After a pause of no less than six months, I felt like blogging again, and I’m back! And what would be a more perfect occasion than my blogging anniversary?! Since yesterday, October 21st, 2022, The Wonderful World of Cinema is eight years old! How impressive is that?! In two years only, we’ll celebrate its tenth anniversary. Hard […]
I don’t watch so many “recent” films, but as I work in a movie theatre, I try to take advantage of my free admission privilege and see some when I have the occasion to. Au revoir là-haut (See You Up There), a 2017’s French film directed by Albert Dupontel was one of them and it’s […]
Yesterday, one of the women who was considered one of the most beautiful figures of the silver screen would have been 104 years old. She’s not with us anymore, but that’s not a valid excuse not to celebrate her. I’m talking about Hedy Lamarr! It’s my blogging friend Samantha from Musings of a Classic Film […]

I’m here with a new top list! As a matter of fact, I’ll try to add publish one every week if that’s possible. And as you can see, my weekly top lists will be entitled “Top of the World” (because we are at The Wonderful World of Cinema). This week, I’ll let you know what […]
Last year, in 2015 (which was not a long time ago), I made some great film discoveries, but, overall, I might have discovered what would be for me the best French movie of all times: La Grande Illusion. I watched the film thrice in a short time period and even had the chance to see […]
It’s June and it’s almost summer. It’s time to swim, to go to the beach, to drink lemonade but also for us, bloggers, it’s time for the Beach Party Blogathon! This wonderful event is hosted by Speakeasy and Silver Screenings. For the occasion, I’ve decided to explore Roberto Rossellini’s Stromboli. I said to myself that […]
