"SECOND BLAST": THE SOUL CARVED IN BLACK AND WHITE


A handshake, a hug, a look frozen. The silence and fear. Melville films Pending ... in 150 minutes. The vacuum in Black and White. A story of men, gangsters en route to their destiny, a destiny of death as the only really know them forge the gangster film noir. Every action leads to the inevitable, to the irreparable, to the inevitable. In the darkness forever

ups respond like an echo flashes of wisdom which man is capable. The off-the-law is sometimes with a conscience, a morality of hardened steel. Far from the tiny pickpocket or pathetic scroungers of family heirlooms white collar would be like the offenses we deserve? ... The Fate ancient glacial beauty of a black diamond. And action stretches while languishing in melancholy, which carve a sketch and visual narrative. Cold and restraint for a shadow play.

And then, in middle of the work in the heart of the murderous act ahead, it holds its breath ...
( its "First Breath" indeed ...) for a few moments of sleep apnea: 4 seconds "climax" (as a moment of eternity) are straying from the camera filmmaker plunging ground on a group of ants waving in all directions. Plan-perfect metaphor for turbulence and internal actions those that operate against their puppets in distress, the plight fixed in advance. Mechanical implacably set by Melville pupil is the black film series at the forefront of modern tragedy in which man plays "to the loser wins." The soul carves them calmly to the most archaic primary colors: black and white, good and evil. The great Shakespeare would not have denied! ...

And our own fascination to dwell too: the strong figure of the hero of Melville, true to his principles and united until death do we breath does not a sudden reversal of values in a world that would work on the head ...? No, Melville warned: it does not pretend to understand "morality" of his hero to universal morality. And the traction of the film gives us the key to his story:
"At birth, it is given to man only one right: the choice of his death. But if this choice is controlled by the disgust of his life, then its existence as a man has been a mere mockery ".

In the distance, already pregnant, is emerging theater iced the "Army of Shadows" .
