The International

I know that today was April Fools Day, but despite that it's wednesday and of course we went to see a movie at our favourite movie theatre...
Unfortunatelly the whole gang couldn't make it (some people are going to Paris next week and they have no time for watching movies with normal people, who are staying in Bucharest... and that means no popcorn fight either because in 2 it's not exactly a fight, it's more like sharing the popcorn).
Luckily it was a serious movie so the popcorn fight didn't take place at all...
We saw The International http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0963178/ with Clive Owen (gorgeous as ever) and Naomi Watts and directed by my favourite german director Tom Tykwer. It's an impressive movie, not only because of the beautiful scenery (the Italian coast is spectacular, the chase on Istanbul roofs deserves a mention, and of course "la piece de resistance" ;P is the fight in the Guggenheim museum in New York - actually as you will see in the short movie below it's not exactly Guggenheim, because they would have closed it for renovations after this movie) but also because the subject it's extremely interesting and actually it was inspired after a true story (the BCCI scandal from the 1980's), which is quite scary!
A really good movie worth watching, so you should see it... even in Paris :)



P.S. As you can see I become better and better at posting short movies on my blog :)

Un comentariu:

  1. girl, even if i was to go to paris to see a movie i would have probabily seen "Banlieue 13:Ultimatum" ..but i was very sorry i missed that one with you, it wouldn't have been so serious movie with me there:D.
    and speaking of leaving the country, you will go too. eastern europe awaits you. hey, listen to how this sounds, by comparison: PARIS - CHISINAU !!! :)) (i'm joking of course). so "ar voar, ma petit ami"..or something;))
