Film Reviews by tezza

not very interesting or involving - great central performances, but just like you don't want novels about writers you don't want films about film-makers. Tom Burke fascinatingly horrible though.

beautiful technicolor irritating couple's relationship over 10 years or so, nice old cars, some comedy, Finney particularly irritating

beautifully shot wonderfully acted, starts as a meditation on class and opportunity and relationships then becomes a sinister thriller halfway through

A slow-moving lyrical film about incomprehension and human understanding. A lonely, rather lost German builder falls in love with a remote Bulgarian village. There's plenty of plot along the way, but it never turns out how you'd expect. Highly intelligent, Chekhovian even.

Terrific existential noir, with the Coen Brothers usual teasing ambiguity. A tribute to the great films of the '40s, but more than that, a strange psychological portrait. Billy Bob Thornton is wonderful as The Man Who Wasn't There. The back and white cinematography really adds atmosphere to a story that definitely isn't black and white.

Well '60s classic, one of Godard's very best, Jean Seberg and Jean-Paul Belmondp brilliant, and Paris and all those emptier boulevards and wonderful old cars.

this isn't the best pf Godard's great run of films in the '60s, though it has its points, especially in the quirky interludes. We see too much of the love triangle who are rather unattractive in a very French way - less verve and plot than usual, but a must see for fans.
