One more time I like to recommend something...
This time three films I really liked and still like to watch again...
First: Pricilla Queen of the dessert.... a classic now and a film where you still have more then you thought you could get. The story is played in Australia, most time in the dessert... three man decide to drive with a bus to a place, somewhere deep inside the country to make a show.... First it is just a question of money but then it becomes a story of different lives, how you get it through, about truth or dare and how to deal with people who are different... those three man... first just more or lesson friends become a knit community. There's a lot to laugh, some parts to cry and yes....music.... not only ABBA- to be true, just two songs are from ABBA, but the film has the feeling like you would listen to one of the best music for one hour or two.... and so this film is a bit like a fairy tale too... you will surely leave it with a smile...
Second: Volver... I must confess I could recommend next to all films of Pedro Almodovar. But this one is my second favorite. Like All about my mother has this film a lot of different characters and a story so deep inside the human nature. You feel Spain and power and so much to laugh and cry. Volver is maybe the film showing Almodovar to the nearest at his home place. With good drawing and slight exaggeration shows he an impressive of the life of the simple people. Yes it is also some kind of love story with the actress Penelope Cruz who plays a mother, a friend, a daughter with a smart mind.. and she needs this fast and smart mind 'cos life did not treat her well. Like Almodovar use to do is the story very complex but all seems so real so right and nothing wrong. He is surely one of the masters of crazy stories to become smart and he has the talent to put them into a life which gets to your heart and if you don't cry when Penelope sings in the film.. well you know nothing about acting and feeling is something you should search.
Thirdly: Saturno Contro.... a film from Italy. Friends celebrate together and then the drama starts... and while the drama goes on... the friends start to ask themselves what they want, need and where they want to be in life. The new situation is puts them on the one hand into a waiting one- a dramatic one but also has a chance to go on. It's a moment to look up and decide. Yes also about what do they expect? The potpourri of people makes this film more then intensive, cos here they give us - the watcher- a chance to see yourself. The story could play everywhere but be warned... you need a lot of Kleenex.
I cried so much I never did before in a film and this film makes you not only cry from time to time... You could cry most of the time you watch this movie and yes, after the film is finished... you would watch it again.
LOVE & LIGHT
