Nessuno sa che io sono qui

The movie and its pace probably isn't something for the big masses. Which almost is ironic considering that the movie is about fame (amongst other things). The movie also does not shy away from being what commonly would be known as ugly. Always in the eye of the beholder of course. Jorge Garcia is of course known for his role in the show Lost - but there may be some who have not seen it and may be surprised by his very subtle portrayal here.

The movie overall is rather subtle and the already mentioned pacing will drive some away I would imagine. Those who stay and watch through will witness a quite powerful ending to the movie. A really good one, that you may or may not expect from this ...

Beautiful scenery, understated emotional subject matter. A little slow at the beginning but worth watching

Since I am not (and will never be) famous, I am fascinated by the quest of many people to achieve fame. What is equally fascinating is the aftermath of fame. Nobody Knows I'm here is a wonderfully accomplished look into the exploitation of Chilean singer Memo. With a golden voice, it appears he is headed for a life of fame and glory. However, his success is short-lived and his subsequent life becomes a study in adapting and accepting the life that he has been given. This movie (contrary to some reviewers) unfolds in a perfect pace. (As a side note, I am a bit perplexed that many reviews equate scenes of dialogue with the notion that nothing is happening. As if their own lives were boring and a waste of time since they lack car chases, explosions and shootouts.) Along the way, many things happen in this movie that are un-expected, but, not un-believable. This is a credit to the Gaspar Antillo's superb directing. If you are looking for a beautifully depicted slice of life set in the lush Chilean country side, you will thoroughly enjoy this movie.

What a beautiful Chilean production, Jorge Garcia always perfect, melancholic charisma, well developed script, silence, cold colors, contrasting with his colorful fantasies, the enamel, all very detailed, simple, slow, sad, very good ...

I thought this was a beautiful exploration of a tortured soul. The unfurling of the central character, and the girl who comes to love him, was sensitively played by both actors. The gentle teasing out of Memo's life by Jorge Garcia was a joy to watch. You shouldn't expect a traditional fast paced action film as that's not what this is but if you like character driven film then you'll enjoy this. With a satisfying end and some beautiful scenery and a performance full of emotion, I would recommend this film for a lazy Sunday evening.
