Cinemexpectations #1
It seems like almost a tendency for all good movies, to be released by the end of the year. And the worst part of it? The trailers come along long before the official premieres, which is a huge tease.
So here are several movies that I am looking forward to see by the end of 2011.
As a psychology major and big admirer of Carl Jung and not admirer of Sigmund Freud at all, I am eager to see their historical relationship that gave birth to psychoanalysis on screen. I am filling my basket of expectations, mostly because this is not just a movie about Freud and Jung, but a movie about Freud and Jung directed by David Cronenberg, who just happens to be one of my all-time favorite film makers out there. I would’ve been inpatient to wait this movie out, no matter what it was about just for the sake of Cronenberg’s. On top of that, the man have casted Michael Fassbender as Carl Jung, for whom I have a great admiration ever since I saw him in Hunger. So, hold your horses people and wait till November.
Johnny Depp is back in the game! With all due respect, I was kind of getting fed up seeing him in Disney movies. There is also one hell of a reason, why I am looking forward to see this film – its called Hunter Thompson. Now, the guy is one of the most influential figures of the late counterculture movement, as well as one of my favorite writers of all times. Some good old sex, psychedelic drugs and rum!
An intense thriller back from the days of the Cold War. From the Swedish director Tomas Alfredson, who directed Let the right one in and with a cast of amazing veteran actors like Gary Oldman, Colin Firth and John Hurt. What is there more to ask?
