Featured review
a film of Ridley Scott. impressive because it is one of his films. touching because it could be an embroidery of memories about growing up and adventures on sea and Dead Poets Society or, maybe, the flavor of Moby Dick. more important - the powerful images, the puzzle of lives of young man, Jeff Bridges who does an impeccable job, the discover of yourself, the force and fragility and not comfortable decisions and the ocean as the lead character. the axis - maybe the nostalgia of viewer. because it is the story of public. dreams and memories and desires. Riddley Scott gives not only a great story about life and responsibilities giving sense and transforming, but propose a story from yourself. this does White Squall special.
