This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

imagine being a lady from the olden times and you have to wear a corset and you've never even seen a man but all of a sudden colin farrell won't leave your fucking house and that causes complicated sexual feelings and you don't even know what masturbation is so you decide fighting your friends for a man is something a self-loving woman would do... that's sad huh...
Review by davidehrlich ★★★★½ 16

Between “The Virgin Suicides” and “Marie Antoinette,” it was already quite clear that Sofia Coppola loves watching Kirsten Dunst struggle to make peace with some kind of purgatory. In “The Beguiled,” the mustiest and most conventionally entertaining film of Coppola’s brilliant career, Dunst is once again cast as a woman with so much to give and nowhere to go, but this is the first of her characters who actually has a legitimate hope of escaping from her limbo.
Alas, peace can be hard to come by in the middle of a war, and freedom even harder. And if Edwina Dabney wants to get herself out of the Confederacy, she might have to let the Union inside first.
Ruthlessly shorn from…

Review by brat pitt ★★★★ 5

"Is he dead?"
"No. Not yet."
Much more playful & much less suspenseful than the trailer would lead you to believe. By telling this story through the eyes of the women, Coppola is able to milk the comedy of the situation. I mean, imagine being a young, chaste girl with very little exposure to men, and then Colin fucking Farrell suddenly shows up in your home. Not to mention he's injured, weak, and seemingly downright pleasant.
Of course, nothing is ever this simple. We know going into this film, as it is a retelling of the eponymous 1966 novel, that this is not going to end well. These "vengeful bitches" add a femininity (in the conventional sense of the word) to…

sofia coppola has outdone herself. truly the most beautiful film of the year so far, fucking terrifying and tense with insanely brilliant performances. so perfectly paced and composed, I can't stop shaking.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

colin farrell gets drunk, walks into the main room on crutches with a revolver, screams at a group of women including little girls, shoots a chandelier and when one of the kids says "stop shouting you're scaring my turtle" he straight up picks the fucking thing up and tosses it across the room then limps back out. then literally seconds later, kristen dunst follows him out the room and they fuck on the floor of his bedroom, while the girl is probably still crying over her dead turtle. this movie is so fucking funny

Sam described this to me as "Castle Anthrax the movie" and unfortunately that is so funny to me I am incapable of coming up with my own review, sorry y'all
Review by svesper ★★

从被锯腿起节奏突变完全是另一部戏使我不得质疑是不是看了删减版，然而并没有…前面重复出现的空镜和摄影其实都挺带感的，只能说导演失误剪辑失控，而且焦虚的一逼……浪费好演员了。

Estaba acostumbrado a que Soffia Coppola construya sus personajes con sufrimiento o infelicidad dentro de un contexto o escenario que algunos podrían decir de en sueño-envidia. La película sobre Maria Antoniette es el ejemplo más notorio de esto, de cómo vive la vida que no quiere y como esto la atormenta, pero hace unos años estrenó una nueva película de época, pero con una nueva fórmula, distinta a toda su filmografía
Ambientada en la guerra civil en Estados Unidos, en un internado de mujeres, un cabo de apellido Mcburney es encontrado por una de las niñas internas de esta escuela, ella lo lleva a la casa con todas las demás. Las internas tienen curiosidad por saber quién es, pero la…

how is this sofia coppola's most good-looking film but also the most unseeable???
Review by Victor Castro ★★★★

A Coppola consegue construir perfeitamente toda essa atmosfera conservadora. A chegada do Cabo não é apenas a chegada de uma pessoa qualquer, é quase como se estivessem trazendo uma certa liberdade para elas, não so sexual, mas uma liberdade para se portarem de maneira mais livre.
Ele desperta sentimentos nelas que elas nem sequer imaginavam, ou não queriam, ter.
O problema é o terceiro ato, onde o filme dá uma boa caida, a Sofia não consegue construir a tensão da mesma maneira que ela conseguiu fazer todo o resto. Mas em geral, é um otimo filme.

SCAVENGER HUNT DAY 29: A movie with the same director as your favourite scavenger hunt find
This is intensely dark and simmering with tension. There's a constant ambience - rustling trees, chirping birds - which as the film progresses becomes more and more overbearing, and the dim, candle-lit shots sometimes get held for oppressively long times without moving, pinning the viewer down. The framings and arrangement of characters and settings is sublime - this movie's got the palette and composition and detail of an oil painting, and like the figures in a painting, the characters are held in a limbo, with each emotion and each moment of panic being drawn out and held an impossibly long time. They feel trapped,…
