A good film: The Last Valley
November 22nd, 2008
An easy saturday afternoon trying to render my house clean. Clean up the bathroom, the pavements and so on. The last thing is: iron, a little torture.
So subdue to my destiny I iron watching television and this movie starts: “The Last Valley” with two great actors Micheal Caine and Omar Sharif. A little surprise, a movie that I don’t know.
A story set in the17th centur:
People in a small German village in the last valley to remain untouched by the devastating Thirty Years’ War try to exist in peace with a group of soldiers occupying the valley.
A story about war and a story about religion. A nice surprise in this common afternoon.
And remember as The Captain (Micheal Caine) says Father Sebastian: “God is a legend”.
Ridley Scott’s forever war
October 15th, 2008
I’m born reading science fiction, masterpieces of this genre are not a lot. One of them is Forever War of Joe Haldeman. Now was announced that Ridley Scott will direct a movies based on this novel. The good and old Ridley after the wonderful 70’s (Blade Runner and Alien in primis) tries to say something, and I hope, maybe better I know, it will be very very good.
