From Mongolia…”The Cave Of The Yellow Dog”…

No violence!

A movie so intelligent, that did not use violence to keep the viewer’s interest.

No script. No lines. No actors. No expectations. No limitations.

Just LIFE itself… seen with respect and astonishment.

For this amazing film, director Byambasuren Davaa brings nothing but her eyes, her ears, her camera, and her observant profound respect to this beloved land of her ancestors.

In this land, she finds Life telling its own story of birth and rebirth, of ephemeral comforts, legends – and dangers galore to the fragile -yet so sturdy- human life.

Its own stories of  love unending.

Extremely complex in its apparent simplicity. Elegantly nomadic, marvelously  innocent, profoundly wise, most fascinating story that seems to link ALL to everything. EveryOne to love. That LOVE that is totally interchangeable with LIFE.

Peace, beauty and learning other ways are gifts that come with this viewing.

At Huber’s INN, Robert and I, if we may, highly recommend it… : )

FADOS… a film by Carlos Saura…

My goodness!

Saura does it again.

What a plunge into cinema, and dance, and choreography, and music, and history, and geography!…and more than anything, what a plunge into love!!!

He dares, he knows and he does.

Old classic sounds, aged faces with fresh voices, fresh faces with olden sung stories, instruments never seen -and those never seen so beautiful…all convey to his calling.

All dress in nostalgias and forms of art that had not been seen before.

Yet another splendid study of the soul of dances, by Saura.

Not to be missed:

The Movie Tonight: “Une Education Manquée”… : )

Tonight, our friend, Poet Sharon Lia brought “Une Education Manquée” by Chabrier/Milhaud, from the Library. Delight!

It’s part of the “Collection ‘L’Opéra Francais” -by the Théatre Impérial Compiegne. Théatre Francais de la Musique. Pierre Jourdan. (I just write all this because it’s very fun to read it in French…Ha-ha-ha! ;) But what really matters is to watch the little darling Operetta.

Two questions come up for me…What is more amazing:

How sexy naivete can (has always) be/en?…

How naive passion can be -and still be sexy?

And the music: Absolutely lovely (as the theater,  characters and the Interpreters of the characters).

This charming, complex Operetta from Emmanuel Chabrier (1841-1894), and Darius Milhaud (1892-1974) is sooo unique you might not want to miss the experience!…(We are glad we didn’t!)…Thank Ü, Sharon Lia! : )

The Movie Tonight: “Benjamin Button”… : )

What a fine surprise this magical, technical, philosophical, cinematographical movie this “Curious Case of Benjamin Button” movie is!

Specially surprising to me because I had admired Cate Blanchet’s acting many a time; but had never seen Brad Pitt act.

My goodness…He embodies this man who was “born under unusual circumstances…”

How would life be if some of us grew old and some of us un-grew young?

How would we perceive ourselves, and how would we see the other group?

Would we have  anything to give each other?…To share with each other?…To learn from each other?

What if members of each of the groups were to fall in love with members of the other?

What if they had children amongst them?

How do you tell a story with these and many more questions, in taste, intelligence, amazement, high professional standards?…

Director David Fincher did!

Not to be missed.

We thank our friend, Poet -and cinephile- Don Roberts for the lending… Very enjoyed! : )

The Pic Tonight… “The Shift”

Tonight we saw the movie we received in the mail this week -as part of our Spiritual Cinema Circle membership, “The Shift”; with Dr. Wayne Dyer.

The producer is Louise Hay House

This splendid movie, we thought, is VERY intelligent, daring, courageous, heart quenching,  beautiful.

Although very complex-  non-assuming, and told with such clarity and simplicity, that only genius provides.  Again: VERY intelligent  story.

Absolutely natural acting by everyone -including the “star” Wayne Dyer, doing his first movie at 68 : )

Impeccable direction by Michael Goorjian.

Ear-catching music.

All subtle, everyday-like – and surprisingly charged with powers movie.

Whether you are a reader -watching a movie- or a cinephile, you probably will consider it a “must see”.
