I chose for you movies to offer and to watch during the holidays.
Movies to offer and to watch
This year, there were many good movies, so if you were too busy to watch them, I’ve chosen a few you may see during the festive holidays, and gift ideas to spend good times with your family, alone, as a couple, with friends, in short you understood me, as you want.
For young and old, I recommend, for having seen it with my nieces, Frozen 2,, funny, better shot, and feminist with beautiful songs. Also in animation: J’ai perdu mon corps and Le voyage du Prince.
Star Wars (obviously, would have said Zahid in Atypical, a great series on Netflix), and for the older ones, A Hidden Life by the great director Terrence Malick.
A moving documentary Pahokee, which takes us to Florida, to the heart of American youth from the underprivileged classes.
Scheduled for release on December 25: La Vérité – Directed by Hirokazu Kore-Eda, Starring Catherine Deneuve, Juliette Binoche, Ethan Hawke, Clémentine Grenier, Manon Clavel.
And to be seen on January 1st or maybe the 2nd (#hangover) not to be missed under any circumstances:
Greta Gerwig’s new adaptation of Little Women , starring Meryl Streep, Saoirse Ronan, Timothy Chalamet, Florence Pugh, Emma Watson.
