Hollywood produces films starring, of course, a bunch of talented (or not) American actors. But some people coming from other countries also had a career, a long or short one, in Hollywood. We can think of the German Marlene Dietrich, the Swedish Ingrid Bergman or the English James Mason. Today, I& read more

Remakes are, in general. something peopled tend to avoid, because the concept itself doesn’t really have a good reputation. However, there are some exceptions. Sometimes, the remake can be as good as the original film, sometimes it can even be better! Well, that’s all a matter of tastes read more

Murder on the Orient Express is probably well-known as one of the best on-screen adaptation of an Agatha Christie’s novel.

Ingrid Bergman. What is the first word that comes to your mind when you think of this name. For some it’s “beauty”, for some it’s “talent”, for some it’s “Casablanca”. For me, it’s all this, and more… As I wrote in my letter to Isabe read more

Movie heroines are not always princesses waiting for a prince to rescue them, they are not always victims or damsels in distress. Female movie characters can be strong, they can have guts, determination and many other wonderful qualities. GIRL POWER! Is it clear? Well, because of movie business, a read more
