Well, hello there, kind folks. If you’re visiting this blog of mine, I presume that you have a certain interest in the cinema. As for me, even since my early childhood, I have had a deep love of everything related to movies and television. As far as I can remember, I have been more at ease in front of a screen than in the yard, outside, playing. It is a great way to travel, though other people’s stories, without having to foot any kind of steep bill. Over the years, I feel that movie-watching has even fuelled my own creativity.

All that being said, I welcome you in my Cinephile’s Nest. I hope you enjoy it here, feel free to come back at any time. Here you will find reviews of current movies and older ones. TV shows also. Some classics that have remained some of my favourites, some that have disappointed me. I will use a very basic star (*) system to grade them from 1 to 5 (5 being sliced bread level). Remember, these are just my tastes. I will try to explain in each review what I liked about these particular movies, without giving spoilers.

Il y aura aussi des critiques en français pour les films francophones, car j'aime également le cinéma dans ma langue maternelle. Avant d'apprendre l'anglais, plus jeune, je louais des tonnes de films traduits en français, surtout ceux de Bud Spencer et Terrence Hill. Ma mère a eu le choc de sa vie lorsqu'un jour, dans la boîte d'un de ces films, Deep Throat avait malencontreusement inséré. Une expérience formatrice pour le jeune cinéphile que je suis.

Bienvenue à tous, amusez-vous bien.

I welcome you all here, enjoy yourself.

Borders of Love (2022)

Genre: Drama
Directed by: Tomasz Winski
Cast: Hana Vagnerova, Matyas Reznicek, Eliska Krenkova
Time: 95 minutes


 

Hana and Petr are a young couple who are getting bored with the routine of their love life, and after discussing their personal fantasies, they decide to try opening their relationship as a way to spice things up.

This erotic Czech-Polish film was easy enough to follow for me who does not speak the language, with the help of subtitles. The dialogue is not too heavy, so you easily read along and follow the action. It is an interesting study on the boundaries of love. Sure, the outcome is a little predictable, but it is still a fun little movie. It doesn’t revolutionize, but it entertains.
