Disturbing banality
18 December 2019
I saw this product (i can't dignify it to name this a movie) with a big delay,almost decade after, and it is frustrating to find that it look exactly like all other Bulgarian BS that happened lately. as a norm period movies should look even better after ten more years, it means, if they shoot 1989-1991 period in 2010, there will be some imperfection depicting the previous epoch, so, when you get the seen after ten more years, the 90's should look little bit more real, supposing we add this 10 years on the account of historicity. So...I don't find relevant to talk about this thing here, just wanted to intervene on something else. much more abstract. This almost structural deadlock this feature that almost in every Bulgarian cinematic attempt that intent to be taken as a movie we got this constant female characters to be involved in dancing. It as a symptom for the immature stage of the idea in our art. Because we are not able to deal with cinematic movement in the plot we put some body in this simplifying motion, lacking every tension in the narrative to be aufgehoben on the level of the bodily expression, that instead to be involved in some dynamics accomplished through usual cinematic features-genre (action, film noir, suspense), movement of the camera, etc , the lack of such consciousness appears on this strange depiction of the female characters, to be made dancers.I will not mention here every Bulgarian "films'from last few years where we got female dancing, but this feature is almost omnipresent.

A pure Failure
22 July 2014
The worst movie after "Wilde" 1996 with Stephen Fry and Jude Law. The true about Great Yves St Laurent is in his works it is not in his sexuality. This movie is the second after Wilde that synthesizes two genres - biography with gay soft porno. As a cinema it is zero. We can watch it on the level of the texture - a big misunderstanding, lack of consistency that materialize the psychotic moment in life of Yves.But why this should be interesting, why this orgiastic presentation of the life of genius. I prefer Yves Saint Laurent Aufgehoben in movies, f.ex Visconti 's collaboration with Laurent- Berger, Joseph Losey's ("Romantic English Woman), Claude Lelouch, etc.The authors only superficially placed the topic of neurotic obsession, hysteria and they ferociously fail to do something with this, so why they mention it at all..use it or lose it. Again, not much to be said about such biographic soft porn melodrama. I am sure Berge and Slimane are dismissing the movie
