CHILDREN OF MEN (2006) is Director Alfonso Cuarón’s gloomy sci-fi masterpiece set 18 years after all women have suddenly and inexplicably become infertile. Whilst the rest of the planet is shaken by the death of the youngest person on Earth, Theo (Clive Owen) finds himself reluctantly drawn into escorting Kee (Claire-Hope Ashitey) who might be carrying humanity’s last flicker of hope through an England divided by a refugee crisis and an austere authoritarian government. Gripping and grim in equal measure, Cuarón and cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki conjure up a rich and textured world as a backdrop to a plot ripe with biblical allegory and commentary about our relationship to communities in crisis. Never less than captivating from the first frame until the bleak and barely optimistic ending and featuring several virtuoso sequences of incredible action film making, the verisimilitude of the world-building and its authenticity makes this one of my favourite movies of the noughties. As Cris puts it, if you haven’t seen it this you should rectify that immediately and if you have, you need to watch it again.

Y además en El Gordo y La Flaca: Alfonso Cuarón, Guillermo del Toro y Alejandro González Iñárritu están nominados y compiten por un Óscar este domingo. Aquí te contamos la historia de 'los tres amigos': cineastas mexicanos que están conquistando la meca del cine.

El pupilo de Oscar de la Hoya por fin enfrentará a Gervonta Davis en una pelea que promete grandes emociones.

Al parecer Don Omar y Anuel dejaron atrás las peleas y se dejan ver como los mejores amigos.

A film that follows the traumatic life of a maid for one year in the 70s. Kyle finds the journey enthralling. Dave thinks Cuarón goes a bit too far. The Machine is in love with the 65mm photography. Jordan Drake joins the discussion to complain about streaming services.

Mau Tinoco y yo hablamos y analizamos "Cuento de Verano" de Èric Rohmer y de "Y tu mamá también" de Alfonso Cuarón. En ambas películas encontramos varias coincidencias que no habíamos planeado. 

In the season finale of Season 5 (Dystopia Myopia) Kyle is joined by a panel of guests, script supervisor Katy Baldwin, fellow podcaster Ben Thelen, and cinematographer Josh Carter, to discuss Alfonso Cuarón's ode to the everlasting light of hope in humanity in the melancholic but heartening nativity story of Children of Men.

This week Zach and Sloane unwrap 1995's World War I orphan  drama fest: A Little Princess. Honestly what is there to say except for "SARAAAAAAAAA!" Expect a lot of tears, a lot of orphan talk, and if you're lucky, you may even catch a vibe this episode. If you give it a listen that description will make a lot more sense.

In our first episode of the Water chapter we discuss one of the best road movies ever made and an essential of the Mexican New Wave: Y tu mamá también by Alfonso Cuarón. After we talk you through some of its historical context, join us in a conversation that ranges everywhere from the symbolic nature of water and Cuarón's careful directorial touch to...sex and the ever-changing nature of relationships.   

Children of Men is a 2006 science fiction action-thriller film[4][5][6][7] co-written and directed by Alfonso Cuarón. The screenplay, based on P. D. James' 1992 novel The Children of Men, was credited to five writers, with Clive Owen making uncredited contributions. The film takes place in 2027, when two decades of human infertility have left society on the brink of collapse. Asylum seekers seek sanctuary in the United Kingdom, where they are subjected to detention and refoulement by the government. Owen plays civil servant Theo Faron, who must help refugee Kee (Clare-Hope Ashitey) escape the chaos. Children of Men also stars Julianne Moore, Michael Caine, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Pam Ferris, and Charlie Hunnam.

The “Cinephile Cuties” are ready to drive across Mexico. That’s because they’re chatting about Alfonso Cuarón’s ‘Y Tu Mamá También.’ In this episode, Patrick and Casey discuss their favorite road trip movies. Plus, the boys put this film through their proprietary Fartsy Test. And Patrick recommends a drink pairing.

Harry Potter-universet er altid et besøg værd med magi, kostskolemiljø, venskaber og ikke mindst kampen mod det onde.

Harry Potter og fangen fra Azkaban (2004) er instrueret af den mexikanske instruktør Alfonso Cuarón efter en roman af den britiske forfatter J. K. Rowling. Det er den tredje Harry Potter film i en filmserie på i alt 8 film.

På troldmandskolen Hogwarts har straffefangen Sirius Blacks flugt fra fængslet Azkaban ført til at dementorer bevogter skolen. Allerede i toget bliver Harry Potter overfaldet af et af disse væsner. Senere er de ved at suge sjælen ud af Sirius Black, der viser sig at være Harry Potters gudfader og ikke den forræder alle troede han var. For at redde Sirius må Harry Potter og Hermione bruge en tidsvender med hvilken de kan rejse tilbage i tiden.

Lyt med til en samtale i Det Gule Værelse, hvor dine værter Thomas og Morten tager en snak om venskab, tidsrejser og magisk slik.

Table ronde : Roma (Alfonso Cuarón)

Er det os der er helt galt på den? I FilmHulen denne måned har vi set den anmelder roste, Oscar nomineret (hele 10 gange!!) Mexicanske sort/hvid Netflix film "Roma". Vi stille os utrolig uforstående og forvirrede over hvorfor folk ser denne film som værende et mesterværk. Med en kedelig historie, ligegyldige karakterer, og utrolig langsomt tempo, sidder vi begge to tilbage med fortrydelse af at de har brugt lidt over to timer på at se denne "perle". Vi sætter pris på, at Alfonso Cuarón har en vision, og at han ikke går på kompromis med NOGET som helst, denne film er på alle måder HANS film. Den er i hvertfald ikke vores film. I samme omgang, ønsker vi gerne, at høre hvad det er præcis folk ser i denne film. Er der noget vi har overset?

Til sidst vurderer vi om filmen skal på loftet og trække støv som "VHS-Bånd på Loftet", "Bare-Stream-Den", "Køb den på Blu-Ray" eller i den famøse "Hall of Fame"!

We’re on a trip to space with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in this month’s Film Board review of Cuarón & Son’s astro-tacular, Gravity. Join Steve Sarmento, Tommy Metz III, Andy Nelson, and Pete Wright as we pull apart a film miraculously greater than the sum of its pretty good parts. We pull apart the film, the performance(s), the writing, but most of all (spoiler) we lavish unheard of praise on Emmanuel Lubezki and the stunning digital filmmaking pouring from his hands. It’s a great conversation with some interesting twists, a whole lot of love, and just a bit of shame. Tune in!
