andrea c @Charst Jan 27, 2026 Intenso dramma di redenzione e di formazione in cui James Franco regna sovrano e sfrutta un'infinità di sentiti primi piani per poter creare un personaggio completo e profondo. La trama è semplice e scorrevole, lascia spazio alle emozioni e non sembra mai essere stretta in forzature o in eccessi. Tutti i personaggi sono credibili e i dialoghi mai noiosi o troppo banali. Ottimo anche l'uso della fotografia, ad eccezione forse della sequenza in barca, evitabile sia nella trama che nell'esecuzione. Purtroppo, il finale molto emozionante e toccante, viene a mio avviso rovinato dall'ultima scena di ritorno; che disinnesca il dramma dello sconto con la realtà; per lasciare spazio ad un'interpretazione più ampia e non necessaria.
