,sorry Rain Man.

Oh joy to the youngsters,the gracious question marks,what is logic?The end of reluctance,a desperate tangling,perjury,yes.
Apostrophe and immortality.Communication is the key but while we're eagerly waiting for the key,philosophy can bulk our sodding curiosity.

Romero's trilogy is a feast for the..human fleshes!!!No,really,the hordes of manic zombies violating us,the entire population is one shockingly realistic vision.No other type of film (let alone this trilogy inspired the video game for youths like Resident Evil) is placed next to these epic films,the last part containing even emotional theories and common sense from the zombie side.

The best Ron Howard film maintains a transfiguration in addition to a spectacular fantasy environment as if it were an illustrated classic fairytale.Kilmer seems to be enjoying it while Warwick Davis steals the show as usual,all this brimmed with a diverse chivalry and Old Hollywood aroma.

I was wooed by the call of the wild,oh the poetic motion and oh the indiscreet nature of the protagonists.Mesmerizing to the end of social inflation,the political scenery is a stereotypical background,erotica and affliction in the countryside is what makes this film move around.Such brilliance near the mountains.

Realistic piece of delightful"slash"melodramatic love story.Card players deal,Demy follows our pair of quizzes and jinxes,or maybe fortunes of luck?Nice,the Bay of Angels,brilliant Moreau,what's the catch?Unless you don't believe in optimism in films sometimes,avoid at all costs.

Largely debunked by the public's generosity,one of 2003's greatest films is a living depiction of modern (!) communities in the depths of Indian hilltops.The attachment of viewers towards Kalki,the sheep for slaughter,will be predictable,it is a fact however that Jha creates a "medieval" atmosphere,where fleeting moments fear to tread the heating,most violent human conditions.

It's peplum,was Hollywood able to avoid this Italian influence?
Kubrick (or should we exclaim,Douglas) had quite a strong force of talented cast and crew,the outcome is a breathtaking feature with an incredibly hidden symbolism and a passionate grasp,whatever that would be,battles,dialogues,gender distortions,everything has such an order that's it's no surprise Spartacus is on the top 10 of the "sandal" films of Hollywood.And Ustinov is such a dude!

Nothingness is the path to victory and in any constant public reactions,this would be the doomsday of most motion pictures.I will admit that Reygadas uses no script whatsoever,but why should i erase his ability to project a serene environment in a hostile manner?

Coming into the second bleakness of the trilogy,a clarification and a distant remorse,Gunnar Bjornstrand gives acting lessons and the limits of breakthrough and Deity create a fruitful bond of knowledge.Well,and unsurpassed atheism.

An ambitious film,initiative of a long-running series where Clive Barker's magic wand increased a predictable amount of upcoming gore.The original is as one reviewer mentioned "tame" considering the recent lackluster examples.Well,forget those examples,a relentless storyline,jumpy cuts and a Hollywood aura make this semi-independent flick slightly different from the usual horror movie and yet desperately seeking to find an identity like the decayed protagonist.

The craft of Fleischer's adventures is the exploitation he slams in each and every film of his.Historical allusions often make ingenious appearances,aha!The difference however of the current production of "swords and sandals" is the cheesiness of it.Gladiator in front of Vikings is like a child sucking from its mother's breast!!!!

Political romance,the harsh criticism will attack with a low blow and yet this certain,passive ability of Beatty to glorify what has become a symbol of revolution is more than stupendous thinking at the same time an achievement like that hasn't occurred ever since Eisenstein and Gone with the Wind paused and the biased "wealthy" successors took responsibility.Communism in the hands of serious Hollywood equals superb awe... Loads of arguments?Sure,but heck,I bet P.T. Anderson was a bit influenced by this film to create his magnum opus,don't you think?

The sole "prehistoric movie" to assemble the human instinct on species still immature of their physical identity.Warriors,mammals,united or separated,it's a pretty engaging motion picture by Annaud,so don't even bother watching Emmerich's blockbuster atrocity.

Sure,the 80's do show a reckless enthusiasm,momentarily because this hilarious comedy is one of the great teen flicks with a fresh scenario and no overreacting allusions e.g. Bill and Ted style.A jolly ride for me.

A haunting piece of art,Benny is like a neo-structuralist child of the remnants of Nazi youth.The repetitive violence he's self-subdued into,unbeknown to his parents leads us to a powerful question,that of the worth of human responsibility.

Whenever a director defies rules,criticism rises.Reygadas isn't yet a big art-house name.He dares and no matter how sour his anti-Catholic story may seem,the fact he chooses to show ugliness in an enticing way,should we assume ugliness is a universal term by the "civilized" people,proves he's a director with guts and focus!

So what if it's an unusual assault to moral attitudes?Perhaps it is a whole lot of a terrible sketch.Polanski definitely has a writer's block and yet,I thoroughly enjoyed the crazy ride.Sometimes,a couple of films despite their idiosyncrasy,give you a certain flash of juvenile happiness.

A prolific 90's joy-ride,based on the acclaimed book of the same title,frustrating pictures but that's brutal reality.Carlyle on a surprise part,Boyle mixes fun and curiosity and the soundtrack is a blast.

My ridiculous decision...to form a one-night stand course of actions,break the norms by activating emotions and ultimately,reverse my fortune's bastardization by puking truthful sequences.What's the point from the beginning is there's no remorse,no maliciousness.Brilliant Dogme angles,I love you Kerry Fox....

James Dean is in and out of the screen.The respective leads flash in an instant and if the terrific direction won't shun you,family epics aren't your thing.Stevens reaches pinnacle and as the sparkling tension of American civilized attention processes,we can always diminish those criticisms and enjoy the ruthless catapults of ranchers,crooks and brawlers.

I shall applaud Lin,and a thousand more cheers if he continues to preserve this aromatic stigma like in this picture.Jia Siao-guo as the nerve-cracking psychologist and Lunmei Kwai as the feminine free spirit fill the screen with superb warmth,parts of the road trip triangle,immobilized by time and yet in search of this love,this flame,a "something" to root for.

A masculine movie in spite of the exceptional twist somewhere in the middle,Koutras is evolving,leaving behind aliens and bourgeois salons,there's simply a bohemian state of free-spirited individuals (with a fine sense of rhythm in the frame by frame observance of the social status) alongside the neglect for but also the casualty of "strange" people.
Orfanou playing the titular transsexual sparkles in her debut and Kokiasmenos presents a stiffed ex-inmate,beginning a chain reaction stretching to a (curiously enough) panegyric finale.

It's this tiny difference like Kurosawa's Idiot which brings me to the point of applauding the boldness of this whimsical restoration,even without the missing bits and deleted scenes,Star is Born is placed amidst the unique triumphs of Cukor,"give me a reason to love you" as Portishead recently sang...(Mason is quite the charmer to be frank)

The most accessible Angelopoulos you can reach.A terrific intermezzo sequence in between the laboring of the protagonist and his suppressed sexuality.Memories and evoking scenery,there's certainly a poetic homage to natural distraction.The tumultuous landscape of Greece serves as a paleolithic,facial doorknob.Outcasts are not allowed here.

Angelidi is unlike anything you've witnessed in the worldwide scope of directing.Her studies intensified her aesthetics in camera-frames causing her to shoot Thief or Reality with an unstoppable pulse of implausible situations and yet all put together in an acceptable order.Thief steals lives but it also fills in the emotional shell,Thief is the Future who manipulates,propagates...
Woman although scrawny is finally the point of no return for the imbeciles,the fair judgment.And if human life is but a song,a seer is the solemn singer...

What is it about modern transgressions?Are there any loopholes so that personal property alters to forbidden environments?Litsis as the commentator of his privacy!
Which there isn't any,it's all a fake human interaction,or the urban solitude...or the compelling oral exchanges of his everyday routine...
