FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-kundun-1997-rating-80-dvd145 In the middle of Kundun, the 13th Dalai Lama warns the 14th Dalai Lama in a letter: The culture of Tibet will soon be destroyed by China. What can we do about it, asks the 14th Dalai Lama. An advisor tells him that he knows this. After all, he wrote the letter himself. This is literally how the belief in reincarnation, in rebirth, works. Kundun recounts the life of the 14th Dalai Lama - but that in turn encompasses a larger life spanning centuries. And this is precisely the strength and weakness of the film, as its main character Kundun is not shown as a human being, but as an icon. It is a sacred life that stands above time. It is about perfection in the form of a human being. Before you look at Kundun, you should be aware of this: No human character is shown here. A sacred story is told in anecdotes, almost like in church. Scorsese's films always have a spiritual component. They are about characters who live in sin and are aware of it. So Kundun begins in 1937, at the time of the 13th Dalai Lama in Tibet. The monks find a little boy who they believe to be their reincarnated leader. They place a series of objects in front of the child so that he chooses the right one. As a result, the 13th Dalai Lama will even meet Mao, who proclaims that all religion has died (so that the Dalai Lama can no longer look this man in the eye and instead has to look him in the eye).

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-crow-1994-rating-80-dvd4199 The Crow became famous, of course, because Brandon Lee was accidentally shot during filming. And indeed, the film is also about someone who comes back from the dead - just as, in a way, Brandon Lee did with the film. A black irony of fate! The story begins with a resurrection from the dead. Rock star Eric Draven (Lee) is murdered the night before his wedding. A crow - so the story goes - transports his soul into the afterlife. But because of the unexplained incident of his murder, Eric's soul finds no peace and returns to earth a year later on Halloween. Eric swears revenge. Nothing more needs to be written about the story. In flashbacks, the murder is reconstructed and then Eric, led by the crow, wanders the streets at night. His make-up resembles a skull. No bullet can harm him, because he is already dead. The story serves as an excuse for the STYLE of the film, because here a very unique world is created that resembles that of Blade Runner. An abandoned urban wasteland where it is always night. Who remembers the gothic extravaganzas in Tim Burton's Batman? This is all so much darker! Obviously The Crow shows inspiration from a number of graphic novels of its time and their over-the-top architecture, and the underlying graphic novels in turn love 40s film noir. The editing and soundtrack of The Crow, however, are reminiscent of music videos, in which the villains like Myca (Bai Ling) again almost look like someone drew them. Those who love 90s grunge will find Stone Temple Pilots, Pantera or Nine Inch Nails here. Probably some even know the soundtrack better than the film! What is said about death and resurrection between the music video numbers is given a melancholic subtext by Brandon Lee's misfortune. Just like his famous father's career, Brandon's ends far too soon - only that Bruce Lee was never allowed to be part of such a great film as The Crow.

Film List on our own page https://www.cinegeek.de/tarantino-d%C3%A4nemark cinegeek.de incl. our catalogue + all our recommendations: Tarantino in Denmark. The Olsen Gang is probably the first well-known crime comedy from the North. At the end of the 60s, it is also a parody of the Danish s*x film wave and the Olsen Gang are regularly seen in brothels. The first film is also very different from its successors in other respects and works as a James Bond parody with furious action interludes. Some 30 years later, screenwriter and director Anders Thomas Jensen created his very own universe of crime thriller and comedy: They Eat Dogs in China, Flickering Lights, Old Men in New Cars, Danish Delicacies - a whole series of gangster comedies starring Mads Mikkelsen and Kim Bodnia were penned by the workaholic. The crude sarcasm and bizarre humor of these comedies about crazy, incompetent gangsters make them the Danish answer to Quentin Tarantino's cinema.

Nouvelle Vague Exzess https://www.cinegeek.de/nouvelle-vague-exzess-0 The One Man Nouvelle Vague was the title of a retro at Berlin's Arsenal, which looked at Gerard Depardieu's early career. After four films by Maguerite Duras, he made his breakthrough in Bertrand Blier's Les valseuses. A rebellious road movie that takes everything that is understood by s*xual revolution ad absurdum and, in its drastic nature, ushers in the French cinema of the 70s.

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-red-squirrel-das-rote-eichh%C3%B6rnchen-la-ardilla-roja-1993-rating-80-dvd727 Most of the time I watch a movie and can finish it from the first scene. This film by Julio Medem is different. I never know what might come next. But La ardilla roja is much more than just a vetrickstes mindgame movie. It is a big love movie! The musician Jota (Nancho Novo) stands on a bridge to take his own life because his girlfriend left him. Suddenly a young motorcyclist (Emma Suárez) breaks through the railing and lands in the sand. He rushes to help her, but she can't remember anything. In the hospital he pretends to be a friend of the blonde and explains that her name is Lisa. They had been living together for four years. To remember, he suggests a camping holiday. La ardilla roja is the name of the campsite and from now on the squirrels will determine the fate of the couple. Julio Medem has succeeded in creating a highly unlikely, but very captivating romance. He has us until the last moment and surprises us again and again. Nothing is as it seems, except the fact that the two of them have a passionate love affair. The lies Jota Lisa tells about her "past" aren't just passively accepted by her. Finally Lisa's ex-husband Felix (Carmelo Gomez) comes into play, who identifies her as Sofia Fuentes... Maybe it's all filmed a bit awkward and even ridiculous towards the end? But that doesn't matter at all because of the great love couple. In the face of death, they try to find out the basics: Who am I? What does love mean at all? Within their web of lies they get to the bottom of life.

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE Claude Sautet - Un Coeur En Hiver. https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-heart-winter-ein-herz-im-winter-un-coeur-en-hiver-1992-rating-85-omeu-dvd115 There are people who can't love. Why is unclear. Something is missing. They were simply born without this gift. In other areas they may be complete. But the gift to love is missing. Irreparable. Claude Sautet's "Un Coeur En Hiver" is the story of such a man. His name is Stephane (Daniel Auteuil) and he is a talented violin maker. Stephane admires Maxime (Andre Dussollier), for whom he also works. They are friends. Or is it not? In any case, Maxime's social skills serve Stephane as a shield against the world. In return, Maxime benefits from Stephen's extraordinary skill. A symbiosis. One day the beautiful violinist Camille (porcelain face Emmanuelle Beart) enters the shop. She needs help with her instrument. Soon she has an appointment with Maxime. Stephane observes this from a distance. Then Camille talks to Stephane about her instrument, but also about her life. Stephane is a good listener. And Camille has fallen in love with him. She is together with Maxime. She has to leave him and make an appointment with his partner. Stephane feels flattered. Yes, he desires Camille. That would be a nice ending for a French triangle story. Only Stephane doesn't stand up for Camille. He is not impotent in the physical sense. He lacks the gift to love. Claude Sautet shows this short story with great intensity. We become aware of how simple love is portrayed in the vast majority of films. And how annoying! Man meets woman. They fall in love. There is a conflict, then they reconcile. Rolltitel. But Stephane has needs that go beyond love. Needs like the convenience of staying alone. His daily routine. That counts more for him than the risk of an intimate relationship.

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-einfach-zu-haben-easy-2010-rating-80-dvd1383 What is the morale of Easy A? Don't sleep with anyone, but tell everyone you're doing it with everyone? We have to get involved in a very American film that comes up with virginal Jesus fanatics - but above all with a tremendously likeable Emma Stone. Olive Penderghast (Stone) is an inconspicuous girl in high school. Although we are in East Ojai, California, the biggest surprise of the movie is that virginity has the highest priority at this school! Olive is ashamed to have spent the whole weekend alone at home and improvises for her best friend the tale of a date with an older student. To increase her own popularity, she crowns this story with the loss of her virginity. A seemingly sure thing, because nobody knows her one-night stand at the university. But Olive is overheard by Marianne, an honest religious classmate. She tells Olive's story all around as a warning: "Not to end like the spoiled Olive! Easy A now plays through this basic idea in different variations. Olive's parents Dill and Rosemary (Stanley Tucci and Patricia Clarkson), who are as quirky as they are open, also find out about the news. Throughout the film they seem like Olive's strongest support, but also a bit like a parallel world from the time of the'68 revolution. There's been a lot of changes at school for Olive: She is no longer the girl that nobody notices (quite unimaginable with a beauty like Emma Stone!), but the one who has experience with s*x! Olive is starting to take advantage of her popularity. Her best friend Brandon is gay. Everyone knows this and yet Brandon tries to hide it to live "normally". During a party she arranges a fake s*x date for her boyfriend, so that he will also find recognition as an experienced young man in the future. It's hard to believe a gay man in California couldn't do that today! But let's just imagine this East Ojai as a place that serves primarily to make this high school comedy possible. Olive starts to lend her fictional s*xuality to others: To the fat, the outsiders, those who perceive their school days as a nightmare. Thanks to Olive, they rise to men with s*x experience. (Why is nobody really surprised that she only sleeps with g**s and nerds?). Easy A works in itself, because we are well introduced into this East Ojai world. Overnight, Olive gains the power to improve the reputation of others and help those in need. Even the trust teacher (and wife of Olive's favorite teacher) is among her clients because she slept with a student and now suffers from chlamydia. From now on Olive borrows the "A" from Nathaniel Hawthorne's novel The Scarlet Letter. Similar to the novel character, Olive will get to know the dark side of people... In the course of the plot, Olive suffers from the increasing gossip and the fact that her life is unfortunately not staged like an 80s teen comedy. Easy A, this is the first role that really suits Emma Stone! Until then they had been underestimated - wrongly so, because you can only do justice to an actor when you get the right role.

Liebe Nachbarn, wir drehen gerade einen Film über unsere Filmkunstbar Fitzcarraldo und bräuchten dafür noch eigene Filme und Fotos aus dem Kreuzberg der 80er und 90er. Wer was hat?

17/07/2024

SOOOOOOON!!!! Our Own Movie About Our Bar: Realität Bleibt Draussen! - Reality Stays Outside! Ich liebe Kreuzberg und mein Leben in Kreuzberg! Das war aber nicht immer so: Früher, als ich noch klein war und wir in einer eingemauerten Stadt lebten, da hatte ich Angst vor Kreuzberg. Dort war alles grau und die Häuser ganz verwahrlost. Und wenn du in die Hinterhöfe geguckt hast, dann hast du immer noch die Einschusslöcher aus dem 2. Weltkrieg gesehen. Eigentlich sah Kreuzberg genauso aus wie Ost Berlin. So dachte ich. Ich meine, das war 1985. Ich hatte immer diese Vorstellung, dass hinter solchen grauen Fassaden auch böse Menschen leben mussten. In Wahrheit lebten dahinter aber keine bösen Menschen, sondern Menschen, die einfach nicht so viel verdienten. Mein Vater hat mir das mal erklärt. In Kreuzberg war man immer umgeben von der Mauer. Ganz im Osten von West-Berlin. Und niemand wollte so nahe bei den Russen leben. So zogen alle weg, rückten nach Westen – zumindest innerhalb der West-Berliner Insel. Dann kamen die sogenannten Gastarbeiter. Die konnten ja dort leben. Jedenfalls endete Kreuzberg irgendwie immer an der Mauer. Sogar 20 Jahre später sah Kreuzberg noch so aus als ob die 80er nie aufgehört hätten. Eine Gegend, in der die berüchtigten SO36 Boys herrschten. Hauptberuf der 36 Boys: Rauben, prügeln, kaputt machen. Das war also Kreuzberg. Heute höre ich oft diese mittelalten Männer, die behaupten, früher und damals da gabs noch das richtige Kreuzberg. Und dieselben mittelalten Männer haben das damals auch schon erzählt. Mir war das eh egal. Ich lebte in meiner eigenen Welt und die bestand sowieso nur daraus, Filme zu glotzen. Meine eigene kleine Nerd Welt inmitten von Filmen! Und ich wusste, irgendwann würde diese Welt nicht mehr nur in meiner Fantasie existieren! - I love Kreuzberg and my life in Kreuzberg! But it wasn't always like that: In the past, when I was little and we lived in a walled-in city, I was afraid of Kreuzberg. Everything there was gray and the houses were run-down. And when you looked into the backyards you could still see the bullet holes from the Second World War. Kreuzberg actually looked just like East Berlin. That's what I thought. I mean, that was 1985. I always had this idea that bad people had to live behind such gray facades. had to live behind such gray facades. In reality, however, there weren't bad people living behind them, but people who simply didn't earn that much. earned that much. My father once explained this to me. In Kreuzberg, you were always surrounded by the wall. Right in the East of West Berlin. And nobody wanted to live so close to the Russians. So everyone moved away, moved west - at least within the West Berlin island. Then came the so-called guest workers. They could live there. In any case, Kreuzberg somehow always ended at the Wall. Even 20 years later, Kreuzberg still looked as if the 80s had never ended. A neighborhood, where the infamous SO36 Boys ruled. The 36 Boys' main occupation: robbing, beating, destroying destroy. So that was Kreuzberg. Today, I often hear these middle-aged men claiming that back in the day and back then there was still the real Kreuzberg. And these same middle-aged men said that back then told that back then too. I didn't care anyway. I lived in my own world and that only consisted of watching movies anyway. My own little nerd world surrounded by movies! And I knew that at some point this world would no longer only exist in my imagination!

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE Transmaerica Transamerica presents Felicity Huffman as a man who feels compelled to become a woman. Only a week after the operation, Bree (as she is now called) learns that she had become a father 17 years earlier. "There was this one girl in college," Bree remembers, but also points out that the whole story was so tragic le***an that she wouldn't count. But now she counts: Bree has to get to know her son and embarks on a journey from L.A. to New York. There she meets Toby (Kevin Zegers), who wants to become a p**n star. This career choice is embarrassing for Bree, a ladylike middle-class conservative. She convinces Tobey to go back to L.A. with her. I suspect most transgender people have little interest in homos*xuality. Bree has overpowered little s*x as she earns the money for her operation with two jobs. Bree is not a particularly exciting person anyway. She spends a lot of time improving Tobey's grammar and is dressed like a housewife.

The Edge Of Seventeen https://www.cinegeek.de/edge-seventeen-teenager-kom%C3%B6dien-00er-10er Do you like teen comedies that don't tax your intelligence? Like The Edge Of Seventeen? Then this is your film list! - Sure, I'm a child of the 80s. Maybe that's why I became a video librarian? Of course I still know the best dialogue from the teen comedies of the time - although I forget pretty much everything else. The brain just works in a miraculous way. The Edge Of Seventeen feels like an homage to the 80s with biting humour and a big bittersweet heart. Kelly Fremon Craig, who makes her directorial debut as well as writing the film, seems to remember all the difficult, angst-filled moments of being a teenager. That narcissistic phase where everything that happens to you seems so insanely important! The worst thing: to create an identity, to survive school! In this sense, The Edge Of Seventeen is much darker than its 80s role models.

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE It's a fact: if you put Brendan Gleeson in any role, he'll bring it to life. In this case, he plays a cop, the Gaelic word for policeman being guarda. His name is Sgt Gerry Boyle and we meet him as he searches a victim's clothes for drugs and quickly pockets everything. Boyle is not a bad cop, just a bad one. At least he loves his mum, which is a good sign. Her name is Eileen Boyle (Fionnula Flanagan) and she's dying, but whenever Boyle visits her, she comes back to life. And when they talk, they basically say the F-word incessantly, as if it were a sentence sign. Boyle drinks while he works. He never overstays his welcome and makes friends with pr******tes. But all this takes an unpleasant turn for Boyle when the straight-laced McBride (Rory Keenan) is transferred from Dublin to the country. He, of all people, is to become Boyle's partner (and Boyle hates everything from Dublin). A big drugs deal is on the cards. Half a million is at stake, give or take, and the FBI sends Everett (Don Cheadle) to Ireland. Everett is an even worse partner! Boyle, moreover, is not a real racist, but he is naive in his dealings with black people. He believes that Everett must be an expert on life in the ghetto, as Boyle has seen on television. Gleeson's gift as an actor lies precisely in his ability to make all these outrageous statements.

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE We travel back to Poland around 1960, to a rural area. There is a rather remote monastery where 18-year-old novice Anna (Agata Trzebuchowska) lives. Little is said behind the walls, neither while eating, nor during Anna's work on a statue of Christ. Have Anna take her vows in a few days. But before she returns to the city to visit her Aunt Wanda (Agata Kulesza). We experience her with curious eyes in the tram and finally Anna faces her exact opposite: Wanda drinks, loves men and wants nothing to do with family. Wanda explains to Anna that her real name is Ida and she is Jewish. But her parents were murdered. Although she would rather send Anna back to the monastery, Wanda decides to search for the traces of her relatives with her niece. Ida is a journey into the past: that of the German occupation, but also into the dark Stalin era.

How a 16-year-old girl from Russia is abandoned by her mother and falls in love with a handsome stranger. Hoping for a better future, Lilja moves to Sweden, where she is imprisoned as a pr******te. Lilja is naive and innocent. We know that she is in danger. But Lilja thinks that this is necessary for her survival. The fact that the story of Lilja is not an isolated case breaks my heart all the more! Lukas Moodysson's Lilja 4ever is one of the saddest and most moving movies of all time! Lilya (Oksana Akinshina) grows up somewhere in the former Soviet Union. In a desolate prefabricated housing estate, as we do not know it as Berliners. Her best friend is called Volodya (Artyom Bogucharsky) and has to play basketball with a can because he doesn't have a ball. Lilja's mother confesses to her daughter that she is engaged again. Her husband would take her to America, but Lilja couldn't be the same. The daughter is to follow. The mother is heartless. A woman born in a society as cold as it is desperate. The scene in which she leaves Lilja and the daughter runs behind the car, screaming, I could never forget again. I have to think about it and feel a dumpling in my throat. The moment Lilja lives alone at home, her aunt comes to see her. She throws the child out; from now on Lilja is "allowed" to live in her aunt's barrack. Is there a better environment somewhere? Anyway, Lilja won't find them. Instead she is having sniff parties with her friends. Volodya also lives on the street since his father threw him out. He talks about s*x, as children do, and Lilja adopts the six-year-old like a big sister. Her way into prostitution doesn't surprise us. Without money for food...

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE Asghar Farhadi - About Elly https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-about-elly-alles-%C3%BCber-elly-darbareye-elly-2009-rating-90-dvd7673 One of Asghar Farhadi's guiding themes is to challenge s*xual politics in contemporary Iran. Perhaps that is what makes his films so disturbing? But it is also what distinguishes him from the great directors of Iran who began their careers twenty years earlier. So you will find the role models of About Elly here with us in Europe. Do you still remember Roman Polanski's very first feature film? Or Michelangelo-Antonioni's "L'Avventura"? What these films had in common was that they closely observed the dynamics within a group. How does something like group guilt arise? Here it is a circle of friends from the Iranian middle class. They all come from Tehran. Together with their children they went to the sea. A weekend vacation. It was the lively Sepideh (Iran's biggest star Golshifteh Farahani) who invited Elly (Taraneh Alidoosti). No one in the group knows Elly any closer. She is the teacher of her children, that's it. Of course, Sepideh had something in mind and that was to set Elly up. Perhaps to the recently divorced Ahmad (Shahab Hosseini), who has just returned from a business trip from Germany? Elly and Ahmad even have a longer conversation with each other. But the story won't be that straightforward. It strikes a right angle. The group giggles, people talk about Elly's forthcoming wedding. Even Sepideh is involved and we feel uncomfortable. We - the audience - witness something unpleasant. All this seems to go beyond mere blasphemy. Elly leaves the room. There is a crisis and then Elly just disappears. Without a trace. Ellie is just gone. Now all the lies and secrets that exist beneath the surface come out. Elly's bizarre disappearance is said to have had repercussions... And we're already in the middle of a major psychogram!

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE Lemon Tree There is a lack of empathy these days and instead of empathy there is a WE against THEM. A lack of empathy for the victims of the terrorist attack by Hamas on 7 October on the one hand and a lack of compassion for the civilian victims of the war in Gaza, led by Netanyahu's right-wing extremist government on the other. Only cinema can help! Films like Lemon Tree, which modernises the story of King Ahab from the Old Testament. Ahab covets his neighbour's vineyard. In this case, however, Ahab is the Minister of Defence of Israel, who moves into a house near a lemon grove. The lemons are the only source of income for a widow from Palestine. For security reasons, Ahab claims, the lemon trees are to be cut down. Unlike him, however, his wife sympathises with the widow. A parable of the daily insults, injustices and injuries that agents of Israel inflict on their neighbours from Palestine. An opportunity for us to feel what we at best read in the serious press and at worst on social media. https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-lemon-tree-etz-limon-2008-rating-80-dvd8581

Hippie Decade on CINEGEEK.DE https://www.cinegeek.de/hippie-%C3%A4ra Nothing is more unpleasant when adults behave like children in the movie. When it gets madly greasy, both romp through a park and feed the swans and giggle all the time. Michelangelo Antonioni has expressed his deep insights into how cultivated boredom sucks every life out of man in a series of masterpieces from the 50s and early 60s. Then he accidentally became world famous as a pop art icon. For Zabriskie Point he finally went to Hollywood. Antonioni had found his style. He staged movies of great emptiness, which probably nobody understood completely. They were movies from the upper middle class. Now he felt obliged to make a film about the hippie era. A victim of the late 60's which made so many great authors into "engaged" filmmakers. But Antonioni is not an activist and his talent is not to pick up political topics. Antonioni's figures always seemed so incredibly blocked - paralyzed. But in Zabriskie Point they raise their voices - and sound empty. The actors do not act together. They have narcissistic self-talks. The hero from Zabriskie Point makes a radical impromptu speech (without any motivation) and then decides to intervene personally (without any motivation). Maybe he killed a policeman (but we know what a murder of Antonioni can be like). He steals a plane, flees into the desert and picks up a beautiful girl. He circles her a few times, then both run into the dunes and love each other. In the lowest point of the USA, in Zabriskie Point (note the symbolic content). The s*x scenes seem to have been copied from other movies, without any real feeling or even joie de vivre. We simply watch as a couple of lovers roll around in the sand. A ridiculously long sequence. What's the next step? Our hero paints his plane with psychedelic colors. He flies back to Los Angeles and is murdered by policemen. It's not easy to follow Zabriskie Point, but the film is basically that simple. Besides, Antonioni shows how corrupt and corrupt America is (to be noticed by public attacks). It remains to be seen that Antonioni has no feeling for how young people are. In his Italian films, he showed us adults. In Zabriskie Points we see kids rolling up and down the sand dunes.

FREE ON CINEGEEK.DE https://www.cinegeek.de/free-youtube-jackie-brown-1997-rating-90-dvd2134 Ordell thinks long and hard. The camera lets him, just holds on to it. "It's Jackie Brown!" Odell is right. It was Jackie Brown who stole the $500,000. It's unusual that a black gun dealer in the movie even gets the chance to think. With Tarantino, however, things are quite different. He has filmed the novel of the same name by Elmore Leonard, in which all the protagonists are clever. A question of survival, the smartest one will make it. Jackie (Pam Grier) knows that she has to look naïve in order to survive. Ordell (Samuel L. Jackson) would kill her immediately. She's cunning, like everyone else in Tarantino's movie. The bail bondsman (Robert Forster), the AFT agent (Michael Keaton) - they all know what happens. Just ask if they're fast enough to keep up with Jackie. With Jackie Brown, Quentin Tarantino not only proved that he was more than a hype! His third film remains his best! Never again did he arrange such perfect scenes as those between the constantly stoned ex-Con (Robert de Niro) and Ordell's lover (Bridget Fonda) discussing a photo in Ordell's booth. Never again did Tarantino stage such a precise production! Although mistakes in suitcases have been popular since the 60s, it's not the plot that convinces here. It's the structure of the film. Jackie Brown, 44 years old, works for the worst airline as a stewardess. She also smuggles money for Ordell. Then Beaumont (Chris Tucker) is caught and the AFT (personified by Michael Keaton) is on her heels. She is arrested. But Ordell sends the bail bondsman Max Cherry (Robert Forster) to buy her out. Here begins the great love story, the heart of the film. Slowly the affection between the two grows (in a worse movie a s*x scene would have spoiled everything). Jackie fears to be murdered by Ordell. She has to kill him first, but she's not a killer. In Gunde Max knows that Jackie is using him. Nevertheless, her feelings are real. Jackie is helpless. She can't help it. We get to know all these characters (and in most thrillers they just get to know each other). I think the fact that Tarantino lets us participate in his characters makes the difference! That's what makes his movies "cult movies". Tarantino's strengths are his dialogues and his timing. And of course his casting! Pam Grier, the s*x bomb of the Blaxploitation cinema of the 70s, seems tired and desperate here. It still attracts everyone's attention, but Jackie knows life. Robert Forster as a security agent plays the role of his life! A quietly working professional and a sensitive, melancholic lover. Samuel L. Jackson seems even colder and more dangerous than ever before and Robert de Niro can be simply stupid. One of the best is the almost invisible performance of Bridget Fonda, who is only interested in one thing: being high. At the time, some people said Jackie Brown was too long. They're just the ones who can't cope with old-fashioned movies. On the other hand, I wish Tarantino's characters would talk to each other, cheat and live much longer.

Our Story

CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY at Filmkunstbar Fitzcarraldo. Contact: [email protected] or: facebook message Willkommen! ... und schön, dass Du vorbeischaust in der Filmkunstbar Fitzcarraldo! Aber velleicht kennen wir uns auch schon? Früher waren wir die alte Filmkunst-Videothek in Friedrichshain. Nach einem Zwischenspiel im "Roderich" in der Glogauer Str. findet man uns nun in Kreuzberg in der Reichenberger Str. 133 wieder, nun erweitert um eine Bar im dekadenten Stil, wo vor Oscar-Wilde-Tapete ein alter Wolpertinger über das Geschehen wacht. Was erwartet Dich bei uns? Zunächst einmal eine gutsortierte, bestens ausgestattete Programm- und Off-Videothek mit Filmen aus aller Welt, allen Genres und allen Zeiten. Wir selbst nennen das "Cinethek" - ihr sucht gutes asiatisches Kino, französische Dramen, klassisches Hollywood, künstlerisch ambitioniertes Avantgarde-Kino, wilde Gruselstreifen, interessante Dokumentarfilme oder einfach nur das, was ihr vor wenigen Monaten beim Programmkino um die Ecke verpasst habt? Kein Problem, haben wir alles da - und wenn ihr so gar nicht weiter wisst, hilft Euch unser Personal. Wer zuhause nach Tips stöbern will, schaut zum Beispiel auf unserer Webpage cinegeek.de nach, wo wir alle Tips, Hinweise und YouTube-Videos posten, die Euch vielleicht Appetit auf mehr machen. Außerdem findet Ihr hier in der Spalte zum Stöbern (Featured Movies) komfortabel zusammengestellte links zu Filmen, die unserem Personal ganz besonders ans Herz gewachsen sind sowie unser gesamtes DVD Sortiment. Alles, was neu in den Laden kommt, findet ihr immer hier. Dann sind wir aber auch eine Bar im alten Stil. Dekadent im Ambiente, bodenständig in der Auswahl: Unkompliziert und entspannt statt fancy und nervös, wirklich vintage statt teuer nachgekauft. Nachmittags könnt Ihr locker zum Kaffee abhängen. Abends kann es schon mal etwas voller werden, ganz im alten Kreuzberger Stil. Und warum Fitzcarraldo? Weil wir einfach ein Herz für größenwahnsinnige Visionen haben. Wir hoffen, Ihr auch! Jedenfalls, wir sehen uns, Eure "Fitzcarraldos" (verfasst von Thomas Groh)
