The Wanderers: The Quest of The Demon Hunter (2017)

Don't judge this as a horror kind, but a black comedy

[6/10 · 24 March 2021]

Acting is average, maybe except Armand Assante. Lines are OK and last, but not least, there are beautiful areas shown in this movie from Biertan fortified church and its surroundings in Transylvania with wild landscapes and interesting, well preserved architecture villages and also Zalesky Castle represented by the stylish Ghyka Castle belonging to a Romanian aristocrat of late XIX century

1939 (1989)

Rating is not correct

[8/10 · 18 March 2021]

...should be around 7-8. 1939 is now available on Netflix worldwide having an audience 100 times more than in 1989 when was filmed. Quality is outstanding subsequent remastering. The movie is maybe a bit too long, but not boring, great acting, interesting subject, reflecting actually Swedish people life during WWII, that being a neutral country was far better than life of French, Dutch, or Norwegian people. The only reason I don't give more than 8 stars is that finishes too suddenly letting you open to think about how might continue. What I liked especially is that everything happens during action is natural and not as in a soap movie.
