Unlike the embodiment of Xavier Beauvois, in the French tradition of important issue that supersedes the film as soon as seen, soon forgotten, Weerasethakul suggests delayed. Uncle Boonmee is a work that reveals itself quickly and distilled slowly, reaching enlightenment, though not surprised about the ingenuity. It is a journey through the jungle and its senses, and through our imagination strained. Finally, the esoteric intellectualist expected, especially by the critics said, is not really the game, and so much more! However, Uncle Boonmee is nevertheless a demanding film, surprisingly cut, which demands above all to accept the walk he proposes, even if it seems to go a little too far for our liking. Fortunately, we bring home safe and sound. The atmosphere
is raised from the first sequence, by far the most fascinating night of the tour a curious cow through the jungle until the striking silhouette of the first monkey ghost with red eyes and shiny. Even if you do not really understand what is happening (for now), we can only bow before the formal beauty of which is an introduction to the trip, and the mysterious atmosphere tinged with malice who wafts into the soundtrack. Between reality and fantasy, thrill and emotion, the image of this dignified man dying but allegories of life before and after can be quite easily led by the end from nose to feel what we are offered at every moment, and apart from an exercise slide a little shaky, this Uncle Boonmee is an amazing experience, but asked not boring for a penny, using tricks and techniques taken views as old cinema itself. A film to be addressed with the greatest curiosity, and makes you want to discover the previous filmography (she also) by Apichatpong Weerasethakul, as long as we accept his vision of balancing the art of film and directed away from the shackles mainstream often wrongly regarded as an immutable standard.
