Cinema and me:
When I was a child I’d loved to become a director. I tried but it was horrible, worse than “Plan 9 from Outer Space” but I do not despair one day of making some short films but for now I just watch them. I love to analyze and talk about them so I take this page to tell you about some films that I particularly like .
I hope you will find some interesting things here:
How Star Trek Uniforms Became Iconic
Bright reds, blues and golds. This is how the saga defines the uniforms of the Starfleet crew in the “Star Trek” series in 1966. We owe them to costume designer William Ware Theiss, responsible for interpreting the vision of the United Federation of Planets by Gene Roddenberry , the creator of the series. “Roddenberry wanted…
METROPOLIS: FRITZ LANG’S MISUNDERSTOOD MASTERPIECE
Today I wanted to talk to you about an old film and to be old it is old since this year it will celebrate its 101 years. Well, as you read the title you already know that I am talking about Metropolis. If you haven’t seen it yet or want to see it again, I’ll…
Cinema: The Witch, this mythical figure
Mona Chollet, Witches the Undefeated Power of Women. “If you are a woman and you dare to look inside yourself, then you are a witch.” The hooked nose, warts, incantations and potions… the witch has always fascinated and the cinema has portrayed her many times. From the cantankerous old queen of Snow White to the…
Bis Repertita: Bis cinema
I really like cinema in general with a preference for science fiction and fantasy, but I haven’t talked too much about a type of cinema that I particularly like, Bis cinema. Alright, but what is Bis cinema? Let’s go back to four names that may come up often in the future if I want to…
The history of TV Shows
Before becoming the dominant audiovisual format that we know today, recognized by some as the 8th art, offering us many and many heroes accompanying us on a daily basis for several years and on several platforms, tv series made their timid appearance long after the cinema. It was at the end of the 1940s that…
The Wheel of Time
On November 19, a series on Prime Video is released adapting a book series that I love: The Wheel of Time and I am both impatient and at the same time afraid of the result. On the other hand, I found The Witcher cheap on the trailers and I expected the worst but even if…
The near future, a distorting mirror
From Andy Cline’s Ready Player One to Judge Dread to Black Mirror and Pacific Rim, near future works are endless.Close anticipation is not a genre, it is an approach.Common point of the corpus: the stories must take place in the near future. Something to get excited about and also often fuel the nightmare machine. What…
Fear Street 1994
“Fear Street” is basically a series of books in the line of “Goosebumps” but more adult, at the same time we find the same author: R.L. Stine. “Fear Street 1994”, available on Netflix, is therefore an adaptation of those books, which I haven’t read, so it’s impossible for me to say if the story is…
Mortal Komnat 2021
After a quick spicy bolognese sauce, I embark on this long awaited Mortal Kombat new version and without, I reassure you, a cameo of the unbearable Christophe Lambert. Too busy looking for a role in a Tintin in Congo on the stage. Between fatalities and action scenes as edgy as they are boosted, the Mortal…
The werewolf and its representation in cinema
Attention SPOILERS! You can consult the list of films mentioned at the end of the article. Out of almost 30 films seen, the number of films depicting male and / or female werewolves is almost similar. We often have the representation that a werewolf is a man, when it is not.The werewolf represents marginality. But…
Cinematographic and literary genres
I’ve been talking about films for a while now, but I’ve never written an article about genres as such, because I wasn’t really paying attention until then. I was told that such and such a film was part of such and such a genre and I said “Okey”!I don’t like to put artistic works in…
We are all fragments
after an experience gone awry, Seth Brandle turns into a fly. And, as his body loses its integrity, which becomes something else, Seth Brandle constitutes the Seth Brandle Museum. A museum of spare parts, pieces of bodies that have bowed out. A museum entirely dedicated to what he was until then. Seth Brandle deconstructs himself…
