Midnight in Paris (2011)
A masterpiece from a true genius
Truly a fascinating movie, caries like dream up until the end. Most would recognize themselves, trying to escape reality and go back to a "golden era".. apart from the notorious and less notorious characters portrayed in the '20s, this movie gives a lot to think about, and delivers many emotions to the passionate watcher. Its a perfect romantic movie, not necessarily a chick flick, ideal Francophiles, truly enjoyable indeed. Watch it over a glass of wine and possibly with a fireplace warming you... Woody proves again to be a master and is here doing a great job putting together so many nice fragments of time. Is this really such a bad epoca?
Entre tinieblas (1983)
Very unusual, provocative and unpredictable movie
The very fact that you are going to watch nuns snorting cocaine, and even craving for it, should give you an idea of how far Almodovar went to give an alternative view of what a "convent" is in this movie. I watched it in the original language (Spanish)and found it brilliant and extremely entertaining, a very good concentrate of the "early" Almodovar, with His portrayal of a depraved 80's era in Madrid, and His usual intermingling of stories... Also, the viewer is seldom allowed to know what to expect next, and the whole atmosphere in the movie is just so unconventional... Definitely worth watching, hopefully it doesn't lose too much in English..
