Alexander Traugot is an outstanding St. Petersburg artist, heir to the dynasty of painters "G.A.V. Traugot", a porcelain maker and illustrator of books by Andersen, Nabokov, Bulgakov and Pushkin. He met the war as a 10-year-old child and lived with his mother and father in Leningrad throughout the blockade. The film recreates the atmosphere of the inner circle of the Traugot family.
I hope that more people will see Joyland, understand the situation, and eventually change themselves and society so we can have a more accommodating world where everyday tragedies like the one depicted in the film do not occur.
An action film led by two queens, fighting for what they believe in through power and pain.
'Playing with Fire' was clearly a film made for a kid or tween-ish audience. Keeping that in mind, I thought 'Playing with Fire' was alright, though it did portray some harmful stereotypes.
'A Wrinkle In Time' combines fantasy and science fiction to bring the classic story to life.
'The Menu' has a strong story. The 5 acts, which are defined by the courses, are an excellent subversion of the classic 5-act film structure.
Neo Sora left a realistic and yet hopeful notion for the near future and the now.
