As you wish. When you want.
Where you want. The phone in 10 minutes. Advertising one of the companies that offer cash loans almost perfectly fit in it, whether in a nutshell is the image of "Traffic." With the awarded films, or at least nominated for a major award it is that for a good cause is not known how (by writing a review, so to speak "s after birds") about to bite. On the one hand, we have our not entirely agreeing with the rest of critics and audience opinion and, second, that unfortunate Oscar, whose presence here and now we can not understand for nothing, and the more of that undeniable presence. Call it briefly mixed feelings and let's start from the beginning. "Traffic" is the story of several people whose lives unexpectedly intertwine. Mexican policeman Javier Rogriguez, Robert Wakefield - the newly appointed head of the agency to combat drugs, his daughter Caroline, wife of arrested drug lord - Helena Ayala. What unites them? At first glance, absolutely nothing, stubborn certain links can be traced in the statement, "the dealer - clay," but the rest? What has all this to a pregnant woman and Hero, which is the top student in all possible areas? Well, no one said that everything in life is simple and logical, right? The first thing that strikes the eye when you turn the film is ...
colorful staff. Yellow, blue, to choose the color. I admit that the first minutes the only thing that was on my mind is, "what is the chicken?" version slightly less cultural. When passed the feeling that something is not right here, it remained confident about the fact that such a procedure is not so much angry (fortunately we have the "invention of shooting" to deal only at the beginning), which simply tired. If the assumption of developers The new treatment had some connection with the building of climate scenes "Mexican" (nightmarish yellow) or the office of the agency (a little more bearable blue) is to inform and by the way please: do not do it anymore, and if they did, wiser selects range of colors - it makes no sense to watch film in dark glasses.
The case is next soundtrack, the composer Cliff Martinez is known for soundtracks for such films as Narc, Wicker Park or Solaris. This time it is true cared without threatening the health of surprises, but in truth, it is much better. The only thing that comes to my mind, the term "absolutely non-invasive background noise." Music is not nervous, but in no way is catchy and can not be remember. Minimum salvation for the soundtrack is a piece of Kruder and Dorfmeister Sessions - 'Rockers Hi Fi (Love and Insanity Dub)', but this is too little. Do not expect the kind of brilliant gems score'a to "Requiem for a Dream" (Clint Mansell) and "Twin Peaks" (Angelo Badalamenti) - disappointment and rage guaranteed. Well, but annoying if photos, music and some uninteresting illogical plot, this movie probably sucks, so what he butterfly leg, received four Academy Awards? As what - Best Director - Best Supporting Actor for Benicio Del Toro - the best scenario adopted - Best Editing. And all clear. But ok, irony aside. Let's focus on the benefits of the image (for the balance of the above-mentioned 'visionary-fonijnych' baboli. Because there are some advantages? They are. And it's pretty big. First of all, the word seemingly crazy story.
"Traffic" had to be stylized documentary feature, as faithfully as possible to present the issues concerning the fight against drug business and affairs more or less related to the topic. So we have a corrupt cop, head of agency. Drugs, the daughter of a drug-, waiting for the process of drug lord, his wife, who suddenly found out some truth about her husband and decides to take matters into their own hands, drug cartels, military and foremost relentless impression that is all too tangible, real, and it was beautified on the occasion of the last correction scenario. Realism does not give you peace, until it wants to turn his head out the window and watch the neighbor's driveway.
The second very important issue is the great cast and fully deserved Oscar for Benicio Del Toro. I totally do not fault anything, nor for the selection of actors for the roles, nor to the game. At deserves special applause Erika Christensen, who as a dependent on cocaine Caroline Wakefield has created one of the most reliable creation of "drug addicted" young (or at least some of the younger) generation.
Although, overall, the film is somewhat uneven (next to the great game we have annoying 'little things' in a kind of nondescript soundtrack), it nevertheless really worth taking the time to watch it and reflection:' What do we do with him? What we have done with them? '. .
