Director's Style
In here, you can find articles I wrote about the style of various of my favourite directors (up until now I have only written about Damien Chazelle):
The Academy Awards - Ranking of Best Picture Nominees This year was the first year I managed to watch all the Best Picture nominees before the ceremony, and so, I decided to rank them and writing a little something about each of them. I'll rank them from the one I least liked to the one I most liked. 8 - Bohemian Rhapsody - directed by Bryan Singer Bohemian Rhapsody is one of the most underwhelming films I have seen this year. There is almost no cinematic value in this film, with sloppy editing, terrible directing and horrible writing. This is a film clearly just made to pander to Queen fans, with no depth given to it. It's a complete disservice to the legacy and life of Freddie Mercury and it reaches a point where it's almost offensive in its lack of depth. It's a perfect example of how Hollywood mishandles LGBTQ stories for their own profit. It's certainly appalling how it's nominated for Best Picture. The only reason it's nominated is probab...
Happy as Lazzaro - A Lost Innocence Is innocence possible in our modern world? Is it a dangerous or irresponsible act? Is it lost in the past? In a simpler time? Did we lose our naiveté? These are the questions that may be raised by this magical and heartfelt tale. We see it through a dreamlike, almost childish, yet realist atmosphere masterfully crafted by Alice Rohrwacher and her playful directing style. We plunge into a beautiful and humane vision of the world that questions the way we find ourselves nowadays. In a breath of fresh air, Rohrwacher shows us a unique vision of our world and invites us to evaluate what is happening to it - a world where innocence is an endangered species, a world where the innocent man is a lone wolf in the midst of a dark industrial jungle. This tale is divided into two parts set in two different times, with one part set in the idyllic countryside and the other set in the decadent city. It begins in the past, in an isolated pastoral v...
Sex Education - A Modern Take on Sex Netflix's original series never disappoints. In a time when there seems to be so much awkwardness surrounding the theme of sexual education, Laurie Nunn comes around with a refreshing new look at this sensitive subject that is human sexuality. In an incredibly well-written comedy series that has a very John Hughes feel to it, making it strangely anachronistic yet modern, we are invited to reflect on various issues ranging from abortion to homophobia in an exceptionally mature way, with such compassion for the various characters that make up this quirky story. I usually write about films, but TV series are no less deserving of being written about, especially one as intelligently crafted as Sex Education . This is not only a series about sex. It's a very necessary and modern take on sex of all ages and orientations. It's talking about sex the way it should be talked about. We are introduced to this series by the most proper way to...
