A Última Chamada

Enjoyed this film about Dylan, fine acting and artsy type colorization! Subject matter may not be for everyone but everyone can also learn something from this film about any addictions you may have . Even our so called heros and mentors suffer just like us, but we need not succumb to them , there is always a choice. Worth a watch!

My relationship with this movie is very special. Mr Bernstein visited the island of Corfu on May 2018 in order to visit the university I graduated from, Ionian University. The island was so charming that he decided to premiere his las feature film not in Athans but in Corfu. Everbody was very happy to watch the movie on the island. Then, my dear professor sent me an e-mail and told me that the movie needed to be subtitled immediately. So we decided to accept the challenge. We did the subtiling in 3 days without sleeping, eating and having to go to work every afternoon. I loved the movie so much that I could not resist. First of all, the script was magnificent. It was a pleasure to translate a high quality script that had so many intertextual references which you have to spot. All in all, the movie had its own symmetry and geometry. A movie speaking about life with all its all the joys and sorrows. A poet filled with a lust for life being exploited by everybody, all the social institutions, trying to take advantage of him, to make him feel mad and guilty because he can to bear the weight of such a cruel world. So he writes about life in a poetic way incessantly in order to find excitement.

I was staring through the cage of those meticulous ink strokes - at an absolute beauty.

I loved it. True theater, amazing cinematography, beautiful language and an unforgettable portrayal by Rhys Ifans of Dylan Thomas.

The cast is immaculate, with Rhys Ifans delivering an absolute knockout, Oscar worthy performance as Dylan Thomas, and the rest of the ensemble follows suit. I really enjoyed the way this film at times felt like an intimate stage play, then danced back into feeling like a large budget arthouse film all within moments. The scene with Malkovich over the surgical table was just phenomenal. A true classic in the genre.

I can go dark. I don't mind sadness. But, give me a reason . The metier of this film is the towering performance of Rhys Ifans as the poet Dylan Thomas. It would not be out of step to call it the entire film. The rest just window dressing. It's not that the performances are bad, it just that this movie wallows in its own obscurity. We have no reason to care about our characters, let alone it's protagonist. It's attempts at humor, it's attempt at being abstract and art house fall away. We're left with a depressing jumble of sound bytes. To it's credit, much of the monochrome photography is excellent, and gives it a period elegance. Perhaps, if you're a Thomas expert, this will already speak to you; but, if you want to know the man, this is not the place to start.
