What an incredibly insightful portrayal of the “top out of sight” community. Those privately secluded American families with no interest in media exposure. Who have comfortable luxury and seek no attention, only when their private affairs turn sordid. In which case, it is typical media fare for journalists to extend what only, say, an […]

‘Indiscrete’ (1958) Film Review
What is a spoiled woman to do? The one that has it all, even by today’s opulent standards. That pied-a-terre in London – far removed from the hastiness of New York City (why smudge a wrinkle over that old hag?), onto that polite society of a good older sister caring for her, in trying to […]

‘Get Out’ (2017) Film Review
Get Out (2017) Film Review In a Nation that still experiences a division of railroad tracks, creating a separation of families to the point of extreme polarity, despite the efforts of the youth to cross those rails, there is still that pretentious overindulgence in trying to get along. An almost cajoling toil to act […]

‘Starman’ (1984) Film Review
In the bionic cybernetic depiction of the life form collecting “data” – or more accurately with nature, sample points to construct feedback loops with – it is in the angry hostilities that aflame at the slightest of moments. It is in this effort at connecting, which is not saccharine in its posturing of that […]

‘On the Waterfront’ (1954) Film Review
What does a man need to do to get a warm meal? Or better, yet, a means of moving up? Moving up from? In the tension of a hard-day’s work with the reality of the possibility of leaving one’s station, onto that higher ground from pigeon telecommuting, from being plucked daily to physically […]

‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’ (2014) Film Review
What an amazing cinematic experience of richness in diorama. It is this visual idea to film that Mr. Anderson propels in an appetizing direction; towards an American dream of a kleptocratic necroscopy – yet remaining vividly alive with that quintessential mirth, aged well. The plot has much ado about property. And the conniving towards […]

‘Dune’ (1984 AD) Film Review
In a futuristic alternative universe, there is a significant cosmogenic reduction to its galactic moving parts, unto the arrival of a mythical realization of what is otherwise a permanent stasis of earthling affairs. It is a Judaeo-Christian homage. It is a wonderful picture, with that upmost significance in enlightening the mind of futuristic […]

‘Woman of Straw’ (1964) Film Review
What to do with a family that promotes such malfeasance in human form? What to make of a character that is obnoxiously rich, and enjoys the downpour of his earnings power in the twilight of his corporal experience by being a dirty bastard towards his help? To make such obscene gestures with regards to the […]

‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ Film Review
In a spectacle that is delightful for all ages, a healthy medium of the childishly innocent with the practically knowable tendencies of evil-doing brings out a cinematic performance which is par excellence. It is in this perspective of originality in considering cartoons as performers with real lives on the side which helps illuminate an imagination […]

‘One Eyed Jacks’ Movie Review
Marlon Brando introduces an impeccable storyline which thoroughly introduces the concept of the Liar to Western Cinema in his Western One Eyed Jacks. Unambivalent about portraying himself as a villain, a lousy reckless fiend who has a way with getting his way (both with men by gun and woman by pleasure), Mr. Brando moves the […]
