Life is sometimes hard and ugly, so you have to know how to rebound. Cinema is a way, with some beautiful movies that make you rekiffer life.
Even though beauty is subjective, we can still agree on certain things. Of which the beauty of the 7th art. If we had to give examples, then we would cite these films, where the aesthetic is so close to perfection that you think you dream. And you say yes, thank you to life.
2001 the odyssey of space
For more than 2h30, Kubrick walks in a universe of a power … Besides the meaning and the reflection behind all this, the film subjugates you. The blackness of some shots, dives and dives, symbols (cf the black monolith and religion, etc.) … Not to mention the special effects, crazy for the time. A very slow film, it’s true. But a slap in terms of beauty.

Drive
Those who went to the cinema to see pursuit races were disappointed! The guys came out completely annoyed from the room, it was pretty funny. Frustrated, they had not managed to enjoy the beauty of the trick: the light / dark, the close-ups, the sun in the camera, the blood squirts … Everything is beautiful . Every shot is a photo, brothel. And Nicolas Winding Refn is a recidivist (Valhalla Rising before, Only God Forgives after).

The Tree of Life
Warning, it’s going to be raging. Many accuse Terrence Malick of intellectual handjob, to enjoy himself alone and slide a small carrot to the spectators. On the meaning of his films, at the expense of aesthetics. So for once, it is quoted at the right time, as an example of success. Yes, filming huge buildings with nature just to side, see in the middle in fact, it’s limit coherence level. But you have to forget that and check out the images …

Enter the Void
He also qualified as a striped director, Gaspard Noé is actually different. He tries stuff, tries to surprise, even shock. So it’s sure that in your sofa, you can not kiffer, it’s the game my poor Lucette! But clearly, the aesthetic of this film kills … Basically, all you see and hear are the perceptions of the main character, Oscar. An experience. And colors, you’ve never seen that. In hallu mode, illegal by-products or naturally perched, but not normal in any case.

Melancholia
Separated in two distinct parts, one centered on the feeling of melancholy, the other on the planet that will crash and bears the same name, Lars Von Trier’s film multiplies references to romanticism . The poster refers to Sir John Everett Millais’s Ophelia painting, then scenes depicting Wagner’s paintings, Caravaggio, Cranach … Before drawing a scene on Durer’s Melancholia engraving. You will have guessed, the plans are worked and sought after, a treat.

Sin City
What memory ! The film directed by Frank Miller and Robert Rodriguez put us on the ass. Inspired by the comics of the first city, the adaptation was made in 3D and faithfully reproduces the images of the comic . So with enormous contrasts between the classic black and white of the general mood, and the garish colors at times like blood when it goes off into baston. You can watch it ten times, it’s always beautiful. Besides, you do not get bored! Which one you loved the most?

The Walking Dead Season 7: The Future of Daryl, The Negan Fight vs. Rick … Norman Reedus tells us everything! (EXCLUDED)

sivertime — Mon, 19 Dec 2016 16:34:55 +0000

After the release of the final midseason of The Walking Dead a few days ago, many questions trotted in the minds of fans … went to meet Norman Reedus, aka Daryl Dixon, who confided in this Beginning of season 7 and the future of our heroes!
Daryl is in Paris! A rare but the editorial ‘of melty has not failed, Norman Reedus went over to Paris during a few short days this week. The actor we know for his role as Daryl Dixon in The Walking Dead has more than one trick in his bag as he is also a photographer! This is the opening of his exhibition “The sun’s coming up … Like a big bald head” in Paris, where he caused a riot, Norman Reedus was passing and for the occasion, he agreed to Answer some questions about The Walking Dead and especially Season 7! While the final midseason of this season was broadcast last week, it marks a turning point for the heroes of the series. After facing the tornado that is Negan, it’s time for Rick, Daryl, Carl and others to fight! And if we believe Norman Reedus, that’s what they plan to do at all costs …

Let’s talk about Season 7 of The Walking Dead which is an important turning point for your character, how did you prepare to play such a submissive man?
Norman Reedus: It was hard for me. Season 7 is a tough season for all of us, the group is not together, look at Daryl, he was cut off from everything. Someone took his clothes, another his crossbow, another his motorcycle, it is naked a good part of the time. Season 7 is a tough season for me and hard to film. I hated it, I really hated it. But I had to hate her. I talked to our showrunner and I said, “I hate this season” and he replied: “You’re supposed to hate” . I said, ” But I’m miserable” and he said “You’re supposed to be” . He also told me “You take a hero in a series, the more you put in the lowest and highest you can bring them back to the top again,” and that’s what we do.
And so, what can we expect from your character for the resumption of the series in February?
Norman Reedus: It will send any file, there will be fighting. He is angry.
We hope to see him fight again!
Norman Reedus: Oh yes he will fight, we will soon go back to that.
Melty: Why do you think our heroes finally decided to revolt at the end of the final midseason?
Norman Reedus: I think it is time. Daryl was in this prison thinking he deserved it, he did not fight. He thought it was his fault, because of Glenn’s death, he thinks it’s his fault. He went there without any resistance. And some things happened, he saw Carl and began to say “Fuck it, you have to fight” . And I think he does not believe that others have the same desire to fight. Take a gun and resume his attitude “Hey man, you have to fight” was a major part of its storyline. For them all because Rick either did not want to fight. No one wanted to fight, they thought they could not win. This episode of season 7 where they all come together is important, if we die then die but do not live like that, we have to fight.
You think Rick and Daryl are going to beat Negan?
Norman Reedus: Oh yes!
The Walking Dead season 7, rick grimes, daryl dixon, norman reedus, andrew lincoln, salary, contracts, season 8, survival, death, danger, negan, twd, amc, series, episode 6, swear, sneak peek
For Norman, Rick and Daryl will beat Negan!
What is your best memory of the first part of this season 7?
Norman Reedus: There is no good memories for this season. But there are some things that happened in the backstages, which were fine. You see some meetings of certain characters that we wanted to see together. But in the first part of the season … I really did not like anything. I hated this first part of the season. But you know, entering a completely bare stage, with some guys, you take off your clothes in front of everyone and you see them in fashion “Ahum” and look away. It was fun. Because I was really completely naked. I think they thought I was going to wear a men’s bikini or something like that, but no, nothing at all! To watch their faces completely shocked, it was so fun. Other than this little story, I really did not like this first part of the season.
Since the beginning of the series, many characters have been killed, such as Beth, Laurie, Glenn, Hershel, Abraham … From a professional and personal point of view, what was the most difficult death for you in all Series? Who did you feel closest to?
Norman Reedus: The hardest death for me in the series was that of Hershel. Because I loved Scott, I liked spending time with him. The death of Emily (Beth) was also very difficult for me. When we shot it, I cried, I cried, I cried so much. And people walked around me, I could see their feet walking. I was crying, I was crying, I did not want to start crying during the scene where I was holding it, I wanted to show that I was on the verge of tears but with the time it happened. So I cried and cried again. I saw the feet of the people with whom I worked, no one bored me, nobody made fun of me, nobody made me feel strange. They let me cry, because everybody on the team believes in the series and they were kind “Let us do what it should do” . But it was hard for me, I loved him very much. I had to be ready to do it. The death of Merle too, killing my brother was hard. All the dead in this series are difficult, you become a family when you work all the time together. How did you find this first part of the season?
