Leo McCarey has not only shot one of the best romance ever, he has also launched  Laurel and Hardy and the Marx Brothers.

Marx Brothers

 

Leo McCarey  did first  An affair to remember with Charles Boyer & Irene Dunne in 1939. He shot his own remake of it with Deborah Kerr et Cary Grant, which became a cult movie.

Cathleen Nesbitt, actress of silent movies, plays the grand-mother of Nickie Ferrante and played in 1976 in an Alfred Hitchcock movie, Family Plot. 

Pitch : Terry McKay Terry McKay, a cabaret singer, meets the seducer Nickie Ferrante, both passengers on a liner and  supposed to get married at their arrival. They decide to meet on top of the Empire State Building six months later…

All romances movies have been inspired by An Affair to Remember…

The performance of the two actors is an enchantment, the dialogues, the script, keep us spellbound until the end, one of the most beautiful in the history of cinema.

 

 

 

7500

NOW ON AMAZON PRIME

7500

7500 is the alert code for a terrorist attack on a plane.

Pitch

Two cameras follow two men into an airport.

Then, we meet the crew and two pilots who are preparing the takeoff. Later, some terrorists try to force their way into the cockpit…

Like The Guilty, a movie where  a policeman talked on the phone with a kidnapped woman, directed by Gustav Möller, 7500 is both fascinating and frightening in a huis clos format.

For the first time as a spectators we witness all the stages of a takeoff and the result of the terrorist attack in the cockpit is completely outstanding. We discover a place we barely see in the movies.

The realism of the scenes, the acting – Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Omid Memar are sensational – contribute to the success of this film. A must-see movie.

Directed by Patrick Vollrath, with Joseph Gordon Levitt, Omid Memar, Aylin Tezel , Carlo Kitzlinger.

The Politician saison 2

This Ryan Murphy series just keeps getting funnier and more and more committed.

The director tackles climate change, the sexual life of politician, especially when they are women, relations of women and men as power (“My sperm is as ambitious as I am”) and the stakes of an election while now in the United States, the presidential election is coming…

At the heart of the issues are committed youth and the legacy of a generation used to the same political processes. Judith Light and Bette Midler form an incredible duet. Gwyneth Paltrow is very good in her part and Ben Platt perfectly embodies a man driven by passion and a vision of himself.

With Ben Platt, Gwyneth Paltrow, Judith Light et Bette Midler.
