Wactched Cow by Andrea Arnold on Mubi,
One of the best movies I have seen recently.
Raw by the same director is a must watch as well.
Where can I watch it?Raw by the same director is a must watch as well.
Have you watched Pig (2021)? I got to know about the very competitive (and lucrative) activity of truffle hunting through this movie. It's also among the best movies I've watched last year, and arguably the best performance Nicholas Cage has given.It’s a documentary about grumpy old men and their dogs. But scratch beneath the surface and you find …. truffles.
The Truffle Hunters is highly recommended. It documents an enigmatic underground delicacy that only the uncanny nose of a trained dog can detect.
Sometimes the camera is a fly on the wall catching the quotidian conversations of these frazzled men with their terriers and their labs, at other times it shows you the pov of the dog as it leaps from the truck and scurries through the beautiful North Italian undergrowth to frenetically paw for some lumps of the subterranean fungus.
Some forage for their own table others to sell. The market is lucrative and comes with its own ecosystem of middle men , appraisers , sellers and consumers.
And this unleashes the dark forces that cause dogs to be poisoned with strychnine , suspicion and hostility amongst old acquaintances , turf wars and temptations.
It reminded me of another documentary I watched earlier — Taming The Garden. This one is darker as it documents a vanity project of a billionaire to populate his garden with the most stately of trees from all over his country (Georgia).
So contractors scout, stalk , dig , scaffold , uproot , raise and transfer them one by one.
The telling visual of this movie is when they show a beautiful tree in all its arboreal glory rising above what looks like an ocean. Actually it’s a lake and the tree is being transported on a flatbed shipping container to its new home in the crazy billionaire’s own private forest.

Cage has made quite a few lesser known but brilliant films. Spike Jonz’s Adaptation is one exampleTrue. Subtle and restrained performance from Cage. I often wonder why Hollywood doesn't use Cage well. Loved him in Con Air and Face Off. Also the super dad in Kick Ass.
He is pretty good in Lord of War and Snake Eyes too. Choe Moretz stole the show from him in Kick-Ass!True. Subtle and restrained performance from Cage. I often wonder why Hollywood doesn't use Cage well. Loved him in Con Air and Face Off. Also the super dad in Kick Ass.
Mandy was recommended to me as another one of his lesser known movies. I'm not sure what I thought of the movie and Nic Cage in it. It was... an experience. I wasn't bored, and I was even strangely rooted to my seat too, but I felt a little uncomfortable after watching it. (I'm not the squeamish kind at all!)Cage has made quite a few lesser known but brilliant films. Spike Jonz’s Adaptation is one example
