Britain’s King George VI (Colin Firth) struggles with an embarrassing stutter for years until he seeks help from unorthodox Australian speech therapist Lionel Logue (Geoffrey Rush). Netflix , IMDB Director: Tom Hooper STC Genre : Rites of Passage “Life Problem” – an embarrassing stutter “Wrong Way” – denying the deep psychological roots and trying to solve it mechanically “Acceptance” – literally accepting Lionel as a member of his family The movie is truly remarkable in many ways. First, it is a great modern movie that holds up strong without any crutches like sex or violence. The story itself is simple yet so powerful it keeps you on the edge. Acting is awesome. Score is all classical and absolutely beautiful – who would have thought it can work so well in a 21st century movie? Camera work is bold and I’d say experimental at times. For instance, a great use of “fish eye” lens to show the emotional sta...

In this meditation on the need for passion and human connection — the final film in Krzysztof Kieslowski’s “three colors” trilogy — an accident brings together two very different people: Valentine (Irene Jacob), a model, and Joseph (Jean-Louis Trintignant), a retired judge. Netflix , IMDB Director: Krzysztof Kieslowski STC Genre : Out of the Bottle “Wish” – a wish for connection, true love, something that never happened in the old man’s life “Spell” – in a weird way, he’s reliving his life again in a different way through another man “Lesson” – learning what really matters A classic of sort, this is a slow “savoring the moment” meditative story of love and fate, right and wrong, life and death. It seems, the director tried to use the least amount of action to get the point across, and make you think on your own. Who’s right? What’s really happening? You decide. Take yo...

Ex-con Marv (Mickey Rourke) avenges a hooker’s (Jaime King) death, Detective Dwight (Clive Owen) gets involved with hazardous vixens and a rogue cop (Bruce Willis) becomes hell-bent on saving a stripper (Jessica Alba) from a rapist (Nick Stahl) in interlaced stories adapted from Frank Miller’s graphic novels. Netflix , IMDB Directors: Frank Miller, Robert Rodriguez STC Genre : Superhero “Special Power” – virtually everyone is a superman (or a superwoman, for that matter), often in their own unique way “Nemesis” – again, everyone has their own, unique enemy “Curse” – plenty of that stuff. Just read the tittle again 🙂 Very cool modern film noir that is so faithful to the comic book style you have to see it to believe it. The fast-action story line, violence, sex, and other very primal attributes may be debatable for some, and certainly not for kids. However, what impressed me most is the way it is shot and styled. It is la...
