As I previously mentioned, one of the movies that will be screened during this year’s Toronto Film Festival is Amir Naderi‘s Cut, movie that already got a lot of attention at the Venice Fest.

Fiona — Mon, 12 Sep 2011 23:43:24 +0000

I really have no idea what’s wrong with the movie titles these days. What’s wrong with the good old short titles? Why do I have to write one word hundred of times? I mean – look at this one for example – People Mountain People Sea. It’s like – what was the last movie you’ve [...]

Fiona — Sat, 10 Sep 2011 23:02:38 +0000

I admit. I wasn’t so impressed with this year’s Venice Film Festival. Don’t know why, but every single time I actually tried to pay some attention on the movies that were in contention, I immediately cheated them all with Yorgos Lanthimos‘ Alps. Or even worse, with Roman Polanski‘s Carnage. C’mon, just check out the LineUp [...]

When I first heard of Alps, I was like – oh man, not some weird story once again! I mean, don’t get me wrong, I love Dogtooth, but have you already see all those reviews where they describe the latest Yorgos Lanthimos‘ project simply as – Dogtooth 2. That’s just not fair. Or, at least, [...]

Fiona — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 21:31:38 +0000

Ah, there’s something about the Italian language that makes me wanna see all Italian movies ever made. I’m just kidding. I love Italians, but that other part… well, I’ll skip it now.

I get bored easily. And somehow, this boring-mania usually starts with the Film Festivals, because then I have an obligation to watch all those boring trailers, read boring synopsis, write something boring about the movies, and so on… But it looks that this year, that won’t be a case.
