3 good films this weekend....
Zero Motivation link an Israeli film about the 10 years ago 'corps' of female administrative army workers, who, while in the IDF mainly served coffee and shredded documents. How they coped and lived is a very amusing and interesting story.
What We Do In The Shadows link
A film from New Zealand...A story of a group of vampires who live in the same house, and must share in home upkeep....What with all the blood, bones, fur, etc...it is not an easy task, and some 'older ones' (700 years plus) just don't give a shit about neatness....I laughed almost every single minute of this droll film.
And they had to deal constantly with the threat from Werewolves!!!! Since they could not use mirrors, they had to rely on others to dress up properly for parties, etc.
Tangerines link an Estonian film about one of the many ethnic conflicts arising from the demise of the Soviet Union....A study of culture, death, ethnic hatred and human compassion....It builds to the amazing last half, which is totally absorbing....
I don't know about the movie Tangerines - but the other 2 were really good!
ReplyDeleteThe actual title of the Israeli film (in Hebrew) translates to "Zero in Interpersonal Skills".
I guess the distributors didn''t feel that would roll off the tongue like "Zero Motivation".
It doesn't mean the same thing however...
