Looking for Richard – A Film Review
Looking for Richard and Looking for Relevance by Vago Damitio It would seem that one of the major tasks facing filmmakers and story tellers of all stripes today is to find relevance between the story being told and the lives we lead.

A Memento of Henri Bergson – Christopher Nolan’s Memento
A Memento of Henri Bergson You may think that you are free, but you are not. You may think that each action you take is an unrestrained choice, but it is not. You ( and everyone else) are incarcerated in a prison that controls every action you take and every decision you make. Even the…

Pilgrim was perhaps a bad job of casting, though the actor’s expressions were sometimes fun, though…
The Third Man – a very short review by Vago Damitio
The Third Man A very short review by Vago Damitio I suppose this might have been the movie that personified a genre, but it didn’t work for me. I enjoyed it, but not enough to remember anything but annoyance. The message from the smirking Orson Wells, however, that killing people is what governments and business…
