“I suffered like an animal but I enjoyed like an animal”
Was Almodovar directing this via Zoom or something? Dunno if the new Pedro is a short drama film where Tilda Swinton is doing some serious lazy acting or an insufferable 30-minute product placement device. A prime example of a brilliant director misfiring in a foreign land.
There's a scene in #ThingsToCome where Isabelle Huppert watch Juliette Binoche at the movies, and if this isn't Magic then I don't know what is.
Beyond everything, L'avenir merge two cinematic delights: philosophy and Isabelle Huppert. Magnificent.
In The Kindergarten Teacher, Maggie Gyllenhaal is perfect. Perfect enough for me. Her gift melts within every frame. It’s almost like a sign from God.
