You get an Oscar? ^^
Cause tomorrow is a brand-new day
And tomorrow you'll be on your way
Don't give a damn about what other people say
Because tomorrow is a brand-new day
Yes I am in fact Jamie Lee Curtis

I'm just amazed that this piece of ### has been making movies for thirty years. The same with Woody Allen or Roman Polanski (and others I don't know, no doubt). In our daily lives, if we can not work with an individual who we know is a racist, who beats his wife, or who has had sexual relations with his stepdaughter or with a minor, we do not do it. And if we can not consume the products of a businessman who we know is a son of a ###, we don't do it either. I seriously don't understand how anyone (actors, writers, producers...) can decide to work with this kind of people and how anyone can enjoy the product that someone offers them knowing that said person is a piece of ###, when it is really easy it is for most to simply ignore it and consume other products.Besson's second wife was actress and director Maïwenn Le Besco, whom he started dating when he was 32 and she was 15.[25] They married in late 1992 when Le Besco, 16, was pregnant with their daughter Shanna, who was born on 3 January 1993.[26] Le Besco later claimed that their relationship inspired Besson's film Léon (1994), where the plot involved the emotional relationship between an adult man and a 12-year-old girl.[25] Their marriage ended in 1997, when Besson became involved with actress Milla Jovovich during the filming of The Fifth Element (1997).
A film critic may be forced to go out of his way to separate a person's private life and their artistic production, but not us. A film critic may be forced to make the effort of that separation, of abstracting and focusing on the technical details, the cinematography, the quality of the production... We don't have to make that effort, and it is easy as ### not consuming their products.
Do I appreciate the quality of any of the films they have made? Yeah. I would see them again or see something new related to them? impossible. It would make me gag.

Btw, his new movie: DogMan: Metascore Generally Unfavorable Based on 11 Critic Reviews. 37/100
Yesterday I finished watching Masters of the Air, a continuation (supposedly) of Band of Brothers and The Pacific. Really cool to see hundreds of bombers flying in formation, excellent cinematography. That said, I found the series terrible, I was not at all interested in the life or destiny of any of its protagonists, I literally didn't give a ### about any death, the narrative lacks a coherent rhythm, the last episode ridiculously tries to be great. Oh how good the Yankees were.
The main actor is the guy who played Elvis and the bad guy in Dune. You know who, I'm not even going to bother looking up his name. Always excellent haircut. Zero charisma.
They have made a remake of Speak No Evil. Because there are no scriptwriters in Hollywood and it is very difficult to watch a Dutch (Danish?) film released only a year ago. James McAvoy, why?

I agree, James' an excellent actor, but he's stellar when playing insane people
