Faltam poucas horas para o anúncio dos principais galardoados da
68ª edição do Festival de Veneza.
Independentemente do que o júri presidido pelo realizador Darren Aronofski deliberar, aqui ficam dez dos filmes mais bem recebidos pela crítica durante o certame.
Títulos a ter em atenção, e não só para os prémios...
.
TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY (Alemanha/EUA), de Tomas Alfredson
«
Right here, right now, it's the film to beat at this year's festival.»
Xan Brooks,
Guardian.
.
THE IDES OF MARCH (EUA), de George Clooney
«
A political thriller exploring themes of loyalty, ambition and the gap between public ideals and private fallibility, it engages the brain within the context of a solid entertainment.»
David Gritten,
Telegraph.
.
A DANGEROUS METHOD (Alemanha/Canadá), de David Cronenberg
«
Precise, lucid and thrillingly disciplined, this story of boundary-testing in the early days of psychoanalysis is brought to vivid life by the outstanding lead performances of Keira Knightley, Viggo Mortensen and Michael Fassbender.»
Todd McCarthy,
Hollywood Reporter.
.
TAO JIE (A SIMPLE LIFE) (China/Hong Kong), de Ann Hui
«
Susan Chan and Roger Lee's script is a bittersweet, unmistakably heartfelt look at ties between people who aren't blood relations but who have in effect a mother/son bond.»
Neil Young,
Hollywood Reporter.
.
ALPS (Grécia), de Giorgos Lanthimos
«
It'd be rash to call it a better film than DOGTOOTH, but it is, in the relative scheme of these things, a bigger one, and exciting evidence of restless formal development on the part of its director.»
Guy Lodge,
In Contention.
.
SHAME (Reino Unido), de Steve McQueen
«
[...] a formidable, and formidably sober, provocation.»
Jonathan Romney,
Sight & Sound.
.
L'ULTIMO TERRESTRE (Itália), de Gian Alfonso Pacinotti
«
Loosely inspired by a collection of comics from colleague Giacomo Monti, pic cleverly uses its sci-fi elements to explore people's fear of diversity and the unknown.»
Boyd Van Hoeij,
Variety.
.
FAUST (Rússia), de Alexander Sokurov
«
[...] and since we are yet before hell, the path to get there is, remarkably, a vibrantly soulful, terrible and funny feast.»
Daniel Kasman,
MUBI.com.
.
WUTHERING HEIGHTS (Reino Unido), de Andrea Arnold
«
Full credit to director Andrea Arnold for taking such a bold and distinctive approach to Emily Brontë's account of sweeping passion on the Yorkshire moors.»
Xan Brooks,
Guardian.
.
CARNAGE (Alemanha/Espanha/França/Polónia), de Roman Polanski
«
Snappy, nasty, deftly acted and perhaps the fastest paced film ever directed by a 78-year-old, [CARNAGE] fully delivers the laughs and savagery of the stage piece while entirely convincing as having been shot in New York, even though it was filmed in Paris for well-known reasons.»
Todd McCarthy,
Hollywood Reporter.
