have read somewhere that compared to previous generations ours didn't do much to the human kind progress, that we are the TV generation parasites; fruit of a baby boom messed up cohort. I couldn't disagree more, under our years google was born, you tube came along, electronic music started ruling and we are certainly the ones with more environmental concerns. Said that, we also witness the technology control over our lives: we are slaves of our mobiles, computers direct our days and last but...

What a good decision that was, it’s one of the best romantic movies I’ve ever seen, so original, amazing and surprising script, oh well I could be all day enlisting all the great words I...

Dogville Direction & Screenplay: Lars von Trier Cast: Nicole Kidman, Paul Bettany, Lauren Baccall, and James Caan This is one of those movies that was surrounded by controversy from the moment the shooting started. Definitely is one of the kind that you either love it or hate it, I’m among the ones that loved it. I consider it perfect; it’s a movie that surprises you for its difference. Even thought we have only a stage and it lasts for three hours, it’s amazing how we keep on wondering what ...
