Yeah, the child exploits her cute persona on commercials and singing career, but I wasn't referring to that at all: what she did in that drama Mother (the only one I dug all the way through) was memorable. She co-starred it at age 5 or 6, and delivered such powerful acting that I still come back to those scenes to understand how come this kid was able not only to understand the ins and outs of her character, but also to build up the drama, to change the mood when it was necessary... I don't know, I was surprised with the maturity she showed, and so did Del Toro.

Hmm well, I dunno, I guess she fit the role she had in Pacific Rim pretty well; though this aint a movie you watch for performances. You watch it for giant robots beating the fuck out of giant lizards :-p Oh and Rinko Kikuchi in skintight latex suits.
Carlx, check out Sono Sion's work just before his latest, The Land of Hope and you will see a completely different, gentle (perhaps a bit melodramatic) side to his work that I hope he explores more. For a guy that brings out 3 movies a year on average, the constant level of quality is outstanding. The fact that his work just before Land of Hope, Himizu kinda sorta deals with the same kind of setting but in a much (MUCH) darker light makes it all the more intriguing. Both films are equally poweful but in different way. I don't think I've found a (modern) director from Japan that is quite as varied and gets away with so many artistic decisions (just look at most of his films running times for example) that he does.

While I know there's a lot of people on here that are irked by Wes Anderson's movies... this looks pretty damn funny/amazing. I love the choice of shooting it in 4:3 too, will be keeping my radar out for this one.

Just saw trailer for Lars Von Trier's Nymphomaniac. Be afraid, this looks fucked. Can't wait though.

The character poster for that movie with Charlotte Gainsbourg makes me feel all post-pubescent.
