About Me

I’ve always been fascinated by edgy music and cinema. I spend hours savoring and analyzing both…
To my tastes, Philippe Grandrieux, by virtue of his singular vision, is perhaps the most compelling filmaker currently working, though Carlos Reygadas’ work possesses a similar intrigue…

The Loneliest Planet

An aggressively minimalist Blue Valentine? (props to Roger...) The space in the narrative suited my tastes. Exquisite to look at. Likely not everyone's cup o' tea, though...

Greetings. I recall being impressed that you had invoked Šarunas Bartas in a discussion on contemporary contemplative cinema. Nice to meet you. Looking forward to browsing your page and comments. Cheers!

OMG, scandalous! Catarina, you're naughty... ;-) (BTW, I named my car "Miiki" in his honor, though I had to feminize the name, since we all know that cars are female!)

He is something else right?!! I like to think of everything as male but I guess you're right, according to Sena's Gone in 60 seconds. I bet your vehicle perspires charisma.

Actually, my car is kind of nerdy, but you made me smile!

Have you seen this thread on The Temptation of St. Tony--http://mubi.com/topics/the-futility-of-good? I'd be interested in hearing some of your comments on the questions and comments I raised in it.

Didn't care much for tiny furniture :/ I think there are others ways to portrait my generation. Overall it was not very "familiar" to me. The scene about the “cum omelette” made me laugh though.

What about Upstream Color? Looking good or what?

I understand. An acquired taste, perhaps... And yes, Upstream Color does indeed have potential! Stay well, Catarina.
