1995 was a particularly prolific year for Quentin Tarantino. Among other things, it was the year in which the weird From Dusk Till Dawn came out, based on a script that he wrote for 1,500 dollars kinda as an excuse for Robert Kurtzman’s special effects rather than to write a cinematic masterpiece (in fact, it’s deliberately a … More From Dusk Till Dawn: Movie Review

But since the other day I re-watched The Birds, which he made in 1963 just after making Psycho (in 1960 – the three-years break is due to his television work), why not writing about it? And … More The Birds: Movie Review
Tutti sappiamo che Alfred Hitchcock era un genio del cinema, non c’è bisogno di leggerlo su vengonofuoridallefottutepareti. Ma visto che giusto l’altro giorno mi sono riguardato il suo The Birds (Gli uccelli), che sfornò nel 1963 subito dopo quel capolavoro di Psycho (1960 – i tre anni di pausa sono dovuti ai suoi lavori televisivi), … More The Birds: recensione del film
