A lie can ruin your whole life: The Hunt

The Hunt was directed and co-written by Thomas Vinterberg, the film is a disturbing depiction of how a lie becomes the truth when gossip, doubt and malice are allowed to flourish and ignite a witch-hunt that soon threatens to destroy an innocent man’s life.
Lucas (Mads Mikkelsen) is a man whose career is ruined because of a 5-year-old girl’s false accusation of molestation. The screenplay is a master class in exposition, drama, character portraiture and sequence of many scenes and sensitive topics are involved such as sex abuse, mistrustfulness from of a small Danish community which needs to be handled with the sort of care afforded to genuine victims. The main victims strike a false note or soften the impact with consolatory sentiment while the truth comes out. This film is not an attack on the legal system that deals with child abuse investigations. The theme of the police and courts failing the innocent and protecting the guilty of Lucas during the legal proceedings into his accusations. The director assured a message full of discrepancies, intolerance, and resentment but at the same time each character is coming from- you might not agree with their actions, but nothing they do feels forced or unrealistic. This movie will make stay alert for any new Danish production because it is true art and won the Best Screenwriter prize at the 2012 European Film Awards, and was nominated for prizes in a number of other categories, including Best Film, Director and Actor. Magnolia Pictures will release the film theatrically in New York and Los Angeles on July 12, with a national rollout to follow.

The exact same movie besides some very slight changes…small improvements on picture quality, so Kutcher, 35, being tapped to play the late Apple co-founder was an overwhelming experience.

Stop supporting captivity of large aquatic mammals with Blackfish

Gabriela Cowperthwaite comes with BLACKFISH. Many of us have experienced the excitement and awe of watching 8,000-pound orcas, or “killer whales,” soar out of the water and fly through the air at sea parks, as if in perfect harmony with their trainers. However at this point may have destroyed the ability of some of the cetaceans to thrive in wild. Yet, in our contemporary lore this mighty black-and-white mammal is like a two-faced Janus—beloved as a majestic, friendly giant yet infamous for its capacity to kill viciously. BLACKFISH unravels the complexities of this dichotomy, employing the story of notorious performing whale Tilikum, who—unlike any orca in the wild—has taken the lives of several people while in captivity. So what exactly went wrong? Shocking, never-before-seen footage and riveting interviews with trainers and experts manifest the orca’s extraordinary nature, the species’ cruel treatment in captivity over the last four decades, and the growing disillusionment of workers who were misled and endangered by the highly profitable sea-park industry. This emotionally wrenching, tautly structured story challenges us to consider our relationship to nature and reveals how little we humans have learned from these highly intelligent and enormously sentient fellow mammals. Even if the injuries they inflict on one another when kept in close proximity It’s not all about the trainers, the footage was there to be seen and conservation and rehabilitation is great for this animals but not for some ex trainers who defend the right of a good documentary that is only trying to prove the point that orcas and marine mammals belong in the wild and not a tank doing tricks for food. Two thumbs up for this film which makes us think about life in captivity of killer whales as they are separated from their biological mothers.

Are you excited for a new trip?

Pedro Almodóvar is back with his new film ‘I’m So Excited’ starring, in order of appearance, Antonio de la Torre, Hugo Silva, Miguel Ángel Silvestre, Laya Martí, Javier Cámara, Carlos Areces, Raul Arevalo, José María Yazpik, Guillermo Toledo, José Luis Torrijo, Lola Dueñas, Cecilia Roth, Blanca Suárez.
In the new comedy by Pedro Almodóvar, a very mixed group of travelers are in a life-threatening situation on board a plane flying to Mexico City.
A technical failure has endangered the lives of the people on board Peninsula Flight 2549. The pilots are striving, along with their colleagues in the Control Center, to find a solution. The flight attendants and the chief steward are atypical, baroque characters who, in the face of danger, try to forget their own personal problems and devote themselves body and soul to the task of making the flight as enjoyable as possible for the passengers, while they wait for a solution. Life in the clouds is as complicated as it is at ground level, and for the same reasons, which could be summarized in two: sex and death.
In press conference Pedro Almodovar said: “This is absolutely a master piece because it has special characters and a wonderful actress and 1963 look was very important to this production. Espana del destape in which everything was freedom.”
“I was very happy because it was intense in many scenes were unique where happiness was extreme with all passengers. Then they decided to change some flirting with some passengers especially for the title of this movie. Light comedy is very important with quality and homosexuality was important for the comedy lack of loneliness and to take care of each other.”
This is the typical comedy that recaptures all types of audience with a high humor from 1970’s influence and based on the modern society from Spain in these days. It is a movie full of magic moments despite the common laughs at certain point; most people were dead silent watching while I was laughing with clever humor whereas this just serves up some repetitive well trod clichés. This is one of the reasons that Pedro Almodovar’s films are always controversial.
