Absolutely wonderful

What movie the critics saw in Cannes??? Because the movie that I attended in São Paulo's premiere this Monday (25 Aug) is simply wonderful. Meirelles's direction is so excellent as in "The Constant Gardener" and "City of God". Also, the movie counts with fabulous acting of Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, Gael García Bernal, Danny Glover and Alice Braga. The hard and sometimes shocking content of "Blindness" is perfectly equilibrated with a welcome hope touch. "Blindness" is really a powerful lesson of cinema and acting. The best tribute that someone could give to Saramago.

10/10...more

ComingSoon.net has an exclusive look at the first three minutes from Chapter 27, opening in theaters on Friday, March 28.

Chapman's motives were fabricated from pure delusion, fueled by an obsession with the fictional character Holden Caulfield and his similar misadventures in J.D. Salinger's "Catcher in the Rye."...more
