Além de marido de Kate Winslet, foi o diretor do ovacionado ”Beleza Americana“(1999), que ganhou status obra-prima ao retratar o ’sonho americano’; bem isso é feito em grande parte dos blockbusters, mas o que se veria depois é que esse efeito ‘cult’ é a assinatura de Sam Mendes.

“Soldado Anônimo“(2005) também não é apenas um filme de guerra, mas um polêmico ... read more

Away We Go was recommended to me by a friend quite awhile ago. I finally got around to watching it recently, heading into it without any expectations, and I came away fairly impressed with it. Starring John Krasinski (as Burt) and Maya Rudolph (as Verona) as young adults in love, Away We Go is a tale about l... read more

Directed by Academy Award winner Sam Mendes (“American Beauty”) from an original screenplay by Dave Eggers and Vendela Vida, this funny and heartfelt film follows the journey of an expectant couple (John Krasinski [“The Office’] and Maya Rudolph [“Saturday Night Live’]), as they travel the U.S. in search of the perfect place to put down roots and raise their family. Along the way, they have misadventures and find fresh connections with an assortment of relatives and old friends who just might help them discover “home” on their own terms for the first time. The movie features the music of Alexi Murdoch.

A Complete Review of Sam Mendes's work (9 movies items)

" Cast : John Krasinski, Maya Rudolph, Carmen Ejogo, Jeff Daniels, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Melanie Lynskey What was it about? A couple expecting their first child travels the U.S. seeking the perfect "family home." They have misadventures and find fresh connections with relatives and old friends who help them discover "home" on their own terms for the first time. My two cents: I’m a huge fan of ‘American Beauty’ and I have been following Sam Mendes ever since. However, I must admit that I "

"First viewing - Jan. 6th If it wasn't for the central couple here I'd probably hate Away We Go. Krasinski and Rudolph have excellent chemistry and come across as believable and really endeared themselves to me over the course of the film. As a parent, I found it amusing to see their journey overall. But I couldn't stand most of the supporting cast, which I guess is the point but at times I found the way the minor characters are written to be frustrating.
