Comments

Vertigo is a masterpiece dealing with a common desire: bringing your lost loved one back from the dead.

The Godfather is the best conceptual Shakespearean translation to screen ever.

Paths of Glory is a painful snapshot of human absurdity and cruelty.

Blade Runner is my favourite on the issue of fear of death.

The exterminating angel is an eye-opening nightmare shot with the clarity of the wisest filmmaker. Kramer vs. Kramer is a mesmerising, heartbreaking story.

The Executioner is the best cocktail of darkness and humour ever made.

The Apartment is the funniest recognition of the social climber that everybody has inside.

The Postman Always Rings Twice is an intense and erotic tragedy on death and love and the movie I have watched the most.

The Silence of the Lambs – or how sometimes darkness is the most exciting and healing place…
