Movies at Dawn

VINCENT: I don't care who you are. You are my son no matter what. Hello everyone! I'm back after a really busy weekend! As our tiny precious local film festival took off on Friday, I finally got to see my most anticipated films of 2021, so I've been running from one film to another for the past few days.  Is this how professional film critics feel all the time? (exaggerated sigh).  Even though I have three more films to see, I am super excited to talk about my favourite one so far: Titane, from the one and only Julia Ducournau. This work of hers hit me too hard this time, I can't stop thinking about it and am looking forward to seeing it once more after watching some interviews.  Well, until then, I'm here to discuss all about it ! Thanks for being here and I hope you enjoy reading the post! Titane is Ducournau's second feature after Raw (2016) .

STEVE: We still love each other, right? DIANE: That's what we're best at, buddy. Hello everyone! I'm back with only a one week delay, which was about to turn to two if I didn't force myself to sit down to write. It's not that I lost interest in this blog (god, no!) , it's because I work all week and Saturdays are my only days off, so I tend to procrastinate writing even though I know I'll feel x10 better when I click on that publish button. Anyway, this week I decided not to be lazy, so to sum up this useless opening paragraph, welcome to this week's post! It's also the first post of the month, so be sure to expect some super exciting (I really can't stop thinking about it) news later this month! I'll give more details about it next week! For this week, I picked another Xavier Dolan film, a feature that is less controversial and definitely more touching: Mommy.
