El ángel (2018)
Away from art near the money
Away from art near the money
The angel looks more like a clip or a short film. There are no doubts about the good uses of production techniques that clearly exceeds the argentinian average films. This does not imply all the weaknesses that the ambitious project contains that ends up being a film easily forgotten. The little artistic risk assumed by the creator narrating from a trivial perspective a story based on the life of the most famous serial killer in Argentina is clearly exposed by using the same resources over and over during the movie in different characters end up boring because although it manages to create cute atmospheres, the development of the script does not complete those illusions. The creator seeks to rely on roads he already traveled as the detail of the scenarios, the "beauty" aesthetic and the music of the time, creating "cool" atmospheres for the adolescent viewer. The result is a film with a taste of nothing.
