SZABADESES (FREE FALL)
Watchable. Great music: both vocal and instrumental. A few stories, all of which are interesting, some are fascinating, one superb (the reversed childbirth).

Watchable. The film's very Spanish - it's a declaration of enjoying your life regardless of circumstances. About living. Here everyone has fun. Watching this I was also full of awe of how good Spanish healthcare must be - everyone is so nice, caring and you get all appointments and treatments in no time. Unfortunately it's one of those mainstream movies which praise radio- and chemotherapy. And the subject dies all the same.
BELLE ET SEBASTIEN: L'AVENTURE CONTINUE (BELLE & SEBASTIAN: THE ADVENTURE CONTINUES)
Watchable. Not as beautiful as the first part. It's very pleasing to watch, ends well, offers some Alpine landscapes. But the story lacks depth and even the mountain views are quite monotonous.
ROOM
Recommended. An Irish film set in the US and spoken in American accent. I can't make out why. Nevertheless it's an amazing thriller which seems to be based on the Cleveland case. Half the film is about living as a captive and the escape plot. The second half is trying to rebuild your life after the unimaginable horror you lived for a number of years. In-depth, up close. Brilliant.
