“The hand that rocks the cradle”
The hand that rocks the cradle. United States, 1992 (110 minutes). Directed by Curtis Hanson. Cast: Annabella Sciorra, Rebecca de Mornay, Matt McCoy.
One of the best psychological films among the many and mediocre ones that swarmed the Mecca of cinema in the early 1990s. Despite this certain quality, the film gave much more and only the effectiveness of a very complete screenplay and the work of the actors, especially the then famous Rebecca de Mornay, saved a film from the mediocre that required a more appropriate director.

“Eastern Promises”
Eastern promises. United States, 2007 (100 minutes). Directed by David Cronenberg. Cast: Viggo Mortensen, Naomi Watts, Vincent Cassel.
A driver, a thug, a nurse, an orphan girl and the ins and outs and secrets of the Russian mafia in an almost spooky London are the protagonists of this violent tale that oozes talent on all four pages. The almost always inspired David Cronenberg appropriates the best codes of film noir and teaches a lesson in good storytelling, aided by the superb work of an Oscar-nominated Viggo Mortensen. Essential.

The result is as ambitious as it is scruffy.
