I just admire this one, it’s my favorite disaster movie. Loved the explosion and Amy Brenneman in this.

Wit

Diary-like film about cancer. Great acting from Emma Thompson, as always.

6/10

88 minutes

The plot was pretty good, we had no idea who was the killer. Good to see Leelee Sobieski, she barely stars in films anymore. And yes, Amy Brenneman is in this too.

My rating  9/10

Private Practice Season 4 Episodes 1-5

I love reviewing my favorite TV series, so that’s what I’ll start doing on here.

Private Practice 4.01

My favorite scenes include: Amelia trying to light up a cigarette, and Addison throwing her cigs out, then at cementary everyone recalling what happened to them last year and Violet’s : What the hell is going on with the world? Then Violet announced her and Pete are getting married, which was a little bit inappropriate. Later some awful couple left their child in the car in full heat, wanting another child to repair their mistake, some guy wanted a kidney from his mentally challenged brother. Then we had the wedding, or ratherViolet changing her mind at the altar, and fleeing! Thankfully, Pete calmed her down and they finally married.

6/10

Private Practice 4.02

I liked the second episode more than the first one. AddiSam is getting on my nerves big time. I love the merging practices thing! William died and Naomi made a beautiful speech. Episode also featured a mother giving marijuana to her autistic kid. I’m so sorry for Violet/Coop, their friendship’s amazing, why do they have to stop spending so much time together. Stupid marriages. Addie told Nay about her and Sam. My favorite storyline was with a woman named Jane who caught off her penis, that was heartbreaking! Good episode!

10/10

Private Practice 4.03

Sam almost killed the guy who hit Maya and Dell last season, when he showed up to apologize,  Sam’s reaction was perfect. He yelled:

“Some things don’t deserve to be forgiven!”

This episode included a flashback of Addison and Sam’ surgery residency. We now know why Sam quit surgery (because he let the pedophile die). Addison looked so innocent with that brown hair. Amelia got a job at the practice. Pete risked loosing his licence by helping his friend carry out an illegal operation. Violet was amazing this ep. I just looooved Naomi’s speech about Addie:

“You’re selfish, Addison. You always have been. The tunnel vision that makes you a great surgeon also makes you a crappy friend… You’re a cheater, and while Sam and I aren’t married anymore, you knew what you were doing was wrong, and so you lied to me…Every day you didn’t tell me about the two of you, you lied, because you knew telling the truth would be hard…And you’re a coward…You’re my best friend. But when I look at you now…I just want to slap you across the face.”

10/10

Private Practice 4.04

Violet was exceptionally amazing this episode. I was so pissed off at Pete for not letting her adopt Betsey, and at the rest of the characters for not wanting to adopt her too. They’ve been saying they are all one big family, so how the so called family can’t take care of a little girl? It’s awful to say, but now Betsy should end up in an abusive family, just to explain why on Earth none of them took her in. The scene with Violet spilling the sodas to make Betsy feel better, broke my heart. And when she begs everyone to take care of Dell’s daughter, everyone pretended not to hear her. It was hard to glue myself together after this. And the last scene when they all leave in slow motion with that amazing song in the background! One of the most tearful, best episodes we’ve had.

Violet: She brought her back to the only family that she has left.
Violet: We’re not placing betsey in the system. Everybody in her life has abandoned her.
Violet: Help. She needs help, which Dell would’ve given any one of us without a second thought… If he were still alive.

Violet: Hey, I was looking for you. Feel like getting a snack?
Betsey: This is my daddy’s office. He used to have crayons And paper.
Violet: Yeah. I remember. You two had a lot ofun in here. You know, he loved you so much. And I know that when|someone you love goes away, It feels icky. And it’s confusing because you have all these feelings that you don’t understand. But I want you to know that… All of us here care about you… So much… And that you can|tell anything to me. Okay? Anything at all.
Betsey: Where am I gonna sleep tonight?
Violet: How about you come home with me?

Violet: Pete! Pete, lucas is not in his crib!
Betsey: My daddy and I used to watch cartoons together. I thought maybe lucas would like them.
Betsey: Can I stay with you forever?

Violet: Oh, just to see her smile… She’ll need daily therapy, at least at the beginning, But I think we could see real improvements in a few months.
Pete: Wait. You want her to stay with us?
Violet: I think we should adopt her.
Pete: Violet, that’s not a|good idea for any of us.
Violet: When you think about it,We are exactly who should be doing this, ’cause I’m a therapist, and– and even more than that, I get Betsey.That sense of being damaged? I know what that can turn into. We’re building a family. And there’s no reason that Betsey can’t be a part of that. We can do this.
Pete: Can we?
Violet: Absolutely. You don’t think I can do this. You don’t think I have it in me after… I’m fine. I am fine now.
Pete: Violet, I’m not– she’s a child.
Violet: She needs someone. She needs us. And I am fine.

Violet: I need to ask if anyone here is willing to… take Betsey. Please. Because I can’t, and, um…One of us needs to step up. Please.

Betsey: Don’t you want to take care of me?
Violet: I love spending time with you.
Betsey: Where will I go?
Violet: I don’t know exactly. But… Here’s what I hope will happen. I hope that you will get to go to a home, A home with a mom and dad Who have always wanted a little girl, A mom and dad of your very own, Who will love you so much Because they’re gonna see how special you are. And that will be better for you than living with us, Because your new family… They have been waiting Just for you. Doesn’t that sound good?

Violet: We did a bad thing here. You all know it. We did a bad thing.

10/10

Private Practice 4.05

I feel so sorry for the guy who spent 30 years in prison, I get why he wanted to stay in jail. But when he threatened Violet, that left me uneasy. Dr. Rodriguez is here, I already ship him with Addie! I am so tired of AddieSam. Everybody wants Sheldon, but I understand what he meant when he said that he would eventually fall for Amelia, and she’d avoid him. Addie and Charlotte arguing, neve gets old! Pete’s acting like an ass, first he doesn’t want Betsy, now he’s mad Violet’s spending time with her patients.

Charlotte: I’m not the mommy type. I don’t like kids, and I don’t want kids. They’ll like you more than they’ll like me. I’m not…What if I end up like my mother, drunk at noon, Hating the rug rats I’m supposed to love, Screwing up our kid damaging them? See? Now you’re gonna leave me. This is why I didn’t want to talk about this.
Cooper: Charlotte, I’m not leaving you.

Sheldon: Let me tell you how this would go. Uh… We’d sleep together. And at first, it would be just for kicks, But enentually, I’d fall for you, hard. And then you would do wh women like you–the bad girls, The ones who like it dirty, And nasty, and a-a little bit kinky You know, the ones withererious daddy issues do, You’d run. You’d avoid me. You’d be intentionally mean to me. My savior complex would kick in, So I’d chase you, keep calling you, let you use me for sex On the nights when you were drunk or bored. But you’re too damaged to appreciate the fact That I’m a good guy and I could actually care. And then one day, I’d show up at your apartment with flowers or something Trying to woo you, only to find you on your couch Screwing somguguy ten years younger than me.

Repulsion. Forget Me Not. Prayers for Bobby. 4.3.2.1. Not Another Teen Movie. Antichrist

Movies I’ve seen this week:

MV5BZTU5ZThjNzAtNjc4NC00OTViLWIxYTYtODFmMTk5Y2NjZjZiL2ltYWdlL2ltYWdlXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNjc1NTYyMjg@._V1_SY1000_CR0,0,668,1000_AL_ MV5BMTU2NDAwNjc2Ml5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNDU0ODk1Mg@@._V1_SY1000_CR0,0,681,1000_AL_ MV5BMTg4NjU4Njg5Ml5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTcwNjUxNjgyMg@@._V1_SY1000_CR0,0,671,1000_AL_

Repulsion

I have 15 of Polanski’s films on DVD, yet not my favorite, Repulsion. I’m really looking forward to watching Carnage with Jodie Foster next year, and I have two friends that are obsessed with Polanski’s movies. Repulsion, happens to be my favorite Polanski film. I liked the depressing and maddening atmosphere and Catherine looked exceptionally beautiful here. Rosemary’s Baby, had the exact same climate. The ending disappointed me a bit. If you wanna see some true beauty metaphorically and physically, go watch Repulsion.

7/10

Forget Me Not

Watched it for Carly Schroeder, whose career I’ve been following since the amazing thriller Mean Creek. Yes, Forget Me Not is another teen horror, but the plot was pretty good. I loved the ending, even though it was predictable. I haven’t seen a story like that in horrors lately. Carly chooses great movies: Gracie, Mean Creek, Eye of Dolphin, Prayers for Bobby etc. Alright, Prey was messed up. Forget Me Not was great, I loved the focus on fear of being forgotten. I really enjoyed all the cemetary scenes and the flashbacks. Sure I am easily annoyed by spoiled teenagers, but it was a good thriller.

8/10
Prayers for Bobby
The mother’s (Sigourney Weaver’s) struggle is beautifully shown. It’s really hard to accept her prejudices and choices. I cringed the whole time she was asking the priest for advise. Really hard for me to watch. I don’t understand how you can not accept your own child. Bobby’s suicide by jumping off the bridge was very triggering, and the gay parade at the end was superb!

4.3.2.1

Meh. I liked Shannon’s storyline the most. Joanne’s story was pretty good too. And Cassandra’s was just dumb. Kerry’s story was pretty damn too. I loved how all of them were heroes in the end. I would recommend it only if you have nothing better to do.

5/10

Not Another Teen Movie

Just another teen parody. Not another teen movie? So what’s the difference between stupid love story and a parodied love story? You have to be really bored or really drunk to watch it. A big part of the film focuses on ‘She’s All That’.

3/10

Antichrist

I can stand a lot watching horror movie, but genital mutilation for sexual pleasure is too much even for me. I may be too conservative and asexual for this film. If not for that, it would have been great.

Phoebe in Wonderland and The Fanning Sisters

03 Sunday Oct 2010

Posted by Joanne in movies

Dakota ‘Hollywood Darling’ Fanning, started her carrer as a little child, simply by being at the right place and the right time. She’s had many opportunities to appear next to some big film stars.  The following are all Dakota movies I’ve seen: I am Sam (with Sean Penn), Sweet Home Alabama (w/Reese Witherspoon), Trapped (w/Charlize Theron), Uptown Girls (w/Britanny Murphy), Man on Fire (w/Denzel Washington), War of the Worlds (w/Tom Cruise), Hide and Seek (w/Robert De Niro), Charlotte’s Webb (w/Julia Roberts), Hounddog, Winged Creatures (w/Jeanne Tripplehorn), and Secret Life of Bees (w/Queen Latifah),  which makes up to 3/4 of her filmography.  My favorite has always ben Hide and Seek, where she played a kid with split personality. The movies she was in at the beginning of her carrier were more popular, lately she’s starring in more independent movies, which is fine, but the characters she portrays lately are average. She now stars in the infamous Twilight, which I would say is a major step back. I still haven’t seen The Runaways, but I am planning to. I don’t think she has had a chance to truly show what she’s capable of, that does not me she will not grow up to be a good actress.

Her younger sister, Elle, on the other hand, already seems to have developed the ‘it’ factor’. After watching the incredible ‘Phoebe in Wonderland’, her talent left me speechless. I haven’t seen much movies with her, but I’ll never forget the amazing this one, which  in my opinion is one of five best movies for kids. Phoebe was sweet and mysterious, living in her own Wonderland. I did intially want to watch it for the amazing Felicity Huffman, as I had just seen Transamerica, but then the rooftop scene happened. Phoebe says “Sometimes I get this feeling; this feeling to jump off  a roof…it’s what I feel like all the time with the things I do. I know I shouldn’t, but I can’t help it. It’s like being on the edge of the roof all the time.” and this quote coming from a 10 year old or so, shook me to the bone.

Some other scenes I loved include her describing her decease: “Gilles de la Tourette syndrome. It’s a beautiful name I think. I was born with it. Starting now. It’ll get worse before it gets better. My shoulders, my fingers, and imitating. Spitting. It’s a voice in your head that makes you do the opposite of what you’re supposed to. It makes you break rules. But sometimes breaking rules is good. So I like to think about it that way.”

I’ve also seen Elle in ‘Because of You, Winn Dixie’, another movie for kids I love, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Babel and some more.

I will surely continue following both sisters’ careers.

Welcome to ReviewThisFilm

This website started as weekly reviews on movies and tv episodes, and a diary of the 700 new films I watched every year. Today it’s a place for me to write a few words on films and tv shows that leave some sort of impact on me. I no longer write in depth reviews, partially thanks to bad habits gained by spending many hours a day on Letterboxd, and partially because of my demanding day job.

If you have a film you would like me to watch and review,  please leave a comment.

Enjoy!

About me

I am the dark and twisty Meredith Grey, the mad Dexter Morgan, hoping to grow up to be a little more like the wise, but fun Nora Walker. I am an aspiring filmmaker. My favorite actresses are Jodie Foster, Sally Field and Julianne Moore. Favorite genre – psychological drama. I watch anything with a sexual or mental abuse plot. I used to be a horror freak. I am obsessed with Grey’s Anatomy, SVU and many more. My other interests include making oil and pencil portraits and wildlife conservation. I cannot say no to beautiful landscapes, travel, Aussie accent, TV/film quotes and avocados. I have recently moved back from Australia to the UK. I’ve been running this blog for the last 9 years. Here I comment on films and episodes I watch. Enjoy! – Joanne

favourite film and tv quotes

‘When I lived in Porpoise Spit, I used to sit in my room for hours and listen to ABBA songs. But since I’ve met you and moved to Sydney, I haven’t listened to one Abba song. That’s because my life is as good as an Abba song. It’s as good as Dancing Queen.’ (Muriel’s Wedding)

‘I used to think about
your life in New York. I tried to imagine your room. I kept track of the time difference, so I  knew when you were awake and when you were asleep.’ (Disobedience)

‘Nothing’s clean, Howard. But we do our best, right?’ (The Aviator)

‘No, I’m not quitting. I don’t quit things.’
‘No, actually you do. Your mother quit your father. Your father quit you. You quit your boyfriend and if I read your hospital chart correctly you quit your life momentarily on a couple of occasions. You quit. It’s what you know how to do.’ (Greys)

‘Where the hell was I that year?’
‘Your were watching television’. (Everybody Loves Raymond)

‘It’s impossible to worry about anything else when there’s blood coming out of you.’
(Short Term 12)

‘I wanted it to happen. And when we were girls… Even then, it was the same. It’s always been this way! I have always wanted it.’ (Disobedience)

‘Sometimes it’s easy, sometimes you play games in your head. You make up someone, someone good.’ (Greys)

‘There comes a moment when our lives change forever. The moment we admit our weaknesses, the moment we rise to a challenge, the moment we accept a sacrifice, or let a loved one go. And sometimes the change in our lives is an answer to our prayers.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Yesterday I went to the movies all day by myself. One after the other. I’ve never done that before. I had a really happy day.’ (Doing Time for Patsy Cline)

‘I just need something to happen. I need a sign that things are going to change. I need a reason to go on. I need some hope. And in the absence of hope, I need to stay in bed a feel like I might die today.’ (Greys)

‘She saved me my whole life. Without her, I’m nothing.’ (The Favourite)

‘Don’t wonder why people go crazy. Wonder why they don’t. In face of what we can lose in a day, in an instant, wonder what the hell it is that make us hold it together.’  (Greys)

‘Bree sobbed quietly in the restroom for five miutes, but her husband never knew, because when Bree finally emerged, she was perfect.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘I am not food, you cannot just eat and eat.’ (The Favourite)

‘I don’t love him.’
‘Of course you do.’
‘No!’
‘Don’t take me for a fool Olive,  I’m many things but I’m not a fool.’
‘I know that, you’re brilliant.’
‘Don’t you see, it’s over. Whatever this is, was, it’s over.’
‘I love You.’ (Professor Marston and the Wonder Women)

‘At the end of the day, the fact that we have the courage to still be standing, is reason enough to celebrate.’ (Greys)

‘Many years ago, a neighbour and a good friend of ours took her life, and that left us all heartbroken and perplexed. But somehow, when I was alone in that hotel room, I forget about all the pain that she caused. In those awful moments, I thought maybe she had the answer.‘ (Desperate Housewives)

‘What happened last year when you fell in the water?’
‘I almost drowned. Do you think I did that for kicks?’
‘You put your hand in a body cavity that contained unexploded ammunition.’
‘I was trying to save a patient!’
‘Why is it that every other person in that room had the sense to hit the deck? You know people run away from this line between life and death. You seem to stand on it and wait for a strong wind to sway you one way or the other. You’re careless with your life. You’re not slitting your wrists but you’re careless. Probably because your mother told you you were a waste of space on this planet. The problem is you believed her. And if you don’t want out one of these days you’re going to die because of it.’  (Greys)

‘This is the street where I used to live and these were the people with whom I shared my life. I met them the day they moved in. And I saw what they brought with them. Beautiful dreams for the future. And quiet hopes for a better life. Not just for themselves, but for their children, too. If I could, would I tell them what lies ahead? Would I warn them of the sorrow and betrayal that lie in store? No. From where I stand now, I see enough of the road to understand how it must be traveled. The trick is to keep moving forward, to let go of the fear and the regret that slow us down and keep us from enjoying a journey that will be over too soon. Yes, there will be unexpected bends in the road, shocking surprises we didn’t see coming, but that’s really the point. Don’t you think?’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Was your life not working when you let that slip out from under you?’
‘When are you going to stop suggesting that I’m suicidal?’
‘When you start acting like someone that wants to be alive.’
‘Give me my chart.’
‘Why?’
‘Because I’m not suicidal, and if it says that I am, then it’s wrong.’ (Greys)

‘There is nothing wrong with me.’
‘Then show me your arm.’ (Degrassi)

‘Look, my whole life, I have been the freak. The girl who nobody picked for dodgeball. The girl who didn’t have a mom. The girl who dressed funny because it was her dad buying her clothes. And then, tonight I looked at these people, and I thought maybe there’s a future where I don’t have to be a freak. Maybe I can be who I am and that’s okay.’ (Everything Sucks)

‘Dr, I have been this way since…since I can remember. There is no cure.’ (American Horror Story)

‘He was so crazy about me, I couldn’t breathe. So we tried drinking our way back into love, but it never made sense in the morning. So I ran. And every time I came back, he was here. And he was still crazy about me.’ (My Blueberry Nights)

‘Bree van de Kamp had always wanted to live her life with elegance and grace. That is also how she wanted to die. Her plan was to pour herself a glass of her favorite chardonnay, put on her most stylish nightgown and leave behind a note on embossed stationery.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘All we have is this moment. The future is just a fucking concept that we use to avoid being alive today. So be… here…. now.’ (Six Feet Under)

‘On the train coming here, we were in the same cart, I saw you, you were reading and you feel asleep. I didn’t dare to look at you, you were so beautiful, it was scary. Afterwards,  I couldn’t stop thinking about you. It made me smile. Then I thought of all the men who would get to hold you, who’d make you laugh. How lucky they were.’ (Enemy at the Gates)

‘It was a good day. Maybe even a great day. Even when it was hard, I was the me in my head. There was a moment when I thought I cant do this, I cant do this alone. I close my eyes and imagine myself doing it, and I did, I blocked out the fear, and I did it.’ (Greys)

‘There comes a time when we must expose our weaknesses. When our secrets can no longer remain private, when our solitude can no longer be denied, when our pain can no longer be ignored, but sometimes we feel so alone that a weakness we thought we’d overcome suddenly becomes too strong to fight.’ (Desperate Housewives)

‘Why did you get married, Esti? Why didn’t you just leave? So everything was all right when I left?’
‘No. I was ill.’
‘What sort of ill?’
‘In my head.’
‘If I had to sleep with a man, why not with our best friend?’
‘Oh, Esti…’
‘It hasn’t been a complete disaster.’
‘And that’s enough?! Do you have to have sex every Friday?’
‘It’s expected.’
‘It’s medieval. What happened to you?’
‘Nothing. You happened to me. And then I started teaching and that became important. I give them ambition.’
‘To do what? Push out seven babies and be a good wife?’
‘Don’t. Don’t. I help them to value themselves.’
‘Okay, but what about you?’
‘That is me. And you? Are you happy?’
‘Yes, I am.’
‘Have you been with other women?’
‘No. Not really. And you?’
‘No.’
‘But, Esti… Do you still
only fancy women?’ (Disobedience)

‘OK, then, listen. Let’s not get caught.’
‘What are you talkin’ about?’
‘Let’s keep goin’!’
‘What d’you mean?’
‘Go.’
‘You sure?’
‘Yeah. Yeah.’ (Thelma & Louise)

‘She let me live at Nora’s house. She let me believe that I was a part of their family. I fell in love with that family. What am I supposed to do, just sit there, pretend I’m related to them? I was happy. For the first time in my life I was happy.’ (Brothers and Sisters)

‘You will be left all alone with your bitterness and your rage and your knowledge that you loved her and she loved you and you threw it away for them.’
‘Do you love her?’
‘Yes.’
‘And Have you always?’
