Nimic (2019)

Dünya prömiyerini 72. Locarno Film Festivali’nde yapmış olan Yorgos Lanthimos’un kısa filmi Nimic (2019), MUBI Türkiye’de gösterime girdiğinde, Lanthimos’un aşina olduğumuz soğuk, kara mizahla dolu, absürt dünyasının hangi parçasıyla karşılaşacağıma duyduğum merakla ekranın karşısına geçtim. MUBI filmi şöyle sunuyordu: “Yorgos Lanthimos filmleri, topluma yansıttığımız kimliklerin ardındaki varoluşsal dehşeti ararken, korku türüyle flört halindedir. Lanthimos’un hiç […]

A Place in the Sun (1951)

The world of art has often made a point of exploring the concept referred to as a “national novel”, which is defined as a work of literature that embodies every aspect of that country, encompassing both its history and present culture, and touching on many issues that are faced by their citizens, condensing them into […]

FIRST LOOK: The Christmas Chronicles 2 – Netflix

A year ago, I was pleasantly surprised by The Christmas Chronicles. Here was Kurt Snake Plisskin Russell as an uber cool Santa and they weren’t buying him. I didn’t think he’d make a very good Santa Claus and was wrong. So, here we are a year later and Netflix is delivering a sequel with Mrs. […]

A Rainy Day in New York (2019) Movie Review By D.M. Anderson

While nobody thinks Woody Allen has another Annie Hall in him, A Rainy Day in New York is a dull and forgettable film by a director still in love with the persona he’s now too old to perform himself. Like an aging classic rocker, he seems content to pay the bills by playing the hits with a backup band who weren’t even born during his prime.

It certainly has an all-star cast, featuring Robert De Niro, a very young Leonardo DiCaprio, and Ellen Barkin. This Boy’s Life is the movie version of writer Tobias Wolff’s book of the same name, […]

Hannah Arendt

Hannah Arendt is a biopic about the political theorist and author of The Origins of Totalitarianism and Eichmann in Jerusalem: A Report on the Banality of Evil, among other scholarly works. It’s not a study of her whole life, however, or even close to it; at least 90% of the film concerns Arendt’s aforementioned book […]
