A film is - or should be - more like music than like fiction. It should be a progression of moods and feelings. The theme, what’s behind the emotion, the meaning, all that comes later.
~ Stanley Kubrick
IN A BETTER WORLD (2010) — What makes the friendship between Christian and Elias so special is how deeply and honestly Susanne Bier displays the emotional side of both children. Only by peering the eyes of the two actors, I can feel the all emotional reasons why they become such small terrorists. YOUNG TÖRLESS (1966) — Violence is not just a physical matter, but also psychological and emotional. In Young Törless, ethical ​​and subjective values ​​were so contradictory. Then the boundaries between good and evil even more vague. PHARAOH (1966) — Faraon is an evocative anatopism, also an astonishing colossal. A truly rare gem of its kind. Not only works as a visual declaration, Kawalerowicz also made it so carefully, so mesmerizing, yet so challenging. THE BOYS OF PAUL STREET (1969) — An ironic allegory not only for the face of war, but also the heart of it: militarism and nationalism. The irony in the end makes the two terminologies be absurd. SPIRITED AWAY (2001) — “What's in a name?” asked Shakespeare. “A name is an identity,” said this movie. MISS JULIE (1951) - Miss Julie is a very challenging study, whether psychological or situational. In a simple but smart way, Miss Julie presents the phases of a political game of love and seduction. MY NIGHT AT MAUD'S (1969) - Éric Rohmer not only talk about choices and risks of choices, there is also a glimpse the importance of choices and the pain of choices. My Night at Maud's, for me, is the most amazing movie about refracting those two opposing aspects of life. TEN (2002) — The use of "dashboard camera" method by Abbas Kiarostami is successfully providing such microscopic spectacle about the characters, not only on outside but also capable of making this movie as a unique character and gender study. THE PARTY AND THE GUESTS / A REPORT ON THE PARTY AND THE GUESTS (1966) — The allegory is not only the great thing about this Czechoslovak New Wave Cinema movie, but also its weirdness, its unnatural behavior, its peculiar plot, but the most of it is about how the movie smartly move without caution. ELEPHANT (2003) — Elephant is a piece of work that should be commended for its bravery. Such compliments are mainly intended to for Gus Van Sant's guts on using such non-linear and unusual narrative spectacle. Also packed with such unnatural risky styles which was really cost lot of guts.

Tahun Rilis: 2008

Ada isu raksasa yang ditopang di film spionase besutan Ridley Scott ini, saking besarnya sampai-sampai malah menjadi pukulan besar ketika film ini sendiri gagal memuaskan isu tersebut. Jelas tema-tema “Barat vs. Arab” bukan lagi barang baru bagi perfilman Hollywood, pernah dengar judul-judul ini: The Insider, Syriana, Rendition, The Kingdom, Traitor, The Stoning of Soraya M., dan semacamnya? Mundur agak ke belakang, pernah dengar film Not Without My Daughter, film kontroversial dari Hollywood? Jauh ke belakang lagi, bahkan ada film epik Lawrance of Arabia.

Penyakit dalam Film

PENYAKIT dalam film, khususnya drama, bukanlah hal baru. Berbagai macam nama dan jenis penyakit sudah dipampangkan di dunia perfilman, mulai dari penyakit psikologis hingga penyakit biologis, mulai dari batuk-batuk hingga penyakit kronis. Bahkan ada juga film malah menggunakan nama-nama penyakit-penyakit yang tidak ramah di telinga, contohnya: “The Others” yang memperkenalkan xeroderma pigmentosum atau “Lorenzo's Oil” yang membawa nama adrenoleukodystrophy (ALD). Ada juga film yang menyajikan penyakit fiksional: seperti wabah kebutaan tiba-tiba dalam film “Blindness” atau infertility epidemic dalam film “Children of Men”.
