Too Late (1996)
the darkness of Pintilie
18 June 2016
the theme - lost of hope. tool- aggressive dialogues, nudity and a thriller who covers the political message. pretext - one of the most brutal episode after 1989 in Romania. try of a kind of poetic form who is lost in the sea of frustration. the film propose the same vision who defines Lucian Pintilie filmography. same fury to discover the truth, same absence of illusions, same heavy expressions of protest. only problem - the feeling than all is only excuse for a personal fight who ignore the public. because few scenes seems out of sense. because the mixture between poetry of ugly and the references to the near reality are accidentals. Pintilie in war against himself. for impose a message, his vision about Romanian reality, his truth. at the first sigh , all is OK. but the film is not exactly part of disillusion but slice from a profound darkness who represents universe of the director. so, the tools are more important than the message.
