Things happen
Bjorn Andresson’s mother committed suicide when he was very young. He was then cast in Visconti’s film ‘Death in Venice’, as Tadzio, who was, in the eyes of the film’s main protagonist, “the most beautiful boy in the world”. Subsequently, he does not consider himself to have had a very happy life. We’re all made, at least in part, by our experiences; Bjorn, perhaps, was not well-served by his. Because his story is so particular, and peculiar, there’s some interest here; but at the same time, things happen to all of us. One doesn’t have to blame Bjorn for how his life turned out to see that there aren’t stright lines between its beginning and its end; and sadly, there are many people who are unhappy and depressed, even those whose lives have contained little of external note. Sometimes, it’s more interesting to watch a documentary than a fiction inspired by the truth; here, I felt that a novelisation of Bjorn’s life might bee interesting than a straighforward reporting.
Hard done by?
Our sympathies follow this spectral Gothic figure as the familiar tale of instant fame followed by disillusionment is played out.Not an actor (his acting in DIV minimal and awkward) and defined by his looks, I wish he had followed full time his talent for music. Watching him listening to his own playing of Chopin was revealing. But the musical part of his life is left out of this film and therein lies the imbalance.
Obviously a depressive which may have been inherited from his mother, would his life have been much different without DIV? Impossible to live with and self pitying.
I’m not sure why his grandmother comes in for such blame here. Using opportunities as they arise is not blameworthy. She surely would have wanted him to have a happy life, she brought the two children up and his sister seems to be well adjusted,
