One battle showed after changing another book

Paul Thomas Anderson was a fan of author Thomas Pinchon for years, After I have already adapted a “rooted deputy”, “,” But PTA is trying to know how to adapt “Vineland” for about two decades. Pynchon is famous for the intense, complex and political novels that mix historical imagination, ridicule and philosophy in eccentric characters in sprawling plots that address the madness of greatness, conspiracy and the chaotic nature of daily life. It is a writer who loves to mix topics with a high concept with steam humor, and weaves them with mathematical accuracy. There is nothing like “passive entertainment” when it comes to the work of Pynchon, so the fact that Anderson has used his novels as a basis for his films more than once is a testimony of his talent and taste.

“Vinelland” as a basis for Anderson is electrifying “one battle after another”, “ But the film takes some major freedoms with source materials, to the extent that its description of adaptation is not an accurate description. Imagine, perhaps, or even a modern update, but certainly not rebuilding 1: 1. Instead, Anderson took the topics and spirit of the novel and integrated a more longing story with what is happening politically in our world today. Anderson told Leonardo DiCaprio in an interview with the parts that spoke with me and just started like a thief. Esquire. “I think this is what all the writers do – we are publishing thieves.” He continued:

“You have always loved the” Les Misérables “.

This was the correct invitation to Anderson “One battle after another” is incredibleAnd one of the most political relevant films released by a major studio … perhaps never.

“Vineland” was appointed in 1984, the year in which Ronald Reagan was re -elected, while “one battle after another” was appointed during our current schedule (or near it). The memories of the past in “Vinland” pushed the characters to the 1960s, while “one battle after another” shows us the years before the leadership of Man Ghetto Pat/Bob Ferguson (DicAPRIO) and its partner Perfidia Beverly Hills (Teyana Taylor) their daughter (Chase Infiniti), who is now 16 now General. Obama’s first state. This jump in the schedule turns PTA policy concentration.

While Anderson’s adaptation maintains a lot of emotional resonance and the personal dynamics of the original characters, it transforms the deeper political social criticism of the novel. In the movie “VINELAND”, the Brock Vond’s enthusiastic trial-a direct extension of the authoritarian in the Reagan era-turns into a rock campaign from Colonel Lukegao of Sean bin Lukjao against immigration. But Luxo does not behave alone; He strongly seeks the approval of a mysterious group of the wealthy and white elites who are manipulating the government of government to impose a “safe and pure” vision, opposition, opposition and democracy. It is a smart step, and Anderson allows this to be criticized Current threats of iceand FascismThe dangers of capitalism are the criticism of the green nature of American racism and the fear of foreigners.

Meanwhile, the Freedom Fighter Freedom Freedom Group, a symbol of radical media resistance, is re -imagined that 75 French revolutionaries, who are advancing with a more globalized spirit, rebellious with a massive cry, is release as it is uncompromising: “free boundaries! Free options of fear!”

The names of the characters, timelines, or presidential departments in the midst of both “Vineland” and “one battle after the other” do not need to be the same, because the message of both stories remains the same. Anderson told Dicaprio during the Esquire interview: “In other words, for 20 years, I had all these different strings, and in some way, none of them ever came out, because everything that seems to happen politically is always the same.” “Self **, a different year.”

These stories only flirt with politics. They draw a difficult line that is unabated in the desert and tells that there is no neutral side. You are either compatible with the mission of the revolutionaries, combating teeth and nails in order to liberate the persecuted, or that you serve the interests of hell to build the nightmare of America. The risks in this film are life or death, because it is like Pynchon’s novel and the true life in which we live, that it.

“One battle after another” is now in theaters.
