It's disturbing. It is really disturbing! This film starts as a black, but somehow endearingly, whimsical comedy and ends in a bitterly evil something that is much more like a horror film than anything you expect before. You get really scared to death of how this abysmally depressing story will go on. (Ohh I was so fucking scared of that old scary woman.) The film got me emotionally to that level, that I couldn't helped myself without the need to…

Cloudbusting 1985
Incredibly beautiful song! On the occasion of Donald Sutherland's passing, the plot even has a very interesting metaphorical double meaning, and it gives the short film definitly a few extra emotional points that it didn't had before. I had often noticed Sutherland positively. Frankly, I rarely liked the majority of his characters but he was always able to trigger something inside of me thanks to his way of acting and his choice for roles. I should definitely get to know a few more of his films.
(I hope the film will stay here on Letterboxd. 🙏🙄)

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.
Nette kleine Geschichte über einen einsamen Typen, der mit Glücksspiel verzweifelt versucht irgendwie das Geld für eine lebensverlängernde Operation seines Hundes zu bekommen. Am stärksten ist eigentlich der Soundtrack. Vom Schauspiel ist das stellenweise zwar ein wenig gekünstelt, unterm Strich aber nicht allzu dramatisch. Letzten Endes hat die Geschichte auch ein Happy End, was emotional zwar auch ganz hübsch ist, aber eigentlich auf fragwürdige Weise Glücksspiel verherrlicht.

An Old Fashioned Love Story: Making 'The Bridges of Madison County' 2008
Especially as a guy who wants to study film in the future it's so enormously interesting what were said about the style how Eastwood directed this feature. The same can be said about how he interacted with the people of the departments Photography, Editing, Production Design, Screenwriting and Production. Very inspiring!! ☺
