A Faithful Man - L'homme fidèle (2019)

A Faithful Man: Relationships don’t always happen between two people

For “A Faithful Man” (L’Homme Fidele in French), we can say that it is a very text-based persuasion film that appeared at the 38th International Istanbul Film Festival. Louis Garrel, one of the young and talented actors of French cinema, is accompanied by his wife Laetitia Casta.

Midnight in Paris (2011)

Gill’s time travel in Paris to make Van Gogh fans happy

This lovely, sweet, delightful film by director Woody Allen, renowned for his wit and witty approach, opens with images of Paris as a touristic documentary. These are the images of Paris that we can call cliché: Champs Elysees, Eiffel, Louvre, Notre Dame, Victory Monument. These are the brightest, most attractive and clichés of the tourist areas. And it takes a long time. And then we meet an American couple, the engaged couple in Paris, with the girl’s parents.

Midnight Sun (2018) - Bella Thorne

Midnight Sun Review: Dreams come true at night

“Midnight Sun” does what it means to do for the people it means to do it for—and that might just be enough. The 12-year-old girls who are the film’s target audience probably won’t realize what it’s derivative of: a little bit of John Hughes and a lot of “Love Story.” “Midnight Sun” also bears more than a slight resemblance to last summer’s Young Adult drama “Everything, Everything,” in which a rare disease supposedly spells doom for a blossoming teen romance. (Director Scott Speer’s film is actually based on a 2006 Japanese film of the same name.)

Wild Orchid (1990)

Remembering Wild Orchid from the good old 90’s

Wild Orchid has a story with barely any substance. It has been frequently summed up as the 50 Shades of Grey of the 1980’s. And you can tell that right from scene #1. This story is not interesting in the slightest. Although the setting is stylized to a ridiculous degree, with the softcore porn lighting and camerawork. The film is as stimulating as a paperclip.

Daydream Nation (2010) - Kat Dennings

‘Daydream Nation’ is an uncomfortable place to visit

Watching Daydream Nation is an uncomfortable experience, and not because it involves student-teacher sex or the looming threat of a small-town serial killer, or even because it’s kind of dull. No, the most squirm-inducing aspect of this coming-of-age-ish movie is the amount of effort that has gone into making it feel like the smart, off-kilter, affecting alterna-teen romance-fable it so desperately wants to be.
