Why Dune Part Two is The Best Picture of 2024

I thought I wouldn’t have to, but here we go… I will start saying this: I am not a Sci-Fi guy. While I do respect the Star Wars franchise, withstand massive admiration for Lord of The Rings, and certainly appreciative of Harry Potter’s precision; I’ve never been akin to these type of movies (with the exception of The Empire Strikes Back ,1980 and Return of The Jedi, 1983). All of this to say that I was taken to the theatre involuntarily and without really knowing what to expect. Little did I kno

Eli Fonseca Films: PREACH! I love this technical breakdown, and you have used vivid language to get your point across. The transition into talking about the sound design was seamless. I would love to have heard you praise the plot more and break down some of those narrative elements. Overall, you have made your stance clear and I can feel the passion you have for this movie. It is no doubt a masterpiece!

Comparing Anora to a Bad Bunny Song

Anora x Andrea Amid the accoladed run of one of the best movie’s of the year, along with the arrival of the best hispanic artist’s new album. I couldn’t help but to deep dive in both of these works/artists to find a moving connection between the two - believe or not. This article aims to distinct the similarities between Bad Bunny’s Andrea, from ‘Un Verano Sin Ti’ (2022); and Sean Baker’s Anora 2024, in order to analyze how: through the mastery of their form, they shine light on our protagonists

Lucas Friesen: Andrea is my favourite Bad Bunny song. I'm so glad there's someone else out there that appreciates it like I do! You're right to draw comparisons between these two art pieces. Nice article, especially the "The Similarities" section!

Analyzing the Cinematography in Cleo from 5 to 7 by Agnes Varda

Cleo from 5 to 7 (1962) by Agnes Varda is a masterful film that came out at the pinnacle of the French New Wave movement. Varda makes this her second feature film detailing the afternoon of Cleo; a young famous Pop Star from Paris that after a Tarot card lecture finds out she’s ill and will possibly die. The film follows her canonical afternoon in real time after receiving the news. Agnes Varda thrives through those two hours thanks to the wonderful performance from Corinne Marchand, the magnifi

Gladiator II - Let's Talk About It - (First Watch Reflection)

Before we begin it’s important to mention I watched this on IMAX. Not only I encourage everyone to watch it at the very least in theatres, but truly, you are making a disservice to the movie, and those who worked on it, watching it in anything but the big screen. Furthermore, I did go into the theatre with a sword (my pen), hesitant, and even scared about what I was going to witness. All I can say, it’s a movie. And the movie delivers. Alright, let’s talk about it. While I understand why a sligh

Am I Speed? - The Cars Trilogy Ending - Analysis and Remake

What could have been the greatest closure to one of the greatest animated sequences of all time, fell short because of its aimless ambition, weak character development, and excessive use of cliche/cheap storytelling techniques, that may perhaps have worked for its audience, but would ultimately hurt those true fans that saw McQueen come up back in 06'. From old Radiator Springs, to Europe, to Thomasville, to Florida, and finally to Radiator Springs, again. Lighting McQueen (voiced by Owen Wilson

Gen Z Film Student Reflects on 'The Passion of Joan of Arc'

Like nothing you’ve ever seen before; The Passion of Joan of Arc, is the ultimate movie, it’s a motion picture, that will and has stood to the passage of time. Carl T. Dreyer’s 1920’s film is a masterful demonstration of the power of the film language in its full capacity. The film achieves both the technical perfection of the seventh art along with the impactful emotional relatability we seek when indulging in the realm of cinema. He does this by telling us the last part of the story of Joan of

The Mise-En-Scéne Inside Wong Kar Wai’s ‘Corridor Glance’ Scene

‘The Corridor Glance’ in In The Mood For Love by Wong Kar Wai portrays both protagonists; Ms. Chan, wearing a fine, tight dress, walking alone through the dimly light, tight streets of deep Hong Kong. She, however, seems desolated, exhausted of the constant noise surrounding the city. Meanwhile; Mr. Chow, is presented as a fine gentleman as well, wearing his suit and tie, hair slicked back, and a newspaper copy in hand. Nevertheless, he looks just as drained; from his laborious endeavours and wo
