The Relentless Victimization of Marilyn Monroe in "Blonde"
'Blonde' commits a relentless assault on the autonomy of Marilyn Monroe, reducing the icon to nothing more than a victim of the director's whims.
Nordic Bahamas
Forget pristine peaks and heroic descents under blue skies: here, powder snow sticks, storms rage, and laughter drowns out the wind. This is not your typical ski movie, but rather the wandering tale of two friends: Camille Armand, freeride icon, and Enzo Scotto, freestyle virtuoso, who set off on the roads of northern Norway. One on his snowboard, the other on his skis, both in pursuit of elusive snow, dodging gusts of wind and the established order. Accompanied by photographer Soren Rickards and filmmaker Alexis Vernis, they embark on a human-scale adventure: soaked bags, botched turns, endless jokes, and breathtaking landscapes. A film about friendship, the mountains as they are: beautiful, harsh, unpredictable; and those moments that cannot be planned, that are simply lived.
