My Favorite Movies
No matter how good a movie is I can never give them a full 5 stars.. Somehow there's always a flaw in every movie.

Malena 2000, R)
This might sound weird but this is the first movie that made me to start paying attention about European cinema, call me late, but hey fuck you too. Malena is one of the best coming-of-age movie I've ever seen, in fact it's very underrated. Critic loves Tornatore's Cinema Paradiso more, but this is just as good as Cinema Paradiso. Ennio Morricone's scores just never fail to impress me. Monica Bellucci is the star of this movie, in fact, SHE is the movie. Giuseppe Sulfaro portrayal of little boy obsessed with the town's most hated woman is also unforgettable. I could watch this movie over and over again and still loves every second of it. |

Tokyo Story (Tôkyô monogatari) 1953, Unrated)
It doesn't need too many problems or complicated stuff to make a great drama, Ozu has proven that he can make one of the best drama with very simple lifelike family matter. It doesn't try to be melancholic but we as the viewer can feel the melancholy feeling. This movie sure will leave some something after you watch it. |

Revolutionary Road 2008, R)
This is one of the best movie of the year. This is the first movie that makes me don't even care about the story (which is quite depressing) and just watched the two main casts' acting... Leonardo diCaprio deserves a fucking Oscar for his amazing performance here (Kate already got it). I can feel the deep sadness and emptiness from both of them. What a comeback from world's most favorite couple. Definitely a must watch. |

The Shawshank Redemption 1994, R)
One of the best cheer up movie ever made. Morgan Freeman's narration is one of the key to this movie's greatness and along with Tim Robbin's amazing acting. and I love that old man Brooks with his heartbreaking story, it's a shame they didn't win any Oscar. The tagline for this movie: sweetest revenge rules.. |

Moulin Rouge! 2001, PG-13)
Baz Luhrmann's best movie ever. He reached the peak of his directing skill in this movie. He just successfully combining all genre of music from soul, pop, rock to classic, the set is also amazing, it's big, colorful and luxuriously beautiful. Ewan McGregor might not be a great singer but I just love him, and Nicole Kidman can never look more elegant. Two words to sum up this movie: Spectacular! Spectacular! |

From the Journals of Jean Seberg 1995, Unrated)
Now this is an interesting documentary, Mark Rappaport decided to get another actress to play Jean Seberg and we see the story based on first person point of view, it's like reading Seberg's journal, maybe that's why they call it from the Journal of Jean Seberg. Unlike the usual star's documentary, this one doesn't focus only in Jean's life, it also covers many things from other actress' careers (Jane Fonda & Vanessa Redgrave) to French's New Wave (Jean was the star of Godard's Breathless, one of the pioneer in French's New Wave). As for Jean Seberg's life itself, the life that she had was a pretty tough one, not so successful career, her nervous breakdown problem and even her issue with the FBI. Mary Beth Hurt was also brilliant and she resembles Seberg a lot. |

Holy shit, this is awesome. All the minimalist set reminds me of set for theater, I knew this was gonna be a different kind of movie from the very beginning and I just fell in love with all casts' amazing performance, esp. of course, Nicole fucking Kidman, my fave of all time. oh my, how I love the execution and the ending. Sweet sweet badass revenge. |
