Last few:
1. Daughters of Evil (aka Filhas do Fogo) 1977- atmospheric but disjointed 70's Portugese psychological horror. A bit deriviative of other films like "The Haunting of Julia" which came out same year.
2. Tiresia (2002)- Love the work of Bertrand Bonello and the way he collides almost pornographic material with more serious (or pretentious) matters is quite stunning at times. His masterpiece is still "House of Tolerance" tho!
3. Flowers of War (2012)- Holy crap a good film when I was expecting something sub par. Zhang Yimou hasn't lost it. Also features one helluva great, long tracking shot that begins with tension and ends in misery.
4. Ballet 422 (2015)- reviewed for publication at
www.DallasFilmNow.com documentary that simply observes the process of creating a ballet. Sounds boring, but for a neophyte such as myself, I found it interesting.
5. Da Sweet Blood of Jesus (2014)- not one of Spike Lee's best, but still worth watching because its Lee and it looks great. Remake of "Ganja and Hess" if that motivates anyone.
6. It Happened In Broad Daylight (1958)- great, little-seen German film about the hunt for a serial killer. Covers the "M" murders, but done from the POV of the detective. Nice little crime procedural. can be found on torrents.
7. Night Across the Street (2012)- Sometimes I wonder if director Raoul Ruiz is just that much smarter than me or he's pulling my chain. I never quite "understand" any of his films and this one is dense, obscure and full of quotes about everything from literature to folklore.
8. Focus (2015)- Another obligation for print media work. I try to go into every film with a sense of anticipation, and "Focus" is okay, but nothing more. Forgettable fluff.
9. Burned Barns (1973)- Bland, dreary and completely uninvolving. Saad since its caliber of stars includes Alain Delon, Simone Signoret and Miou-Miou
10. Serena (2015)- Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence re team for a western drama. I believe I can't write about it until the embargo for reviews lifts. I've seen it though!
