South Solitary – A Film For Those Who Refuse To Give Up On HOPE
Take nine rather unpleasant people who treat each other badly, put them on a small, desolate, windswept island and you should have the makings of a film that even Ingmar Burgman would find tedious Shirley Barrett, who seems to have a predilection for making films about unattractive people, manages to turn these ingredients into an elegy to “hope”. Hope, you may be aware, is a member of the trilogy of eternal virtues that can redeem the lives of people who refuse to succumb to feelings of self-loathing and despair.The other two eternal virtues are faith and love, and if I have a criticism of this film, it is that Barrett does not allow the last two humans standing on the island to consummate their growing mutual attraction, at least within the confines of the film The prop she uses to make this believable is the lighthouse they manage to keep illuminated, shining in the darkness of the surrounding stormy sea
Miranda Otto gives us a grown-up reprise of the character she created in Barrett’s first film, “Love Serenade”
Marton Csokas crafts his performance as a World War I shell-shock, neurotic so organically that we can believe his stilted overtures to greater intimacy at the end of the film
Barry Otto’s light house keeper has taken a different route to dealing with the moral void uncovered by the evil and stupidity of World War I. He too has been damaged by the experience, but instead of succumbing to the numbing silence of Csokas, he has embraced a near military conformity to the idea of the benign authority of human institutions, all appearances to the contrary. It is a mark of Barrett’s skill as a writer-director, that she allows his niece to acknowledge his care for her when she had attracted the disapproval of polite society.
Barett has crafted a small, quietly spoken, life affirming film that draws the viewer into the lives of its protagonists and leaves them feeling richer for the experience.
