"Visually very pretty; the performance by the actors work well. Some things on the plot look a little bit forced or just poorly suggested (ie, some of Elphaba's moral decisions); strong points of the plot: Elphaba as someone that didn't receive great affection from her caregivers, her difference from others, which make her into a very independent, defensive person, the portrayal of the avoidant character is the best part of the movie. I'll take the confidence of the avoidant as fiction."
Marcello Mio (2024) - Rated 27 Dec 2024
Diamant brut (2024) - Rated 16 Nov 2024
"A young girl that deals with difficult family relationships, personal past trauma, multiple mechanisms of self defense, sees a way out of her situation by possibly taking part on a reality show. The performance by Khebizi displays in an outstanding way the dissatisfaction of the character. The strong point of the screenplay is presenting the anxiety, self defense, the avoidance of the character, a certain denial of her current situation, all of these things follow some implied deeper trauma."

"Sam makes small movies about multiple things. When he graduates high school he makes "Ditch Day 1964", here he makes one of his bullies look like a hero, a talanted sportsman, strong, beautiful. The bully didn't like the way he was portrayed, Sam justifies himself: 'I did it to make my movie better'. Spielberg is saying that there's an intentional distance between reality and what is shown in movies. All the cliches and artificial moments are designed for fiction, it doesn't have to be real."
