A New York Winter’s Tale, review: 'a baboonish catastrophe'

1 out of 5 stars

 

By Robbie Collin

 

Directed by: Akiva Goldsman. Starring: Colin Farrell, Jessica Brown Findlay, Russell Crowe, Jennifer Connelly, Will Smith. 12A cert, 118 min.

 

It’s early days, but A New York Winter’s Tale could turn out to be the defining screech-out-loud comedy of 2014. The only catch is that we’re supposed to take it seriously. This is, in theory at least, a magic-realist romance set against the eternal struggle between good and evil, and boiled down from a much longer book by Mark Helprin. But the whole thing is so roaringly absurd, and delivered with such hands-clasped sincerity, that the only rational response is to laugh the house down.

 

It is, beyond a shadow of a doubt, the worst film Russell Crowe has appeared in. It may even be the worst film Colin Farrell has appeared in, which is really saying something.

The setting is a twinkly fantasy version of early-1900s Manhattan, with Farrell and Crowe’s characters locked in an eternal cat-and-mouse pursuit. Farrell is a petty street thief called Peter Lake whose best friend, truly and honestly, is a magical flying horse called Horse. Crowe, meanwhile, is a bad-tempered Fagin-type with a truly horrendous put-a-shamrock-in-me-Guinness Irish accent. He wants to kill Peter for reasons unclear, and has also made some kind of pact with the Devil, who here comes in the guise of a Will Smith cameo.

 

When Peter falls in love with Beverly (Jessica Brown Findlay, from Downton Abbey), a young Englishwoman elegantly dying of consumption, Crowe’s character steps up his fatwa. The young couple flee to her family’s ancestral pile by a frozen lake where, in a tragic twist, Peter makes love to her with such ferocity that she dies on the spot.

Heartbroken, he wanders the city for 100 years, until a chance encounter with a terminally ill young girl catapults the plot into a galaxy of mawkishness previously unknown to science.

 

The film was directed by the veteran Hollywood screenwriter Akiva Goldsman, who wrote Batman & Robin but was never convicted. Making this has been his long-running passion project, which adds a tangible top note of sadness to the general air of baboonish catastrophe.

Ovo nije ozbiljna rečenica, pa trustu mozgova bi bili potrebni vekovi da ustanove koji film je pobednik u tako jakoj konkurenciji...

[Indy]

E, pa, zamisli sad... ovaj je gori i od toga!

 

EDIT, ali

Ma, jes gori... Ovako, Indy, davno se Krou šalio sa saradnjom sa Goldsmanom na Blistavom umu. Wir nije hteo da ponovi dvojac zamišljenog junaka iz Hauardovog filma kao mastera u svom. Krou je insistirao da zamišljeni junak iz Goldsmanovog scenarija mora da igra mastera u filmu u kome on igra komandera. Vir ga je odjebao iz prve, ali je na kraju Krou isterao kod Vira svoj kasting zato što je znao da njegov favorit i reditelj dele isti ukus kada je muzika u pitanju...

 

Duhovit je Krou... Shvatam tvoje traume, od dole sa muškim brkovima, preko Rompera Stompera i Eksploiteda, ali Krou ruši sistem iz unutra... Taj je nafrabikovao takvu estetiku ružnog da bi mu i Eko pozavideo, a Čaplin mu ponudio svoj edipovski štap...

Ne znam ti ja te tvoje finese, ja sam samo 1 usputni filmski gledalac. (Koji samo pokušava da izbegne užasno loše filmove, kakav je izgleda ovaj).

[Ajant23]

Eh, ali da li je najgori? "That is the question?", što bi Ofeila rekla u apokrifnoj verziji originala od/of/de/fon švajcarca Saksa Gramatika, što je bio pseudonim dame kako tvrde najnovije feministkinje, čije mislu pišu muzičari koji su se u begu od mafije sakrili u all girl band...

Which is not to say that Mr. Jarmusch wants to live forever, extending his self-proclaimed dilettanteness into the centuries, like his loving vampires. “I like that there’s an end,” he said, putting on his metal voice. “ ‘Because that’s the way I like it baby. I don’t want to live forever.’ That’s from a Motörhead song.”
