Gone With The Wind is a classic, there is no question about that. It is a well-made and well-acted movie that tells a good story. However, I must say that I find it almost unwatchable at times because I absolutely hate Scarlett O’Hara. Don’t get me wrong: Vivien Leigh …

Apocalypto is truly one of the most unique films I’ve ever seen. Really very interesting. The dialogues are delivered in Yucatec (ancient language during the Mayan civilization) and the actors are all unknown which makes the movie as real as real can be. Arguably Mel Gibson’s best film, Apocalypto …
