Pedro Almodóvar, „The Room Next Door”
None of the films by Pedro Almodóvar, the Spanish director and producer, has gone unnoticed. Not only because of the director’s name, which is already a brand itself. When we hear „Almodóvar”, we imagine Pedro himself, a specific frame from his films or actors and actresses who appeared in his productions, often for the first Read More
When a book surprises you… :) „O szyciu. Prosto, kreatywnie i modnie” by Jan Leśniak
I’m not sure whether you also have had this feeling recently that there are fewer and fewer books that can absorb you, draw you in so much that you forget about reality. And I used to experience this quite often in the past. And as a child, I often stayed up all night because I Read More
„Here” – Reuniting with the “Forrest Gump” team after 30 years
I was encouraged to watch „Here” by its trailer. Robert Zemeckis on one side of the camera, and on the other the duo that we knew and loved – Tom Hanks and Robin Wright – the dream team from “Forrest Gump”. How was it? You don’t change a good team? Well: it depends. In general, Read More
Film music – „La La Land”
Today a bit different post, because it’s going to be about film music. Or more precisely, about music from a specific film to which I return to from time to time. And every time it evokes the same positive emotions and makes it really hard to sit still. This is not about any new film, Read More
„Conclave” – a film about much more than conclave
When I saw the poster advertising the film „Conclave”, directed by Edward Berger, I knew it would be a film I would have to watch. Where did this certainty come from? Maybe I thought that if someone decides to make a film about the Catholic Church, it will be worth watching? Maybe the name of Read More
„A Real Pain” – Jesse Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin in a difficult emotional trip to Poland
Since 8th November in Polish cinemas (although the world premiere took place earlier this year) we can watch the film „A Real Pain”, directed and written by Jesse Eisenberg. The film “A Real Pain” tells the story of two cousins: David (Jesse Eisenberg) and Benji (played by Kieran Culkin), who decided to travel to Poland Read More
„Simona Kossak”, directed by Adrian Panek, at the 49th Polish Film Festival in Gdynia, Poland
„Simona Kossak”, directed by Adrian Panek, is the film I saw as the last one at the 49th Polish Film Festival in Gdynia, Poland, within the Main Competition. I was persuaded to go for this film by Jakub Gierszał, who plays one of the leading roles in the film. His performances in films such as Read More
The film „Sezony” („Seasons”), directed by Michał Grzybowski – 49th Polish Film Festival in Gdynia, Poland
The film „Sezony” („Seasons”), directed by Michał Grzybowski, caught my eye already a few weeks ago when pre-release screenings appeared in cinema repertoires. You need to admit it – such a cast, full of known and talented actors: Agnieszka Dulęba-Kasza, Łukasz Simlat, Wiktoria Filus, Andrzej Seweryn, Sebastian Pawlak, Andrzej Grabowski, Dobromir Dymecki is impressive, isn’t Read More
„Toc, toc” – Spanish film: about serious things in not that serious way
Today, it will be about a Spanish film, but not any film that has just premiered (and not because nothing of Spanish production is currently entering Polish cinemas). It’s going to be about a film from 2017, because I think it’s worth talking about productions (whether literary, cinematic or theatrical) that were made a few Read More
