'Upstream Color' Film Review

'Upstream Color' directed by Shane Carruth invokes all the senses. Your sense of touch, smell, and sight is overloaded with beautiful shots that do not make up a popular film from 2013. Words are not needed to get the story across and Carruth proves that. Some of the most memorable shots of the film are the pebbles hitting the water, Kris coming out from under the bath water, and the shot of the ice twirling in the water

'Fargo' Film Review

Fargo, directed by Joel Coen represents the typical story structure in a standard film. The gruesome and ironic plot keeps you tuned it while the comedic elements keep you smiling. It is evident why Fargo won two Oscar's. The specific character plots are fleshed out and each story within the movie gives the characters goals and meaning. For example, Frances McDormand who plays Margie Gunderson, is pregnant which gives her something to focus on. This way she isn't purely attached with Jerry Lundegaard's plot, she has her own storyline.
