I have a love for movies and television series. In the past I wrote about this more actively in the form of reviews, and I occasionally still do.
Another Earth is a drama film with a science fiction backdrop. The story revolves around a girl named Rhoda, portrayed by Brit Marling, who has recently been accepted to study at MIT. Unfortunately, while driving home from a party she slams her car into that of a famous composer, killing his family and throwing him in a coma.
Clint Eastwood has sharpened his directing skills in the past decade, showing that he can make high quality drama films such as Mystic River and Million Dollar Baby. In his newest feature he takes on the life of J. Edgar Hoover, the former long-time director and founder of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The script was penned by Dustin Lance Black, best known for the award-winning movie Milk.
Margin Call is a film about risk taking in the financial market and the consequences for people working in that sector. Not a very popular topic for filmmakers and moviegoers alike. Nevertheless, it features an all-star cast, but do they deliver?
