Movie Micro Blog
With the ever expanding options to watch movies, both online and offline, I lost sight of what I watched and what my impressions were. So I started a micro blog to keep track of them.
-
Werckmeister harmóniák (Werkmeister Harmonies)
The old, naked dude standing in the bathtub says it's better to put the piano back to how it was.
-
Hrútar (Rams)
Beards, sweaters and sheep.
-
La gomera (The Whistlers)
Whistling at a woman that is an equal amongst wolfs.
-
Vanskabte land (Godland)
A country so empty, they never even bothered to invent the umbrella.
-
Masculin féminin (Masculine Feminine)
The high school scrapbook I wanted to be part of when I was young.
-
Trois couleurs: Rouge (Three Colors: Red)
Six stones and seven puppies. That also probably means something.
-
Sweat
Fitgirl with a family.

À nos amours
You will always have your family.
-
Oldeuboi (Oldboy)
Revenge is a dish best served ...alive?
-
Trois couleurs: Blanc (Three Colors: White)
Broken porcelain can be glued, but you will still see the cracks.
-
Až přijde kocour (When the Cat Comes)
Red is for lovers, yellow for the unfaithful, purple for the hypocrites... What was gray for again?
-
L'innocent (The Innocent)
Acting lessons from ex-convicts are the best.
-
Only Angels have Wings
Tough guys that fly planes. Like Top Gun, but here the hero wears a sombrero.
-
The Banshees of Inisherin
Never lay a finger on another mans donkey.
-
La double vie de Véronique (The Double Life of Véronique)
A nice thing about dreams: your muse can have a spare.
-
Gilda
With that woman on your mind, you just can't think straight. The writers apparently had the same problem, the plot goes to nowhere.
-
Presque (Beautiful Minds)
Feelgood with dead, disabled and philosophy.
-
Blinkende lygter (Flickering Lights)
Trigger. Happy. Family.
-
Everything Everywhere All at Once
The Matrix as a Chinese comedy, never thought that would be that boring.
-
Sevmek Zamani (Time to Love)
When it comes to this film, pretty pictures alone are not enough.
-
Átame! (Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!)
Little scuba diver goes brrrrzzt.
-
Mulholland Drive
The 4K restoration did not change anything. Still the best movie ever.
-
Les coquillettes
Like she said: the same noise as when my boyfriend brushes his teeth. But then on a festival. In France. In the nineties.
-
Triangle of Sadness
Like the world it mocks, over the top and a bit boring at the same time.
-
White Noise
Casually strolling down the supermarket aisles, enjoying life, ignoring sounds.
-
Rien à foutre (Zero Fucks Given)
Like her mother, she should have stayed on the ground longer.
-
Darling
When papering over emptyness, better bring a lot of magazines.
-
Ye Che (Night Train)
Combining justice with love is a hard thing. Let alone in the middle of a rigid concrete desert.
-
The Angels' Share
Starts off raw and confronting, with a lot of dirt in the nose, but it ends so fairytale sweet that it feels like sipping from an entirely different blend.
-
Joaquim
The jungle, like foreign occupation, is a messy affair with lots of pests.
-
Vortex
Yes, old age is miserable and boring. You made your point.
-
Lo sono l'amore (I Am Love)
Cut your hair and dream of crayfish. Or become a lesbian. Whatever works.
-
Fumer fait tousser (Smoking Causes Coughing)
No, no, the womanizing, green acid drooling rat is not part of the scary story. But I can tell you a scary story if you want. Do you?
-
Begike (Runner)
Better put that dog on a leash. Otherwise you'll keep running all day.
-
Emily the Criminal
A very smooth slide into crime.
-
L'argent (L'Argent)
Beware of people who casually slip crumpled paper in the pockets of their jackets. Beware of everyone.
-
La femme au couteau (The Woman With a Knife)
Psychology made of wood. Maybe the knife was meant for carving.
-
Tenéis que venir a verla (You Have to Come and See it)
Philosophy is a wild garden, where you can sit and piss.
-
R.M.N.
Analysing your town's internals with an annoying hum.
-
El castillo de la pureza (Castle of Purity)
Rat poison makes you impotent.
-
Competencia official (Official Competition)
A bit simple and a bit cliche. Like all good entertainment.
-
An (Sweet Bean)
Standard recipe that is way too sweet. But It's from Japan, so it tastes slightly less bad than it sounds.
-
Honja Saneun Saramdeul (Aloners)
Thank you for choosing this film. We hope the ending was not surprising.
-
Trois couleurs: Bleu (Three Colours: Blue)
So full of symbolism, she even forgot that she is scared of mice.
-
La notte (La Notte)
Two unhappy people wander through a day and a night, go to a party. Somehow it is less engaging than it sounds.
-
Sundown
A man sits on a beach, drinks beer and says nothing. Sounds deep, but it's just cancer.
-
Les rendez-vous de Paris (Rendez-vous in Paris)
They thought adding a lot of summer, Paris and cute students would make the dialogue, script and acting irrelevant. They were wrong.
-
Heojil kyolshim (Decision to Leave)
Starts of clean, like the detective, but gets murkier and murkier along the way.
-
Matka Joanna od Aniolów (Mother Joan of the Angels)
Crackling black and white about good and evil. And lust.
