I'm really excited to be able to learn about movies that I still don't know and about narrative which is one of my favorite topics ever.

I absolutely love this shot that they were able to achieve with this new way of capturing every day life and details. The idea of the first lady has always interested me, so I really appreciated it.

I was really drawn to the way the documentary was done, specially those parts that explained the way these technological advances were thought and made. For example, when they use the analogy of the clock to refer to one of the technical improvements that were made in the french camera.

I really enjoyed hearing all of this people's stories and points of view. Specially because the were remembering their youth years and all what, in that era, came as part of a very important revolution in cinematic history.

# data[].attributes.body
The whole documentary refers to the past and people's anecdotes and memories in a very nostalgic and respectful way. I enjoyed learning about something that I didn't know while referring to the people themselves, which I believe is a truly lucky position.

I learned a lot about the evolution of cameras and I was surprised to find out how heavy, complicated and different the process of filming was. It really made me appreciate all the facilities that we have nowadays, like the iPhone with amazingly high quality cameras, as well as excited to find out what will the future bring to us.

One of the scenes I also enjoyed was the game both Kelly and Lenny played in order to get closer to each other. I found it really interesting that the movie didn't, at any point, showed nude bodies, specially in this scene where it was the main focus; it managed to do it by different angle camera shots and dramatic lighting.

# data[].attributes.body
I really enjoyed this scene because of they way it was done: Absolutely all of the dialogue exchange in only one shot with no cuts or close-ups added. I believe this way, me as a spectator, was able to understand the whole situation in a wider perspective by seeing all of the characters' reactions.

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the way this musical leitmotiv was used at the begging, throughout and at the end of the movie as a way of depicting romantic love at its fullest.

# data[].attributes.body
I really liked the direction of the film, specially the vibe it was able to portray and make me feel. Aside from the topic and the story, which I find really interesting as well, I felt a good, warm and somehow nostalgic feeling while watching it.

Third Cinema is a latin american film movement that started during the mid 1960's and 1970's. It is recognized as a strong rejection towards neocolonialism, capitalism, imperialism and the Hollywood model of cinema.

# data[].attributes.body
With a stamp of European cinema, art cinema techniques, a modernist style or even fantasy sequences or animation, this movement searched for freedom in all its forms and viewed filming as a political act.

I really liked this quote that the character of Yolanda, the teacher, said. It reflects a genuine worry about the future of the girls in that era, some of them will get married have children, however there's nothing  that's pushing them towards education our pursuing a different destiny than that.

I found really interesting the fact that an ancient myth had such a great impact on the vision cuban people had on women and their way of living. I enjoyed watching this side of their culture and their devotion to their roots.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe there's no better way of understanding social movements than hearing the voice from the oppressed people. Although it isn't the main theme of the film, I believe this scene really captures a progressive way of thinking where a woman with no romantic interest isn't necessarily alone, but perhaps independent.

# data[].attributes.body
I really appreciate the fact that revolution inspired a movement like this. It is with cultural products like this film and this type of narrative that we are able to see with our own eyes a bit of history and the people who came before us.

African cinema

The ability of representing a culture is truly a responsibility and right of the culture itself: To be able to represent themselves by themselves and not through western eyes.

One of the things that really interested me about the film is the pace and rhythm it was able to portray by its quick editing and inserts. Although, most of the shots were still, none of them seemed redundant or unnecessary.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned a lot of new things about African culture with this movie. With each sequence, I felt immersed in the story of the characters, their context, struggles and wishes by the music, clothing, lighting and dialogue.

# data[].attributes.body
Seeing the approach that Africa has over gender roles that are so rooted in its culture was very intriguing. I absolutely loved the fact that the filmmaker spoke to the analysis of it by confronting idea and juxtapose different ideologies and ways of living.

I loved this scene where Cynthia expresses why she doesn't want her voice recorded. I really relate her ideas to the idea of the aura exposed by Walter Benjamin in the works of art. I found it really interesting and, since I am a stage actor, very relatable.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned a lot about what cinema du Look meant and what the movement consisted in. One of the elements that I liked the most was the use of neon lighting which, aside form referring us to the 80s decade, it also works perfectly with each scene and the full aesthetic of the film.

# data[].attributes.body
Without having a lot of musical references, I believe the movie still was able to capture the essence of the music world in that era and how it looked and felt.

# data[].attributes.body
The whole movie reminded me a lot of this song, which is one of my personal favorites. Without even trying, it came to mind while watching it.

I loved the contrast between the elegancy of the whole concert and dress, and the classic background reminiscent of 80s vibes.

I absolutely adored the construction of each character; from their dialogues to their perfectly chosen costumes, makeup and hair.

Soviet cinema

I found really interesting the way the director approached the future in specific moments. For instance, when she showed one of the possible futures where one of the soldiers died if he tried to escape.

# data[].attributes.body
One of my favorite narrative aspects of the movie was the fact that the coughing of one of the main characters, that we had been listening for the first half, was the determining element that got them caught.

# data[].attributes.body
I absolutely loved the way the story incorporated both sides over a big life dilema through the two main characters: Which one is most important, loyalty or life itself? Is it worth living a life when you know you betrayed your ideals for it? How do your priorities affect your destiny?

# data[].attributes.body
I loved the way the first shots were also the last ones.

# data[].attributes.body
I consider the sound of the movie was spot on regarding the music used in the most critical points of the story.

# data[].attributes.body
The most tragic shot of the film was accompanied by the most happy or uplifting carnival-like music.

Great cinematography

# data[].attributes.body
i really enjoyed the close ups on this character, it made the whole movie really interesting and different from other war films that create an heroic and non-realistic view on soldiers.

Reminiscent of the iconic religious tragic images or the finale of Shakespeare's legendary plays, like King Lear.

The fact that his friend is the one in charge of taking his life

Also one of my favorite moments of the film. I believe the ending captures the prioritization of humanity above everything that the film had discussed up to that moment.

Dogma 91

# data[].attributes.body
I appreciate the fact that Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg decided to initiate this movement, defying what was considered correct or normative in filmmaking.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked the fact that the characters represented real and authentic human beings, who don't necessarily have to go through a hero's journey or transmit bravery. They were organic human beings that made mistakes, felt happy, comfortable and even had to make tough decisions that truly affect them.

# data[].attributes.body
My favorite part is that every connection made within the persons presented in the film related directly to the movement itself. They were genuine, not romanticized, exaggerated or over the top. Although it's not something that usually or particularly interests me, I believe in this case, it worked perfectly.

# data[].attributes.body
I liked what the story had to say about life, decision making and love. Personally, its take on these topics captured my attention and made me fell immersed in it.

# data[].attributes.body
This recurring moment really intrigued me; I liked the fact that it showed up in critical points for both of the characters involved. When it was finally solved at the end of the film, I felt relieved, comfortable and happy.

# data[].attributes.body
Even though I have never experienced one of the many difficult situations the movie presents, I definitely felt for the characters and became interested in their storylines as the story went along. I liked the fact that they cared about each other as they were all realistic and effortlessly likable.

Perhaps unrealistic, flawed or too good to be true, but definitely perfect.

I really appreciate a cultural product that reflects the everyday life and circumnstances of african american people form the eyes and point of view of an african american director. This makes the whole film feel authentic and organic.

Fantastic camera work.

# data[].attributes.body
The whole experience was absolutely mesmerizing and intriguing. The way color was used un every single sequence was exceptional.

# data[].attributes.body
I believe the characters, although presented in a much more specific environment and punctual aesthetic, felt like genuine, realistic and colorful people, each one of them in their own way. I also believe this realtes directly to the essence of the whole movie.

Before the chaos.

# data[].attributes.body
As well as the hair and makeup. I think every element was cohesive and went extremely well with the space and movement of the characters.

# data[].attributes.body
Some might consider this sequence to be exaggerated. However I think it is a perfect reflection of the way society and opression works. It was fascinating to see all of the famous Italian American celebrities' pictures burn one by one as the scene evolved.

"Violence as a way of achieving racial justice is both impractical and immoral". I believe this final thought summarizes the whole message and story of the film. Therefore, aside form being a great movie, its historical importance is extremely relevant to this day.

The way the light was moving in this fight sequence was amazing to me. It really connected me to the whole situation and made this moment very memorable.
