Review of Colossal Youth (2006) by Pierre-Yves D — 02 Mar 2008
I hope this and all of Pedro Costa's movies someday make it to DVD in the U.S. I was fortunate to see five of them at the Dryden Theatre in Rochester. I have never seen anything like them -- in each, the entire narrative formula is turned on its head.
Every important thing that happens seems to happen off-screen, leaving us with a series of gorgeously composed, darkly lit, interconnected preludes and aftermaths. Colossal Youth is the best of them, but they are all great.
