"The Ron Clark Story": The Radiant Image of Teacher

"The Ron Clark Story" (2006) is a TNT television movie starring Matthew Perry, based on the true story of American teacher Ron Clark. The film focuses on Clark's journey to New York City, where he teaches at an underprivileged school in a predominantly African American neighborhood. It narrates his dedication and efforts in transforming the worst-performing class into the best in the school. Ron Clark entered the teaching profession somewhat unexpectedly. His varied experiences and energetic, in

"It's Not Me": A Kind of Film We Need

As the credits rolled on 'It's Not Me' (2024), a few audience members chose to leave. Throughout the film, I found myself trying to decipher Leos Carax's unique editing logic, believing that understanding it would unveil the film's essence. But much like watching Jean-Luc Godard's "The Image Book" (2018) years ago, this film's logic remained elusive. As the credits ended and staff came in to clean, a puppet show suddenly captured everyone's attention, drawing the audience back to their seats. Th

'Priscilla': Empowerment Through Fashion, Challenging the Patriarchal Myth

This isn't an Elvis film; it's a film that challenges the myth of Elvis. If you seek to experience the grandeur of Elvis Presley, Baz Luhrmann's "Elvis" (2022) is the movie to watch. However, audiences should not expect any celebration of the superstar or lamentation of a tragic love story in "Priscilla" (2023). Sofia Coppola's new film "Priscilla" takes a fresh look at the relationship between rock legend Elvis Presley and his former wife, Priscilla Presley, through her perspective, delving int

Celine Dion: When a Diva Loses Control Over Her Voice and Body

On June 21, Amazon premiered the documentary "This Is It: Celine Dion." Initially, the film was intended to document the legendary singer's preparations for another global tour. Instead, it starkly reveals what happens when a superstar loses control over her voice and body. 1. Losing Control Three years ago, director Irene Taylor received a call from Celine Dion's manager. At that time, Irene was filming a documentary about Celine's upcoming global tour. The manager's words were alarming: “I hav

Analysis of "Baby Reindeer": Understanding the "Toxic Empathy" Beneath the Tragedy and the True Meaning of the Ending

One's healing and transformation cannot rely excessively on external projection. In other words, Donny cannot always depend on Martha's admiration and reverence. Thankfully, the drink at the end shows us this possibility. When you hear terms like "stalking," "sexual harassment," or "sexual assault," what images first come to mind? Most people might immediately think of a sleazy, violent man and a defenseless woman. These are common stereotypes, or images projected by big data. But what about tho

"The Taste of Things": A Culinary Symphony of Passion

"The Taste of Things" (2023) might be the slowest-burn film among the 2023 art house releases. Director Anh Hung Tran stays true to his signature style, presenting a narrative that's less about the food itself and more about the intricate process of its creation and the environment it inhabits. The film opens at dawn with Eugénie, the protagonist, gathering vegetables for the day’s meals, establishing a rhythm that continues as the day unfolds. The film’s meticulous 20-minute cooking sequence di

'The Story of Adele H': Please Forgive My Feigned Indifference, for I Love You Deeply

My knowledge of the French New Wave cinema is somewhat limited. Though I've seen the hallmark works of François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard, I cannot claim a comprehensive understanding of their contributions within the context of their era. Nonetheless, my lack of expertise remains unshaken by François Truffaut's place in my esteem. His films have a unique sensibility that stands firm even compared to modern masterpieces. Truffaut's seminal film 'The 400 Blows' (1959) ushered in the French New

'The Wolf of Wall Street': Five Key Numbers About the Film

As the 2014 Academy Awards approached, Martin Scorsese's "The Wolf of Wall Street," starring Leonardo DiCaprio, garnered five nominations. While this number may not seem overwhelming, it was still surprising that the film walked away empty-handed on Oscar night. Scorsese's most controversial movie in recent years, its production was one of the most grueling and complex. It's impossible to capture the entire story behind the making of this film in one article. Now, celebrating the tenth anniversa

"Baby Reindeer": A Tale of Human Complexity and Contradiction

Adapted from the personal experiences of its creator and lead, Richard Gadd, Netflix's series "Baby Reindeer" is an emotionally charged narrative that captivates from the outset. Even if the first three episodes provoke frustration and impatience, viewers are inevitably drawn into the story. By the pivotal fourth episode, everything falls into place, engendering empathy for the protagonist. The subsequent episodes evoke a whirlwind of emotions—sighs of relief, heartbreak, anger, exhilaration, an

'Baby Reindeer': A Deep Dive into the Psyche of Those Trapped in Toxic Relationships

"Baby Reindeer" has captivated audiences despite its lack of star power, earning rave reviews for its fresh take on the psychological journey of an abuse victim. It mirrors last year's R-rated dog film "Strays," where the protagonist—a dog—is also trapped in a toxic relationship. Both works focus not on the cruelty of the abuser but on why specific individuals repeatedly fall into these relationships. What makes someone a "Baby Reindeer"? These narratives cleverly sidestep casting women as victi

"Black Hawk Down": An Unmissable Classic War Film

Directed by the renowned American filmmaker Ridley Scott, "Black Hawk Down" is a cinematic masterpiece set against the backdrop of the 1993 Somalia conflict. The film clinched Oscars for Best Sound Mixing and Best Film Editing at the 74th Academy Awards. It vividly portrays the Battle of Mogadishu in 1993, depicting the harrowing ordeal of a combined force of Delta Force and United States Army Rangers engaged in combat against thousands of armed militia in Somalia. As a war film, its gritty depi

"Cabrini": A Lifeless Religious Film

Embraced by QAnon conspiracy theorists, last year's "Sound of Freedom" raked in over $250 million worldwide, thrusting director Alejandro Gómez Monteverde back into the spotlight. Nearly two decades ago, his 2006 debut "Bella" snagged the TIFF People's Choice Award. As an unabashedly conservative Christian agenda-driven filmmaker, Alejandro Gómez Monteverde's latest offering is a dreary, slow-paced biographical drama recounting the late 19th-century Italian nun Francesca Cabrini's (portrayed by

A year later, on the set in London, actor Kingsley Ben-Adir steps out of the subway station, moving purposefully. Bob Marley's son, Ziggy Marley, is pleased. "It's been a year, and he still remembers." During the filming of "Bob Marley: One Love," Kingsley Ben-Adir was closely guided and influenced. This biopic, released on February 14, is considered the most authoritative account of Bob Marley's life. The production involved key figures such as Bob Marley's widow, Rita Marley, and his children

"Priscilla": The Awakening Journey of a Canary

When discussing Hollywood's second generation, Sofia Coppola, daughter of renowned director Francis Ford Coppola, cannot be overlooked. Her path as a director has been remarkably successful, from winning an Oscar for Best Original Screenplay for "Lost in Translation" to receiving the Golden Lion for "Somewhere" and the Best Director title at Cannes for "The Beguiled." While some may attribute her success to her father's influence, her directing and storytelling abilities, as well as her unique a
