V for Vendetta (2005)
V for wonderful writing
I must confess I was deeply impressed by this movie. The text is superb and the acting is also first class. Hugo Weaving's voice gives the movie an epic note and Natalie Portman's acting is very reliable. McTeigue's filming is also quite good, not for the exuberance but for the intensity. The rest of the crew is also well known and plays a significant part in the movie. John Hurt, for example, gives the movie a black tonality. His voice and posture helps the viewer to go deeper in the despair spiral. The score music is also a very important because every scene as a sound attached to it. This is, indeed a true new classic.
Não És Homem Não És Nada (1999)
Superb acting and witty writing
One of the most imaginative Portuguese series ever. Everything happens in a small news magazine office in Lisbon. The Boss (the ultra sexy Alexandra Lencastre) lives in permanent tension with one of her subordinates, the chief executive (performed by the actor João Lagarto). They live a love/hate relation and you can always feel some kind of sexual tension between them. Victória (Alexandra Lencastre) is a emancipated woman and José Maria (João Lagarto) is a convict revolutionary, product of the April Portuguese revolution. The other workers are also study-case worthy. Bernardo Mattos (actor Joaquim Monchique) is the archetype of the yes man. He always ready to do something that raises him above all the other company workers. Fabulous text, wonderful acting.
