kissgergelylaszlo Movies like this is the reason why some people despise art in general.

icemacpile A very bad movie that has no story whatsoever. And despite what the genre claims to be, this is not a horror.You expect something to happen during the movie to make it worthwhile watching, but this movie just teases you with very boring scenes until the very end.Imagine a movie that has a continuous prologue which lasts 70 minutes and then just ends without anything interesting happening.No actions, no story and funnily enough not even a sight of dialogue. Mr. Beans comedy movies have more dialogue.Not worth watching.

Michael Ledo Francesca (Olivia Bond/ Kika Magalhaes) is raised on a secluded farm. Her mother (Diana Agostini) was an eye surgeon from Portugal and practices her craft on cows with her daughter apprentice. Mom explains there is an eye disease which cause psychosis. Francesca becomes psychotic, but shows no other symptoms that would pinpoint a specific disease.The production is in black and white and divided into three sections like a play (Mother, Father, Family). This makes it look like Gothic art and critics will swoon all over it, in spite of the films short comings. The plot had holes in it. Certainly Francesca had more contact with the outside world than what we saw. Who paid the light bill? How did she learn to drive? Can a person really survive 11 years chained to a concrete floor in their underwear? Wouldn't they freeze in winter? No, the focus was on Francesca, who we really didn't know as a person, other than she was mentally ill. We pitied her. It was a sad film, but not a tear jerker.Guide: No swearing. Implied sex. Nudity (Kika Magalhes)

Jack Riches This movie is mediocre in the first 45 to 50 minutes. However, something happens after this that really left me with a feeling I can't describe. The Eyes of My Mother is a directorial debut set in black & white and after seeing it I'm excited to see what else the director does. The cinematography is also effective. Especially in some scenes with a shed and some chains.The acting was good from everyone involved seeing as though I hadn't seen anything else these people have done. The lead actress does a good job of showing the true loneliness of her character.The concept of what goes down in the final act is truly haunting and it's pulled off really well. I don't know if I'd like the movie as much if it wasn't in black & white and I'm interested to see if the director is going to make all of his future movies black & white. If so I'm not complaining because it's something that isn't done that much these days.
