A few film makers have a CV like Richard Linclter. Who hit the box office Rock school For his experiences with the endoscope, he is amazingly curious and consistent – with style and material. This time, he tested himself with a room: a drama that has been almost completely placed in one room and focuses on one character. The setting is a Sardi bar in New York in 1943 when it was Rodgers and Herstin Oklahoma! It is the first offer for victory. The character is the American Lorenian Hart lyric.
Before Rodgers and Herastin, there was Rodgers and Hart. They met when Rodgers was still in high school, where they wrote a large number of musical plays including known songs such as “My Funny Valentine”, “Alice Romance” and “Blue Moon” is the title. Ethan Hawk, a Lincalter friend and repeated collaborator, somehow managed to shrink himself to fit with the 47 -year -old alcohol and despair, his former creative partner ignored and washed intentionally. Seven months later, the drink will get it. In fact, he is in the process of placing it in front of us.
After 26 years, he spent working on the wrong Bings for the lost and lost morning. Hart despises and hidden height, and despises emotional feelings Oklahoma!Praise the bitterness. However, his intelligence did not give him, which gives his hatred toxic effectiveness. While it is unnecessarily free of the gathering Oklahoma! After drilling, it is shared by the utmost benefit from the gentle Paraman (Bobby Canaval) and the young pianist who was the joint Christings, which sparkles binding through a package of his old songs. They still love him, but he has a lot of songs in the bank.
Hart is likely to be homosexual – that he certainly exudes the misery of persecution – but, as he says, the writer should be everywhere, able to feel life as a man, woman or horse. He is currently obsessed with a young woman, Elizabeth Wieland (Margaret Kabonley, is appropriately glowing with young people among these theatrical epidemics that have been exposed to the sun), and she is a 27 -year -old student. Her embroidered novels are elaborately raised by her diplomas, even trying to prosecute her. The real life messages served as the basis for the text by Robert Cabo, who also wrote Linklate's' Me and Orson Wales.
The elimination of this without power, does not return to this man who may imagine it, given that this man you may imagine, given that this is the colleague who wrote “The lady is homeless.” Avoid or opinions: He is a semi -cut whiskey warrior, anyone who will be afraid to sit next to him, with a linklater camera closed for the period. Worse than his malice is his need, which seems to penetrate this fourth wall to put his sticky fingers around our throat. In Bravura theatrical performance, Hawke makes the genius really pity.
What is more fun is the feeling of the very special period in New York, then in its last stages, when it destroyed itself around the round table at the Algonquin Hotel and put their sponsors on Ritz. There is a tension from nostalgia to Oklahoma! The party gathered around the single phone to hear critic reviews, and read from late publications while they are deteriorating. Sardi, synonymous for that time in Broadway, takes a golden glow, and Piano Trilling across its empty area. Linklater treats that space as a stage, and moves around with Hart's move. One shot is disgusting from the sad heart that was seen through a gap in the gauze curtain, framed the door of a closed semi -closed, because it is unexpected.
Even in this safe space for this Luvvies, there is a feeling that the spirit of the world that allowed men like Lorenz Hart to dispel (a verb he loves) and is replaced by anything that he considers lychat or poor thinking is replaced by something else. This type of wide social analysis is completely at the Richard Linclter house. You feel that it is rising to the taste. The world abroad is in a state of war. The joints play the pianist in the uniform. He is waiting for its publication. Patriotism in the air. The entire tape joins a loud delivery from “there”, the cry of the gathering that announces that “the yanka is coming”.
at that time , Oklahoma! He was criticized in some circles for being very trivial offered to a country in the war. After eighty years, this butter and the bubble are still working on a treatment; Oklahoma! He had a victory in West End Ran just two years ago. Hart, a dinosaur from the adventurous jazz era, wants to make fun of the pretexts and show human beings as they are already; Rodgers knows that they only want to see the boy getting the girl and an exciting choir. Oklahoma! Nostalgia for America was not present, as Hart notes. But this is what people want, Rodgers meters. This is a job. It was brown: the fifties of the last century were just around the corner.
