Peter Weir -Picnic A Hanging Rock

Dreamlike, unsettling, incredibly captivating. A film with a unique atmosphere, a dream on film, something inexplicable, breathtaking photography, stunning music, auteur direction. Weir's masterpiece (just slightly superior to The Truman Show and The Broken Years). more

Martin Scorsese — Toro Scatenato | DeRank™: 0,00

Truly an absolute masterpiece, a gigantic Scorsese who here directs one of his best works, De Niro reaffirms himself as the greatest actor of all time with a performance beyond the exceptional, probably his peak, truly off the charts. Stunning cinematography. The film is one of the 5 most beautiful of the '80s (perhaps even one of the 3 most beautiful). A huge masterpiece, a milestone in the history of cinema. more

Martin Scorsese — Taxi Driver | DeRank™: 0,00

MY favorite film. Outside the norm. The definitive consecration of Martin Scorsese and Robert De Niro, the solidification of their extraordinary partnership, the peak (or one of the peaks) for both. Taxi Driver is probably Scorsese's absolute masterpiece (it competes with Raging Bull), and De Niro here is colossal, out of the norm, absurd, just like the director himself. The young Jodie Foster is also wonderful. A cornerstone of world cinema. 10 more

John Carpenter — La Cosa | DeRank™: 0,00

For me, it’s one of Carpenter's best films. A claustrophobic and nightmarish atmosphere, the terror and suspicion expanding with every passing minute, leading to a splendid finale. One of the finest science fiction films of the '80s. A highly successful remake, then.

Ridley Scott — Blade Runner | DeRank™: 0,00

One of the 5 most beautiful science fiction films of all time. Although it is not the most faithful adaptation of a Dick novel, it is the one that is qualitatively the most successful: a masterpiece that could be discussed for hours. The atmosphere, the direction of the best Scott ever, the wonderful ending (the one from The Final Cut, of course), the unforgettable Rutger Hauer, the excellent performances by Ford, Daryl Hannah, and Sean Young, the soundtrack. A timeless masterpiece. more
John Carpenter -1997: Fuga da New York
hjhhjij
Great action/sci-fi film, now recognized as a cult classic. A great Kurt Russell and exceptional supporting actors, from Henry Dean Stanton to the loyal Donald Pleasance, Adrienne Barbeau (Carpenter's wife), Frank Doubleday, and Tom Askins, all the way to the old glory Lee Van Cleef. As always, excellent direction by John Carpenter, a dark and devastated New York, more pessimistic than ever, good cinematography, a screenplay that is not exceptional (not surprising with Carpenter), and some truly great scenes. Really a nice film. 8 more
Stanley Kubrick -Arancia Meccanica

Epic, stunning, shocking, violent, extraordinary, a breathtaking finale. One of the 10 greatest films of all time. I won’t use more words because I have none left; I’ll just say that the first 30-40 minutes and the finale alone are worth a 10, everything else just solidifies it. Story. more

Tim Burton — Ed Wood | DeRank™: 0,00

"Ed Wood" remains for me one of Tim Burton's brightest gems, though it is far from his typical style. The story of a man completely devoid of talent but with an endless passion for cinema and his work, wonderfully portrayed (with applause for Depp and Landau) and directed. You root for him, even knowing that his films are actually terrible. A great film. more
