Good Freshman Initiation Ideas Involving Alcohol

Somewhere Sofia Coppola
with Stephen Dorff and Elle Fanning

Synopsis
Johnny Marco is a famous author in the sulphurous reputation. He lives at the famous Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles. He will receive an unexpected visitor: her 11 year old daughter.

My opinion
The staging of Sofia Coppola is sober. Sequence of long shots with the camera still. If the scene seems fair, the film is equally so when it comes to describe the dark side of the Hollywood system. While the film is in the delicacy and modesty, but it may be seem boring to some.

Nowhere Boy Sam Taylor-Wood
with Aaron Johnson and Kristin Scott Thomas

Synopsis
John Lennon grew up in a family full of secrets. Raised by his aunt Mimi, he found a teenager his mother, Julia. Does it happen to understand the mystery that has torn the two sisters and that will make this tormented young man finally found his vocation: music.

My opinion
Like many, I know the story of the Beatles but not their "pre-history" in Liverpool. The film is interesting, the careful reconstruction but he missed the "small stuff". Even if the beautiful Aaron Johnson - actor who played in Kick-Ass - has everything to please me! ;-)

My opinion
Attention Women in existential crisis! Even if the story is hardly original, this film finds its strength in the interpretation fair and delicate Robin Wright Penn, actress we see too rarely in movies. I really liked!

Our day will come (Redheads)
directed by Romain Gavras
with Vincent Cassel, Olivier Barthelemy

Synopsis
Patrick Remy and neither people nor country, nor army they are red. Together they fight the world and its morality, in a hallucinatory quest to Ireland and freedom ...


My opinion I had already talked Romain Gavras and his achievements controversy . This film is no exception to the rule. There is a style, colors but want to provoke reflection shocking, the film sometimes leaves us at a distance and sometimes borders on the limits of anything. But certainly, hypnotic ... For cinema audiences.

Burlesque Steven Antin
with Christina Aguilera and Cher

Synopsis An ambitious young woman, with a superb voice is the glory in a neo-burlesque club in Los Angeles held by Tess.

My opinion
I already reveled the pleasure of making a cynical and acerbic critic of this film. You do not have yet the right! Even if the film by Mathieu Amalric "tour" is more interesting in how to deal with the subject, I will not hide the pleasure I had watching this movie!

Black Swan Darren Aronofsky Natalie Portman

Synopsis
Rivalries in the company of the New York City Ballet. Nina is desperate to get the main role of Swan Lake that leads the ambiguous Thomas. But she soon finds herself facing the beautiful and sensual new recruit, Lily ...

My opinion
The film released this week in France. I looked at the reviews and there: Cahiers du cinema ***** It was therefore imperative that I see this film! And I can confirm ... The benefit of Natalie Portman, who is the physical challenge of classical dance and interpretation as an actress, is extraordinary. This psychological thriller is indeed a masterpiece!
