Tag / Pablo Larrain

February 20, 2022 by Eternality Tan

Spencer (2021)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2021, Germany, Pablo Larrain, UK
  • 4 Comments

Kristen Stewart gives a top-tier performance of quiet rage as the tormented Princess Diana in this journey down a psychological hellhole that is as formally-crafted a film as you’ll see this year. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Ema (2019)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2019, Chile, Pablo Larrain
  • 1 Comment

Visually and aurally invigorating and mesmerising, yet challenging for viewers to connect with its titular character, Larrain’s latest may be a bold stylistic departure but is arguably his weakest effort in a long while.    

⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3 out of 5.

Tony Manero (2008)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2008, Chile, Pablo Larrain
  • 2 Comments

This strong early effort by Chilean director Pablo Larrain is one of his edgiest character studies on nihilism and pop culture obsession in the context of political oppression.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Neruda (2016)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2016, Argentina, Chile, Pablo Larrain
  • 3 Comments

You can count on Pablo Larrain to imagine an unconventional and layered ‘biopic’ that speaks volumes of cinema’s potential in historicising and poeticising the legacy of a great man. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Jackie (2016)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2016, Pablo Larrain, USA
  • 3 Comments

An unconventional if poignant character study on Jacqueline Kennedy that draws a haunting, lingering effect as if we are witnessing the intimate spectres of fragmented history flow resplendently back to life.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Post Mortem (2010)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2010, Chile, Pablo Larrain
  • 4 Comments

Intentionally shot in drab lighting and colour, Larrain’s follow-up to ‘Tony Manero‘ may be lacking in genuine emotions, but is unsettling and clinical.

⭐⭐⭐⭐

No (2012)

  • Larrain, Pablo
  • 2012, Chile, Pablo Larrain
  • 2 Comments

A dramatization of Chile’s 1988 historical referendum through the eyes of a campaigning ad executive with quite impressive blending of archival footage and period detail. 

⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rating: 3.5 out of 5.
