'The Lego Movie' Brilliantly Subverts Movie Tropes
The Lego Movie achieves great humor and story with a combination of childish comedy, adult references, irony, and by subverting popular movie tropes.
Snow (1998)
It's midwinter in Minneapolis, and rock musician Thomas (Shane Barach) can't seem to commit to girlfriend Jessica (Lara Miklasevics). At a local coffee shop, he runs into Sabina (Rose Mailutha), whom he knows casually from the club scene, and a relationship develops. But responsibilities lurk in the background since he needs to find work, and she must take care of her young son. With a naturalistic style, filmed in 16mm black-and-white, the film recalls Shadows (1959) an independent films of the early '60s.
