The Apartment

1960

★★★★★ Rewatched

For anyone who ever told me that 60s cinema was not very expressive, but very melodramatic, this film is a slap in the face. Billy Wilder through Jack Lemmon delivers here one of the best comedies/dramas in cinema in my opinion.

Bud Baxter (Wilder) is an insurance company employee looking to gain an advantage within the company. With that, he starts lending his apartment to his superiors so they can take their lovers.

His life starts to get complicated, to…

Rear Window

1954

★★★★★ Liked 10

The best film for gossipers on duty. The immersion that Alfred Hitchcock conveys in this work through the lens is so great that we feel as if we were living in this apartment.

L.B Jefferies is a photographer who, after one of his jobs, had an accident and had to rest at home for a few weeks. Without much to do, he ends up seduced by curiosity in snooping into the lives of others in his condominium.

In the midst…

The film begins by showing their good life and how united they all are.

Amidst the extreme political climate of the time, Rubens, the father, is taken by the dictatorship’s military for having been a deputy…

Nosferatu

2024

★★★★ 1

Eggers once again manages to maintain his flawless record of quality. Just as Pixar used to be, we can still go to the movies without fear when we know he is involved.

The 1920 Nosferatu would be nearly impossible for any other filmmaker to adapt. Now, after watching this achievement, it’s almost inconceivable to think of another director capable of orchestrating it.

Eggers brings back the classic Nosferatu storyline, centered on the young real estate agent Thomas, who is tasked…

Casablanca

1942

★★★★★ 4

It's rare that I finish a movie and feel like I've watched something epic and the more I think about it, the better it becomes. Casablanca is undoubtedly a landmark in cinema and a must-see for all lovers of the seventh art.

As the Second World War unfolds, we meet Rick, an American bar owner who now lives in Casablanca, a French republic not occupied by the Germans.

Casablanca is described as a transition region for refugees seeking age to…

The Godfather

1972

★★★★★ Liked 2

Perhaps the first thing that comes to mind for many when they think about cinema, and it is no surprise that Francis Coppola presents us with the greatest reference of the Italian mafia in the seventh art.

The film begins by introducing Don Vito Corleone in one of the most famous scenes in cinema. The self-proclaimed leader of the region's mafia receives an acquaintance who begs for justice for his daughter.

Throughout the work we note that his power and…
