NEW* Already Dreaming Film Production Initiative

COMING SOON.

Films have been a big passion to me since a young age - hence my articles talking (but really ranting) about film - but for a while I've been interested in doing more than talking about film. I'd like to contribute making films I love. 

I'm still in the early stages of establishing my independent film production company, Already Dreaming Film Productions, and with it I'm interested in starting a film production initiative with which to help launch and produce diverse films, particularly with a focus at independent films and productions with and or limited resources, and that put at its focus underrepresented voices, stories, and are led by minority crew members (ex. film director, but not limited to). 

While it will take a lot of effort, I'm greatly passionate about this project, its initiative, and film - so I'm kind of NOT giving up.

Although establishing Already Dreaming Film Productions is still a work in progress, and so is its initiative, feel free to contact me through the contact form located on the left tab of the page if you have any questions, would love to network, or connect in any way.

While I try to respond to all inquiries and as quickly as possible, it isn't always so. Generally expect a response back within four business days.


Sincerely, Dora Goto (writer...and potential film producer?)

Film Review: "Loco Love"

Image
Loco Love (2013) Loco Love , co-directed by Jose Luis Gutierrez Arias and Fernando Sariñana, is set in modern day Arizona and deals with a Mexican teen, Marisol (portrayed by Melany Bennett), and an American teen, Gavin (Evan Deverian), falling for each other and dating amidst the social pressures and racial tensions coming from both their families against each other. Though in theory the plot of this film sounded interesting - taking an apparent inspiration from Stephen Sondheim's "West Side Story", except set in contemporary time, and exploring how an interracial relationship could cope ( if ), in a town full of racial tension and prejudice from both racial sides involved - but unfortunately this film and its exploration of its themes and messages of racial tolerance and inclusivity failed in execution, starting with the characters who are supposed to carry the plot and help us connect. While Melany Bennett's interpretation of the protagonist, Marisol, is f

Film Review: "Christopher Robin"

Photograph by Laurie Sparham /  Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures During Disney's era of reviving classic Disney films and franchises into modern, live-action films, oftentimes offering different takes and perspectives, Marc Forster's Christopher Robin  was truly the refreshing - or rather, nostalgic - ride it promised to be. While the live-action film adaptation didn't reach the potential of A. A. Milne's original writing about Christopher Robin and his furry friends, Walt Disney Studios' 2018 take on the story of Christopher Robin was still soothing, truthful to it's iconic yellow bear and his friends (including in characterization), and delicate in it's treatment of its cinematography and transitions within the film. Christopher Robin  opens up with a young Christopher Robin attending his going away party with Pooh and his friends as Robin is to be sent to a boarding school, during which Robin promised to never forget Pooh and his friends.

What? Another blog?!

If you read my regular blog (which you probably don't), then you're probably scratching your head wondering what are you doing here and what this second blog is for...and now I'm going to tell you. Okay, after this sentence. I've been an avid film watcher and lover since I can remember. It started with films such as Disney's  Mulan   when I was a little girl (and continues as a little girl to this day) to appreciating films like Wes Anderson's The Grand Budapest Hotel, Darren Aronofsky's Requiem for a Dream , Francis Ford Coppola's The Godfather and anything in between - in topics, themes, directing styles, genres, ways of exploration, and really anything. Although I realize watching films is not a strange activity and rather is a common means of entertainment, my passion for watching films and actual filmmaking (that's a WHOLE other story) extends the casual seeing and appreciation. For me, I watch films and try to create films to (be) entertain(
