Film mania!

Where October was full booked with concerts,  No-mo-vember is a busy film month!

Hasta la vista / Come as you are (director: Goeffrey Enthoven)  ***½
.. a really nice Flemish movie about 3 disabled guys in their twenties on a road trip to Spain in order to visit a brothel that caters to people with disabilities.  This movie is widely entertaining but has a touchy side as well. 


Let's talk about Kevin (director: Lynne Ramsay) ****½:
Waauw ..just brilliant!  The story explores the factious relationship between a mother and her son, 112mins of unrelenting tension!  All kudos to Tilda Swinton, her performance brings it to a higher level.  Dear Kirsten Dunst, you're awesome, but Tilda should have won that price in Cannes!!

Remember my post about the cosy shop de Huiszwaluw? They moved now to a really nice location at Hoogpoort.  It's a must go!
