LUX FILM PRIZE DAYS
This year 5, not 3 as usual, movies were nominated.
Östlund has a habit of telling film people about his next film so he does it a few hundred times to test reactions. His next is going to take place on a plane which is about to crash and when the entertainment system fails. When he heard in the past that his movie "La force majeure" was nominated for an Oscar, he demolished the room. Apparently his protagonists mirror himself.
TRIANGLE OF SADNESS
Recommended again. For the note of levity in treating all topics and catching more details, e.g. the double, or even triple, meaning behind "filthy rich", the donkey being animatronic, a bar code on Carl's skin like in "الرجل الذي باع ظهره" ("The Man Who Sold His Skin"), a glass rolling like in "Titanic", the wife of the Russian who "sells shit" getting covered in it and the wife of the grenade dealer asking: "is it one of ours?" A work of genius. Even if quotes are different in Polish and English versions.
