Review of Adam Resurrected (2008) by Kálmán N — 27 Sep 2013
A little piece of the greater horror telling us more about the depths of a human soul than so many of the award winning Holocaust films that deal more with the tragedy visible than with the one inside those who survived.
A wonderful performance by Goldbum if not the best of his career so far. A man with heart of a child who was forced to take responsibility at the darkest hour and refuses to take any more of it when he fails has to realize that he has grown up and he can not live in constant grief or at least has to put it aside and try to leave it behind if he wants to live.
He seems to lose this fight when finally the pain of others does the miracle. Some say the film is esoteriric or nihilist but this could only be the opinion of those who never discovered the beauty of life or forgot how empty can life be sometimes, not to mention those critics who just simply to lazy or stupid to understand that there are things beyond their wildest imagination or just beyond their armchair and laptop.
