Pretty in pink is one of my favourite films
I’ve linked to this amazing embroidery project before, but this piece just blew my mind and stole my heart to the point that I’m hoping I can snatch it when it goes on sale. Everybody knows how important teenage films are in my life. cheap Femara
Marlene Dietrich in Witness for the Prosecution
I watched Witness for the Prosecution (Billy Wilder, 1957) for the first time a few months ago (back before I completely immersed myself in teenpics) and I was blown away by Marlene Dietrich’s performance. Easily one of the most powerful performances by a female actor that I’ve seen in a very long time. Top film [...]
Midnight in Paris (Woody Allen, 2011)
Hi there! It’s me again! I like this blog so much that I take every opportunity to pop in here. No, this time I’m not going to talk about another travelling experience. This time I’m going to write a review about the latest movie by Woody Allen: Midnight in Paris. First, let me tell you [...]
My feelings illustrated by a bunch of gifs
I am a child of the technological generation. I barely remember a time when there wasn’t a computer in my house and among the most painful memories of my teenage years is the fact that the internet used to be really slow and I was only allowed to get online for a limited amount of [...]

Say Anything
Don’t complain that I’m ruining the film for everybody. I warned you last week.
** Andrea Presents ** "Say Anything"

If you haven’t watched it you should a) go do it now before I give away the ending b) ask yourself what you’re doing reading my blog [...]
Alice in Wonderland (1903)
Yesterday I came across this 1903 version of Alice in Wonderland and I find it truly fascinating. I have to admit that I don’t watch many silent films because I mostly find them boring and have to watch them in several sittings (if any of my professors are reading this, I’m sorry, but it’s true), [...]
I wouldn’t mind living in The King’s Speech
I know I’m a bit late here, but I had totally forgotten to post about this film. I watched The King’s Speech (Tom Hooper, 2010) when it came out in my failed attempt to watch every film nominated for an Academy Award and it left me wanting a time machine (and a job in London, some [...]
The Executioner (Luis García Berlanga, 1963)
I watched The Executioner (Luis García Berlanga, 1963) for the first time last weekend. It’s amazing how clueless I am when it comes to Spanish cinema. Set in 1960s Spain, during the last part of Franco’s dictatorship, the film shows a country that appears to be going through a metamorphoses. The executioner’s daughter, who [...]
