The media expect that tonight's Oscars will go as well as it can, because "Oppenheimer" is the absolute favorite. Serbia has no representative, and the fact that France also bet on the wrong film, even though they had the right one, cannot diminish the feeling that another good opportunity was missed.
The most important film festival in Serbia starts on Friday, and its selector Jugoslav Pantelić tells "Vreme" that the selection is colorful. He particularly emphasizes the fact that about half of the films were purchased for the festival
Film by Kosta Đorđević Mom's sun, Serbia 2023, does not possess youthful energy nor does it particularly strive to reach it. Although the main character is a high school student, there is no pandering to the taste of a younger audience. Before us is a movie about teenagers intended for adults
From a solid and believable foundation of problem and comedy nature Good boss skillfully and elegantly grows into a story with a much wider and meaningfully more suggestive background
The last night of love strikingly figures both as a successful genre work and as a film that could easily please even the more exclusive supporters of European films with an easily noticeable artistic profile
Here, Mann managed to create a thoroughly reviewed and full-blooded repertory, and at the same time sufficiently less conventional film about an essentially unconventional personality.
In the FCS Hall, which was recently opened in order to show local films, a series of films by Darko Bajić will start tomorrow, which, apart from them, also reminded me of the "Balkan" cinema - the previous specialized cinema in Belgrade
Already at the "doors" of the second act, it becomes obvious that in the opening part, Borgli thoroughly traced the story so that this biting and effective satire would primarily target that (para)culture of cancellation. Without further ado, his point is clear and effective, it is a phenomenon that makes sense and gives reason to think about it in more detail
Ćeranićeva (and Radunovićeva) Sunday is a well-deserved cinema hit, which, alas, in the coming years will surely give us more similar and derivative ones in the attempt of some other authors and producers, but that's the film industry
"Judging by myself, for example, do I know who wrote some of my favorite songs? Well, I have no idea. At the end of the day, when the music is good, it doesn't really matter. The film and the song breathed together and an unplanned success happened. Somehow it played itself out. I was the last to realize that it is performed everywhere. And I'm glad. The song is so much bigger than me that I now have the feeling that it is a folk song"
The film "Amerikatsi" is the first Armenian film to be shortlisted for the American Film Academy Award. Serbia did not even reach the first round
Robert Nemecek, a musician and film lover, died yesterday at the age of 75, his friend, screenwriter Dimitrije Vojinov confirmed on social media
In this century, the local cinema recorded four films about Christmas customs. In the west, they don't even know their number
Film directed by Christopher Nolan won five awards out of eight nominations at the 81st Golden Globe Awards in Los Angeles
After yesterday's list of the best theatrical premieres of last year, today we continue with the best films according to the opinion of "Vremen" critics Zoran Janković and Đorđe Bajić
Zoran Janković and Đorđe Bajić, film critics of "Vremena", launched the first local podcast about the film and everything related to it
It happened that he lived out in life what he played in Love story, the film that made him an icon
The screening of more than one hundred titles of this year's International Queer Film Festival begins and ends with the works of Goran Stolevsky, who was awarded at the festival in Venice
If we leave aside the excellent acting and the acting partnership of young Jovan Ginić and Jasna Đuričić, the problems with this film arise on several levels - for example, in terms of the setting and distribution of the remaining characters. Although obviously more ephemeral, they are here given at the point of croki, with the oppositional side characters within this story burdened with hasty bigotry and general bigotry
"I'm glad that Lost Country, after the French ones, was also recognized by Arab critics. I guess that means that our story about the relationship between mother and son moved the hearts of people in different cultures," says director Vladimir Perišić
Napoleon is certainly a sumptuous film, a lavishly produced, period revival that contains some truly spectacular battle scenes, but is essentially a routine production that offers no new angles, except perhaps a peek into Napoleon and Josephine's bed (which includes a couple of sex scenes that are more appropriate comedy rather than serious drama and we could do without)
We won't make a big mistake if we draw the conclusion that Žarko Laušević doesn't actually have a bad role in his career, and that he was good, very good or excellent even in films that might not have been worthy of his talent. He approached each role studiously, with dignity, he enriched each one and extracted the most possible from each one. There are few actors of such talent in this area
This year, the Author's Film Festival will show more films than ever before in its 29 years. All 12 films in the main program are from another continent
The great actor with whom we identify the characters he played on film and in the theater, Žarko Laušević, died a few days after the end of the series inspired by a detail from his life.
There is very, very little blood in the film and the violence is only hinted at, but not explicitly shown. Older audiences will probably be frustrated by this decision (what's a horror movie if there can't be bloodshed in it?), but kids obviously don't mind.
Here, to a considerable extent, we observe the collision of conflicting mental and worldview sets of values - Serbian patients are prone to hedonism, euphoria, as well as melancholy and fatalism, when it becomes obvious that things are moving in an unfavorable direction, while with French scientists we have an insatiable and unshakable faith in the power of new and new attempts, as well as the inability to fundamentally understand the disarray of the other and the different
