Populair

I usually hate foreign films as I'm too lazy to read all those subtitles but this film instantly grabbed me  set in the 50s it follows a village girl who becomes a speed typing champion. The thing I liked most about this film however was its cinematography, every frame was composed perfectly. Remanicant of the style of Wes Andrson Populaire was beautiful from start to finish so much so I found my self forgetting to even read the subtitles and just enjoying the spectacle.

Lala land review

I have now been to the cinema to watch LaLaLand twice - its already a classic

Directed by Damien Chazelle it is unlike any other film in recent years reminiscent of singing in the rain and New york new york, this film is a welcome break from war, space and killing. La la land is a film about ambition under the glare of Hollywood. Set to a fantastic original score by Justin Herwitz Chazelles unique style of directing fits perfectly with the musical genre.

The Danish Girl

Review

The other day I watched Tom Hoopers film the Danish Girl the heart breaking story of Einar Wegener Eddie Redmayne who has one of the first sex change operations. The Film fellowship wife Gerda played by Alicia Vikanders  journey to acceptance. Never having watched one of Hoopers films before I was immediately struck by the beauty of each set and location.  

The Imitation Game

The Revenant

ReviewDirector Alejandro Gonzalez InarrituCinematography : Emanuael LubezkiBox office : 533 million USD

Revenant - a person who has returned, especially supposedly from the dead.

This film is carried by one sole protagonist Hug Glass an American pioneer, played by Leonardo DiCaprio throughout the course of the film we watch him STRUGGLE.  This film was all shouting natural light a directorial decision I appreciate as it gives the film a raw untouched wild quality, many scene are almost pics black with just a glimmer of firelight, it dosent matter though as it added to the tension.
