About Me

30 year old translator and student of anthropogy & media. Love film and literature to bits, preferably old stuff from the 30s, 40s and 50s. Favourite genres are drama / horror (old), not so keen on action films and American comedies. Feel free to add me as a friend on Mubi.

The Desperate Hours

A dense cat and mouse game featuring old Bogart, still pulling it off, maybe not as menacing as he could have, but it is his charcters rogue-like ambiguity that carries the movie. A hostage drama at its core, the movie features a many characters and depicts their conflicting interests. Of course, the increasing tension between the captors and the glooming disaster is what fires up the heat of suspense.

A tender love story between misfits. The movie is rather tranquil and sublte without heeps of drama thrown in your face or outrageous ongoings pushing the story forward. Instead, we get an insight…  read review

Eden Lake

An interesting take on survival horror. Instead of brain eating zombies or monsters, our protagonists are confronted with a bunch of antisocial chavs on the loose. While I enjoyed watching a British…  read review
