Interesting story, although many facts were left out to create a sense of ambiguity.
A son kisses his mother gently,
Her tear, drops.
A childhood has been lost,
Gone,
Tempered into something new.
There is no return,
And no reward.
A fever dream of horror and angst. Ari's new feature is a ground-breaking piece, delightful in its ambition. Although fascinatingly entertaining, 'Beau is Afraid' at times becomes self-indulgent with themes that seem to wander uncontrollably. Nevertheless, this may be the charm of the film; A blockbuster where the director has no one to answer to, but himself.
I assumed this would be a film about the mistreatment of elderly people in care homes. I was wrong; 'The Mole Agent' is a sad story of the natural degradation of ageing and the loneliness that comes with it. "we live in a throw away society" says Charlie Day; and yet this film is in a sense surprisingly uplifting. Perhaps due to the protagonist and his gentlemanly manner.
