Peter Greenaway’s decadent masterpiece (film: The Cook, The Thief, His Wife and Her Lover – Peter Greenaway, 1989)
“The Cook, The Thief, His Wife & Her Lover” concludes the series of films made by Peter Greenaway in the 80s and is probably the best of them all. None of the previous films written and directed by the painter-turned-filmmaker … Continue reading
Napoleon’s failure (film: Napoleon – Ridley Scott, 2023)

a movie from the 50s made in 2002 (film: Far from Heaven – Todd Haynes, 2002)
Todd Haynes‘ ‘Far from Heaven‘ (2002) is a bold and highly successful stylistic and thematic exercise. From the beginning of the film, from the opening credits, you have the impression as a viewer that you are watching an American film … Continue reading
the Japanese movie of Wim Wenders (film: Perfect Days – Wim Wenders, 2023)

too much chocolate can be dangerous to your health (film: Chocolat – Lasse Hallström, 2000)
‘Chocolat‘ (2000) is one of those very successful films that I should have seen at their time and that somehow I missed, caught up in the whirlwind of my previous lives. I kept putting it off, but now its turn … Continue reading
Agatha Christie on music (film: 8 femmes – François Ozon, 2002)
I believe that any fan of French cinema of the last 70 years would like to have witnessed in the studio the filming of ‘8 femmes‘ (‘8 Women‘) made in 2002 by François Ozon. It is a perfect exemplification of … Continue reading
