Wild Things, 1998

For being twisted.

Small tip - just not overthink this movie, turn your throttle down a little bit.

Lillehammer, series

Cool, stylish and pretty good series.

Good song

Experimenter

Film about famous experiments made by Stanley Milgram. Of course things had been more complex and not fully as shown - https://lareviewofbooks.org/article/psych-lies-and-audiotape-the-tarnished-legacy-of-the-milgram-shock-experiments/ . Man fought for position money and, later, book sales. But all of experiments are useful and interesting. Some explanations provided by author are weird and focus on individual and some abstract authority instead of focus on society and brain adaptation to live only in society. Most fun is that it is not hard to invent experiments where same behavior mechanics can be interpreted as courage and very much approved.

Good film must force you to read more.

I find this film really useful. I think it set absolute record on reducing personal and invented drama parts. Of course some is present, bit they tried hard. Even Holocaust thing is on the point as Milgram was at the time obsessed with it, mostly due pragmatic marketing reasons, contrary to film, but anyway.

Matilda, 1996

Little known Start Wars spinoff about most powerful Jedi in the Galaxy that is very very close to ours. This little girl is learning the way of the force with big help of ancient Jedi books and little help of her master teacher. Her parents being slaves can't help her, as they are tightly chained to TV and their money.
As everyone know - the real way to become the Jedi is to fight evil dark lord Trunchbull.
And this epic battle concludes the saga.

P.S. Also can check how you can use camera position, angle and movement to fully change perception.

Hard Rain, 1998

Quite good very wet film.

If you want some short and entertaining guide to bourgeois consciousness and bourgeois ideology. Everyone in this film is extremely vivid portrait - petty bourgeois wanting to die to save their shop, guys who want money, police who ... hate their life and.. well, see film.

Train to Busan

Proper Korean Zombie Apocalypse Movie. Simple, clear, zombies are active and hungry. Acting is good.

Miss Sloane

Solid film about smart female lobbyist.

Most interesting - "Miss Sloane" was the first screenplay writer Jonathan Perera has ever written.

And this guy did a really good job. As well as Jessica Chastain did for her character.

Nokas, 2010

Bank robbery shot in documentary and amateur style. No emotions at all.
Good watch for anyone who still thinks that shallow DOF equals film like experience.
And that you can do it with average focus puller. Shot during years of DSLR style video dementia.

In the 10 years from 1994 to 2004, Norwegian police fired some 79 shots; 48 of these were fired during the Nokas Robbery in 2004

Lillehammer style Norway. :-)

Death Becomes Her, 1992

Back in the day, you could even not believe me, films was not about just effects alone.
You know, even Hollywood could produce humor.
Of course recently surfaced theories what all good 90s movies was actually shot in late 60s by Stanley Kubrick in his secret studio space. But I do not believe them much. They couldn't fake so much thing.... On other side, after watching 2017 movies you can not believe in original public history either.

Happy Death Day

Well, for starters film actually has script not made during heavy drug usage.
Second, it is made with knowledge of the subject (aka Groundhog Day) and with good humor towards it.
Third, it is easy film to watch and made with normal people.

Topic cleared, all embeds are working now again.

The Collini Case

Very interesting pro Nazi movie presented as anti Nazi one.

Based on Ferdinand von Schirach book - Der Fall Collini ("The Collini Case"). He is interesting mainstream writer advertised by top media, as well as lawyer. He is grandson of the Nazi youth leader and war criminal Baldur von Schirach, and a great-grandson of Hitler’s official photographer Heinrich Hoffmann.

Idea is the book and film is to perform certain twist. Stating that following certain specially arranged laws made it impossible to be accountable for capitalists and rich people who performed murders or ordered mass murders while serving Nazis. The main twist is that certain few people are blamed for making this laws, despite lot of politicians, lawyers, ministers and clerks had been ex Nazis and most of them kept same ideology while serving under capitalist Germany regime. Second part of big twist is constantly tell you how rich Nazi scum had been caring and nice guy. Next part of the twist is that author present opening scum crimes as something surprising but instantly later declares that in 1968 it had been already revealed and dismissed (not because of law, but because system had been full of the same guys).
