Note: I have not read the book by Mordecai Richter, telling me to be a cult. I thought, therefore, a bit ', questions about the ability to write a quick review anyway. I do it because if all the reviewers should have read all the books from which they review the films are taken, no one writes more than cinema, seeing a movie seize two hours of life, a book for days, even if he is a cult more. will be remembered as a masterpiece, the version of Barney, the first compact work of Canadian filmmaker Richard J. Lewis, usually accustomed to the TV series, but able to return back in the eighties even the famous series The Alfred Hitchcock Hour sull'NBC Universal. The mastery of Lewis on the small screen does not stop trigger applause in theaters, or perhaps the relationship is strengthened between the TV and the movies must one to investigate more. Report prose-poetry?
The Barney's Version is the story of Montecristo cigars, Havana's famous smoked by Che Guevara, products with the background of a reader who read Alexandre Dumas in the factories of Cuba Giamatti, who won also the 2011 Golden Globe for best actor, opens the scenes holding his cigar and the cigar goes to the end (I miss Bersani ). Cigars and Brandy , smoking and drunkenness, a few holes of heroin. I am thirty years of American lives and excesses. Barney-Giamatti is a frequenter of a Bloomsbury Group Italian-American, tempered as Judaism, which unfolds between Rome and Canada, with a side trip to the States. With the kit of your group of friends (on all outstanding Boogie-Speedman, another actor Lewis recovers from his fiction, quite a jump from appearances on Dawson's Creek ... ) gets married and remarried, he and two children is dropped because his third wife prefers one of his collaborators. When there is a lot of alcohol in half - I went over to Giovanardi - is difficult to maintain decent romantic relationships. Miriam-Rosamunde Pike is perfect, is an angel above all memorable with a joke: "There was just the break. And I'm still here. " It 's the sign of a love to be the envy Plato's Symposium, the one that is based on patience, the patience, tolerance, understanding and acceptance of the desires of the Other with a capital letter. A woman so no one wins when you want it (the scene of the train), a woman so he wins, and wins together, when it is time!
Then, unfortunately, the tenderness of the original and built a life together blurs the first fling of her husband Barney, who after the abstinence diec'anni (he, ex Trombatore serial) indulges in a fling with the disengaged Divette duty. But so can a wife, an angelic woman that not even Dante, give her husband the first error? Moreover, this is a normal life. A normal life in which even the pauses are tolerated, in which even the pauses of boredom count. Life is hectic, but how many times we feel slow and heavy, bored? "The tedium axle" in the words of Giacomo Leopardi good. There are breaks and there is the soundtrack, incomplete, syncopated. Evenu Shalom begins and when the ear begins to ears of the audience knows the rhythm, the music stops. The friends leave, and ends, Shalom Evenu along with another marriage. The same with Leonard Cohen I'm Your Man , there sings more than one way. Cohen, Evenu Shalom, the kippah, the stones on the graves are reminiscent of a non-Orthodox Judaism, Croce: "we can not say 'Jews , but ultimately" non-ce-ne-no-cares. "
Photography and fabulous scenery, the colors of North America primitive, unspoiled, where the fall colors are favorites of the gray skyscrapers citizens. Hats off to the makeup and wigs that make them pass thirty masterfully faces wrinkled, hair that s'incanutiscono. A pinch of
homoerotic tension in the friendship between Barney and Boogie, tension that always ends in a stalemate. The rest in Bloomsbury and groups of artists there, too. Speedman also remember the Jude Law of the Talented Mr. Ripley (which even then there was the Italy of small squares, there were money, talents, there was the death of aquatic ).
Then there are the images of death. When a film knows put two in the foreground so egregious, it is already so. The body of Clara-Lefevre, the first wife committed suicide, took the pale coloring and laying of Pontormo's Entombment of Christ , rare reminiscences so. The unmade bed mad remember the tragedies of the last Titian red. After the drama, however, here is the play-by Izzy Dustin Hoffman, the father of Barney, the speck living. Even his death is stronger: the death bed of a heart attack? The alcove of the whores, more red, but a wry grin. Barney says, "you look like a king." It is not true ... I enjoyed the corpse dressed better, a heavier pile could help. Of course cinema today falls in love with images burial (stuff after a while 'also complains Foscolo): the Hours on all but the very Italian and The finest in diabetic grandmother's death scene Ozpetek in Mine Vaganti be remembered. difficult for a film biography of a period of so long life is complete, Barney's Version c'infastidiamo can do it if it breaks and delays. Only because he imbalance on a case as positive .
