From the same director
G.I. Jane
Great performance by Demi Moore, here playing a lieutenant who wants to prove she can pass the same tests as the other men in the Army. A great action movie, with an important message behind the explosions and shots.
Thelma & Louise
Road trips are a staple of American culture. However, this movie takes it a step further, turning the journey into a powerful statement on sexism. It's sad to think that the 1991 story remains so relevant today.
All the Money In the World
With poetic license, director Ridley Scott ('Lost in Mars' and 'Gladiator') reconstructs one of the most peculiar cases of the 1970s: the kidnapping of J. Paul Getty's grandson, the richest man in the world at that time - and who decides to bargain with the extortion made by the kidnappers. The script, by David Scarpa (and based on John Pearson's book), manages to capture our attention, but the highlight is Christopher Plummer's great performance in the role of the miserly millionaire, which earned him an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor. The curious thing is that Plummer was called in a hurry, already in post-production, to shoot his character's scenes in just ten days. Originally the role was Kevin Spacey's, who was replaced after being accused of sexual abuse.
Blade Runner: The Final Cut
One of the most influential films of all time, this sci-fi packed with philosophical motives was released in Brazil as 'Blade Runner, The Android Hunter' in a first cut version by the studio. Years later, it got two new editions, finally aligned to the director Ridley Scott's wishes. 'The Final Cut' is the most complete one, leaving more visible the narrative depth and audio-visual splendor of a slow movie filled with details, that asks for the viewer's close attention in every moment. Nominated for two Oscars, one Golden Globe and winner of three BAFTA awards.
Robin Hood
The legend of Robin Hood, the man who stole from the rich to give to the poor, has had more than a dozen movie adaptations. The most famous one might be Disney's animation, in which a fox plays the role of the vigilante. There is also an acclaimed version with Kevin Costner and Morgan Freeman. In 'Robin Hood', a 2010 production directed by Ridley Scott (of 'Alien: The Eighth Passenger'), the traditional story takes on dark and realistic tones, following the then-successful 'Batman' franchise under Christopher Nolan's command. With a great cast, featuring names like Russell Crowe, Cate Blanchett, Oscar Isaac and Max Von Sydow, the feature film delves into the realism of this story and, on top of that, facilitates a current interpretation by viewers. It's not the best movie about the vigilante's journey, nor Scott's most original production. But it's interesting to see the intricacies of this other possibility of Robin Hood.
The Last Duel
At first, 'The Last Duel' sells the idea of being another Ridley Scott (responsible for 'Gladiator') epic of gladiators, but it is not just that. Inspired by the homonymous book by medieval literature specialist Eric Jager, the movie tells the story based on facts of Marguerite de Carrouges - brilliantly played by Jodie Comer -, a woman who was morally and socially judged by France for having denounced a rape. As women were treated as a product in the 14th century, her fate is at the mercy of a duel demanded by her husband, Jean de Carrouges (Matt Damon), against the man who committed the crime against Marguerite, Jacques Le Gris (Adam Driver). The big question is that if Carrouges loses the dispute, his wife will be punished in the worst possible way: being burned alive. Despite the slow development, which counts three versions of the same story, Ridley Scott brings an excellent movie, which only fails to give little space to female characters - which is contradictory being a production that makes a complaint about the machismo present in society. Jodie Comer is a force of nature in 'The Last Duel': even if she deserved even more scenes, she manages to impress in every moment. It is worth warning that it is an extremely difficult movie to watch if you are a woman: there are rape scenes, which can clearly be a trigger and, perhaps, there should be a warning for this type of content.
House of Gucci
Ridley Scott, of films such as 'Gladiator', yields to camp and absurdity in this ironic story, based on facts, about the Gucci family. Many know the brand as one of the world's largest fashion houses, but few know the family's plots. The feature follows the relationship between Patrizia (Lady Gaga) and Maurizio Gucci (Adam Driver), which, from a fairy tale, became a great terror. Gaga delivers here an Oscar-worthy performance, even overshadowing Driver's presence in the scene, becoming increasingly a strong name in the film industry. The singer and actress presents a caricature of the former wife of the owner of the Gucci empire, so extravagant that it is hard to imagine that she actually existed. Another character that seems to have been created for a movie is Jared Leto (who is unrecognizable) as Maurizio's cousin, Paolo Gucci. Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons and Salma Hayek complete the great cast. 'House of Gucci' is a beautiful tragicomic novela, quite tacky, diverging well from Scott's filmography and showing that he can renew himself at 83 years old.
Alien
A movie that redefined the horror and sci-fi genres, and can be considered Ridley Scott's masterpiece. The director commanded all cameras used during the shoot - many movies are filmed by assistant directors. The protagonist Sigourney Weaver was the first woman to portray an action heroine in a franchise! 'Alien: The Eighth Passenger' is, without a doubt, a milestone in the history of cinema.
