Among the
recent movie premieres on Movistar Plus +
we have found
six films that are very
worthwhile.
Among them, two of the best Spanish productions of recent months.
BENEDETTA (French erotic drama)
Controversial, with bawdy
scenes
and some of the best performers in French cinema.
This is how this
drama directed by Paul Verhoeven
unleashed all kinds of comments after passing through the Cannes Film Festival.
The plot focuses on Benedetta Carlini (
Virginie Efira
), a woman who, at the end of the 15th century, joins the convent of Pescia (Italy) as a novice.
Based on real events,
this film includes multiple sexual scenes
that show that chastity in that convent was not true.
To highlight the role played in the plot by secondary characters played by
Lambert Wilson and Charlotte Rampling
.
LOVE IN ITS PLACE (Theatrical melodrama)
Rodrigo Cortés
(
Buried
,
Red Lights
) is the director of
one of the great Spanish films of this year.
An exciting story, full of life and in which Cortés performs an
impressive exercise in style by telling the action in real time
the story of a group of actors who represent a play in the Warsaw ghetto with the Nazis watching their every move .
Romance, thriller, drama, musical and even comedy
appear in this feature film shot in English that will surprise many.
WORTH (Courtroom Drama with Michael Keaton)
The
consequences left by the 9/11 attacks on
many relatives of victims are directly and harshly reflected in this
judicial drama starring Michael Keaton.
The actor plays Kenneth Feinberg, a lawyer who helps the relatives of the victims of that tragedy to receive an economic amount as compensation for what they suffered.
A fight to ensure that everyone receives what they deserve that will lead the protagonist of this
story based on real events
to gather his courage to face the implacable and cold US judicial system.
Stanley Tucci plays one of the affected relatives.
THE GOOD BOSS (Comedy-drama with Javier Bardem)
Javier Bardem becomes the owner of a company
that exercises great power over its workers.
As much as to meddle in their private lives and handle them as if they were puppets before a vital visit for the future of their business.
Fernando León de Aranoa
directs this
dramatic comedy that has swept the public and critics
alike (winning, among other awards, 6 Goya Awards) and that launches darts against dehumanization at work and the double standards of many people.
To highlight the great work of secondary as
Almudena Amor, Manolo Solo and Fernando Albizu.
EVERYTHING WAS WELL (French drama about euthanasia)
François Ozon
stirs consciences again with a very personal story.
Now, with a
drama focused on euthanasia starring Sophie Marceau and André Dussollier.
They are in charge of giving life, respectively, to a daughter and her father.
After suffering a stroke, he asks her (and her other daughter) to find a place for him to end her life with dignity.
While the moment arrives, the two will relive events already distant in time,
trying to recover that love that they rarely showed to each other
.
The story is based on the experience of Emmanuele Bernheim, a deceased friend and collaborator of the director.
MAMÁ OR DAD (Comedy with Paco León and Miren Ibarguren)
After making many French people laugh out loud with the story of an almost impossible divorce, it's time for its Spanish version.
In this comedy we find
Paco León and Miren Ibarguren
in the shoes of a couple with children who decide to separate and start a war without quarter.
The reason?
That, in their possible new life,
none of them wants to have custody of the little ones
.
Therefore, they will use all possible tricks to take off the responsibility of taking care of them... and let the other do it.
A twist on divorce comedies.
