Investigation of a Citizen Above Suspicion

1970

★★★½ Watched

“Only if you confess all your weakness and shame will you obtain my forgiveness and protection”

INVESTIGATION OF A CITIZEN ABOVE SUSPICION A is deliciously absurd satire where the real crime is how far unchecked authority can go when everyone else is too polite, terrified or too far occupied from promoting an agenda to call it out. The police and bureaucratic system cannot—or will not—believe that someone of his rank and stature could commit such a crime. Mildly amused, but…

The Way He Looks

2014

★★★½ Watched

This film wrapped around me like a warm hug. THE WAY HE LOOKS may be small and quietly told coming-of-age film from Brazil but its heart is enormous. It’s a story we’ve seen before—but rarely with this much tenderness, honesty, and care. The direction is gentle, the characters especially our blind protaganist, Leo feels real and deeply felt. THE WAY HE LOOKS is about first love, finding your own voice, and the (sometimes) turbulance of long-term friendships. Also, Karina.
