Welcome



I have a confession. I love films. I can't remember a time when films were not a part of my life and it's getting worse.

Some might say I'm a geek but I'm sure there are others like me, lurking in the shadows, coveting the latest box-set like the one ring to rule them all. We are a secretive breed, perfectly ordinary looking (most of the time), keeping their love of film under wraps. Ask the next person you see about their latest trip to the cinema and you will spot us; we are the ones whose eyes shine in a slightly manic way as we start to speak excitedly about plot and lighting.

Well, I know that there are loads of film blogs out there but I thought it was time to confess and embrace my film nerd status by commenting on and reviewing films, from the latest releases to classic favourites, and delving into the world of film through favourite scenes, fanboy facts and even some more technical and analysis posts for the real film nerd out there. I hope that you will enjoy; please join the debate and before you know it you will embrace your inner (or outer) film nerd too. Go on, you know you want to.

That's why when I watched Gone Girl I walked through the door with preconceptions from the novel. If you like reading then you probably didn't miss the uproar surrounding the book  Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn. Prior to the movie announcement I had already read it (a fantastic page turner) and when I heard the movie was in production my anticipation was huge. I knew that if it was executed to reflect the quality of the source material it was going to be a gripping. Then David Fincher was set to direct and I just couldn't wait. My watching relationship with Fincher is complex at best because although he is an artistic director who deserves auteur status, his portrayal of female characters

Oscars 2015 - Nominees Announced

It's been a while but I'm back just in time for Oscar season! So, the nominees have been announced and it's all about the countdown to the ceremony on Sunday February 22nd. There have been a few surprises, like Jake Gyllenhall's missing from the nominations for his totally engrossing and terrifying performance in Nightcrawler. I am really happy to see Rosamund Pike's performance didn't go unnoticed in Gone Girl, though, she is mesmerizing and truly deserves the nod. Now it's all been announced, here at Silver-Celluloid we thought you might like to see a full review of each film that has been nominated. Over the next few weeks we are going to do just that.
