THE LAST TEN MOVIES I'VE SEEN AT THE CINEMA

Movies in the order of the most recent viewing:

Turning Gate by Sang-soo Hong
I enjoyed this tale about a selfish man in search of the love he'll never find. Not bad.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

Ana (real women have curves) by Patricia Cardoso
Simple sentimental comedy about being a young adult looking for independence and finding resistance instead of help from a difficult family. Okay.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

Le Retour by Andrei Zviaguintsev
This film doesn't even bother trying to give all the answers. Life is tough as hell. Excellent film. Skip school for this one.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

L'Esquive by Abdellatif Kechiche
This film gave me a headache. All the characters do is scream at each other the whole time. To avoid, unless you want to see a pseudo-socio-drama about being a teenager in an HLM complex (French projects or government housing) right outside of Paris.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

Jellyfish by Kiyoshi Kurosawa
I like this kindda of stuff. Fables. We're not sure why it works but it does. Definitely.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

The Station Agent by Thomas McCarthy
Manages to stay away from pathos and easy stereotypes. If you feel excluded... a little too American, though. Whatever that means.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

Les Amateur by Martin Valente
Another French HLM movie. A comedy this time. Stumbles on every stereotype and blows up every cliché. Stay away.
IMDB
ALLOCINE

Kill Bill : Volume 1 by Quentin Tarantino
What I like about Tarantino, is that he's one of the few American filmmakers who hasn't forgotten that movies don't have to follow any given rules. But does it have to be so violent?
IMDB
ALLOCINE

Après Vous... by Pierre Salvadori
I've liked this director ever since I saw "Les Apprentis," a cynical and dark comedy about a couple of pathetic individuals. "Après Vous..." however is just another passable comedy about a not so distinguishable looser. Entertaining.
IMDB

Qui a tué Bambi? by Gilles Marchand
After I got out of this film, I felt sick inside and I had nightmares the whole night. Good stuff!
