Watching Igor Stravinsky & Coco Chanel (Contains Spoilers)

So I watched Igor & Coco yesterday and let me tell you, I’m very conflicted over this movie. Mads plays Igor Stravinsky, the famous Russian composer who has an affair with Coco Chanel, the creator of all the Chanel products. The reason I’m so conflicted with this movie is some of this review will be based solely on my moral judgments (which seem really really really bad but I can’t help it)

With the acting aspect of it all, Mads and Anna (Chanel) was great, I could really tell that they both had so chemistry from the start but I didn’t like the ending It just seemed really boring ( the last scene was basically Chanel going to Igor’s concerts)  I was so angry at Igor because there’s a scene in the movie where Igor’s wife flats out ask him was he cheating on her with Coco and he just looks at her and I’m like what the hell?? you could just told her and just end the relationship (but then I remember that this takes place during the early 1900’s and I’m pretty sure they didn’t do things like that)

Another scene that made me upset is when Coco gave Igor’s wife Katia a black and white suit, Katia didn’t like the black and white room they they had to sleep in, what the hell do you think she would want black and white clothes ?? I think she did that to piss her off really. Out of all this hate I do like one scene when Katia was very sick and didn’t want to stay at Coco’s house anymore but before she left she wrote a letter to Chanel basically saying (I don’t see why you want him in your life when he should be in families life )

Now the things that are in this movie can disputed because I did some research and it was said that Igor was a family man and didn’t cheat on his wife  but hey things could change I would really like to see some more info on it. So in conclusion I didn’t really like this film and this is probably my least favorite Mads movie  

Watching Adam’s Apples (Contains Spoilers)

                             

So I just finished watching Adams Apples and let me tell you it was really good! Mads plays a priest(Ivan) that helps people coming from prison and I feel bad for this character because he went through so much things with him being abused a young child, his wife killing herself and his son having cerebral palsy and then to top it off the skinhead (Adam) tells him that God isn’t on his side and he’s trying to kill him (like damn why tell that to a priest?)  

But then I think about it, had Adam not had said that, then they would have never had known that Ivan had cancer. after that he basically gave up on religion until Adam’s old friends came to get one of the people in the rehab who is from Pakistan, Ivan comes out to stop it and he gets shot! you may think that he’s done for but really he’s a walking miracle, he survives it and is able to return to the church to help other people.

This is a pretty good movie but it has some dark comedy but the ending is positive.
