Films this year so Far

1ST PoSt of NeW yEaR

Okay so my New Year resolution is to write down every film Ive watched this year, i have already five days in watched twelve films so I just best keep watching. Im going to post them on here and write tiny snippets about them just to give you an idea and me in the future the films I have observed and enjoyed or even disliked a little.


1st film of the year was : 'Bronco Bullfrog'
I bought it and it cost me £12 and was debating whether this day an age of online streaming It was really necessary for me to spend so much money on over 2 hours of my work wage haha . I did I couldn't resist reading the back. I made my grandad watch parts of it and he showed me in the scenes where he use to deliver bread and round where he use to live being a propa cockney boy himself. I really enjoyed the film I love the way people use to speak and how it amazes me voices change over time and how cinema is really the only proof of that. Its a coming of age film about a boy called Dell and his mates and how he gets up to trouble and falls in love with a young girl.






2nd film was: 'Blow Up' 


Wish I understood the significant of the mime yutes Im gonna have to research that.
David Hemmings really reminds me of Michael Pitt in this film both have amazing piercing blue eyes.

Directed by the infamous Michelangelo Antonioni who I indefinitely need to watch more films this year of as I've never really absorbed much of his work and by god and I'm regretful I haven't, know worries though I will have plenty of time too. The film starred the young Jane Birkin who is slightly unnoticeable and her the famous naked fight scene. The film is about a photographer who captures a murder in a park. The strange thing is when I was watching it I would pause whenever I saw street names to see where it was filmed and it was filmed not that far away in Greenwich some scenes.


3rd film was another by Michelangelo Antonioni also the famous 'Zabrinskie Point' 





which soundtrack produced by Pink Floyd was super intense and the last scene ingenious and many of the scenes I realised were replicated in plenty of other mainstream movies 'yawn'. But other amazing directors like Xavier Dolan must have pulled influence from this film when all the clothes are exploding floating calmly through the air in his film but very closely shot like at the end of this film. I loved the colours and everything about.


 It also stared the amazing Kathleen Cleaver, I always wonder how Antonioni cast's his actors.
