The Brutalist

Interlocking worlds is the main advantage of The Lovely Bones movie. Peter Jackson has managed to build two universes, two micro-cosmoses. One is the real America of the 70th, a provincial town in which this thriller takes place. The second is a world of fantasies and illusions of Susie, the movie protagonist. It is the space of inexpressible beauty, with the number of perfect landscapes, oases of the dreams. It's so exciting, that will not immediately come to mind at least some analogues, this magical fantasy world in which dwells Susie, do not even comparable with something else. And Jackson so subtly approached the issue that has managed through unprecedented visual beauty and conveys the inner meaning of which he endowed with a beautiful image of the protagonist.

Ballet 422 is a 2015 documentary by cinematographer and documentarian Jody Lee Lipes, and offers viewers a rare look behind the curtain of the professional world of ballet. The film follows Justin Peck, the 25-year-old choreographer of the New York City Ballet as he strives to create the ballet company's 422nd original piece while also balancing other professional commitments in the ballet world. This film offers an intimate look at Peck's creative process, and has been well received by critics.

This piece is a must-see for anyone who is thinking of becoming a professional in the ballet world, or for any passionate ballet enthusiast who wants to learn more about what goes on behind the curtain.
