Really surprising from an American perspective
I saw this on a trip recently to Hungary and I have to say that I was really impressed. It stands up against the bigger movies made regarding this subject, and it stands proudly. It didn’t try to tackle the enormity of the Holocaust as one user suggested, rather it tried (and succeeded in my opinion) in tackling the story and fate (or lack thereof) of a young Jewish- Hungarian boy during the second world war. How would one explain this sudden shift in reality to a boy who is still in the process of maturing? How much can he possibly understand? When the ordeal is finished, could anything be “real” again afterwords? I thought the subject matter was challenging enough for it to warrant a second viewing.Marcel Nagy is spectacular, the director chose an amazing face and voice for the part, the character’s attitude towards what’s happening is shockingly mature and disaffected. He doesn’t break down crying, or screaming , “why?!”, he simply accepts that this has happened and tries to deal with it almost entirely inside his head. He is an introvert, speaking softly, and politely to those around him. He doesn’t ask too many questions because he already thinks he knows all the answers. And these terrible answers are projected to the audience with the use of his powerful blue eyes, and his vital facial expressions (there are few scenes where the boy looks directly into the camera, and makes eye contact with you, the audience and I almost burst out crying..)
The look of the film was what made the rest so sublime, the grays and blues were so dis-enchantingly beautiful, as horrid in a way it is to call a Holocaust film beautiful, the effect is more of seeing what is inside the mind of an innocent; the dramatization of color desaturating could be considered the gradual removal of that innocence. The best way I could describe this is a ‘dreamy nightmare’, also so fitting an aesthetic, since a delirium sets in to those suffering, and those watching them suffer – it all becomes so heightened and insane; the men and women here are being stripped of the appreciation of beauty, but kindness among these prisoners remain, and that seems a unique aspect to this story. The fact is that Kertesz’s memories include these acts of kindness, and camaraderie, rather than remembering back to it as something so completely horrendous, as as to be denying these victims the right to be human. But they are. In this film, there are no extreme acts of violence or mayhem (some minor, but no guns mowing down innocents like Schindler’s List), just a quiet, reflective look at the human condition, and the innocent youth caught in the web of evil’s banality.
I think the main problem people had with this film was they were expecting something… a little more dramatic, while this is a very quiet, very slow film that will appeal to those who work on those frequencies.
