Antichrist (2009)
outstanding and unsettling
This is not a movie to watch while eating popcorn. It is extremely perturbing and beautiful at the same time. This rare combination of intense beauty and disturbing topics and images, makes this movie one of a kind.
The change of pace, the manipulation of colors and shadows and the music are absolutely wonderful. Dafoe and Gainsbourg are great and it is hard to picture anyone else doing what they have done. I think Gainsbourgs performance is probably the best I've ever seen in any female role in the last ten years or so.
Don't expect to be entertained Hollywood style, this is deep and seriously intrusive.
El aura (2005)
the best Darin performance ever
I saw the movie expecting nothing from it, and I was completely astounded. The main issue of the movie, Darin character's inner desires of achieving a major theft, drives the main character to unexpected consequences, from his vane curiosity only. Darin's role is an epileptic taxidermist longing for something else from his boring life; I think that the oppression of the character is perfectly reflected by Darin who gives what I think is his best acting role ever. I was surprised also by Pablo Cedrón, a man which is very funny (remember chachacha and his Paraguayan sexologist) but here plays a violent skeptical man with hidden plans.
