Four Daughters
Directed by Kaouther Ben Hania

To fill in their absence, the filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania invites professional actresses and invents a unique cinema experience that will lift the veil on Olfa and her daughters' life stories.

She was #BOTD on 6/12/1915 and passed away at 79 on 4/4/1995.

It mixes American buoyancy and joie de vivre with depression and suicide. A lovely, perky girl next door, Priscilla Lane, tries but doesn't succeed in saving a sickly soul.

neutral · AI labelView post →One last take of Priscilla by Eisenstaedt, 1938. That year she would also star with sisters Lola and Rosemary in the popular Four Daughters (1938, also notable as the debut film for a young John Garfield.
neutral · AI labelView post →4. PRIDE & PREJUDICE (1940) - What if Pride and Prejudice was sold as a daffy romantic comedy? It's beautiful but sells Jane Austen's romance as a marriage plot movie. Greer Garson is miscast as Lizzie Bennett, while Laurence Olivier's Darcy is dull. Just watch Four Daughters instead.

Mixed review as it abides by Western obsessions of Islam and Arab women—their bodies, travails, and the social violence they must be expunged from.

Much like her previous film, FOUR DAUGHTERS, it's a searing, painful, and essential work that asks critical questions about how we must begin to confront such immense tragedy. It demands to be seen📽️

Four Daughters is a charming tale featuring a terrific film debut by my boy John Garfield. Love me some Eddie G. in Magic Bullet.
positive · AI labelView post →4 for 4! Wings, the 1st Best Picture winner, is a wonderful silent film. The aerial scenes alone are brilliant. I love Barefoot in the Park. Redford & Fonda are great, as is Mildred Natwick. Four Daughters was John Garfield's 1st film and even though it's a bit soap opera-ish, it's pretty good. ⬇️

positive · AI labelView post →Four Daughters is a sad but tearful documentary that many cinephiles and indie fans will walk out in tears upon seeing the movie. 🥲
positive · AI labelView post →My mother, born in 1927, could recite whole scenes from FOUR DAUGHTERS. I suspect she only saw the film once, in 1938, but John Garfield made such a lasting impression on her that she retained it all vividly 60 and 70 years later. It’s hard to convey what an absolute original he was at the time.
positive · AI labelView post →I love everything on this list (thread) so far except for this movie. I really felt this was overhyped. And it eclipsed far superior flicks from that year, like... FOUR DAUGHTERS. I haven't seen the new Kaurismäki yet, but I'm a huge fan.

It's unconventional, but I love their chemistry. Great music too!

positive · AI labelView post →Four Daughters: I have very mixed feelings about this film. It’s an interesting story about a mother and her daughters. But I was not convinced with the way it was told. It’s a unique way but for me it lessened the emotional impact of the story being told.

positive · AI labelView post →Fusing fact and fiction is a precarious undertaking for a filmmaker, especially when it comes to matters of clarity and credibility. And that’s where this latest offering from writer-director Kaouther Bin Hania misses the mark. This fact-based story about Olfa Hamrouni, a Tunisian single mother who loses her two eldest daughters, Ghofrane and Rahma, to the radical recruitment efforts of ISIL while trying to protect her two youngest daughters, Eya and Tayssir, from befalling a comparable fate…
