Lady Gaga and the "White Devil"
Lady Gaga revealed in an interview that her past drug use was due to loneliness. She admitted that at 19-years-old she had mental and emotional problems. “I would go back to my apartment every day and I would just sit there. It was quiet and it was lonely. It was still,” said Gaga. “It was just my piano and myself. I had a television and I would leave it on all the time just to feel like somebody was hanging out with me.” This lead to cocaine use and dependency on the drug. “It was like the drug was my friend. I never did it with other people,” she said. “It’s such a terrible way to fill that void, because it just adds to that void, because it’s not real.” Lady Gaga had an epiphany and realized that the “white devil” was destroying her. She then decided to focus on her music.

This movie will be launched on April 20th. On the side of a busy freeway, a woman finds the love, devotion, commitment, and courage she needs – all wrapped up in a bloodied stray dog who becomes her ‘darling companion.’ When the beloved canine goes missing, a shaggy-dog search adventure plays out, drawing together friends and family and rekindling a lifelong love. It will be especially meaningful to anyone who has been part of a family. In general the cast is really good mainly the acting is perfect-Beth (Diane Keaton) is at her mature best. When Joseph (Kevin Kline) becomes distracted by a phone call during a walk with Freeway, the dog disappears. Furious, is the best part due Beth is emotionally all over the place, inexplicably rueful of Joseph, and has an irrational fixation on Freeway. This movie isn’t about men and women, it’s about believability. Kline comes off as a stand-up guy that simply has little patience for odd behavior.
Although titled Darling Companion this is by no means a “Dog Movie”. Ultimately it is about relationships in a fairly idealistic American family that only some of which are interesting. For those that are not huge fans of love stories especially ones that seem to be on the sad side because those to me are not easy to watch. However, if it was a film based on humor and love and as a viewer you would really enjoy it.
Kelvin Kline believes that “thousands of dogs that don’t get adopted and get put down; that is a shame. There marvelous companions. I have a dog, fish, bird, and children (laughs). I am their primary caretaker.” He noticed that the cast in the film were mainly filled with animal lovers. The movie is basically about love, “short and long term companionships, between humans and animals. Men and women as well as children and adults.” Kline also stated that his character was devoted to his patients. You do not want to miss out on this movie, where love for the animals is most important for human nature.
Love is the triumph of imagination in “Goodbye First Love”

Goodbye First Love, now is available in some American movie theaters since April 20th. An acutely perceptive portrait of a bright young woman in the wake of her first romance. Fifteen-year-old Camille (Lola Créton) is a serious, intensely focused girl who has fallen in love with easy-going Sullivan (Sebastian Urzendowsky), an older boy who reciprocates her feelings, mostly, but wants to be free to explore the world. When he leaves her to travel through South America, she is devastated. But over the next eight years, she develops into a more fully formed woman, with new interests and a new love—and the possibility that she’ll be less defenseless when Sullivan enters her life again. Rendering scenes that showcase her extraordinary ability to evoke moods and feelings, Hansen-Løve takes the story of a girl’s first romance and makes it into a singular experience, familiar in its broad strokes and yet so specific that it feels uniquely personal.
This movie reminds me my first relationship, my first kisses and heartbreaks. Besides, the beauty of the language, the cities, the countryside make this movie magical and realistic so It goes far beyond that, and all the emotional echoes of those moments will last for long after the relationship itself is over. However, all the heightened emotions that come with love. The fear of being rejected and abandoned is very real and must be acknowledged. It is a well structured and meaningful love movie that gives us the freedom to be who we are, loving others for who they are. In few words, when you really love deeply in one direction makes you more loving in all others. Life is full of pure love for all things that makes you capable of doing things that you consider part of your happiness.
“Hit So Hard” is out of the hole in a rockumentary

Hit So Hard follows the rise to fame (and the near-fatal fall from it) of Patty Schemel, drummer for Courtney Love’s seminal rock band, Hole. But just three years later, the drug-related deaths of several musicians, capped by the suicide of Kurt Cobain, closed the books on an all too brief era. In a Hi-8 video camera just before Hole’s infamous Live Through This world tour, Patty captured stunningly intimate footage of the scene that has never been seen… until now. Not just an all-access backstage pass to the music that shaped a generation, Hit So Hard is a harrowing tale of overnight success, the cost of addiction, and ultimately, recovery and redemption.
Although this movie reflects all drummer’s career and struggles with addiction and how many people might be tempted into seeing the film for: namely, Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love. Much of Schemel’s early time with the group is focused more on Cobain than on her, and while it absolutely provides an intriguing look at an icon of music, it feels like something that would have better belonged in it’s own film, perhaps as a companion to this one. Like a minor rockumentary is very well constructed especially when Patty Schemel, the acclaimed drummer for Courtney Love’s seminal rock band Hole, reflecting her own world of sunshine, this is highly recommend for those who enjoy drummers and women musicians, now is available in some American movie theaters since April 20th.
