NEEDLING

THE LAST NINE MOVIES I'VE SEEN AT THE CINEMA

BlaBlaBla… when are the good movies coming back to the theaters?

Agent Secret, by Frédéric Schoendoerffer
You stay in the dark the whole time. Modern espionage with a few necessary clichés. There aren’t any good guys. They’re all bad. It’s not a rollercoaster ride, the karate fight scene is horrible. For what it is, I had fun.

Demain on déménage, by Chantal Akerman
I was suppose to see this with my mother the other day. But we were tired and hungry, so we decided to have a falafel rue de Rosier instead. We made a very good choice.

Las Horas del Dia, by Jaime Rosales
Well, this movie thought it had a good idea, but once the gimmick dissipated, there was nothing left. You still need a good story to make a good movie.

Malabar Princess, by Gilles Legrand
Okay, okay, so this movie goes for some soft melo-spots, but I had a lot of fun here, and in the end, that’s one important part of film going. Beautiful pictures of French country & rural life. I think this kind of role was made for Jacques Villeret.

Feux Rouges, by Cédric Kahn
Jean-Pierre Darroussin is one of my favorite actors, and Kahn’s last movie Roberto Succo was one good movie. I had too much expectation for this film to give it unbiased attention. However, if you drink a little too much, you might not want to see this, as it goes right home and takes no prisoners.

La Chambre Obscure, by Marie-Christine Questerbert
This is the kind of film which gets me upset with the French film subsidy policies. Then again, if it wasn’t for the subsidized industry, France wouldn’t have a film industry, so a few fuck-ups, even a lot of fuck-ups, is alright as long as the French film industry is not forced, anymore than it is already, to bow down to Hollywood. France has the only film industry worth anything left in Europe.

Prendimi l'anima, by Roberto Faenza
Give me a break.

Blueberry, l'expérience secrète, by Jan Kounen
Geese, I sat down expecting your regular run of the mill western. Boy was I wrong. If you’re a fan of peyolte, this is for you.

Podium, by Yann Moix
Benoît Poelvoorde is one funny guy. I kindda wished I had a better knowledge of French pop culture while watching this film, but it isn’t necessary. Even if you don’t know who Claude François was, you can still get a good laugh.
