I remember it like it was time: the room full, the lights go down, a few minutes and stunned the audience that is literally a crazy rhythm, deafening, overflowing ... a river of color, sound, action, amazingly and wonderfully irresistible kitsch. Someone puts his fingers in his ears, someone will complain about 'the volume is too high', the rest (the majority) are overwhelmed by the images and the strength of this fiction-contemporary (not a paradox) signed by Kathryn Bigelow.
E 'on the last day of the year, perhaps the last days of humanity, the world is insane and people will go bust with the' squid ', the latest to abandon the illusion and to escape an inescapable destiny. Yet in this whirlwind of feelings is filthy even those who bravely and romantically, believes in love and hope. Strange Days is a film for those who have the courage to 'believe', no matter what: in God, the people, hope in the future. It was 1995 when I saw it: they were not even the Twin Towers collapsed, but there was already a company who theorized without reference points and lobotomized by 'Big Brother' ...
Yet the final, that final, in a New Year's hysterical and tumultuous, so artificial, irreverent, absurd, unbelievable, is one of the most beautiful final I have ever seen the movies. Strange Days is the movie 'mandatory' waiting to see the new year, perhaps sipping a good wine or clutching the hand of a loved one. And, inevitably, make a wish.
Happy New Year to all!
Happy New Year to all!
