@@veganpeace7890 yeah, I’d love for him and Joseph to get picked up by Netflix to do a Siskel & Ebert style show because i think they deserve the money and attention
Damn *HOW* is it possible that this channel doesnt have a million subs yet??? People are missing out. I love the great vibes and impeccable manners from Nick and Joseph, and the very informative cinematic bougie-ness of the reviews. The occasional zooms for dramatic effect are appreciated. 5/5 stars, highly recommend. I subscribed on all of my accounts.
Two of my favorite actresses with a brilliant director at the helm. I'm still waiting on the day when Cate Blanchett is thrown into the mix with the both of them. Thanks for the review as always.
Truly Almodóvar, that's what this movie is. It was released here ,in Spain , a couple of months ago, I went to the theater, and I was not really impressed, it was ok, but nothing extraordinary. Your review was spot on, guys, thank you for another detailed review. BTW, the actress playing young T. Swindon, is Esther Rose McGregor, Ewan McGregor's daughter.
In a theme heavy on death and trying to go with dignity, this woman roped in a longtime friend to witness her passing, so perhaps sharing that final memory is what matters most above all else...nothing else matters - "Life is ours, we live it our way"☺Metallica😅
I think the biggest issue with the script is not so much that doesn’t seem real, but moreso that it sounds like a translation. There’s a seamlessness that Almodovar has in Spanish that doesn’t come through in English (and I’ve had similar issues with his English language short films). The elements are all there, I just wish it was a Spanish language film because I think it would have been more impactful. And when Tilda showed up as her own daughter…I did cackle in the theater.
I enjoyed your discussion. I think it revealed that there is plenty going on in this film. The following is not a criticism of your video. I think people are seeming to hold it against this movie that it invents a lot of specific details about the identities of its characters (John Tuturro still might want to have sex with Julianne Moore (!) or his liberal values and climate opinions can cause flair ups in his personal life, or, the particularity of the cop’s demeanor, etc.) Besides this, there is the looking askance at the way the story unfolds, almost on a beat by beat level (the women talked about this rather than that). Like, “It’s all ‘off’. No, it’s just a movie that is particular about its details. It might convey them in a way you don’t like through exposition, but that shouldn’t be such a dealbreaker.
@@williamerazo3921 It is indeed very truthful and effective and exceptionally well crafted. Do you know Gregg Araki's MYSTERIOUS SKIN? I discovered both the same week and they are forever intertwined and inter-related in my mind. Each of those films were strongly cathartic for me and not so much concerning their specifics as what they unearthed concerning masculine experience generally. They are powerful and difficult films addressing deeply buried taboo psychic areas.
I’m a fairly well versed on Almodovar films. Looking forward to this his first English language film. Almodovarcan be an acquired taste so not everyone quite gets it.
Nick's brain is a wealth of information. I've been watching you guys for at least two years and my mind is constantly blown!

They'd both do great on TCM, especially when they do their film noir nights.

NICK: “…lot of fun to be had with that.”
JOSEPH: pregnant pause…
“…could’ve been” 😂😂😂

So happy to have found your channel. I truly enjoy hearing your discussions on film.
I love Joseph.... "I didn't like this, that, this and that.....but it was still very good 3.5." :)

Wait a minute! They de-age Tilda to play her own daughter? But get another actress to play her younger self??? The fock, Hollywood?
@AmarisFrede Not Hollywood, it is Almodóvar.
@Fish Jelly Film Reviews wow the introductions are getting more dramatic. I love it!!! 😂😂😂😂 Bravi Amicis!!!
Nope. Not for me. Love you guys❤
I'm actually interested in this film. Thanks for another insightful review ❤

This sounds absolutely heartbreaking. Will have to catch this one at home.
yes! With lots of tissues and a comforting blanket!
Nick and Joseph, I look forward and enjoy all the reviews. Also do you both have plans on reviewing The Fire Inside?

And when Tilda showed up as her own daughter…I did cackle in the theater.

BAD EDUCATION utterly destroyed me . . . TWICE.
I thought I could watch it a second time with some increment of "safety". WRONG.
Love that movie
