Tulip Fever

Alicia Vikander 00:34:00
Usually, when we have bad intentions, the outcome will eventually bite us back. You cannot pretend forever that you are different than in reality. Do you keep appearances just to save the marriage, work or your personal life? Do you hide behind the veil of enthusiasm, desire or interests that are not entirely yours? Temptations lead us to disasters or turn our lives...

The Little Death

animals 07:38:00
Missionary position for the purpose of procreation can be a slogan promoted by the Church, however, many members of the Church proved over the years that it is not their favorite. Some people like sophisticated games, role-plays, sadomasochism, porn, toys or mind-bending positions. Some like call girls, domination, and vulnerability. It's difficult to blame others for stretching a little bit away from the...

It

abuse 09:31:00
PrevNext
When we are children it's enough to listen to a scary story to make us wet our beds, sleep with our parents or avoid basements, attics, and cemeteries for years. When we are adults we either try to overcome our phobias or try to hide them, feeling ashamed of our weaknesses in the reasonable world of work and family life. But the game...

Lolita

crime 01:32:00
We are all guilty of some crime. Weren't you fantasizing about your teachers from the safe space of you class desk? Haven't you stolen someone's friend, boyfriend or girlfriend, turning this person later on into your best friend or the love of your life? Haven't you been in a relationship that was disapproved by your family, community, and your closest friends? Didn't you...

The Book of Henry

abuse 09:06:00
Kids are very often wittier and more responsible than their parents. They can also notice things that adults are too blinded to pay attention to. Adults are lured by the respect, they don't suspect that someone who has a good job and is known for years in the social circles of acceptance can engage in terrible crimes. And then grown-ups are likely to...

Batman Returns

action 07:51:00
What makes a perfect villain? Why all of a sudden you hate so much that you want to destroy everybody else? Why years of humiliation bring about the worst in people and deprive them of their conscience? My two favorite villain characters: Catwoman: an assistant not appreciated by the bossy dishonest boss and the Penguin: a child rejected by his parents for appalling...

M. Butterfly

acting 00:50:00
Is love just an illusion? Does it allow you to be blinded, to not see what can be easily seen by others? Is it just a game which makes you besotted with the concept and far away from seeing the truth? In the oriental world of Chinese changing policy, in the realm of businesses and goods exchange, there was a man who fell...

Transylvania 6-5000

black comedy 09:43:00
You know with these monster creatures, they have been known for centuries and you cannot be really sure if they are real or just a figment of someone's imagination. Possibly they appeared in your dreams, were part of your complex doll and Lego blocks games, or were the characters of horror books and gothic tales which you read holding a torch under a...

Tanna

civilization 03:00:00
Imagine you wake up one day without your daily dose of entertainment, you have no clothes to compare with your friends, there's no fast food restaurant that you can pop in and satisfy your cravings. Imagine that you opposed the rules of civilization, the temptations of money and the change of culture. Imagine that you are a part of the tribe. Can pristine...

Death Becomes Her

acting 00:47:00
When I was growing up it was Gemma Ward, Lily Cole and Natalia Vodianova whom we admired for beauty and figure. All of them grew up, some devoted their lives to motherhood others can be still seen in the spotlight. The next generation came with Instagram sensations: Gigi and Bella Hadid, Kendall Jenner, plus size beauties and Disney stars. Let's wait ten years...

What Happened to Monday

action 23:37:00
The rise of the world population is now a fact. There are going to be more and more people. Remember this year and count us in twenty, thirty or fifty years from now. Will there be enough food to feed each and every mouth, will we have enough resources to heat our houses, start cars and public transport, and finally will there be...

The Sixth Sense

accident 00:59:00
Death is inevitable. Is sure like taxes. She will meet all of us one special day, whether unexpected or long awaited. And the thin line between the known and the unknown will be crossed to welcome us to a different reality. Will it be heaven or hell? Maybe there will be emptiness, nothingness, and void. Maybe there will be another life, another possibility...

On the nature of pictures

*Every Google image belongs to someone and this someone should be noted. However, if pictures are scenes from the film they most probably belong to owners of the film/producers. I use saved screens of the Google compilation of pictures, thus the pictures of pictures, which I take, cut and edit myself (as a derivative use). They are used for reviewing purposes (fair use), not for diminishing the films' profits by stealing what rightly belongs to them. Copyright is tricky, let's get used to it.
