i have heard of disneynature before but , it was a trailer for
chimpanzee
, but back then i thought it was going to be just another documentary about creature ' s lives , formed into a story . at first when i looked at this documentary ,
wings of life
my first impression was it was going to be about butterflies , and birds and bees and all those flying pollinators . but i was in for a surprise . that surprise was what got me hooked up , the documentary was literally turned into a story , like a nature ballet and the

are the flowers , inanimate and slightly motionless yet
given souls
as though the flowers were talking themselves , whereas the pollinators are more like supporters in the play . disney has earned credit for that many times ( if you still remember
flowers and trees
) , turning objects into actors with souls . even though disneynature is just a division of the major company , its documentary still carries that surreal magic , its a great movie , i would recommend it to anyone .

the blue hour ( thai : onthakan ) is a 2015 thai horror film directed by anucha boonyawatana .

it was screened in the panorama section of the 65th berlin international film festival .

the blue hour plays may 31 , 2015 , at the inside out film festival in toronto .
[ opv ] [ yaoi ] ภูมิ + ตั้ม โอบ + กัน ( phoom + tum ) เพื่อนเฮี้ยน . . thirteen terrors , the blue hour อนธการ
i don ' t know whether i hated it or loved it ; whether it meant nothing or everything ; whether it was truthy or bullshit . this is truly the what the fuck ? ! film of siff 2015 .
firstly to explain the name of the title
the blue hour
also known as
onthakan
means time between both morning and night , the realm between dreams and reality , or good and evil .
coincidentally , anucha boonyawatana ’s “the blue hour” opens a run at the museum of modern art in a week when two other films playing in new york remind us of the different connotations its color - coded titular adjective has had . andy warhol ’s “blue movie” ( 1968 ) , being shown at the whitney museum , recalls a time when “blue” meant erotic , naughty , titillating . meanwhile , “ born to be blue , ” the new , ethan hawke film about tragic jazz great chet baker , gives us the same hue as a synonym for beat , down , melancholic .
noe had to spend 20 - hour days poring over his naked images in order to have the film ready . ultimately his 3d ejaculation scene became the most talked about scene at the festival .
the blue hour is a sexy supernatural love story about a bullied loner , tam , who finds solace in the arms of phum , a boy he meets at a haunted swimming pool . phum reveals that his family ' s land has been stolen and the new found lovers imagine a perfect life together on the disputed land . haunted by a ghostly presence , tam struggles to stay connected to reality . an official selection of the berlin international film festival , the blue hour is a dark atmospheric tale of love and distress .
available on dvd and digital platforms 3 / 8 / 16 . the blue hour is a sexy supernatural love story about a bullied loner , tam , who finds solace in the arms of phum , a boy he meets at a haunted swimming pool . phum reveals that his family’s land has been stolen and the new found lovers imagine a perfect life together on the disputed land . haunted by a ghostly presence , tam struggles to stay connected to reality . an official selection of the berlin international film festival , the blue hour is a dark atmospheric tale of love and distress .
other , more malevolent forces soon intrude on the initial idyll , and that’s much to the film’s credit . while “the blue hour” opens in a way suggesting a typical gay coming - of - age tale , it quickly veers away from conventional formulas and expectations by using that genre to springboard into different and much darker ones .
for the first hour , you’d be forgiven for forgetting the blue hour was part of the “dark side of queer film” series . there’s nothing lighthearted about a victim of abuse , but at first the gorgeous cinematography depicts a burgeoning , wandering idyllic relationship in a practically post - apocalyptic urban landscape before slowly dipping into the horror elements . there’s little distinction between fantasy and reality as the film goes along . tam has clearly been traumatized by his life as a longtime victim , and there are hints that part of this psychosis may stem from an unidentified illness .
cannes topper thierry frémaux had naturally been keen to program the film after the festival’s 2013 explicit lesbian drama , blue is the warmest colour , had been a last - minute sensation , coming out of nowhere to win the coveted palme d’or .
“we don’t want to promote what is what . i remember it being a talking point with blue is the warmest colour . ”

i suppose the important question is , is the blue hour good ? the pace is slow and the horrors are introduced just as slowly , but any faster and they would probably seem ridiculous . the film kept me watching , wanting to know what the resolution would be , but i imagine the slow pace will frustrate audiences , and they will probably feel disappointed if they watch for a resolution . the blue hour is in turns gorgeous , creepy , and frustrating—more of a strange experience than a movie you’d walk out of and say , “i really enjoyed that ! ” the film is a lot of things , and it comes together well , although i have a feeling it won’t be to everyone’s taste . a lot of murder , not a lot of boys kissing .
idk if most of the people who watch this film for the first time felt the same way i had which is confusion .
not all the narrative threads quite come together in the blue hour , and it’s a huge testament to the film that it doesn’t really matter . the movie is sensual , mysterious and tense . the mood draws you in deeply , and it just makes you crave for more . this is one of the few films this year i’m already eager to rewatch — it’s a magical world , full of hints , deceptions and paranoia .
this is one of the more unsettling aspects of the film : tam and phum inhabit an almost empty , haunted landscape , and seem mostly unfazed by the horrors around them , at least at first . early on , tam bashes in the head of a gun - wielding thug and seems frightened but not particularly bothered by the murder . this gives the blue hour the strange logic of a nightmare , where shadowy horrors make sense even though you can’t quite grasp why .
the blue hour is a hard film to sort into a genre . there’s a level of romance , but it’s certainly not a romantic movie . maybe a very slow thriller , or a mostly pleasant horror ? actually , the closest thing to a genre that this feature from thailand falls into is a murakami novel : all vague symbolism , melancholic , alienated teenagers , and bizarre , unsettling magical realism .
this very welcome turn into less familiar territory means that the blue hour can abandon or at least heavily supplement its overly familiar coming - out and first - love romance angle , with several scary occurrences and twists producing both welcome and unwelcome frissons that’ll keep audiences on their toes . but boonyawatana’s command of the film ' s tricky , mercurial tone isn’t strong enough to keep the film readable or even just engaging throughout and at almost 100 minutes , there’s at least a good 15 minutes that feel like filler material .

though noé didn’t want to cast porn actors in love , which he insists is not a porn film .
it’s interesting that one of these meanings evokes the eye , cinema and pleasure , while the other relates to the ear , music and pain . but which of them fits “the blue hour” ? take your pick . perhaps the most striking and noteworthy thing about this independent thai film is that it intertwines the two meanings so deftly and completely . in so doing , it reminds us that while films in the west usually present sexual pleasure as primarily a bodily function and a ( temporary ) flight from death , in asian cinema the same phenomenon often has a spiritual dimension that connects with , rather than flees , mortality .
on the character level , i find tam ( the sensitive one ) more relatable and believable than phum ( who ' s a victim of the film ' s dreamlike state ) . some of the dialogue seems a bit on the nose , but it ' s hard to judge these things via subtitles . also , much of the film is shot quite beautifully .

overall : t ' was a great and unique movie i could say since it made me feel curious and had my urge to re - watch this film .

although love , strife , and horror do eventually settle into some sort of alignment , the set of messages conveyed by their combination is hardly profound : repression generates aggression , there ' s respite in tenderness , and endless stories of troubled souls can certainly invade your sleep . but while dreams obviously don ' t always follow standard logic , invoking them to justify random plot shifts feels like an awfully convenient way of papering over the arbitrary . and if , as the blue hour ' s sugary ending implies , it was indeed all just a dream , what ' s the point in falling asleep in the first place ? there are far less convoluted ways to arrive at the same obvious goal .
i have a particular interest in the works of hitchcock , kurasawa , nolan , lynch , malick , wong kar - wai , welles , and scorsese . i am developing an interest in southeast and east asian cinema . my research areas include film and literary theory . i am currently working on the topic of film , memory , and dreams - subjectivity in cinema . and i still love spielberg and lucas .
the digital cinematography , with its frequently shallow depth of field , toggles smoothly between crisp and darkly suggestive images , though chapavich temnitikul ’s score is much better at ratcheting up the tension than at accompanying the melodrama . besides the camerawork , production designer phairot siriwat ' s atmospheric locations are the key contribution that enhance the production values of this no - doubt very modestly budgeted independent film .
that ' s more or less where i ' m at . i compared the movie to mulholland dr . above , but that last half - hour is more like lost highway or inland empire , really . mulholland dr . actually resolves into a pretty straightforward narrative once you look at it , which can ' t really be said for the other two movies mentioned .
when i finish watching the film , my reaction was like ;
huh , what happen ? !
,
who did this and who did that ? !

what could have been a clever metaphor ( internalized homophobia literalized as a ghost ) is wasted in a boring ugly - looking movie , filmed in the darkest way possible , making details , important details , fade into blackness . aesthetically , there ' s little hang onto with this film as everything is inscrutable . the cool blues and teals are omnipresent and oppressive , choking out anything else in the film . overall , it was a chore to sit through , proving that even lgbt films can be tedious .
917 international guests , including more than 400 film industry professionals , flocked to montreal over the course of this year’s three - week festival and its frontières market . the festival team is delighted to have welcomed over 100 international journalists , including esteemed representatives from the hollywood reporter , variety , screen international , the wall street journal , the daily beast , indiewire , and le monde .
not exactly the most coherent effort but i appreciate any attempt at queer storytelling within the horror genre . overall the film is very much a question mark , and i struggled to make sense of what was happening throughout , but this was a mood piece first and foremost and it certainly exceeds in crafting an unsettling atmosphere .
“the character is not myself but he’s partly me and partly all these other guys i was hanging out with when i was in film school . you can see that murphy really likes cinema with all the posters in his room ; maybe he’s working as a second assistant director on a tv show . in any case the guy’s full of himself . the movie is about the failure of our success . ”
ahh , the french . and yes , he says the sex club is real .
the 19th edition of the fantasia international film festival returned to concordia university’s hall and j . a de sève theatres , and secured record numbers at montreal’s mccord museum , la grand bibliothèque , yuk yuk’s comedy club , and parc de la paix in the quartier des spectacles . for the sixth consecutive year , the festival succeeded in attracting more than 100 , 000 spectators for 195 indoor screenings , three outdoor screenings , eight virtual reality films , and numerous special events .
yes to both . the stuff with the mother honestly did very little for me ; same with the stuff with the brother . for me , the imagery outweighed all of that - - the junkyard , with its writhing masses of detritus and mysterious gunmen , for instance .

basically the story of a man forced to finally see the injustice around him . riley’s movie is designed to do the same thing to you . …
“it’s the only job where you can stop a girl in the street and get her number in one second . david lynch says it gives you entry into worlds you cannot get into otherwise and it’s true that being a director opens a lot of doors . it’s weird how people care about being in movies . if you do a mafia film you call the mafia guy and he’s going to tell you all his secret stories . ”
so i also saw this twice , and it is weird , even after you accept the genre mashup going on . for example ( mild spoilers going forward ) , when a ghost , evil spirit , or whatever finally seems to appear , the tension immediately dissipates and the mood shifts from terror to sadness and hopelessness . ( not to say this scene isn ' t scary . ) what seems to be going on is that most of the events of the second half of the film represent tam ' s state of mind , not events that are really happening . the continuity problems alone are enough to indicate this . but i struggle to make sense of the ending whether it ' s real or not .
on a motorcycle that phum borrows , the boys leave the city and visit a garbage dump on land that phum says his family owns and that still could provide them a fortune . but now the place is a morbid nightmare realm out of charles dickens by way of david cronenberg . it seems to conjure all of the demons buried in tam’s psyche , even as it turns up guns , corpses , criminal activity linked to tam’s brother , and ghosts that connect back to certain unquiet spirits sensed at that ramshackle swimming pool , to which the film eventually returns .
noé would go on to make the less successful drug - drenched melo - drama , enter the void , all the while knowing it would be love that would again capture the audience’s attention . yet it took some time to fund .
thereafter , they strip down to their undershorts and plunge into the enveloping blueness of that derelict swimming pool . the action evokes baptism , rebirth , the safety of the womb and a range of other possible associations , but its main function is to unite the boys in their own world - away - from - the - world . boonyawatana shows them looking up from underneath the water , and gives us pov shots of the world above . in real life , of course , filthy water like this would be the ticket to a variety of eye ailments , but here we’re meant to focus on the sensory wonderment and romantic connection .
the relationship only really takes off when phum subsequently shows up at tam’s home , manages to remain unseen by tam’s mother by climbing up to the roof , and the two start hanging out . during a trip to a garbage dump that’s on land that used to belong to phum’s family , the film starts to move into much darker territory , as things seem to move underneath the trash and corpses , gunmen and other assorted bogeymen seem to appear both here and in other places - - and it becomes clear that at least some of these elements might be manifestations of tam’s subconscious . indeed , phum foreshadowed as much during their first meeting when he suggested there were ghosts present at the abandoned pool , a hint one should never take lightly in films from the country of filmmakers such as apichatpong weerasethakul .
yup . i still don ' t know what this movie is . it ' s creepy . it ' s frustrating . time moves independently of the film . you ' ll think you watched three minutes of a really slow movie and 15 minutes will have passed . at other times , you ' ll insist that time has stopped altogether . i ' m not sure what this movie is , but it is fascinating .
a cannes regular , the argentina - born french director loves to shock , though in the past he had dealt more with violence .
the story here opens at a place and time that also evoke that crucial color . at a rundown , abandoned swimming pool , in the bluish light of dusk , two boys who look about high - school age find each other , apparently having arranged the rendezvous on the internet . tam ( attaphan poonsawas ) , the younger and prettier of the two , arrives bearing the scars of beatings by school bullies who presumably despise him for being gay . initially he seems a bit hesitant at the appearance of the more masculine and confidant phum ( oabnithi wiwattanawarang ) , who could be another assailant . but the two boys have come here for the same thing , and they are soon groping their way through their first ( clothed and non - explicit ) sexual encounter .
i just really got curious of what really happened to the plot of the story so i basically watch the movie one more time and i just found out what this movie is all about though . lol : p

an interview with terry gilliam , director of
the man who killed don quixote .
in the opening scene of this , there is a really heartbreakingly intimate scene between the two leads . i loved it . that was the end of what i loved about this movie . everything else did . . . not really connect for me and was mostly boring ?
he is , as the late great robert palmer once put it , addicted to love .
both of those selections get at the thing that most grabbed me about the movie , actually : it starts off like a pretty standard coming - of - age story featuring a sensitive gay boy and his more assertive , more experienced boyfriend , and then - - about halfway through - - it takes a turn into david lynchville , circa mulholland dr . there are junkyards full of corpses , dogs who just won ' t die , possible hauntings . and all the while the movie is shot like . . . well , like a pretty standard coming - of - age story featuring a sensitive gay boy . i watched the film twice in a week and i still can ' t figure out exactly what to do with it . for all of lynch ' s weirdness , he is at least comforting in that you know what ' s coming ; his style and his content are closely aligned . what ' s interesting - - and frustrating and intriguing - - about this movie is precisely the way in which , with a couple of exceptions , style and content don ' t align .
“sometimes the addiction is more self - destructive , sometimes less . there is something in the chemicals when we’re in love that really drives us crazy . the movie shows that love is not only a land of pleasure and joy , but also a land of war and fear . ”
i didn ' t even look at the ratings , so now i ' m a bit nervous ( the two reviews i posted are mixed - leaning - positive ) . even if it ' s a bust , though , i ' m curious to know how the movie strikes you .
tam ( atthaphan poonsawas ) , whose bullies think nothing of leaving him beaten up and bleeding on the sports fields of their school , meets phum ( oabnithi wiwattanawarang ) at a pool complex that’s abandoned and somewhat eerie but at least offers the two total privacy . they’ve clearly hooked up via the internet and young tam ' s obviously not familiar with the etiquette of random trysts , though here , and despite the not - exactly - sexy surroundings , he’s not shy to go after what he wants .
in this strange and haunting ghost story , a bullied gay teenager has a steamy tryst with a stranger he met on the internet , only to have the affair take on darker and more mysterious connotations .
tam , a victim of physical abuse at the hands of his family and classmates , meets phum , a mysterious teenage drifter , in an abandoned pool complex for a hookup . phum explains that the place is haunted before the two fool around , but a close relationship develops . tam’s fragile emotional state and illness mean reality begins to fall apart , toward a world where unseen spirits threaten—or aid ? —the living .
so , there ' s tam , a cute high school boy whom we meet after he ' s had a beating . in an abandoned pool , he meets phum . they exchange handies . phum tells tam to exhale all the air and submerge himself in the pool . this is the last normal thing to happen .
that scene where the ghost or whatever it is appears is particularly good , i think , and for precisely the reasons you mention . it ' s actually really tense - - though that may be my own inexperience with that kind of ghost - story talking - - but the tension is a build - up to something much more devastating ( and i do find the end pretty devastating , even if i don ' t understand it ) .

an anthology of short stories about the last day of people ' s lives inspired by newspaper headlines from 2012 - 2016 .
most of the reviews i ' ve read focus on the movie ' s interaction with lgbtq issues in thailand , and that ' s certainly a major theme . but i think it ' s only a major theme , depending on how you read the last twenty minutes or so ( which i won ' t spoil , on behalf of those who hate spoilers ) .
glusman , who has a minor part in roland emmerich’s upcoming gay drama stonewall , was thrown in at the deep end .
“gaspar had decided to start with a close up of my genitals , ” he recalls of the first day of shooting .
a sexy supernatural love story about a bullied loner , tam , who finds solace in the arms of phum , a boy he meets at a haunted swimming pool . phum reveals that his family ' s land has been stolen and the new found lovers imagine a perfect life together on the disputed land . haunted by a ghostly presence , tam struggles to stay connected to reality .
“the good thing about this movie is all the people i proposed to be on - screen knew my previous movies and knew we were doing something valuable , a real movie about a real subject — love — and not something dirty , ” noé says .
“it’s more like a joke rather than creating a scandal . i wanted to have fun , to play with the audience . ”
it does have a lot of things i like in films : gays , sad hugs , water metaphors ; but i had a hard time adjusting to the constant genre switch . surprisingly , the ending ( what an ending ) didn ' t completely lost me .
eventually the story swirls into a lynchian hellscape at half speed . you ' re bored to tears by the lethargic pace , but simultaneously there ' s nothing but entertainment . the two boys make out in a garbage dump . there ' s a body count . mold is involved . it ' s all dream logic - y and maybe not even in chronological order . somebody may have schizophrenia .
interesting for awhile , but it was just too enigmatic ultimately to connect with me . i did appreciate the filmmaking craft on display .
though he will say the ejaculation scene was 70 % as it happened and that he added one additional spray squarely aimed at audiences .

thing is , i don ' t think that the ending is particularly sugary . for one thing , the reality - dream stuff is so mixed up here that i ' m not convinced that the last shot isn ' t also in tam ' s head . for another - - well , on first viewing my impression was that tam was leading phum out into the water in order to commit murder - suicide ( this reading would depend on taking the death of tam ' s family as a real - world event ) . on second viewing , i was less certain . but , whatever ' s going on there , it certainly isn ' t sweetness - and - light . it isn ' t sugary .
tam , a timid loner , is bullied regularly by his fellow pupils at school . he is met with similar rejection and suspicion within the narrow confines of his parents’ dingy home , where his father beats him . one day tam arranges online to meet phum at a derelict swimming pool . they are both looking for sex , but their encounter leaves them with a feeling of comfort and security . a close bond develops between the two boys and , before long , they are roaming the rubbish heaps and dark corners of the city together , day and night . phum opens a door for tam , revealing a fantastical parallel universe full of spirits and dangerous encounters . although he feels safe and loved for the first time in his life , tam can no longer differentiate between dream and reality and finds himself increasingly drawn into a spiral of paranoia and violence . in his feature debut boonyawatana leads his protagonist into an ambiguous microcosm full of chasms , at the same time cleverly toying with the conventions of different genres .
for the music i gave it a 1 . 0 because honestly i don ' t really recall their being any music until the very end sadly and i was looking forward well i ' m always looking forward to music in horror movies that ' s just cause i ' m weird .
after a somewhat nervous and quick first sexual encounter ( nudity and sex are more often suggested than actually shown ) , the two get talking around the pool and tam reveals something of his day - to - day misery at school and at home , where his mother ( duangjai hirunsri ) whines about his father hating
it
( i . e . , his sexual orientation ) and wonders out loud why her son can’t have any pity on her and simply ignore his desire to be with men . though it’s clear why the uncomfortable scenes with tam’s family are needed , boonyawatana and co - screenwriter waasuthep ketpetch don’t do themselves any favors here with some extremely didactic and on - the - nose ( at least in the subtitles ) dialogue .
it may not be
goo - goo eyed ,
but it does appear that the principals don ' t have a body hair between them . i ' ve thought before that the word
hairless
is often code for something else , but i haven ' t figured out quite what .
i ' ve thought before that the word
hairless
is often code for something else , but i haven ' t figured out quite what .
one of the things that ' s interesting to me here - - and this is related to the genre - play alluded to above - - is the fact that these boys are very much types . if much of this movie is in tam ' s head , it makes sense to me that phum might wind up being much more typically seme ( to cross from one asian country to another ) - - though i think he ' s not just that .
ok , so i mentioned this movie in another thread and made a ( fruitless ) inquiry on facebook about it a few weeks back , but i ' m wondering if anyone has gotten a chance to watch this movie ? trailer and some review links and then my thoughts . if you want to watch the movie unspoiled ( which i did ) , i ' d advise skipping the trailer , which really doesn ' t get at the central weirdness of this movie :
they had demurred on the explicit sex , yet violent french films ( including their pairing in jan kounen’s ultra - violent thriller dobermann ) didn’t pose such a threat .

i gave the acting cast a 7 . 0 / 10 because i ' ve actually seen other movies with the main actors who ' s done a lot better job giving them 10 / 10 and i always rate with a 9 . 0 if it was really good because you never know when something else will come along and be just as good but if it amazed me to a point i had no choice then of course its a 10 / 10 .

i rated the story a 5 . 0 / 10 only because phum was basically leading tam to a dark place in life and that ' s not something anyone should be doing to somebody especially when they ' re going through what tam has gone through .

“in most societies whether they’re western or not , people want to control the sexual behaviour or to organise it in a precise context . sex is like a danger zone . sometimes class barriers fall down and it scares a lot of people . it’s about states controlling their systems , like religion . ”
i ' m about to give it a shot . i note that it has remarkably low ratings on imdb and netflix , but , on the other hand , experience suggests that if something strikes nbooth as weird , it ' s very weird - enough to be at least interesting . another preliminary observation going in :
the movie is actually i wouldn ' t say really scary unless you get terrified easily but it was very creepy like scary creepy and there is a scene that you must be careful of cause you may not be sleeping at night if you happen to be watching this at 8 o ' clock at night , so yeah basically as it says it ' s a horror movie .

“i didn’t ask karl to show me but i knew a girl who slept with him and she said he is ‘gifted’ . ”
glusman said he quickly got used to a minimum of six people staring at his private parts .
noé’s stance has long been that he doesn’t want audiences to know which bits are for real .
“in what you call ‘adult movies’ there are no feelings at all . you never see people kissing or talking about pregnancy . you never see any girl having her periods and you never see a girl with regular pubic hair . it’s like a separate world that has nothing to do with normal life .
as with nymphomaniac , by another cinematic renegade , lars von trier , love isn’t as titillating as it might seem .
he plays murphy , a self - obsessed filmmaker , who is in a happy relationship with electra ( muyock ) until a night of lust with his neighbour omi ( kristin ) and a broken condom leads to a pregnancy .
of course powerful or famous people are highly susceptible , as well as directors like murphy and noé .
and , at 51 , noé says he still likes going to night clubs . still a bad boy indeed .
