Little Fires Everywhere: The Uncanny (2020) Season 1, Episode 6

loved it!

[10/10 · 8 April 2020]

I personally think that we will have to rethink all the discussions about who is a likable and who is an unlikable character. This episode was important in terms of that. It puts things into perspective. And we should also forget about the Kerry Washington's facial expression narrative, it doesn't matter anymore (it never mattered to me. unpopular opinion - i like her approach). The acting was amazing. The actors who played young Kerry and young Reese nailed it in every way. YAY

A Little Chaos (2014)

such a delight

[7/10 · 30 July 2015]

I do believe that the movie is slow, it is somehow predictable, it lacks action. BUT the scenes are very flowy, fluid, calm, precise. The camera movements are smooth, delicate. The sounds are warm. The music is outstanding, the atmosphere can be described as cosy, intimate, friendly. It is not a gardening movie but the flowers add color to it, the sceneries, the woods, the gardens are fascinating. Alan Rickman is a very good actor, a very good king. Stanley Tucci did an awesome job as well. KATE WINSLET. Oh God, Kate Winslet is the best "thing" that has ever happened to the film industry. I really like the fact that Sabine is not a 20 year old girl. Even though she is the main character, she doesn't do much, Kate still managed to make her interesting, to give her depth. The flood since was a nice flashback, Kate is "into" water.. if you know what i mean. I don't know if it is historically accurate, but Sabine is fictional. It's a movie, it shouldn't be criticized. It is not the most interesting movie ever, but the cast and the used techniques are worthy of attention.

Carnage (2011)

This is great!

[9/10 · 19 July 2015]

People tend to hate this movie. Maybe because of "the lack of action". I highly recommend it. Everything (well, almost everything) happens in a room during a visit. AND IT IS INTERESTING ENOUGH. The cast is amazing (Kate Winslet, Cristoph Waltz, Jodie Foster, John C. Reilly) the dialogs, the actions, etc. There's a variety of emotions from hate to "love" and then from "love" to hate. Everything is depicted impeccably with the help of an amazing cast. It's ironic, it's funny and relaxing to watch. Also, it's absurd cause the kids are getting along, they don't "feel the drama". It's all about that specific parental exaggeration which is rarely a movie topic. Well done!
