little miss sunshine | 2006

Resultat d'imatges de little miss sunshine

Little Miss Sunshine, the movie you could see a thousand times and still enjoy it. Surprisingly you see how the movie is going to be from the beginning but you stay watching it because it produces a lot of comedic scenes that catch your attention and that make the trip, in where the characters are involved, really funny.

It could be said there's a two journeys/trips in this film. The real trip to Los Angeles where Olive (Abigail Breslin) is going to participate in a Miss little Sunshine competition and also a journey of the characters as said before because they evolve in different ways without losing the things that define them. In this film everyone has a very remarked personality, one is a teenager who idolizes Nietzsche, a drug addict grandpa, a girl who is obsessed with winning a competition where she does not fit, a teacher who wanted to commit suicide, and the parents: one that is hysteric and the other who is obsessed with his theories.

All together create a magic combination that makes this film a very remarkable comedy for all ages because everyone enjoys the trip and the things that happen. It think, though, that the best thing is the end because you obviously see that Olive isn't the kind of girl identified with a beauty competition but finally she shows everyone how real life is and how the girls are being ridiculous.

joker | 2019

Is Joaquin Phoenix's performance of the Joker worth an Oscar nomination? Yes. Ok, but, besides that, why is everybody so hyped by this film? Because we've seen a movie with plenty of superheroes hit the box office this year and now, six months later, just one man, a villain, is stealing the whole show. The one thing that hyped me the most was reading, when the movie premiered at the Venice Film Festival back in September, that this movie didn't have special effects, that it was organic.   I know, I'm not going to say anything you've already read on any film magazine or twitter, instagram or your friends may have commented but I needed to post this.  Joker is a movie that is undoubtedly influenced by Scorsese's films, such as Taxi Driver (1976) and presents a Gotham that reminds us of the 1970's New York. One of the things I liked the most is the contextualisation of the action, because it helped to understand and empathize with Arthur Fleck, the...

the guernsey literary and potato peel pie society | 2018

This film is based on the book written by Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows where every chapter is a letter written by a different character.  Juliet Ashton (Lily James) is the main character of this lovely film that portrays the story from some citizens from Guernsey Island that became a family when the nazis occupied the island during the II World War. As they had taken away all what they loved, they started a literary club where they discussed about books and life while they refuged from the demands of the nazis.  Juliet Ashton, a londoner who lost her parents when she was a girl, meets this literary club through a letter that Dawsey Adams, a citizen from the island, sends to her when he found out her name and address in a book from the local library that had been abandoned.

blue jasmine | 2013

Woody Allen's new movie is a real must see for this year. Cate Blanchett makes an incredible performance of a woman that has lost everything. She had been part of one of the most rich families in the USA and the world. She had everything but a single moment of her life changed everything. Woody Allen demonstrates that he knows when he needs and it's the most appropiate moment to do a movie and when not. Right know with the crisis this movie reflects in some way what nearly every 'normal' family has to suffer. It portrays the fact that, we've been loosing things and all things we're missing now.  The story then, i  a mixture of originality and classic facts that really make this movie one of the best movies of the year. I also would like to point out the fact that the transitions between the past and the present of Jasmine's life are very well done and that shows the great work that Woody Allen and his team have done.  Real...
