Why watch this film?
A classic that shows that love is the only thing capable of overcoming time, with Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour. 'Somewhere In Time' is a romance that will enchant even the most insensitive. The story is moving, mainly because it is watered innocence - a differential of the 1980s films, which did not need to explore eroticism and sex scenes to bring a complete plot. Another interesting point is that we follow the plot from the male point of view and, normally, in romances we always have the female vision. It is good to mention that the production deals with time travel, a theme also explored in the great romantic comedy 'About Time'. The film also stands out for its soundtrack, photography, scenography, costumes (which earned an Oscar nomination) and editing, which help in the enveloping atmosphere of the plot.

From the same director
Supergirl
The story is about Kara (Helen Slater), who lives in Argo City, a city that managed to survive the end of Krypton. However, the small piece of land begins to deteriorate - and she is sent to Earth, the same planet where years before her cousin, Kal-El (better known as Superman), was sent. Here, she gains superpowers and begins to protect our planet as Supergirl. Unfortunately, Christopher Reeve refused to reprise the role of Man of Steel in this movie, which would have been interesting. The final result is far from a masterpiece of cinema, but certainly brings an affectionate memory for some.
Romance
Licença para Enlouquecer
When the lives of friends Sara, Lia and Leia turn into chaos of planetary proportions, they have to share a tiny apartment in São Paulo and almost go crazy. Who never? But the three are enough. They become accomplices to fulfill an indecent and irrefutable proposal: crossing the country to “animate” a secret party on the paradisiacal beach of Maragogi, in Alagoas. An absurdly unexpected adventure, with twists, passions, the strength of friendship and a surprise that will transform their destinies.
How to Date Billy Walsh
There's a reason why, despite being so repetitive, teen romantic comedies like Clueless work so well: we've all been there, somehow. The plot of How to Date Billy Walsh is set in Britain, but follows the same formula as many other similar proposals from the United States: a guy, Archie, has been friends with Amelia since childhood, but secretly loves her. However, when he finally gathers the courage to confess, she falls for Billie Walsh, a handsome and athletic exchange student. The story is predictable and, except for a Netflix Sex Education-like layer of paint, there's not much new. However, it's a good contender for a Gen Z classic.
The Taste of Things
From Vietnamese-French director Anh Hung Tran (The Scent of Green Papaya) and starring the legendary Juliette Binoche and Benoît Magimel, The Taste of Things was France's selection for the 2024 Oscars, although it was not nominated. Set in 1889 and based on the character of Dodin-Bouffant created by Marcel Rouff, the story follows a chef (Magimel) enchanted by his cook (Binoche), for whom he feels not only culinary admiration, but genuine love. However, she is not ready to take the step into marriage and is happy and content with the relationship they have. Sensual in its visuality and narrative, it is a powerful story of love and about love, which, while not entirely breaking free from conventions, is elevated by the formidable talent of its protagonists.
Me Before You
Young and quirky Louisa "Lou" Clark moves from one job to the next to help her family make ends meet. Her cheerful attitude is put to the test when she becomes a caregiver for Will Traynor, a wealthy young banker left paralyzed from an accident two years earlier. Will's cynical outlook starts to change when Louisa shows him that life is worth living. As their bond deepens, their lives and hearts change in ways neither one could have imagined.
