Solidrariol Am I Missing Something?
Lancoor A very feeble attempt at affirmatie action
Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
Andres-Camara I think it's one of the things that makes this movie not come. The director insists on leaving the character alone, only the camera is always too far away. I think he does it to leave Gere alone on the street and see how the people around him react, but he does not realize that really, everyone who walks by his side walks without paying attention to anyone, not just him, but nobody. The movie takes a long time to start. We see him doing the same thing over and over again, always at a distance and we do not empathize. We do not know anything about him. Then it starts and you only see that he complains about everything, even when he can have a help and be able to pull up complains. Yes, nobody deserves to be like this, but if they try to help you, thank them and take them. We almost got to know more other characters than him.Even so, the actors are great. I find it curious to see from time to time how Richard is and how he escapes that walk of person with a lot of class and style, I have always thought that he was one of the actors with the most cinema style. Although it tries to walk like collapsed but sometimes it can not avoid it and they escape to him.I do not like photography, I do not think you have to make a bad photograph to talk about the street. It would have to be cold because of the situation but not insipid.I am very pleased that you have done that haircut with piercing and that you see the scar. If I had it long I understand that this bad cut but being short why?The director does not know how boring it is. If we had known why it is there and how it happens in a more enjoyable way, the film would have won. Only knows how to place the camera at a distance and only manages to leave you at a distance from the character. It makes a long film, too long and the end, which for me is not closed, it will serve him, not me.I would not see her again
filton A really very good evocation of what being on the streets must be like. The film drags and meanders - just as Richard Gere's character does. The aesthetic is very distinctive - the city's bustle by day and neon glare by night as a backdrop to the drab plight of the scruffy, direction-less Gere, while some of the framing is absolutely exquisite.I do think that Gere's good looks and charisma as an actor shine through a little too boldly - someone like John C. Reilly, for example, might have been a better choice for the main role - and there's the feeling that the ending, while heart-warming, might be a bit of a cop-out. But all in all, it's a very involving, eye-opening study.
earthinspace-1 Brain slog happens out there. A well-made film shows and suggests with scenes that slip into the next like a dream, yet with all the gritty truth of doing what you have to do to cross the street without getting knocked over. The shelters I remember were different and still, this film captured them.Not wanting to say a lot of words right now. A lot of what's good in the film is what they don't say. There is silence for time to grok and drink in all the other stimuli, and there are toned-down dramatic pauses, as between notes of music.In response to some of the other comments -- You pegged it with some real writing in those comments & this film with references to mind-fog that's related to hunger, and the ambiance of being homeless all day and all night -- these are shown, felt, and quickly inhaled by the audience member who tunes in closely. There is a lot of there, there.
zadkine A thoughtful, deeply moving study of homelessness in urban America, specifically, what it's like to be homeless in New York City. "Time Out of Mind" is a maddening film. It fits none of the expected narrative templates that we've come to expect from a mainstream movie, and because of its seemingly pointless, aimless plot - nothing that matters of any consequence happens to anyone, and the main character, George, appears dazed, lost in every sense of the word - I gave up on it...then decided to keep watching. I finished the movie and felt I had seen something profound, profoundly disturbing about the indifference we show those at the margins, the "failures". It's not an easy film to watch. I think that's the point. This is a subject that we all would prefer to turn away from. When homeless, nobody cares. Virginia Woolf said this about Charles Dickens, "We remodel our psychological geography when we read Dickens; we forget that we have ever felt the delights of solitude or observed with wonder the intricate emotions of our friends, or luxuriated in the beauty of nature." This film has re-shaped my "psychological geography" when it comes to NYC. Maybe Woody Allen heard Gershwin while wandering Manhattan. I now hear the distracting noise - the intrusive cellphones, the traffic, all of it - a fierce onslaught that can't be kept at bay. The sound design is relentless and off-putting. And it's true to life. I've been visiting NYC for years, I was there in December. It has never been louder or more annoying. So for George, cursed to live on the street, there is no peace and quiet. Ever. The performances are brilliant, all of them. Gere and Kyra Sedgwick are mesmerizing. And top honors should go to Oren Moverman. What an artist. He wrote another movie this year about the fragility of the mind, about the losing of one's mind, "Love & Mercy". Two fantastic, soul-exploring movies in one year by Oren Moverman. A remarkable achievement.
