From Director Damián Szifron and a great cast Ricardo Darín, Oscar Martínez, Leonardo Sbaraglia, Érica Rivas, Rita Cortese, Julieta Zylberberg, and Darío Grandinetti that makes each character a different world around you. A waitress adds a special ingredient to an arrogant loan shark’s meal in one of several tales dealing with extremes of human behavior. With great energy in some stories more than others, stress and depression for many people could result in a well and interesting dark comedy with certain tragedy. It was co-produced by Agustín Almodóvar and Pedro Almodóvar. The film’s musical score was composed by Gustavo Santaolalla so now debuts on Blu-ray, DVD and digital HD in 122 minutes in Spanish language with English subtitles. All these elements can be enjoyed in each scene with deception and revenge make it true artistic vision.

Woody Allen’s Irrational Man is about a tormented philosophy professor who finds a will to live when he commits an existential act and emotionally unable to find any meaning or joy in life. Abe feels that everything he’s tried to do, from political activism to teaching, hasn’t made any difference.

Soon after arriving to teach at a small town college, Abe gets involved with two women: Rita Richards (Parker Posey), a lonely professor who wants him to rescue her from her unhappy marriage; and Jill Pollard (Emma Stone), his best student, who becomes his closest friend. Definitely one of the better casts Allen has had in this film so during 1 hour and 34 minutes you will be involve in many decisions and actions alter the main character of Abe through an existential act gives rise to a murder plot that ends with  his unintended collateral victims. In all probability is a film that connects with a broad audience.

An intriguing film with the best warriors of a Dune

Review by Jenny Alvarez

Jodorowsky’s Dune is an American documentary film directed by Frank Pavich. The film explores Chilean-French director Alejandro Jodorowsky’s attempt to adapt and film Frank Herbert’s science fiction novel Dune in the mid-1970s. The director makes the story alive and full of passion that Jodorowsky uses to describe everything. It is a well structured master piece in his book but makes the case for this overblown epic as a legendary lost master piece in a film in which he didn’t participate.  It would be around 12 hours long but the real time is 90 minutes and the documentary shows how some of the drawings were used for inspiration in Star Wars and other movies later on. Donald Rosenfeld, Stephen Scarlata, Michel Seydoux, and Travis Stevens also were part in an in-depth look at the doomed production and features a number of never-before-seen images and interviews where world-class surrealists, international rock stars, top-billed actors and artists were going to be part in Jodorowsky’s film but at the end all the melodrama and manipulation there was, instead, vision and ambition. From an artistic point of view, that generation was more honest and people from big film companies didn’t want to share with this visionary of the visual art in movement. This documentary will we open in Los Angeles on March 21st, 2014.
