The Electrical Life of Louis Wain (2021)
The lighting!
Nice film, well written, good actors, great acting by Benedict Cumberbatch.
It was also sad, and moving.
The scene between Claire Foy and Benedict Cumberbatch where she tells him that the world is beautiful, was really well played.
However, the lighting was the absolute highlight for me. Pun intended.
I love how bright the colours where, and the use of lens flares really added something. The most beautiful thing was how in some scenes the light shimmered as though the scene was watched through a prism.
The costumes and sets were also beautiful, adding to the lovely aesthetic.
And sometimes the number of characters was a bit confusing.
Wednesday (2022)
Well made
I grew up watching the original series and the movies in the 90s so I have a very clear image of who the Adams Family are or should be and this series really captured those characters well. The episodes were nicely filmed, contained lots of drama, suspense, and some more and less expected plot twists. The costumes, aesthetic, and atmosphere were well captured. Jenna Ortega becomes her own Wednesday, at times relatable, and at times just totally what you'd expect from Wednesday. Thing was - hands down - the most fun character. I hope there will be more seasons that will bring more of the characters we love (like cousin Itt), and some more of that tim-burton-esque aesthetic, which is probably why most of us were so curious (or at least I was...).
Lorenzo (2004)
Trippy
I'd like to know what the creators smoked before going through the storyboards for this one. It's definitely trippy. Also quite artsy. Not for children but entertaining for adults. A bit messed up but like all the Disney shorts, always astonishing how much story they managed to tell in five minutes.
History of Swear Words (2021)
Good
Good entertainment when you're stuck at home with Corona. I don't have much more to say, not incredibly valuable or teaching you anything you don't know, but good entertainment.
