We Need to Talk About Kevin 2011

★★★½ Watched 18 Jan 2023

Quite effective in presenting an uncomfortable and absolutely zero pretentious concept. Tilda is magical representing impulsiveness and despair.

Bones and All 2022

The Silence of the Lambs filled my expectations. The beauty of this film, among many other things, falls on the naturalness of Jodie Foster and Sir Anthony Hopkins. Their performances don't need melancholy scenes where they demonstrate a thousand emotions to win an Oscar. On the contrary, subtle looks and smart dialogues are enough so that the characters protrude and remain icons for the history of cinema. Excellent in every way.
