In all fairness, writing a (negative) review about a film I have not seen nor I plan to watch is at least disrespectful and discourteous towards myself and the reader. However, the discourse of this post is not about how bad I find The Odyssey (2026; Christopher Nolan) to be and why so; conversely, – about my stance...

It all started with an announcement of a tribute to David Lynch with screenings of all his films in one of London's cinemas during the whole month of January. For all my love towards Lynch's works, my partner and I, sadly, couldn't make it there in January. However, we ended up watching a few of his films during our...

Night, absence of sound, and David Bowie. I think I already mentioned a bunch of times in my previous not numerous posts that David Lynch is my favourite director, and how passionately I love Mulholland dr.

Contents: Overview Deeper Analysis. Contains spoilers Conclusion (Spoiler free) Rope (1948; Alfred Hitchcock), poster via...

Owning to the lack of interesting to me pictures in (meagre in number) local cinemas, happened to be that this week marks the first time in a couple of years of my visiting cinema: when earlier this week I was told that Yorgos Lanthimos' new film, Bugonia was out in cinemas, it was no doubt that we were coming to...

It's almost Christmas, which means I can recommend you films to remind you of summer and write about a very pleasant pinch of nostalgia towards the times that have never been but that have a chance to roll out somewhere in the future. Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (1988; Pedro Almodóvar) Women on the...
