10 Days of a Good Man (Iyi Adamin 10 Günü) is a movie directed by Uluç Bayraktar starring Nejat Isler.
A Turkish thriller in the purest Hollywood style with an unmistakable Humphrey Bogart touch… Turkish style.
A kind of Philip Marlowe parody (no secret) that is entertaining and refreshing. But is it good and original? Not at all, but it is gratifying to meet the character again and bring him back to these times that are so different to those days.
Movie Review 10 Days of a Good Man (2023)
It’s neither great nor will it go down in history with all its conscious parodying of an obviously televisual format with regard to the photographic and plot aspects. However, it is entertaining in a familiar way and has a very eighties touch in terms of script structure, scene conception and general planning.
A very classic touch.
Mind you, it is a Turkish film,...

Enfant Terrible
Oskar Roehler is one of Germany’s most well-traveled directors, so his desire to mount a portrayal of Rainer Werner Fassbinder in his latest feature Enfant Terrible isn’t surprising. Produced by Markus Zimmer through Bavaria Filmproduktion, Roehler taps Oliver Masucci (who played Hitler in the adaptation of Look Who’s Back) to play Fassbinder. His supporting cast consists of Katja Riemann, Hary Prinz, Anton Rattinger, Felix Hellmann, Erdal Yildiz, Jochen Schropp, Sunnyi Melles and Isolde Barth. Roehler premiered his 2004 title Agnes and His Brothers in the Horizons sidebar in Venice and competed in Sundance’s World Dramatic competition in 2009 with Lulu and Jimi.…...
