This Must Be the Place (2011 film by Paolo Sorrentino)
“This Must Be the Place” by director Paolo Sorrentino is not a perfect movie. However, it is damn well close to being one.

88 Minutes movie 2007
There’s nothing like a good Al Pacino movie but this wasn’t one of them. 88 minutes is a thriller that will confuse you until the very end. Mostly because the things that happen in it are so unrealistic and unbelievable that you think “there must be something more,” yet at …
