  Apocalypse Now 1979

  ★★★★★ Rewatched 15 Mar 2025

  A whole different thing after reading Heart of Darkness. The most pretensious movie ever, love it.

  No Other Land 2024

  ★★★½ Watched 08 Mar 2025

  "Witnessing is the most effective defense people have against occupation, and the Israeli military, like all thieves, wilts in the face of being watched. The footage is out there, and it’s rarely been assembled into a more concise, powerful, and damning array than it is here. Now it only has to be seen." - D. Erlich.

  Promising Young Woman 2020

  ★★★ Watched 28 Feb 2021

  Eu gosto das cores, do elenco, da música, da edição, mas tenho um pequeno problema com a tentativa da mensagem que quis passar, pareceu muito superficial.

  É um pouco chocante, sim. Mas eu senti que estava mais chocado por lembrar de ter ouvido sobre casos parecidos do que pelo que estava sendo mostrado em cena.

  Apesar de eu não ter odiado o final, sinto que faltou uma catarse, um momento de esperança. Na verdade, podia não ter me dado nada…

  Red Desert 1964

  ★★★★ Watched 20 Feb 2025

  A change of city, sex, drugs, children, cheating, a new job, become a workaholic - all as answers to the alienation that the modern world created that doesn’t allows us to connect on a more human level. And if you're crazy enough to say something or to imagine a different kind of life for yourself, they will tell you that you need to "readjust to reality" and that you "mustn't thing about such things".

  Not the best of Antonioni's works, but the most simple and effective at showing what he has to say about this reality. Maybe it's better to just live in fiction.
