The desert island is one of the most prolific themes in fiction. This scenario Lucha between reason and salvation he was the main character El señor de las moscas (Harry Hook, 1990), also based on William Golding’s famous novel She was shipwrecked (Robert Zemeckis, 2000) and the series Perdidos (2004-2010).
A mysterious, inhospitable and primitive place that serves as a record of how civilization is a fragile forgotten heart. As Sam Raimi (Michigan, 1959), one of the masters of terror, portrays him in his new film, Submit Help (Enviad Help)which has been known for 30 years in black.
American filmmaker who revolutionized the genre with his cult film Hell of a pose (1981), a return to cinema that shaped the Marvel universe for years with a trilogy Spider-Man (2002–2007) Doctor Strange in the dark multiverse (2022).
Starring Damian Shannon and Mark Swift, this new film follows Linda Liddle (Rachel McAdams), an experienced employee at a large corporate company. Hard-working, optimistic and talkative, Linda spent years hoping for a simple promotion that never came.
On torture, the most charming result is Bradley Preston (Dylan O’Brien), the new jefe who eventually inherits his father’s company, a symptom of vulgarity and bad taste, incompatible with a position of greater responsibility.
A plane crash that left them both the only survivors. But this is not a typical love-hate story, but rather a social class story, very similar to the one written by Ruben Östlund Triangle of sadness (2022).
As happened in the former filmmaker’s film, the island serves as a detonator to switch the roles of oppressor and oppressed. Linda, a self-help book collector and obsessed with a reality to style supervisory, he knows perfectly well how to overcome tragedy and understands the power of what matters to him in the workshop.
As happened in the “Triangle of Sorrow”, the desert island serves to reverse the roles of oppressor and oppressed.
While Bradley, a young man useless in this saving environment, must follow the orders of his task in order to survive. “I’m a much better girl than you. Don’t misconstrue me as a weakness beloved,” Linda advised.
Empowered by the sense of freedom and authority that the island gives her, the main character discovers a very dark mila who is capable of doing anything to avoid returning to her previous life.
So, Linda, with whom McAdams shines in a more raw and proactive register than you’re used to, take advantage of the green roleas you have seen the protagonists Hell (David Fincher, 2014) Young prometedor (Emerald Fennell, 2020).
Unless it turns out to be as sophisticated a satire as Östlund’s, the film bucks the trend eat richthis appetite for the return of ricos, you could equally consider yourself a cinematic genre.
Raimi uses this paradisiacal setting as a laboratory of psychological tension and power plays with more comedy than his latest terror—Arrástrastrate to hell2009– but with the same bloody and eschatological anger that leads to greater efforts than this.
