Movie: Pepperminta (Pipilotti Rist, 2009, Switzerland, Austria, 80 min.) 
Date: Jan 30, 2010
Rating: 
(No need for LSD anymore..)
Plot: The playful Pepperminta wants to liberate people from their fears and make the world a more human place.
Cast: After 15 minutes I was ready to kick that constantly cheerful smile off her face.
Visuals: Director Pipilotti Rist (yes, really) has a talent for colors and visuals. Beautiful psychedelic happenings throughout the movie.
Conclusion: I think most men will be a bit distracted by the whole menstrual thing, I know I was. Still, it’s a beautiful fairy tale mixed with some morality play and lots of wacky weirdness and visuals. Great fun!

Movie: Samson & Delilah (Warwick Thornton, 2009, Australia, 101 min. )
Date: Jan 30, 2010
Rating:
(grim, harsh and uncomfortable with some everlasting love)
Plot: When two aboriginal teenagers try to flee their stuffy village, life elsewhere turns out to be not much better.
Cast: The main male character had almost no lines, but he managed to deliver a nice performance.
Visuals: We’re spared the obvious Outback shots and for that I’m grateful, kinda refreshing..
Conclusion: It’s a very dark place to be in, this world of Samson and Delilah. But there’s ska to alleviate some glumness and there’s this unconditional love between the two teenagers that shines through it all.
It’s easy to criticize the movie for being too focused on all the bad things happening to the aboriginals instead of the recent more positive developments, but my reaction would be something like: fuck off, you guilt-ridden, politically correct wanker. It still is necessary to show their plight as long as it takes decades to admit to and reckon with things like The Stolen Generations.

Movie: Autumn Adagio (Inoue Tsuki, 2009, Japan, 70 min. )
Date: Jan 30, 2010
Rating:
(Sweet, soft and sad..)
Plot: A catholic nun gets confused around the age of forty about her emotions and sexuality, as a result of her encounters with three very different men.
Cast: Solid cast, lead actress Rei Shibakusa really made you identify with the internal struggles.
Visuals: Autumn as a theme, so lots of shots of golden tree leaves in parks, etc. For most parts a very sober use of visuals.
Conclusion: Nice movie, kept me entertained and interested in the story development. Sometimes funny and sad at the same time.
