Film Review -- Blue Jasmine

Woody Allen's 2013 entry features Cate Blanchett, Sally Hawkins, Alec Baldwin, Andrew Dice Clay, Bobby Cannavale, Peter Sarsgaard, Louis C.K., and others. Jasmine French (Blanchett) is a former New York socialite who is left penniless after her businessman husband Hal (Baldwin) is imprisoned for fraud. She moves to San Francisco to live with her sister Ginger (Hawkins), and soon realizes how different they really are. Ginger never ascended the lower-middle class conditions they were raised in, and leads a simple life with her kids and mechanic boyfriend Chili (Cannavale). Accustomed to a much more fancy and sophisticated life, Jasmine has a difficult time getting accustomed to her new situation and falls further into a depressive state. This film is, without a doubt, one of the best Allen films that I've see. Although primarily a drama, it also has comical moments, striking an ideal balance. The acting is absolutely fantastic, highlighted by Blanchett's exceptional performance, but also featuring some great supporting performances. Allen's writing and directing is reliably precise. It is difficult to find a fault in this film. It is an absolute pleasure to watch.

Film Review -- Frozen

Disney's new animated film features the voices of Kristen Bell, Idina Menzel, Josh Gad, and Jonathan Groff. Sisters Elsa and Anna (Menzel and Bell, respectively) are princesses of the kingdom of Arendelle, and are very close. Elsa, the eldest, possesses cryokinetic powers (the ability to manipulate cold and ice). While using her powers to play with Anna, Elsa accidentally injures her. Their parents seek a magical troll to heal Anna and, afraid of a worse accident in the future, erase Anna's memories of Elsa's powers. For her safety, Elsa is kept isolated in her room, straining her relationship with her sister, which worsens after their parents die. When Elsa comes of age, she is crowned Queen of Arendelle, but an argument with Anna over the latter's quick engagement to Prince Hans exposes her powers, and she runs away in shame, leaving the kingdom trapped in an endless winter. Anna must set out to find Elsa and convince her to return so she can undo the spell. Along the way, she gets help from an ice merchant (Groff) and a whimsical snowman (Gad). My absolute favorite aspect of Frozen is its message. Without giving too much away, it strays from the tradition of fairy tales and presents a much more beautiful and realistic notion of true love. It's wonderful that many recent animated films have carried a feminist theme. All of the characters, especially the female leads, are charming, but the story itself left a little to be desired. I felt like the plot could have been better developed and even more profound. The songs aren't as catchy as those in Tangled, a Disney entry I thoroughly enjoyed, but are still cute nonetheless. Overall, Frozen is great fun and a welcome addition to Disney's film arsenal.
