Akira Kurosawa Rashomon • by JpLoyRow2

Among the cornerstones of film history that revolve around the originality of narrative structure, Akira Kurosawa's 12th film, which was futilely imitated many times, was released almost by chance beyond Japan's borders. It became the starting point for Kurosawa's worldwide success (and that of his actor alter-ego, Toshiro Mifune) a…

Tracey Thorn A Distant Shore • by JonatanCoe

Hull, for example, is drenched for most of the year by a steel sky, heavy with rain and enveloped in a silence so reverent that you can hear the rustle of clothes and the weight of life through the creaking of wooden boards poorly fastened to the floor.

Stadio, Lucio Dalla Lunedì Cinema • by JonatanCoe

Nobody reads the end credits. Too many and too fast. A cascade of names, actors, skills that fall down in the most total indifference. Sleepy, while putting on my pajamas, with mint and fluoride in my mouth, they escort me to bed. Sometimes they find me already passed out o…

La strana società Il lungo viaggio dell'amico Harry • by Eliodoro

Turin group that some may remember for "Pop Corn" but who also recorded a prog album in 1972 released only in 2017 titled "Il lungo viaggio dell'amico Harry". The work was never published in '72 and it's easy to understand why; across the Channel in this genre, "Close to th…

Giorgio Moroder From Here to Eternity • by Dislocation

The inane god of twilight, bored, motionless, basks under the pearl-colored, delightfully cold sun of the solar system we call Kepler 11 and they name "Vrelkdskts," unimaginably far from us in the constellation we have named "Swan" and which they, the inhabitants of those worlds, for one of those coincidence…

Steve Roden & Machinefabriek Lichtung • by CosmicJocker

Excremental residues offend the nostrils like the stench emanating from open sewers, microscopic reddish pores refer to the immense solitude of Martian craters. Gentle white mites petrify the moment like Mesozoic monsters afflicted with albinism.

Ferzan Ozpetek Cuore sacro • by MartinVenator

Film practically divided into two parts, at times anonymous but, ultimately, heartfelt and certainly worth watching.

Wolfgang Groos Nonni alle prime armi • by bastoncinoverde

Small bourgeois comedy with a Teutonic twist, very politically correct; only, I must add, it's quite distressing to see Sukowa in such predicaments again.

Fabrizio Ferraro Quattro notti di uno straniero • by bastoncinoverde

I loved this alienated and alienating film, mysterious, oblique, and minimal; practically nothing happens, there are no dialogues, only background noises, a stunning and distressing black and white photography, a lesser yet true and vibrant Paris, and a love comme il faut, what else?

Nicolas Jaar Space Is Only Noise • by CosmicJocker

It's like the opening sequence of Altman’s "The Player" where each character - even if just for a few moments - managed to capture attention with something distinctive given to them alone.

Flavio Giurato Marco Polo • by RamirezAlHassar

Like a clot of honey at the bottom of an herbal tea made with thistle, dandelion, and artichoke.
Better yet, like a date at the bottom of a bitter coffee.
