Review of Radio (2003) by Marcos J — 08 Jan 2017

I can not understand so many people with negative reviews.

It is full of technical experts in dramaturgy and specialists and engineers of optics, film and sound.

They forget the origins of cinema.

Cinema or film is not just several photos taken in sequence to capture the world around us in various static squares.

The cinematographic art is the extension of another art, that is confused with the own history of the humanity.

Storytellers have existed since when our ancestors barely babbled some simple phonemes to signify what surrounded them beyond themselves.

And this movie is basically this. Telling a story that happened sometime, somewhere, involving some people, regardless of whether it's real or fictional.

And this story is told with a goal in mind other than just reporting facts that have occurred, real or not.

And this goal is only achieved if people really care about the people and facts that have occurred in history, to the point of making them realize that this is applicable in their own lives.

And to really care only for feelings expressed clearly to get us involved with this story, to laugh and cry together, to really feel the moments of the most blissful happiness and the most intense pain.

And if you do not understand this, then stick with this stupid technical vision, because the real value few will really understand.
