ARS Filmska glasba, 1. junij 2018 ― Film Labirint iz leta 1986 ni dosegel večjega uspeha, film Divji angeli pa je znan kot začetnik žanra bikerskega filma. Ko je leta 1986 fantazijska zgodba o deklici (film Labirint), ki ji je kralj škratov ugrabil mlajšega bratca – do njega lahko pride le po zapletenem labirintu – prišla v kinematografe, ni dosegla večjega uspeha. V resnici je bila prava polomija, z leti pa si je nabrala izredno številno četico zvestih oboževalcev. V Los Angelesu se filma vsako leto spomnijo s tematskim plesom v maskah, v kakršnem se znajde Sarah, ki jo je upodobila tedaj 16-letna Jennifer Connelly. Ameriški igrani film Divji angeli, posnet leta 1966, v režiji Rogerja Cormana je danes znan predvsem kot ena prvih hollywoodskih stvaritev, v katerih so prikazali mladinsko kontrakulturo v šestdesetih letih, pa tudi kot začetnik žanra bikerskega filma. Cormanu in drugim filmskim ustvarjalcem je pomenil navdih za številne druge ekranizacije podobne tematike – s tem so začeli smer, ki je dosegla vrh s kultno stvaritvijo Goli v sedlu nekaj let pozneje.

Tiranskega diktatorja Josipa Visarijonoviča Stalina, strah in trepet sovjetskega ljudstva, nekega jutra najdejo nezavestnega »v luži nedostojanstva« v njegovi dači blizu Moskve. Okoli njega se kmalu zbere gručica prebledelih tovarišev: sadistični šef tajne policije Lavrentij Berija, večno zbegani Georgij Malenkov ter gobezdavi in prebrisani Nikita Hruščov. Začne se divja bitka za nasledstvo. Film so navdihnili resnični dogodki … Huronsko smešna in hkrati srhljivo aktualna satira o krdelu oblasti željnih, samovšečnih in nesposobnih burkežev, ki se borijo za svoje mesto pri koritu. Črna komedija, v kateri mrgoli prostaškega humorja in ubijalskih enovrstičnic, se ponaša s šopkom sijajnih igralcev s Stevom Buscemijem v vlogi Hruščova na čelu. -KD Domžale [ENG] In early-1953 Moscow, under the Great Terror's heavy cloak of state paranoia, the ever-watchful Soviet leader, Joseph Stalin, collapses unexpectedly of a brain haemorrhage. Inevitably, when his body is discovered in the following morning, a frenetic surge of raw panic spreads like a virus in the senior members of the Council of Ministers, as they scramble to maintain order, weed out the competition, and, ultimately, take power. But in the middle of a gut-wrenching roller-coaster of incessant plotting, tireless machinations, and frail allegiances, absolutely no one is safe; not even the feared chief of the secret police, Lavrenti Beria. In the end, who will prevail after the death of Stalin? -Nick Riganas Ocena

Filmski kotiček, 31. maj 2018 ― Foto: Official site Slo naslov: - Država: ZDA Jezik: angleščina Leto: 1999 Dolžina: 107',  Imdb Žanri: dokumentarni, komedija Slo recenzija: - Režija: Chris Smith Scenarij: Chris Smith Igrajo: Mark Borchardt, Mike Schank, Tom Schimmels [ENG] It takes a village to make a movie, but when that village is Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin and not Hollywood, CA, the results are at times bizarre, comical, and very American.  With  the help of his mother, his 82-year old uncle, and local cast of hilarious and lovable characters, filmmaker Mark Borchardt fights his way through internal and external roadblocks to achieve his goal-to make his movie, his way. Mark’s vision for his dream film is unlike most in independent filmmaking today.  His inspiration comes from films as desarate as Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Seventh Seal, as well as his experiences growing up amidst the grey skies, rusty cars, and ranch houses of Milwaukee’s Northwest side. AMERICAN MOVIE is the story of filmmaker Mark Borchardt, his mission, and his dream.  Spanning over two years of intense struggle with his film, his family, financial decline, and spiritual crisis, AMERICAN MOVIE is a portrayal of ambition, obsession, excess, and one man’s quest for the American Dream. -Official site Ocena
