Dune (2021)
Absolutely Immersive
I have read the books, the entire Saga, Seen the Lynch Film and the SYFY Series. And this version is a completely different experience.
It is a true journey, filmed in a realistic style, to the complex world of DUNE, absolutely immersive experience.
The script work is magnificent, coherent, entertaining. It respects the lines drawn in Herbert's book very well. It is striking that it is a movie for an older audience with a very strong anti-war tone, which is a real rarity these days.
The stage work is superb. And the special effects are understated.
More a low than con its the soundtrack, for me the only thing missing to be up to the task was the soundtrack that compared to TOTO / Eno is far behind. It has no melody and makes it difficult to hum a song. Rather one remembers the screams that present the BENE GESSERIT and the scream that is the theme of the Fremen.
It is recommended to see it in cinema, especially IMAX. Since photography is wonderful and is designed for this format.
The story is exciting and the casting works very well. It really has been a remarkable and meaningful experience.
I think it is a movie that must be seen in 2021.
Greetings and have a good trip to Arrakis.
Kongo (2019)
A beautiful Journey to the ever-changing and lively environment of the Congo
Kongo is a beautiful narrative that allows us to understand that very different and unique place that is the daily life of the Congo.
The photography is very nice and has a sober classic edition. Its soundtrack is more than adequate. But beyond the technical merits that are remarkable in this work, I think that in the end its history stands out.
The record goes beyond the limits of the documentary format in order to create an understandable story for the western public, but which, contrary to western reason-logic, is the daily real life of the Congo.
A magical tour and always recommended to see.
