The Day The Earth Stood Still film

Orphan movie

Thir13een Ghosts (2001)

Movie Eastern Promises
The best word to discribe the drama movie “Eastern Promises” is shocking. It starts with a huge shock and there is quite some few shocks during the movie too. All in all, it is a truly exceptional movie.

The Postman Always Rings Twice movie
This film hasn’t got anything to do with postmen at all. It’s a story about jealousy and murder with Jack Nicholson in the leading role. The film didn’t manage to engage me in its story for some reason, even though I think both Nicholson and Jessica Lange are very …
Noises Off movie
Noises Off

The Darling Buds of May

Pretty Persuasion (R, 2005)

Fame (2009 movie)
