20s Movie Review - We Live in Time

Director: John Crowley
Genre: Romance/ Drama
Runtime: 108 minutes
Year: 2024
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Florence Pugh

Description: After an unusual encounter, a talented chef (Florence Pugh) and a recently divorcée (Andrew Garfield) fall in love and build the home and family they’ve always dreamed of, until a painful truth puts their love story to the test.

Review: We meet Tobias and Almut, who fall in love after an unusual encounter. But their world crashes down when Almut is diagnosed with cancer.

The story has a non-linear narrative, going back and forth between when they first meet to the life after they get the bad news. It’s original, but seems unnecessary. I could easily tell where in time we were, but it could be confusing for some people.

The actors are the highlight of the film. Andrew Garfield and Florence Pugh really elevate this movie with their performances, because the central plot of the film is not very innovative and has been done before. But because of Garfield and Pugh’s chemistry and also their separate performances, the movie is a lot more engaging.

Although the film has a heavy theme, the story never really grabbed me. I’m a very emotional person and even though I was moved by some moments in the film, I never really related or felt connected with the characters on a deeper level. I also felt like some of the scenes felt implausible.

I had expectations, but this movie didn’t live up to them, sadly. I loved Garfield and Pugh, they were great. If it wasn’t for them, I would probably not even watch it. But the film never grabbed me, I didn’t feel the emotional connection, that I did expect to have with a film with this topic. I don’t know why, probably just me.

TV Show Review - Under the Banner of Heaven (Mini Series)

Season: Mini Series
Genre: Crime/ Drama/ Thriller
Number of episodes: 7
Year: 2022
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Sam Worthington, Wyatt Russell, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Denise Gough, Gil Birmingham, Billy Howle     

Description: A devout detective’s (Andrew Garfield_ faith is tested as he investigates a brutal murder seemingly connected to an esteemed Utah family’s spiral into LDS fundamentalism and their distrust in the government.

Review: “Under the Banner of Heaven” tells the true story of the murder of Brenda Lafferty and her young daughter Erica. This horrific event took place against the backdrop of the Mormon faith, and the series shows us how fundamentalists wish to take the world of God especially “literally” when it benefits their own desires. When detective Jeb Pyre investigates the murder and sees how his faith is abused, he begins to doubt the Mormon community and his rock-solid faith in it.

This seven=part miniseries manages to unfold a complex psychological drama at an even pace. Jeb and his partner, Bill Taba, discover bit by bit who is driving the madness. Andrew Garfield convincingly portrays Jeb’s inner struggle. Bill offers some level-headedness and humor to compensate, making him a much-needed sidekick. The dynamic between the two is very interesting, but underlit.

At the beginning of the series, the focus is mostly on the life of the murdered Brenda. She is portrayed as a woman who will not let anyone tell her what she can and cannot do. She is a firm believer, but refuses to simply conform to bossy men and the entrenched patriarchy. Brenda has her own dreams and ambitions and stands by the other women in the Lafferty family. Daisy Edgar-Jones gives Brenda both strength and vulnerability, making her a nuanced and equally sympathetic character.

Then there are the Lafferty brothers. Throughout the series it becomes clear who played what role in the drama that unfolded. Strong is how seemingly good people slowly turn into monsters. Although religion condones their actions, it is a misplaced sense of power that really drives them. In doing so, the series does not condemn strict believers and religion, when it easily could have. It does, however, strongly show how a religious community can hold its hands over people who commit bad acts for the sake of its reputation.

The nuance the series brings to these issues makes you want to keep watching. Jeb is so sympathetic, the viewer can easily imagine the appeal of a solid faith, but also how its faltering can turn your whole life upside down. How Jeb deals with this is enough to hold the attention, and trying to find out what happened to Brenda. Even though the series is a slow burn.

In the end, Under the Banner of Heaven brings everything together nicely. There is a good balance between Jeb's disillusionment and the hopeful twist that is ultimately attached to the tragedy. The viewer is challenged to think about faith and crime and what the connection between them is. Above all, however, it is a deeply human story in which inhumane acts ensure that at times you are really grabbed by the throat.

Movie Review - The Eyes of Tammy Faye

Director: Michael Showalter
Genre: Drama
Runtime: 126 minutes
Year: 2022
Starring: Jessica Chastain, Andrew Garfield, Cherry Jones, Vincent D’Onofrio, Mark Wystrach
 
I WATCHED THIS MOVIE FOR MY 2022 MOVIE CHALLENGE
WEEK 13: A MOVIE WITH AN ACTRESS YOU LOVE
 
    
Description: An intimate look at the extraordinary rise, fall and redemption of televangelist Tammy Faye Baker (Jessica Chastain).

Review: “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” is based on the 2000 documentary of the same name. It’s the type of film you see at least one of every Oscar season: the true story of someone who climbs from a simple status to great success, after which the empire quickly collapses. Once again, the American Dream turns out to be a lot easier to realize than to maintain.
The fact that the broad outlines of this story are not particularly unique does not seem to have escaped the makers’ attention. By opening with news footage, it is immediately clear where this story will end: scandals, lawsuits and damaged reputations. It is actually quite refreshing that this information is not saved by shared immediately, if only because the viewer can then see clearly where exactly things went wrong in the otherwise almost chronological narrative.
Actually, right at the beginning, when the young Tammy Faye falls for the charms of fellow student Jim Baker. He preaches the Christian faith enthusiastically, but is a little too eager to let slip that living according to God’s law is perfectly compatible with living in luxury. It is typical of Jim’s talent for trying to put things right. A car that clearly does not fit the modest financial status situation of the young couple is not an unwise purchase, but simple a gift from God.
Tammy Faye and Jim soon fall madly in love and get right into the marriage business so they can consummate their marriage. The consequence is that they both have to drop out of college, because the university has a rule prohibiting students from marrying each other. It draw the boundless naiveté of the young couple, for whom religion may not be the best possible guide.
Their enthusiasm for their religion proves to be contagious and so the couple soon finds its way to television, where they can express their love of God in all his glory to an audience of millions, including songs and puppets shows for young viewers. This turns out to make a remarkably good living, as donations from the viewers are accepted as proof of their faith.
Thus, over the years, Tammy Faye’s outfits become more extravagant and the makeup more lavish. So much so that a makeup artist for a television interview would like to remove everything on her and apply something less ostentatious. But alas: the face appears to contain the necessary permanent make-up and he enormous eyelashes may bot be touched, because they are Tammy Faye’s trademark.  
At such time it becomes clear that she is first and foremost a television star and only then an evangelist. And can the television work of Tammy Faye and Jim actually be described as an expression of religion or is it just pure entertainment? The fact that at a certain point the couple opens a Christian theme park gives a nice indication in which corner we may look for it.
But all the makeup ultimately appears to conceal a woman who seems to have purely good intentions. Already at a young age Tammy Faye realizes that she is a lot more theatrical than most people, but pleasantly enough she is a lot more sincere in her beliefs than you would expect based on that.
Where Jerry Falwell openly uses his preaching on television to proclaim his arch-conservative agenda and Jim is only too happy to talk down such figures, Tammy Faye turns out to be remarkably faithful to her progressive views of the faith. This manifests itself in a great sense of charity even leading her to talk to AIDS patients on her television program.
The question is how this can be reconciled with her exorbitant lifestyle, which is paid for entirely by the voluntary donations of her viewers. Unfortunately, the film doesn’t really have an answer for that. Whereas Jim Baker shows himself soon enough to be a hypocrytical figure who values his status over what he preaches, Tammy Faye remains a bit too much of an enigma, especially when it comes to morality.
Quite striking, since “The Eyes of Tammy Faye” is set up as the great Jessica Chastain show. In the title role, the actress pulls out all the stops and consistently manages to impress with acting that is naturally grand and theatrical, but also fragile. Andrew Garfield offer fine counterplay as Jim Baker.
“The Eyes of Tammy Faye” is exactly the Oscar season film you can expect from it: the smoothly told story of the rise and fall of a striking person, which act as a showcase for the lead actress. Chastain deservedly won an Oscar for this performance.

Rating: 3/ 5

10s Movie Review - Never Let Me Go

Director: Mark Romanek
Genre: Drama/ Romance/ Science Fiction
Runtime: 103 minutes
Year: 2010
Starring: Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield, Keira Knightley, Charlie Rowe, Charlotte Rampling, Sally Hawkins, Domhnall Gleeson, Andrea Riseborough, Isobel-Meikl Small, Ella Purnell

Description: The lives of three friends (Carey Mulligan, Andrew Garfield, Keira Knightley), from their early school days into young adulthood, when the reality of the worlds they live in comes knocking. 

 
Review: “Never Let Me Go” is the film adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro’s bestseller of the same name. Director Mark Romanek managed to surround himself with purely great talent. I believe that “Never Let Me Go” is a fantastic film, that probably not many people have seen.
Kathy, Tommy and Ruth spend their youth in Hailsham, a seemingly idyllic boarding school in the English countryside. Unlike their peers, however, their lives are already mapped out for them. No one seems intent on telling them, but more and more things point to a predestined fate awaiting them. When they leave the protected environment of school behind, they are confronted not only with deep feelings of love, jealousy and betrayal, but also with their inevitable fate.
The three leads, Carey Mulligan, Keira Knightley and Andrew Garfield, all play phenomenally. Mulligan, who has the central role, proves once again to be one of the greatest British acting talents. Knightley and Garfield support her perfectly and they form a great trio. The young Kathy, Tommy and Ruth are portrayed almost as impressively as their older counterparts. And also strong supporting roles by Charlotte Rampling and especially Sally Hawkins.  
Screenwriter Alex Garland chose to familiarize the viewer, who is not familiar with the book, with the fate of the children in the same gradual ways as they do during their childhood. It makes the harrowing story even more realistic and poignant. Not only is the narration calm and thorough, actually all facets of the film are made with care and passion.  
The only issue I have with the story is why more people resist the system or flee their fate? Or show their open opinion and disagree with the system, like Sally Hawkins’ character Miss Lucy. But that’s quickly forgiven, because this is such a beautiful film. The cinematography is wonderful. The use of color serves not only to create the atmosphere of alienation and timelessness, but also to distinguish the different chapters within the story. Most impressive, however, are the various shots that are so beautiful that you would want to frame them.
In addition to the cinematography, the atmospheric and emotionally charged soundtrack is also a true beauty. It comes from the hand of Rachel Portman who, seems somewhat unknown, but appears to have an impressive resume (including “The Cider House Rules” and “Chocolat”).
I read the book a long time ago, remembering I wasn’t that big of a fan. But the film is gorgeous and I would recommend it to many people.

10s Movie Review - Breathe

Director: Andy Serkis
Genre: Drama
Runtime: 118 minutes
Year: 2017
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Claire Foy, Tom Hollander, Hugh Bonneville

Description: The true story of Robin (Andrew Garfield) and Diana Cavendish (Claire Foy), an adventurous couple who refuse to give up in the face of a devastating disease.

Review: “Breathe” is about British Robin and Diana Cavendish, who fell in love in the 1950s, got married and built a new life in Kenya. Robin worked as a tea importer and they were looking at a bright future together. Especially when Diana became pregnant. But then fate struck. Robin gets polio and becomes paralyzed from the neck down. Robin has no will to live at all, now he sees he can’t do anything anymore. But due to Diana’s determination, Robin keeps fighting.
Diana never gives up on Robin and, against doctor’s advice, makes sure that Robin can return to England. Diana decides to take care of Robin herself, in their new home. And thanks to a befriended professor, Robin can improve the quality of his life with a designed wheelchair with a built-in respirator.
It’s an inspiring story and I love the couple. Of course, it’s all a bit romanticized and there aren’t many big surprises. The story is told with great respect and a lot of humor as well. Andrew Garfield and Claire Foy work well, together and apart.
Even though the theme of the film is rather depressing, the movie is mostly cheerful. And although “Breathe” is not a ground-breaking film, it’s still worth watching: because of the great cast and because it’s an inspiring story.

Rating: 3,5/ 5

Movie Review - Tick, Tick... Boom!

Director: Lin-Manuel Miranda
Genre: Drama/ Musical
Runtime: 115 minutes
Year: 2021
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Alexandra Shipp, Robin de Jesus, Vanessa Hudgens, Joshua Henry, Jonathan Marc Sherman, Bradley Whitford, Judith Light

Description: On the cusp of his 30^th birthday, a promising young theater composer (Andrew Garfield) navigates love, friendship and pressure of life as an artist in New York City.

Review: Death-defying, HIV and dashed childhood dreams. Netflix is taking a gamble with a multi-million dollar investment in “Tick, Tick… Boom!”, a musical film that doesn’t shy away from taboo and heavy subjects. Experts are excited, as was I, but is the general public ready for a musical that plays with the classic expectations of the genre?
On the eve of his thirtieth birthday in 1990, Jonathan Larson is forced to make some existential decisions. From a dreary Manhattan apartment, he has been working for eight years on a musical, a production that should provide his long-awaited breakthrough. However, the great success never came and  in the meantime more and more artist friends exchanged their artistic plans for a job with more security. Larson, who for years believed he would turn American theater culture around, is doubting his talent for the first time.
The tumultuous days leading up to Larson’s thirtieth birthday form the basis for “Tick, Tick… Boom!”, a film adaptation of the autobiographical solo performance with which the composer toured several small venues in 1990. At the premiere of his relatively obscure production, Larson cannot possibly guess that a Hollywood studio will ever pump millions into his work. For the man does become a legend on the American theater scene, only he never experiences it himself.
Jonathan Larson might not be a familiar name for most of you, be he was the mastermind behind the successful musical “Rent”. On the morning of the first preview of this musical in 1996, Larson dies unexpectedly of an aneurysm. Barely 35, he missed how “Rent”, a show that ran for twelve years on Broadway, became one of the most popular musicals of all time.
Larson’s way of ushering Broadway into the 21^st century is also inspiring a new generation of theater composers. Lin-Manuel Miranda, the noted musical writer who is making his debut as a director here, sees his inspiration’s solo performance live during his senior year of college. As a young New Yorker with an artistic innovation drive and a hefty dose of agony, he recognizes himself in the existential issues Larson faces. He became even more ambitious and drew creative inspiration from Larson. Miranda’s successful “Hamilton” is the proof of that.
Though Larson was no saint, he was convinced he was right, he didn’t give an inch. Larson’s stubborn character is highlighted. New scenes came to light after conversations with personal friends. For example, his existential fears make him so self-centered that he refuses to make time for his tormented partner, and he has difficulty empathizing with the point of view of others. This causes conflicts that are often painful to watch. The fact that “Tick, Tick… Boom!” still manages to arouse sufficient sympathy for Larson is largely due to lead actor Andrew Garfield. The man previously garnered praise for his portrayals in films like “Hacksaw Ridge”, “Silent” and “The Social Network”, but retrained himself as a musical actor for the occasion. In his performance, he finds balance between the youthful naiveté of someone who believes he will awaken his contemporaries and the bitterness of an adult who discovers that idealism also has economic repercussions. This is hands down my favorite Garfield performance ever.
In addition, director Miranda gives him and the rest of his ensemble plenty of room to bring credibility to the musical scenes as well. “Tick, Tick… Boom!” uses Larson’s music as a component that is equal to the dialogue. By the end of the film, there is renewed hope that the American movie musical is not dead yet.

Rating: 5/ 5

00s Movie Review - Red Riding: the Year of Our Lord 1974

Director: Julian Jarrold
Genre: Thriller/ Drama/ Crime
Runtime: 102 minutes
Year: 2009
Starring: Andrew Garfield, David Morrissey, Sean Bean, Rebecca Hall, Eddie Marsan, Michelle Dockery

Description: A rookie Yorkshire journalist (Andrew Garfield) sets out to solve the case of a child murderer.

Review: “Red Riding” is a film trilogy based on a series of books by British author David Peace. At three-year intervals the books paint a picture of a thoroughly corrupt police force in West Yorkshire, in the north of England, during the 1970s and 1980s. Although partly based on fact, the whole concerns a fictional representation of how Peace himself remembers his childhood in Yorkshire. The trilogy was made for British television, which aired for the first time in 2009. The first part is set in 1974.
Eddie Dunford is a young crime reporter for the Yorkshire Post who yearns for a big break. He starts working on a case of a number of missing young girls. The deeper he digs, the more Dunford becomes convinced that the police are withholding information and that the real estate tycoon John Dawson is involved in the disappearance – and most likely murder – of these girls. Dunford takes care of the mother of one of the missing children, but she too knows more than she admits and slowly but surely the young journalist becomes entangled in a web of betrayal and plots, from which he sees no way out.
The plot reads like an intriguing crime thriller and that is how the film can be adequately described. With the understanding that the resolution of the disappearances is not addressed. The purpose of the film is more to give an impression of the miserable life in the village north of England. We get images of Yorkshire that is visually stripped of color. The dark style of the film is consistently carried through in the cinematography, therefore the film is really attractive.
It’s quite the slow burn, but this adds to the atmosphere of the film. And you’re invested enough to want to see the other two parts in the series.

Rating: 3,5 / 5

10s Movie Review - Hacksaw Ridge

Director: Mel Gibson
Genre: Drama
Runtime: 138 minutes
Year: 2016
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Teresa Palmer, Vince Vaughn, Hugo Weaving, Sam Worthington, Rachel Griffiths, Luke Bracey

Description: World War II American Army Medic Desmond T. Doss (Andrew Garfield), who served during the Battle of Okinawa, refuses to kill people, and becomes the first man in American history to receive the Medal of Honor without firing a shot.

Review: Mel Gibson didn’t really grew in popularity, due to his anti-Semitic outbursts and alcoholism. Ten years after his directorial debut, Gibson sits in the director’s chair again for this war film about a true American hero. His impressive comeback “Hacksaw Ridge” tells the story of Desmond Doss, who managed to save 75 fellow soldiers during the battle of Okinawa, by dragging them away from the fire line.
Desmond Doss didn’t want to carry a gun, due to his religion, let alone fire one. So at all times, he was unarmed. At first, the other soldiers and his superiors think he is crazy and want him gone. Because he will not protect his fellow soldiers. And Doss becomes the mark of jokes and they try to get him to leave. But Doss stays and eventually gets permission to join without a gun and become a medic.
Whenever the soldiers step foot on Hacksaw Ridge, the film becomes more brutal and unnuanced. But the images are filmed so well and it looks very realistic, but it’s not for the faint of heart.
Even though there is a lot of war violence going on, Gibson never forgets to focus on his main character. And that’s all because of Andrew Garfield, whose performance is so strong and believable. Vince Vaughn can easily make you forget about his silly comedies and is also very solid in his performance. But the best supporting role is for Hugo Weaving, who plays Desmond’s father.
The film does follow some standards, as we know them from other war movies. It has clichés and it knows when to make certain decisions at the right moment in the film. And sometimes it gets a little too sentimental.
A great comeback by director Mel Gibson and a fantastic performance by Andrew Garfield.

Rating: 4/ 5

Movie Reviews - Under the Silver Lake

Director: David Robert Mitchell
Genre: Drama/ Comedy/ Crime
Runtime: 139 minutes
Year: 2018
Starring: Andrew Garfield, Riley Keough, Topher Grace, Jimmi Simpson,Zosie mamet, Callie Hernandez, Riki Linhome, Summer Bishil, Grace van Patten, Patricj Fishler, Luke Baines, Laura-Leigh Claire

Description: Sam (Andrew Garfield), intelligent but without purpose, finds a mysterious woman swimming in his apartment's pool one night. The next morning, she disappears. Sam sets off across LA to find her, and along the way he uncovers a conspiracy far more bizarre.

Review: After the atmospheric horror film “It Follows”, director David Robert Mitchell does something unexpected with “Under the Silver Lake”. He creates an ambitious art house film with a hint of neo-noir. It’s a sensational and hypnotizing ride, but only if you like cryptical and creative adventures that lead to nothing. It’s absurd, weird and artistic. Not for everyone.
Sam is a nobody. He smokes weed in a grim apartment in Los Angeles, filled with vinyl records and Hitchcock posters. Watching his gorgeous neighbor, entertained by his fuckbuddy and weird encounters with dead animals. The film has a strange tone from the start, it’s all over the place. You have no clue what Sam is up to, but his neurotic tics and strange happenings are enough to keep you interested.
After the introduction, Sam goes on a neo-noir adventure when his pretty neighbor goes missing. His paranoid brain looks for patterns and conspiracies. Secret codes, hobos, fallen movie stars, hidden messages in music, corrupt elites and dog killers. When you read this random list of words, you know it’s a strange film. But it’s the good kind of strange.
It’s understandable that “Under the Silver Lake” got mixed response during the Cannes film festival. This is one of those typical films that has a small, specific audience. And I think only a few people will appreciate it. I am one of those people.
I really loved seeing Andrew Garfield as Sam. A different film and role for him, but he did a great job. “Under the Silver Lake” felt like a mix of “Mulholland Drive” and “The Big Lebowski”. If you like both movies, you will like this one too. If you don’t like one or both film, you won’t like this either.
“Under the Silver Lake” is definitely not a film for everyone. And many people won’t see the brilliance of this film.

Rating: 4,5/ 5

Top 5 Thursday: Celebrity Couples

Celebrity couples hardly ever last, with off course you occasional exception. But that doesn’t mean we can’t love them and hope for their relationship to stay. I have my fair share of favourites in Hollywood, here is my top five of most beloved celebrity couples (both have to be celebrities).

5. Ellen Degeneres and Portia de Rossi

I always love it how Ellen talks about Portia on her show. This is such a great couple.

 

 

4. Rita Wilson and Tom Hanks

This is one of those rare exceptions. This couple has been married since 1988! And every time I see them on TV or on pictures, they still look so happy.

 

 

3. Emma Stone and Andrew Garfield

They have great chemistry on screen, but are also adorable together in real life. If I were gay, I wish I were Andrew Garfield.

 

 

2. Emily Blunt and John Krasinski

This is how my marriage would be, they are amazing together. They aren’t very public about it, which I like. And they have an adorable baby girl names Hazel.

 

 

1. Anna Faris and Chris Pratt

They rule. I think both actors are hilarious and they are an awesome couple. They were made for each other, because they both have a great sense of humour and quirkiness. And they have a cute son Jack.

 

 

They Almost Made the Top 5: Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher, Charlize Theron and Sean Penn, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake, Olivia Wilde and Jason Sudeikis, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, Rachel Weisz and Daniel Craig, Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling

100 Movie Challenge 2015 - # 1: The Amazing Spider-Man 2

Director: Marc Webb

Genre: Action/ Adventure/ Fantasy

Runtime: 142 minutes

Year: 2014

Starring: Andrew Garfield, Emma Stone, Jamie Foxx, Dane DeHaan, Campbell Scott, Colm Feore, Embeth Davidtz, Sally Field, Paul Giamatti, Denis Leary, Felicity Jones

Description: When New York is put under siege by Oscorp, it is up to Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield) to save the city he swore to protect as well as his loved ones.

Review: After Spider-Man took on The Lizard in “The Amazing Spider-Man”, he has become a hero and peace has come to New York. Off course not for long. The powerful Oscorp has a lot of secrets. When boss Norman Osborn dies, he hands it over to his son Harry. When in the meantime Oscorp employee Max Dillon gets into an accident, he loses his humanity and mental health. Spider-Man has no time to sit back and relax.

This pretty much sums up the story of “The Amazing Spider-Man 2”. In the two and a half hour runtime it’s mostly rough love scenes and action sequences full off special effects. The quality of the CGI is variable. It’s strange that they choose Electro as the main villain and not Spider-Man’s number one rival Norman Osborn. Electro doesn’t really contribute much. And not even to mention Rhino, whom I found ridiculous and he was only it for a few minutes.

It’s very obvious the actors enjoyed working on this project, which makes it a joy for the viewers too. But because the earlier series, with Tobey Maguire as Spider-Man, isn’t that long ago, it makes this newer series repetitive.

It’s the little details though that make “The Amazing Spider-Man 2” interesting. The secrets of Peter’s parents are revealed. It gives the man behind Spider-Man a history. And the film has some great action scenes. It also has catchy humor, human superheroes an very bad guys.

“The Amazing Spider-Man 2” never goes above average, though it’s entertainment level is pretty high. The movie is a bit too long, because it misses pace. Not Marvel’s best.

Rating: 2/ 5

Pic Spam: Andrew Garfield

I haven't seen many of Andrew Garfields movies, but he is very cute. And in "The Social Network" he showed us that he's a good actor. And he's with Emma Stone, come on!! Here are some of his best pictures.
