I chose to talk about a film that really moved me, its name is Tetro.
This is the story of a young man, Bennie, who go to Buenos Aires to meet his half-brother, Angelo.
Nine years ago, Angelo had cut the links with his family to write.
His new name is Tetro, the diminutive of his family name, Tetrocini.
Bennie wants to know why is brother has cut the links with his family and know the story of his mother, who is in the coma since nine years.
One day, Bennie discover the beginning of a novel that Angelo have written.
Here start the conflicts with his brother. The themes of family and quest of identity are important.
I love this film because the suspense is always present and the idea of the scenes in colour for the flashbacks whereas the scenes in the present are in black and white is very interesting.
The arts like theatre, music, writing and cinema are very important in the story and I like the films about arts in general.
Moreover, we can see the sensibility of the different persons, who do more than play the scene, they live the scenes with their personnalities they have in reality.
I almost remember Tetro ! I was so tired when I saw it that I slept 1 hour but this film from Coppola is really interesting.
ReplyDeleteI remember that you missed the moment when Benjamin had his accident .

I don't know this movie at all but I will watch it, it seems very good, but sad (?) ..
ReplyDeleteThat film was awsome, the best film I've ever seen with the school, apart from the films you've showed us Mrs P .
ReplyDeleteThanks "oncheonche" to the blog.
ReplyDeleteI don't know this movie. It is in black and white?
Yes, it is.
DeleteIt looks very interesting, i like the idea of changing clours for the past. Besides, it's a good idea that the conflicts stars when the character discovered a novel of his brother because in my opinion, it's more original than they had just spoke and desagree.. With writing there are sensitivity, i love it. Thank you for the article, i'll watch it as soon as possible.
