neo-realism meets Catholicism in an early work of Pasolini (film: Mamma Roma – Pier Paolo Pasolini, 1962)
A few days ago I saw ‘1917‘, the film that has a good chance of picking up several Academy Awards in a few weeks. The glory of this film is due to the fact that its director, Sam Mendes, uses … Continue reading

Denys Arcand is known for some memorable films, in which the sparkling dialogue of his characters either intellectuals or belonging to the higher social classes is an important part of the style and of the substance. The hero in ‘La … Continue reading
istorie tragică în registru sarcastic (carte: Cătălin Mihuleac – Deborah)
Am văzut cu câteva zile în urmă filmul ‘Jojo Rabbit’ realizat de regizorul născut în Nouă Zeelandă, Taila Waititi Cohen. Este vorba despre o poveste de maturizare forțată și accelerată a unui copil crescut în Germania Reich-ului, îndoctrinat în școlile … Continue reading
CHANGE.WORLD – Noutăți din lumea super-calculatoarelor
Există calculatoare și super-calculatoare. ‘Computers’ și ‘supercomputers’. Definiția super-calculatoarelor este relativ simplă și destul de trivială. Super-calculatoarele sunt calculatoare cu performanțe mult superioare celorlalte calculatoare (celor de uz general). Prin performanțe se înțelege, în general, puterea de calcul măsurată în … Continue reading

immersed in ww1 (Film: 1917 – Sam Mendes, 2019)

the coming to age of the rabbit (Film: Jojo Rabbit – Taika Waititi, 2019)
‘Jojo Rabbit‘, Taika Waititi‘s film arouses controversy among film critics and viewers. Normal for a satirical comedy dealing with the darkest period in history? Perhaps, however, we should not be so shocked anymore, and not because almost eight decades have … Continue reading
CHANGE.WORLD: 2020 – Anul care va fi
Iată-ne în 2020 sau douăzeci-douăzeci, cum spun unii. Lăsând la o parte disputa dacă la 1 ianuarie a început sau nu un nou deceniu (eu prefer să port această discuție doar o dată pe mileniu), sigur este că intrăm în … Continue reading
