Review of Che: Part One (2008) by Anthony Lane for The New Yorker — 28 Jun 2014
It would be comforting, and tidy, to suggest that the director had waited all his life for the chance to make this film, as if it meant everything to him; yet I still have no idea what truly quickens his heart, and at some level, for all the movie’s narrative momentum, Che retains the air of a study exercise--of an interest brilliantly explored.
How else to explain one's total flatness of feeling at the climax of each movie?
