In French. 155 minute running time … normally I would say 155 minutes is at least an hour too long, but this movie was so good that it gets a pass … I loved this … it’s about an Arab kid surviving, and growing up, in a French prison .. the acting was amazing, Tahar Rahim just blew me away, wow, and Niels Arestrup also no slouch… this goes on my Top Movies list, absolutely a green-go. Don’t miss it.
If you dream, eat, live … it’s thanks to me!

In Spanish. Documentary. 90 minute running time, so the right length … this was a John Farr reco … I did not know about the Chilean concentration camps under Pinochet or about the systematic torture and killing of tens of thousands of people … grim stuff … the filmmaker is interested in connecting astronomy and archaeology (you know, exploring the distant past) to the lack of exploration of Chile’s horrific recent past. It reminded me of China in the sense that the persecutors, tormentors, and torturers of the Cultural Revolution still live side by side with their victims, even today, and that’s also true in Chile.
Parents turned over then “disappeared”
In Thai … 114 minute running time so at least 20 or 30 minutes too long … I don’t know whom I have to blame for this one, it wasn’t a John Farr recommendation … I don’t get Thai culture, they’re apparently into ghosts and mysticism and it’s all a bit bizarre … the movie is about a guy who is dying of kidney failure and his club-footed sister-in-law is around during his last days and his wife’s ghost appears and his lost son reappears (in the form of a monkey) … there’s a scene where a princess is screwed by a catfish — you see what I’m saying about the weirdness? It’s just no good, terrible really. Give it a miss.

I think the Spotify algo suggested this one to me because the opening sounds like a Little Panther song … but I love this … great voice, great song. Son Little’s “about her. again.”
