Cuties (Mignonnes)
September 9, 2021 by
Francois Truffaut famously stated: “There is no such thing as an anti-war film.” In essence, what he was getting at is that any subject, when filmed and put on screen for viewers, inherently becomes glamorized and entertaining, and the filmmaker is therefore unavoidably subverted into creating entertainment out of the very thing which they set […]
