Nowhere (2023)
Very well done
Leaving aside some things that don't make any sense, this is a well done movie. It's a FICTION movie, hence the high number of things that don't happen in real life (phone battery that lasts 26 days?! - I want a cell phone like that too - whale coming out of nowhere to help people in need - well, even if that doesn't happen every day, it's possible, hypothermia was a big question mark). But none of these makes it a bad movie but contributes to making it an amazing story.. Focus on what a person could do in a very extreme situation like this one, and the movie is wonderful.
I was totally drawn into the story.. and I think I haven't seen a movie that kept me captivated like that in a long time. The actress deserves an Oscar - her acting is flawless.
Very well done! Thank you!
Carmen (2022)
(almost) An Art Film
Predictable and quite basic storyline. Yet, the movie is beautifully done!
If you are into action movies, or dramas - you will find yourself scratching your head a little.. but take it as a new type of presentation.. After all, aren't you already tired of the same gangster, mob stories with racing cars and heavy shootings? (I am! All of the action movies are the same: no real plot line just chasings and gory images.. )
For me, Carmen was like a realistic play that we watch on stages: dialogues are mingled with dance and music to express feelings more than mere images, at times alternating the past and the present, the cause and the effect, the reality and the imaginary..
It's 'almost' an art movie because the image was not spectacular.. Instead, the soundtrack was. Among others, Paul Mescal (I had no idea who he was) sang a song amazingly, reminding me I wanted to learn how to play the guitar..
Wildcat (2022)
This is..
..more than a simple story about a "British soldier" and a wildcat.. This is a reflection of:
- what PEOPLE do to PEOPLE
- what PEOPLE do to ANIMALS
- what WE do to this PLANET
What Harry Turner doesn't know (and probably most of us don't) is that he, Harry, is the REAL HERO with one huge weapon: his heart.
Unfortunately, in a world governed by greed, lies and fake heroes, we fail to recognize the real ones. Here's my proof: Harry can NOT accept to participate to the destruction of this planet (by killing in the name of a 'noble' and 'patriotic' purpose), hence he thinks he's failing the outside expectations (depicted through media and 'action' movies), he feels he doesn't belong 'here'. And he wants to sacrifice himself.. He, the REAL HUMAN BEING.. We can see what people do to people - what WE did to Harry, by encouraging him to be something that he is not, something that most of us are not. He has the guts to admit he can't fulfill his 'duties'. And he's trying, in return to SAVE.. something.. whatever it can be saved of this planet.. I AM PROUD and HAPPY that young people like him and Samantha Zwicker exist!!! I wish I could give them a big hug and tell them how much better the world is because of their existence.
From the bottom of my heart: THANK YOU! To Harry and Sam, and to all the other ones that they represent!
