Take Shelter

"Take Shelter" is a masterclass in mood building. Jeff Nichols has that unique filmmaking ability to extract tension and authentic human drama out of the most simple setup. Shannon and Chastain deliver sincere, authentic performances that really make us care about the characters and their destinies. There's a feeling of dread throughout the film that mirrors the anxieties of contemporary western world. A masterpiece!

I agree about Drive. Over-the-top violence can be fun, but the way the film handles it is more groan inducing. I hate the slow-mo and I hate how Driver is practically Superman. There's no humanity/real personality in his character whatsoever. In all honesty, I kind of find Drive to be the masculine equivalent of Twilight!

    Em Blu-Ray região 1 em casa de um amigo. Já saiu em BD nos EUA. Por cá nem nos cinemas saiu... Se isso acontecer ainda vou revê-lo (ou será vê-lo) ao cinema.

    Ui. Região 1. Nicey nice. Pois cá, as coisas chegam terrivelmente tarde, nem tudo, mas muitas coisas das mais "alternativas".

    No dia 27 de Junho sai em Blu-Ray no Reino Unido. Vale a pena comprar porque o filme é extraordinário. Pena que não o tenha podido ver no cinema...

"If you want to make a successful film here you have to make a teaser with a beauty queen showing her tits. Otherwise you’re condemned to oblivion." Que frase fenomenal, carlos.
