Metropolis

12/06/2015by Laura 23 Comments

The prospect of silent films seems a little daunting to me.  It’s such a different experience to what I’m used to.  As for German expressionism?  I’m way over my head, […]

Hansel and Gretel

11/06/2015by Laura 12 Comments

Not to be confused with the really quite dreadful Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters, this is a bizarre and unsettling little film from South Korea.  It isn’t a retelling of […]

Rec 4

11/05/2015by Laura 34 Comments

I loved the Rec trilogy (it made it to #5 on my first Halloween favourites list).  I loved Rec.  I loved Rec 2.  I even loved Rec 3 which most people […]

In The Mood For Love

08/05/2015by Laura 11 Comments

This is an impossibly beautiful, and deeply sorrowful story of forbidden love in Hong Kong in 1962.  Its rich and sumptuous colours, almost tangible textures and haunting soundtrack combine to […]

Eyes Without a Face (Les Yeux Sans Visage)

29/08/2014by Laura 12 Comments

That’s a creepy title, right?  Well, it’s very befitting of what remains (even after 54 years), a very creepy film. The faceless eyes of the title belong to Christiane, the […]

Untouchable (Intouchables)

28/08/2014by Laura 12 Comments

No, not Brian De Palma’s 1987 film starring Costner, Connery and De Niro.  This is a French language film from 2011 that tells the story of wealthy French aristo’ and quadriplegic […]

Bastards (Les Salauds)

21/07/2014by Laura 9 Comments

So that’s 100 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.  A confusing, poorly lit, disjointed and relentlessly grim 100 minutes, at that.  So what’s it about? The film opens […]
