Out to own today: The Secret of Marrowbone a.k.a. Marrowbone
It is actor Adam Driver’s birthday. His top 5 films: - BLACKKKLANSMAN - INSIDE LLEWYN DAVIS - PATERSON - THE MEYEROWITZ STORIES (NEW AND SELECTED) - WHILE WE’RE YOUNG  PATERSON JONATHAN ★★½☆☆ D: Bill Oliver. S: Ansel Elgort, Patricia Clarkson, Suki Waterhouse, Douglas Hodge, Matt Bomer. Twin brothers existing in one body. High-concept sci-fi tied to drab characterisation and banal melodrama. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/jonathan.html  ARCTIC ★★★★☆ D: Joe Penna. S: Mads Mikkelsen, Maria Thelma Smáradóttir. What a survival flick! Mads Mikkelsen was a wise choice of protagonist. Drops you right in immediately. No backstory. A polar bear acts like a loaded gun. My review: http://www.filmaluation.com/arctic.html  It is director Martin Scorsese’s birthday. His top 5 films: - KUNDUN - RAGING BULL - SHUTTER ISLAND - TAXI DRIVER - THE WOLF OF WALL STREET Nearly made the list: - THE AGE OF INNOCENCE  THE WOLF OF WALL STREET Hot off THE NIGHT MANAGER, director Susanne Bier has teamed up with Sandra Bullock. Asghar Farhadi's last five films have a nuanced sophistication. Will his latest continue the trend? |

Noun, “filmaluation”: The evaluation of a film Verb, "to filmaluate”: To evaluate a film I am well aware how difficult it is to make a film, put on a stage play, create a television show, write a novel, let alone make something of note.
