The two films today are their country’s respective entries for Best International Feature in the Oscars and other award-giving bodies. So here for your watching enjoyment, are the ones from Argentina and Mexico.
Argentina, 1985 – Handling a boisterous and energized courtroom drama and legal procedural, Director Santiago Mitré may have been too young to recount these events from a first person perspective, but it doesn’t stop him from doing his utmost to bring this story to vivid cinema life.
Ricardo Darin plays Julio Strassera, then chief prosecutor, while Peter Lanzani also impresses as the deputy prosecutor, Luis Moreno Ocampo. Important here, is how the nine on trial refused to recognize the authority of a civilian court, insisting all threat happened should be tried in a military trial, who would have jurisdiction on the matter.
Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths – Having won Best Director at the Academy Awards for both The Birdman and The Revenant, this is the first film of Mexican Alejandro Iñárritu since that period of double wins. Critics have written about this new film as Iñárritu’s own version of Fellini’s 81/2, and I can see where that comes from, as it’s auto-biographical, surreal, and a case of very personal film-making.
