El árbol de la sangre (2018)
Beautiful unraveling of a story, great locations & amazing screenplay
Watch this movie as an experience, instead of simply knowing the story : then it would make beautiful sense.
I loved how the story unraveled giving itself in bits and pieces, slowly moving forward ..
The plot is about a couple exploring common history, involving their families. They arrive at this beautiful family house, intending to write a novel about their joint / connected history..
They take turns to narrate the story as one of them is writing it down.
So this movie is about the story they are writing and what is enchanting about it is the way we as an audience get to experience this story..
Without giving away any spoilers, it is not a horror film if anybody gets any such feelers in the beginning..
The way the characters from the past interact with the characters in the present, through brilliant screenplay is a beautiful dance , that I as an audience enjoyed the most..
Inspire of having the feel of a thriller, this film is not an edge of the seat kind .. it has everything from beautiful sceneries through breathtaking locations, to beautiful characters .
I enjoyed how this story is told through the medium of cinema : hence an 8 out of 10 for this one..
Must watch for all those who love the power of cinema in telling stories...
The Meddler (2015)
A light hearted, fun to watch story that every one can identify with
A must watch for the awesomeness named Susan Sarandon!!!!
Oh she just becomes the character.
So this is a story of a 'more than necessary', 'concerned' meddling mom (Susan Sarandon) who kinda is super clingy to her 'not that young', 'in her late thirties' daughter (Rose Byrne)
The movie is such a simple yet heartwarming story about coping with loss, the way it plays out on our personalities..
I watched this movie, to start with just as a mode of killing time... but it's a must watch cuz each one of us can feel in the shoes of the characters..n inspite of being light hearted, this one has such strong characters ..
The writing has depth..
There was a scene where I found myself laughing out loud with the mom - daughter
And what starts as a fun movie about a mom
Crossing her boundaries turns into this really deep connection that this character has with others..
I thoroughly enjoyed it!!
A fabulous choice to watch it with the entire family, il definitely watch it again with my mom for sure..
8 out of 10 from me, for a light hearted, superbly written, fun must watch!
PS: also loved Rose Byrne's work!! Amazing
