An excellent "little" movie.
The story of a friendship between a new mother and a young neighbor in a wheelchair.
The trailer gives a much brighter image than it actually is. And it's better than the trailer. It gives a bittersweet atmosphere all along that takes guts. A film that speaks to young parents, first love, the passing of time, the mourning to do.
Simple and touching.
Very short text on this film. There are tons of things to say but even after multiple visions, the impression of quality is only diminished each time. So why spend time on it?
Why is "Prometheus" a big disappointment with the quality of the 1st Alien by the same Ridley Scott? When we look at the making of the film, we see that their goal was to give answers to the unexplained things of the first. What is also a quality in a film, because it gives the viewer something to question. The problem is that they have put these unresolved questions on the table and have randomly arranged the answers, which gives this fuzzy scenario and makes it indigestible. They focused on giving answers instead of creating an original, engaging story that makes us tickle with the characters. Result: a soulless and harmless film with which one can always theorize and explain the semi-proven infos. But this is only the mind walking its way in a labyrinth. A good film transports us, raises us and feeds us, including a thriller. This film encloses us in a wriggle whose answer is without interest. The goal being ambitious: the origins of life. But at no time did I feel the slightest chill on this subject. A tortuous story and irrational characters prevent any involvement.
This contrasts so much with the immense qualities of Alien the 8th passenger, a scenario that has passed through many hands and which in its time was innovative, that makes it dizzy.
