White Ribbon, The (Das weisse Band) (2009): 3/5 – "Original title: Das weiße Band – Eine deutsche Kindergeschichte" . Ganz fesselnd. Seems unfinished.
Point Blank (2010): 3/5 – Original title: "À bout portant" . Entertaining till the end.
Protectors, The (TV Series) (2008): 3/5 for Series 1 – Original title: Livvagterne . Good treatment of the immigrant theme.
Lives of Others, The (2006): 4/5 – Very good movie. 80 years later, we have changed our masters for a handful of IT oligarchs doing the same for a profit.
Mostly Martha (Bella Martha) (2002): 4/5 – Original title: "Bella Martha". Beautiful human interactions, with some light moments without falling in comedy.
Decision To Leave (2022): 4/5 – Original Aspect ratio 2.39 : 1 ; Original Title:"Heojil kyolshim"; Confusing at time, but certainly worth a second viewing.; DVD $29.95 | Blu-Ray $34.95
Back to Burgundy (Ce qui nous lie) (2017): 4/5 – Good insight about wine making culture; relevant to NZ intent to create great wines.
Tokyo Story (1953): 4/5 – Nicely told everyday Japanese people story, pre–influence of american culture era. Noticeable static camera work at tatami level.
Merchant of Venice, The (2004): 4/5 – Pacino 10/10. Sumptuous treatment.
Harmonium in my Memory, The (1999): 1/5 – :(
