Yesterday i watched Conclave, pretty interesting movie on a topic that could be boring as hell: the process behind the election of a new pope
Casting are photography are both excellent

I

I'd watch this

it's not a perfect movie, the characters are a bit archetypical but the plot is quite original and, as i mentioned the casting is excellent

I had a lot of complicated feelings about The Substance, but overall I really loved it. It does have a ton of references to filmmakers like cronenberg etc. I prefer yorgos lanthimos work personally

Connais-tu le réalisateur Nicolas Winding Refn?
Il a une signature où lorsqu'on regarde une image, une photo, une scène, on sait que cette scène provient d'un film de lui. Comme Lanthimos. Comme Wes Anderson.

Son film le plus grand public est Drive avec Ryan Gosling.
Sinon, suggestion personnelle qui peut joindre le propos de The Substance, est Neon Demon, en 2016

Oui, ses films ont vraiment une esthétique particulière. J'avais bien aimé The Neon Demon.

Autre film particulier que j'ai vu il y a quelques semaines (je suis en retard), Zone of Interest de Jonathan Glazer, le réalisateur de Under the Skin (le film que pas grand monde a vu sauf les extraits où Scarlett Johansson est nue)

Deux films très différents mais que j'ai bien aimés.

Le côté absolument macabre où on ne voit absolument rien, la dualité entre la petite vie bourgeoise de l'officier nazi qui a sa maison collée (littéralement) au mur du camp d'Auschwitz, en pleine 2e Guerre...

J'aime les films des réalisateurs avec leur style et leur signature hors-norme.

A bit disappointed by the second opus, the actress is incredibly good but the story a bit lazy.
"It Follows" is still the best of this whole modern horror movies trend.

I just saw Letters from Iwo Jima the other day. What an interesting concept. This was a companion movie to Flags Of Our Fathers (Flags Of Our Fathers was an excellent book by the way along with its sequel Fly Boys by Bradley). Letters of Iwo Jima is supposed to be from the Japenese POV. I am haunted by the mass suicides with grenades in the caves of Sarbachi.

Strangely i never watched Letter from Iwo Jima although i’ve owned the dvd since it came out. I loved Flags of Our Fathers.

I love horror movies but i haven’t seen this one yet. This is with the same actress portraying the cop in Long Legs, correct?

I was anticipating this movie to come out since i had heard a lot about it & the day it was available i bought it & to be honest found it a bit disappointing when i first saw it. However after the movie i went online to find a few reviews & they were quite the eye-openers & i realized that i had missed so many key details as i was watching it. Like the background noises, for example. The noises from the death camps. So i watched it again the following day with the clarification & details from the reviews in mind & absolutely loved how brilliant the movie was!

I think so, just realized it by checking on IMDB
"Get out" and then "it follows" were pioneers it think in this new wave of horror movies. Both were pretty good.

Dans les films récents que j'ai vu au ciné et pas sur ma grande tv , il y a le comte de Monte-Cristo, j'y suis franchement allé à reculons, j'avais un peu de mal à comprendre ce qu'on pouvait apporter à une histoire usée jusqu'à la corde mais la performance d'acteurs est d'une rare qualité.
J'ai même acheté le 4k pour le revoir sur ma grande tv justement

Maika Monroe yes but I did not like longlegs at all, but it follows is a classic in my book great horror movie with great story and acting.​

Bad remake with so much potential, best adaption is the one with Gerard Depardieu back in 1998. Cette version auss était tellement trop longue 3h je crois ouf.

We'll agree to disagree on this one

Absolutely.

And the anticipation changes everything.

There was viewers who wanted to be refunded because they were so disappointed during Nicolas Winding Refn's DRIVE. Their argument was they thought it was a Fast and Furious type movie, based on their views of the trailer!

Biggest disappointment for me was Quentin Tarantino'S INGORIOUS BASTERDS. I did watch the trailer 20 times and thought it was more an action movie than usual for Tarantino.
Man I hated the movie with all my guts in the movie theater!

Je suis allé voir ''MONSIEUR AZNAVOUR''......à recommander ...film fascinant/réussi sur la vie d'une légende inoubliable.
