Anton Dolin. Ten films of the week: 19-25 March
"Angels of the Universe" (festival show) . The first and main film of the first festival "The Days of Icelandic Cinema in Moscow and St. Petersburg." Icelandic cinema is very small and extremely little known outside the limits of Iceland, however, some names are now a fan of European cinema is obliged to know. For example, Friedrick Thoridricksson, all five films of which will be shown in both capitals. The “Angels of the Universe” is the last and most famous whose action takes place in a crazy house. The main character is a schizophrenic who, together with two friends (one considers himself Hitler , and the other establishes telepathic contact with the Beatles group) runs out of a psychiatric hospital to her will. The film received the main prize in Karlovy Vary, a reward for the script in Gothenborg and was put forward by Iceland for Oscar.

"White whales" (festival show) . The earliest of Friedricksson's first phenomenon of the Friedricksson’s first playing festival is 1987. The story, of course, is about whale. No allusions on "mobile Dick". The main characters - the sailors - yearn from land by whales and from nothing to do begin to violate the law, until it comes to a showdown with law enforcement agencies. Here, Friedricksson first used the glory to him the manner of introducing purely documentary lotions into the fabric of a feature film. In particular, the landscapes that are in Iceland, really, the miracle is how good.

Cartoon program Frederick Buck (festival show) . The tank is a Canadian animator who shot in France for many years. His films exist at the junction of two cultures and are full of longing in lost harmony with nature or history. Primitive totems of early cartoons coexist with each other at a parade in a small French town and in the forest among the Aboriginal Indians. Late cartoons are pretentious philosophical works, for which Greenpeace must erect a monument in his headquarters. For example, almost the most famous work of the animator is “a man who planted trees” is a thoughtful narrative of a peasant who sowed the acorns on the wastelands ... And over time a huge forest grew up there, "and no one knew that they owed this one person." Animation technique, and the plots resemble the intellectual hit of the Soviet animation - "Girl and Dolphin." The picture is really surprisingly beautiful. Real painting, although defiantly retrograde.

"The resulting tiger, invisible dragon." The film -event - for the first time in the history of 10 nominations for Oscar for a non -ang -speaking film, and what! Taiwanese, complete difficult and untreatable names. The whole thing is not only in the masters of special effects from the "matrix", but also in the concept - to collect together in one cauldron all the Americans's template ideas about the East. The excessive task is to prove in Hollywood that the Chinese cinema is the coolest, - the director of the Ice Storm and the Feelings and Reason, the director of the icy storm and “feelings and mind”, took up. According to the genre - a fairy tale. Chow Yong Fat is a knight trying to resign and put his fabulous sword into the scrap, and the fair sex is swirling around him, who only cares about the sword, but not to Chow Yong Fata. ( Detailed review. )

"The second life." The genre, from which they gradually began to wean, and the young filmmakers do not even know him at all: comedy in French. To the old heights, of course, she can’t rise, but to relax with her soul and body behind watching an unpretentious film with a specific soft humor and charming characters - a sacred thing. “The second life” is a parable about a man who was afraid to make decisions and suddenly turned out to be 17 years older. The father of the family, the head of a huge corporation, a bastard and a redneck, forgetting about a former lover ... He is trying to correct the situation, and this is a difficult task. The director and main role of Patrick Brudely inspires sympathy and sympathy that in itself is a considerable merit. A separate attraction of the film is the participation of Maria de Medeiros, the Portuguese diva, actress and director, famous for the role of the spoiled lover of Bruce Willis in Pulp Fiction .

"69" . The first Thai film in the Russian box office - well, dashing trouble; Now the young Thai cinema is rapidly gaining glasses on the world film market, catching up with the southern Koreans and approaching the Chinese. Black comedy, between the "Adrenaling Pitch" and "Run, Lola, Run." The secretary of Bangkok, a dumped to the day before from work, finds a box of money at his door. After she decides to pocket unexpected capital, his alleged owners go on the stage ... very high -quality, professionally, although sometimes bizarre for our unusual eye, the product worked. In a European man, funny, asian exotic, although most reminiscent of Tarantino (see plot #3 in Pulp Fiction ): What else to desire the filmman? Unless, a little originality, but this product is actually rare.

"Romanovs: Venzenos family." Gleb Panfilov is a classic, and when a classic of domestic cinema makes a movie in the new conditions, besides - a pathos and historical movie, then wait for trouble. In addition, for unknown reasons, despite the complete lack of funding, domestic directors for some reason seek to make the most expensive, that is, costume cinema. Panfilov’s film is meticulous in the reconstruction of the details of everyday life and inaccurate in relation to the historical facts of fresco, designed to put an ellipsis in the annoying majority of the plot about the last days of the royal family. It all depends on whether such a tragic-romantic interpretation is suitable for you. In general, in the very choice of the topic, a priori trap is a priori: it is supposed to sympathize, regret Nikolai and his household, but the last Russian emperor was at least contradictory.

"Feather of the Marquis de Sad." The film, which has sensed both in the American and in European (where it has just come out), the rental. Phil Kaufman, known for the film adaptation of the "unbearable lightness of being," again mixes the questions of the floor with philosophical questions, and this time the figure of the main character is chosen very accurately - the Marquis de Garden is better than anyone, will conduct a connecting thread from XIX century in XXI. But you can’t call the casting unmistakable, and indeed in this pretentious, although it is clearly a shallow and not empty picture that is not much not thought out, not well -thought. Something is intentionally, because the idea consists in this: create your Marquis de Sad. Although Jeffrey Rasha turned out very good. ( Detailed review .)
