Review of The Walk (2015) by Martin B — 18 Nov 2015
What a shame that this magnificent movie will be little noted, nor long remembered. It deserves so much better than its inevitable fate to be forgotten. The marketing was non-existent, but the movie was grandly exhilarating in both overall terms, and down to the nitty-gritty details.
The New Yawk authenticity is beautiful and detailed, and I remember it from my youth well. The visual effects, and the memories they induce, are thrilling, accurate, flawless, and sensational. The film is more than just a story of a madcap caper and adventure, it is also a tribute to troubadourship, to Paris, to New York, to the majestic Twin Towers - the glory they were! - to being a dreamer.
It will be forgotten, around awards time as well, but I will not let it slip. It was an immersive, electric, intoxicating joie de vivre experience excepcional!
