Les revenants (2012)
Smells like "Lost" here.....
I just finished watching the first season of The Returned series. Atmosphere, plot, music, actors, it's all excellent. It all has to do about life and death and how humans feel about it. We all miss our loved ones who died, but if they came back.. would we like that?
But I have the same feeling I had watching Lost series... it's full of mysteries and questions, and none of them is answered. Instead, new questions and mysteries arise in each episode.
I hope that all this will come to a satisfying end, and that the writers will explain most of the things happening.
I also hope I'm not wasting my time here, and that the series won't take more than 3 seasons to complete.
Interstellar (2014)
A unique space and movie experience
I watched Interstellar last night and I can still hear Zimmer's music in my head. Music was one of the best things about this movie and it was very similar to Phillip Glass style. If you've seen and liked the "Qatsi trilogy", you'll get exited with this one. The music was so fitting to a space themed movie and the fact it was getting too loud at the moments that movie sounds and voices/dialog were also loud and the action was on it's peak, made the whole experience more intense.
I don't care what people say, comparing this movie with Nolan's previous ones. I'm a big fan of space/sci-fi movies and this one was a unique experience. I think that he did a great job and there are a lot of scenes I could describe to prove how great director he is. This is a movie that I want my to children to watch when they grow up. To make them feel the poetry, the vastness, the silence and magic of space. To make them think about human kind and humanity. And that's a big proof of how good this movie is and what place will it take among the rest of Nolan's movies.
I hope that Nolan will continue to create masterpiece movies that blow our minds.
The Homesman (2014)
Good directing - Good story
I didn't know that Tommy Lee Jones directed this film, but directing was one of the things I liked the most about it.
In the whole movie there's always a dark/sad scene followed by a light/happy one, and it goes on and on like this until the end. And that's what made this movie bearable to watch. I'm a mother and the scenes with the dead babies, or the mother who throws her baby to the toilet was just too much for me... But the little happy moments following made me keep watching this. I think that this is actually a good directing technique and fitting to movies that want to talk about reality/real life etc.
Also the movie achieved to get me to that western atmosphere very well. It made me feel the sun, the cold wind, the silence and loneliness of the scenery, the attitude and way of living of the people of that time.
I also liked the ending in which I think that Tommy Lee Jones wants to say that incidents in life may change us temporally but in the end we never change and we're always the same.
Very good movie in general, quite cruel but realistic and honest.
