Günese Yolculuk (1999)
Welcome to Turkey
We as the Turkish audience, were able to see the movie in our theaters by March 2000. The film is about what most of us ignore to see, or ignore to show in Turkey. It has a documentary aspect, the amateur actors and the real location shots increases the honesty and realism in the film.
Without sloganized dialogues or manipulatng plot it is a story of a journey through Turkey's wounds...
Summer of Sam (1999)
Spike Lee shows the dark side of the society around a serial killer plot
1977 New York. One of the hottest summers in New York. And a serial killer, who calls himself Summer of Sam. However the film is not on how the cops would catch him, or who he is, or why is he a serial killer. It's a film on prejudices. It's on society's tendency to start a witch hunt. Spike Lee is master of his camera and cinematic language. The video-clip like plans and the use of music, in fact i should say that the lyrics and the dialogues complete each other. You feel the atmosphere of end of the 70's. So when the setting is NY end of seventies you can't skip the disco/sex culture. And it is in S.O.S too. You should see it...
