AFI Fest 2006
And the Winner is ... Awards & Greetings from AFI Fest.




After After
When I read the synopsis, After looked pretty promising, combining the virgin territories of urban exploration to a soundtrack by US electronic act The Crystal Method.

The Banquet The Banquet
After its opening 30 minutes, it became clear that The Banquet was transcending its genre's formula.

Bug Bug
Bug marks the great return of William Friedkin, one of the masters of American cinema.

Come Early Morning Come Early Morning
In Come Early Morning, Ashley Judd is Lucy, a beautiful and washed out woman, a lost soul in some remote Kansas town, who gets drunk in bars and picks up losers for the night

Days of Glory Days of Glory
Days of Glory is one of these films I would recommend everybody to watch — most particularly in France — even though it's not a good movie.

Feast of the Goat Feast of the Goat
To be frank, Anaconda and Sniper are way more enjoyable and effective than this ballooned attempt at a serious politically-charged oeuvre.

The Host The Host
By the time The Host hits a screen near you, you may have already heard and read everywhere how great this new entry from South Korean director Joon-ho Bong.


Kurt Cobain: About a Son Kurt Cobain: About a Son
When music journalist Michael Azerrad interviewed Kurt Cobain, he didn't know that these long conversations would become a historical document, as the emblematic Nirvana singer would take his own life the following months.

The Lives of Others The Lives of Others
What makes The Lives of Others such an appealing work is that it manages to convey a message intelligently, without being to pretentious about it.

Next: A Primer on Urban Painting Next: A Primer on Urban Painting
In Next: A Primer on Urban Painting, filmmaker Pablo Aravena documents graffiti art around the world, from the gritty streets of New York to the dark catacombs of Paris.

Transylvania Transylvania
With a title like Transylvania and the presence of dark princess Asia Argento, you could have expected gothic vampires and a lot of blood getting sucked, but Gypsy Director Tony Gatlif prefers to take us on a harsh road trip.

Volver Volver
Eternally in love with women, Pedro Almodovar takes up his favorite topic again in Volver, a minor work, on the edge of the fantastic.
