Christmas, Christmas and… New Year's Eve. Just recently We checked which Christmas movies Polish politicians love (Fun fact: that's not all “Kevin Home Alone” and “Glass Trap”)And we must prepare for the New Year and remind others how Animals feel that it is New Year's Eve.
However, it is worth noting that the night between December 31 and January 1 – like Christmas – is eagerly used in films as a background story.
Well, maybe less sweetness in this case, Love sayings and family dramas than under the Christmas tree.
However, there is no shortage A mixture of happiness, fears and high hopes what is the future Do you love New Year's Eve, all glittery glitter and big clock countdowns? Or maybe you'd rather spend that time in front of the TV…watching a movie.
For example, the one in which the action takes place on New Year's Eve. Here are some examples of situations where the characters of the film said goodbye to the old and welcomed the new – for better and for worse.
Hudsucker Proxy
Can a not so bright person have a genius idea? Of course! We see cases like this time and time again in the world of entertainment and show business – and it's no different in beautifully made movies. movie Coen brothers “Hudsucker Proxy” since 1994.
The action of the film begins 1958. Indeed, in his last moments, in the worst moment of Norville Barnes' life (Tim Robbins) – the aforementioned “little genius” who in a sense re-invented… the wheel.
Talking about something “hula hoop” (i.e. hula hoop), but don't treat this movie as a historical chronicle. This is an alternative version of the genesis of the famous toy.
Why is this the worst moment in Norville's life? You have to learn about it from the movie itself. It's really worth it.
four rooms
Four rooms, four challenges and four directors telling the story of a novice bellhop's nightmare on New Year's Eve. What can go wrong? Trust me, everything. Of course, I mean the guy in question, not the movie itself.
Filmmakers are here Alison Anders, Alexander Rockwell, Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez. On the screen we will see people like, among others: Kathy Griffin, Antonio Banderas, Madonna, Bruce Willis, Salma Hayek and Quentin Tarantino himself.
Perfect, as always, as a boy Tim Roth. Interestingly, the film was trashed by critics (only 13% on Rotten Tomatoes), but did quite well with audiences (69%). who is wrong There's only one way to find out.
strange days
A tension-filled society that's like a cauldron of anger, class inequality, racially motivated police violence, and escaping that nonsense with special technology that allows you to “live” other people's lives. No, I am not describing the current state of our reality, but the world presented in the film Kathryn Bigelow the script Jay Cox and… James Cameron. This film is actually a crime noir, very dark and brutal in some places, and takes place in a historical moment – the turn of the century. Instead of a private detective, we have Lenny Nero (Ralph Fiennes), a tape dealer who immortalizes the memories of strangers. When he comes across evidence of a horrific crime, his life is in mortal danger. Because if the truth was revealed, it could set the world on fire.
Snowpiercer: Ark of the Future
Will humanity still celebrate New Year's Eve if the world ends and the remnant of living humans (and every generation yet to be born) must spend their days on a moving train? It depends on which class they took a place – in front of the squad, or maybe in the tail.
“Snow: Ark of the Future”of which he is the director Bong Joon-ho is a post-apocalyptic story based on French Comics by Jacques Lauby and Jean-Marc Rochet.
The story of humanity trapped in a moving train in an icy world (a result of human efforts to stop climate change) is literally also a commentary on social classes and their divisions.

We will see them in the main roles here Tom Hanks and Meg RyanTwo great actors in their own right Prime Minister.
The story itself is actually a reminder that even when we lose everything that is most precious in our lives – maybe there is something waiting for us somewhere. happiness and love. Sometimes it's just around the corner. Sometimes in another city…
The main thing is that he is there. And it is worth entering the new year with this attitude.
