Rope Film Review By Dima Saqfalhait “Good and evil, right and wrong were invented for the ordinary average man, the inferior man, because he needs them.” In Rope (1948) by Alfred Hitchcock, a murder takes place within the first three minutes of the film.

This is the movie that will, hopefully, define her acting career and give her the recognition she so desperately deserves. Infamous is a modern-day Bonnie & Clyde kind of film with some deeply impactful social and psychological themes. As I just mentioned, this film tackles numerous interesting and provocative themes such… Read More
The Grand Budapest Hotel Film Review By Dima Saqfalhait “There are still faint glimmers of civilization left in this barbaric slaughterhouse that was once known as humanity.” Watching The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014) by Wes Anderson felt exactly like peeking into the doll house I used to play with as a kid.
