Dune (2021)
Visually stunning... but why so slow?
I have not read the book or had any prior knowledge about the story so I was thoroughly confused most of the time as to why things are happening the way they are becasue we get no background or reasons for actions taken. But I can let that slide and expect it to be explained in the next 10 parts they probably have in the making.
But what annoyed me the most is how dragged it feels - I feel like I spent 5h in the cinema. The dream sequences feel repetitive and with that weird slo-mo on top I felt like each of them lasted for at least 5 minutes with nothing to focus on but Zendaya in the desert. Maybe I'm too used to modern bit-size content and a bit ADHD, but I genuiely feel like half of the runtime there was nothing happening, both plotwise and visually.
Selvportrett (2020)
Incredible and powerful!
I couldn't find this movie anywhere until this year and I'm so happy I looked for it every once in a while. It's beautiful, the lingering shots on faces where you can see so many emotions, the photographs, the music (huge fan of Susanne, that's how I heard about this movie). You can sympathise with every person, feel the helplessness of her parents after so many years. Truly an emotional rollercoaster that is a must see if you can! I could hear, and I was, sobbing in the cinema from the beggining to the end.
