Clearly, the time travel issue is one of the most
attractive that can be explored by fiction, to bring characters from
different periods together, to witness to the life of someone or simply to address the
perennial debate over whether changing something in the past creates a different
timeline (something reflected brilliantly in an episode of the Simpsons by the way).
However, in "Looper", time travel is a catalyst
for the real story and not the backbone of it.
Did you ever think "enough with work, with studying, enough with whatever: let's watch a movie"? We think that a lot. So much that we don't just want to watch movies: we want to think, write, read, hear, talk, even argue about them. A blog from dreamers to dreamers.

Silver Linings Playbook
"Silver Linings Playbook" was already an attractive
movie thanks to its director and cast, especially the two main
characters, two young stars with legions of fans; but interest further increased after its
success at the Toronto Film Festival.

The Secret World of Arrietty
There is an ocean of difference between
the animated films we usually see in our theaters and those produced by Studio
Ghibli. Without detracting from the great work of Pixar or Dreamworks, the Japanese studio films possess a unique magic, not only because they still hand-draw their work, which is one of its greatest virtues, but also because of the way it addresses family stories
from a fantastic, honest and spiritual perspective.

Argo
Most successful
spy films usually develop around impossible missions, conducted with the most spectacular
resources ever seen and with glamorous fighters capable of
defeating a small army with their own hands as main characters. The actual espionage, I believe,
cannot be like that.
