Ant #226. Coyote Ugly.

When I was a teenager, I watched the movie "Coyote Ugly".
It was a crap actually, but the soundtrack was pretty good and I fell in love with one song.
It's stupid, but so romantic!
Let's sing it together!

Ant #127. Evil Dead (2013)

OH MY GOODNESS!
I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!
One of my favorite horrors ever will get a second life! Next year!

Evil Dead (2013), remake

If you're my friend, you probably heard these stories from me how I was deathly scared watching all 3 films of "Evil Dead" on VHS.
Yeah, in the beginning of 90s we didn't have DVDs. )))
I was 5 years old, when my girl next door gave me a cassete.
I asked my sister (6 yo) to watch it with me. Ooooh, it was a long night))))
Then I was watching it again and again, I couldn't stop, I loved it!

And yes, my parents had no idea about what was I watching )))

So...  This is a trailer! Enjoy!

Ant #75. What is love?

Yesterday I've seen a mexican movie that calls "Amores Perros".
"A horrific car accident connects three stories, each involving characters dealing with loss, regret, and life's harsh realities, all in the name of love."

The film itself is so-so. I liked the idea about connection, but I wasn't impressed with these three stories. Kinda simple, usual. Though maybe it's their charm.

But what has really impressed me is a slogan of this movie!
"Love is betrayal. Love is anguish. Love is sin. Love is selfish. Love is hope. Love is pain. Love is death. What is love? Love's a bitch."


Brilliance!!!

Ant #68. Austrian film festival.

This week here is going the Austrian film festival. I've chosen 2 movies to watch.

The first one is called "Breathing (Atmen)", which is screening in 45 minutes. A 19-year-old is coming out of prison and trying to build a new life, but he can't deal with his guilt.

The second one, and the most promosing, is "Michael". A drama focused on five months in the life of pedophile who keeps a 10-year-old boy locked in his basement.

It will be more interesting for me in case I'm so against the pedophilia, but I'll try to rate this movie honestly.

Ant #39. W.E. review.

Today I've seen Madonna's "W.E." movie.

All I can say is WOW! 

I knew Madonna wouldn't make a bad thing, but this movie is even better than I was expecting.

It's a brilliant mix of amazing acting, great camerawork, wonderful vision and sound effects and, of course, very smart directing.

My best impressions are all about Andrea Riseborough. She acts her role awesome. I looked at her and I believed everything she said or did. So true emotions, so many passions she's enclosed in Wallis. How she danced, how she smoked, how she cried... Just undescribably!

Before I first heard about Madonna planning to film the movie, I had no idea about the story of the King Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson. All I knew was he gave up his throne for her, for a woman he loved. 

They told about it in every interview or article. 

But noone said about Wallis! And I think it's a big mistake of everyone who wrote a review.

Yes, Edward has refused his power, his crown, his position in a society. But was anyone thinking about what she has refused? Wallis gave up all her life! Before she met him, she was rich enough, she had a very influential friends, she had a husband who loved her more than his life, she had everything what a lot of women could only dream of. And what she got? The whole world's hatred, the exile from the country, the life under paparazzi's camera, the need to always be worrying.

So who made a bigger sacrifice? To me it's obvious. 

During the movie I couldn't stop admiring to her. She was so strong, so purposeful...

She loved Edward and she knew that if she (only she) would let them be together, her normal life full of happiness will be destroyed. And she chose her love! She knew she had to stay with him till the end (she wrote about her feelings in letters) and she stood with him even understanding how hurt it will be for her. Edward was just a silly enamoured man, but Wallis was a brave self-denying woman who had everything in her hands. Only she could change their both lives forever and she had enough boldness to do it. She took all the responsibility.

And Edward answered her with the biggest love on the Earth. Till the end, till the last breath he loved her more than his life. And when he was dying, he asked her to dance for him. He loved her dancing... till the last breath.

I found some similarities between me and Wallis. I was in the same situation when only I could save our relationship and turn our mutual dreams into the truth. But I couldn't do that. I'm not so strong as "the most despised woman in the world".

So do W.E believe in love now? I do.

Ant #25. A Single Man.

Tonight I've been watching a film by Tom Ford "A Single Man".

The story about the guy whose love has died in a car accident. He's been left lonely on the Earth. He had nobody to live for and he started to destroy himself... Step by step. Not only physically, but emotionally. He was dreaming about death, he planned a suicide.

In the end he understood that he had to survive, the life is not over, there are many things, people, emotions he hasn't felt yet. But it was too late. The heart attack said NO.

Well... Wanna know what I'm thinking about?
During the movie I wanted to switch it off.
I've lost my love as well. Maybe the biggest love in my life. But I'm not gonna die. I don't lose my faith in love. I deserve to be loved... if not by you, so by someone else.

Tears, pain, sadness are degrading you.
Alcohol, cigarettes, drugs are degrading you.


You think that I can't live without your love... You'll see...

Ant #11. Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows.

Today I've been in the cinema and seen the "Sherlock Holmes: A Game Of Shadows" movie.
What can I say? I liked it!
I was impressed with the first film, but this one is even better.
It's funny, interesting, gorgeous. Director's finds are stunning. Actors's play is delightful!

I liked the scenes in the forest with all the slow moves, blasts, falls. And the second my fav episode is in the end, the ball in the castle. I liked how Guy Ritchie tried to reconstruct the epoch. Well done!

So my opinion about movie, it is 10/10.

I recommend to all my friends to watch this movie.

Ant #9. Madonna's "Masterpiece".

If you were the Mona Lisa
You'd be hanging in the Louvre
Everyone would come to see you
You'd be impossible to move
It seems to me is what you are
A rare and priceless work of art
Stay behind your velvet rope
But I will not renounce all hope

And I'm right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with the masterpiece
Cause after all
Nothing's indestructible

From the moment I first saw you
All the darkness turned to light
An impressionistic painting
Tiny particles of light
It seem to me is what you're like
The "look but please don't touch me" type
And honestly it can't be fun
To always be the chosen one

And I'm right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with a masterpiece
Cause after all
Nothing's indestructible
Nothing's indestructible
Nothing's indestructible
Nothing's indestructible

And I'm right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with a masterpiece

And I'm right by your side
Like a thief in the night
I stand in front of a masterpiece
And I can't tell you why
It hurts so much
To be in love with a masterpiece
Cause after all
Nothing's indestructible
Cause after all
Nothing's indestructible

Ant #3. Horrors.

I don't understand people which think I'm sick because I like horrors.
Yes, I do really like them.
When I watch horrors, I realize my life is not so bad.
Besides, I can feel a fear which I can't feel in my everyday existence.
The fear fills my blood with hormones of pleasure, I forget about everything.

So right now I'm gonna watch the classical one... "The Shining" (1980).
