Voyage of Time: Life's Journey (2016)
Ainulindale and Valequenta
Galadriel the Noldo, the oldest of all living Elves in Middle Earth, recounts the Music of the Ainur, the creation of Arda, and the subsequent fall of Melkor. All living things are contained in her speech, and the magical images she creates for us speak of her immense power and knowledge, bathing the experiencer in a divine light. Upon watching this, one may put to rest his burden and plight, and with renewed vigor come to see them as a simple stepping stone in the Voyage of Time. The Valar are not represented in their physical image, but as allegories. The coming of Iluvatar's children and the corruption of Morgoth is also told in a symbolic fashion, presented by a handful of adventurers who wake in the desert and are drawn to Morgoth without first possessing the eyes to see the Evil and Malice he brings. Those who understand what I'm saying will also understand the documentary, for it is Wisdom condensed into 90 minutes. If you do not see it, I can only say that you are well off your path, seeking entertainment and plot, instead of investing your heart and soul into a transcendental experience. Immersing yourself into the film is a prerequisite, and if you are too proud or too ignorant to do so, be as you are. You will also come to know the Abyss which lies beyond Arda. Of the Fourth Age, the Age of Men, nothing is spoken, for it is still shrouded in the fog of the Future, and Mandos would not speak of it - not even to Manwe. Still waiting for the Quenta Silmarillion, hope Malick jumps on to that next.
Burn After Reading (2008)
This was... Something else.
I went into the cinema expecting a stupid comedy. I got a masterpiece.
All the comments were "funny, entertaining, etc." or the opposite.
Let's start with Brad Pitt. From minute 1 to minute forehead, he makes the audience laugh and giggle. Idiot. And a well played one.
Malkovich is BAD. And by bad I mean perfect. Cold. LOUD. And very, very agitated. He keeps the movie going.
But my greatest joy was seeing Clooney... ACT. Yes, ladies and gentlemen. This movie shows u George Clooney as he should have been shown in every movie to date. He gives a 110% of his acting ability. And Oh boy, there's a whole lot where that came from.
Short. Yes, unfortunately, a bit over an hour and a half. The only downside. But it chains you to that chair. The bros did it again.
They keep you awake and totally focused on the movie. Black humor and a tense storyline. It starts off as a comedy, but ends as a total thriller with a lot of smiles in the end.
Get him on the next plane to Venezuela.
Watch it. Watch it and love it.
