This is a blog to keep me sane. Every film I see. Every day of the year. Some may be accompanied by a sentence, and hell, one or two may have an essay joining them. However, all will be here. Hope you don't mind going along for the ride. It should be one hell of a fun one.
#71 - Extremely Loud And Incredibly Close (Daldry, 2011)
Von Sydow is brilliant. The moments of emotional angst and, in a few cases, violence, are the film’s strongest sequences. Bullock steals the show, but is horribly underused, instead finding Daldry opting for an overbearing narration and a silly plot full of odd stylistic choices, leading up to the sourest of ending notes. Fucking hell. This movie definitely lives up to the hype.
