“Royal Casino”
22.05, 1
UK-USA, 2006 (144 minutes). Director: Martin Campbell. Actors Daniel Craig, Eva Green, Mads Mikkelsen.
Agent 007 took on the face of Daniel Craig for the first time. And the truth is that the actor gave dignity to the character and managed to reveal some of his dark sides, which was supported by some of the most powerful dialogues. Casino Royale doesn't shy away from the series' codes, but makes them sound a little fresher. All of this adorned with sequences as intense as the extensive poker game scene, enhanced by the wonderful Danish actor Mads Mikkelsen. This was the beginning, but the series would grow even further with Quantum of Solace and especially Skyfall with Sam Mendes behind the camera.
'Open your eyes'
22.05, The 2nd
Spain, 1997 (113 minutes). Director: Alejandro Amenabar. Artists: Eduardo Noriega, Penélope Cruz, Najwa Nimry.
Far from repeating the plans of Tesis, his triumphant debut, Alejandro Amenábar took a risk with his second film, which played with less commercial elements. “Open Your Eyes” moves through an obsessive mosaic of illusion and illusion to play with the intertwining of dream and reality. And although the web of plots that Amenábar weaves together suffers from a certain confusion at times, the director's oppressive staging and the expressive power of his camera are nevertheless an electrifying visual exercise.
