Reality (2012)
Trailer
Why watch this film?
An interesting union of satire and drama, 'Reality' won the Grand Prix at the Cannes Festival in 2012. Using the Big Brother TV program as a backdrop, the movie makes humor out of the search for fame with a style reminiscent of 1960s Italian comedies. An interesting humor, which even fits into the Brazilian reality.

Dogman
Matteo Garrone, from 'Gomorra' and 'Reality: The Great Illusion', directs a true character study about a man (passionate about dogs, hence the title) who lives a mediocre life and is taken to his limit. Thus, we have a story about bullying and morality. The result is a film that was highly praised in the festival circuit (including Cannes) and that sounds extremely current.
Pinocchio
Traveling through the so-called "Valley of Strangeness," this version of 'Pinocchio' causes discomfort. After all, director Matteo Garrone ('Dogman', 'The Tale of Tales') completely departs from the classic Disney version and fully embraces Carlo Collodi's story, with all the bizarre elements that exist in this journey of the wooden boy. Here, as we saw in 'The Tale of Tales', the highlight is for the production design, makeup and practical effects, which surprise - as well as the performance of the little Federico Ielapi ('Employee of the Month'), who stands out with his innocence and delicacy. However, given Garrone's recent work, it can be said that the film does not reach its full potential. It seems that the filmmaker does not decide between the fairy tale and the bizarre nature of the story, staying on the fence in a complicated way. It would have been more interesting if the filmmaker had distanced himself from any childishness to deliver, perhaps, an even darker, stranger, disturbing story. It would be more original and, undoubtedly, much more memorable.
