Land and people: "look of evil" (The Daisy Chain) The couple Martha and Thomas pulls out of London in that region of Ireland, grew up in St. Thomas. After the two have lost a child, Martha is now pregnant again. The area is a neglected, unpopular kid around, called Daisy, that Martha receives after the fiery death of his parents. And who will now always stop to question this relationship between the woman and the girl, or suffer an ugly fate.
Irish film of 2008, just published in Germany. Daisy is being addressed as a changeling, by means of the 'evil eye' all the way from grants, which could be for his own life to danger. Director Aisling Walsh has good actors are available, a trendy area, a regular writer in and of itself. Thus, it can begin, however little, and we tended to stay with ninety minutes of boredom. If you film in such a landscape, it is inevitable that comes out now and then a phenomenal record in which you want to go for a walk. An archaic land with superstitious, weathered men scattered, living in small cottages. The true protagonists are coastal, meadows, rocks, roads, sheep, and the visual design relation between (young) people and (immeasurable) landscape. An additional point, the film for the presence of Samantha Morton. That was it but so far too. This all seems like an academy graduation. Will be a bit sparse Scandinavian art film, a bit of social and psychological drama and a bit of horror. sell him to necessarily be the latter, will lead again to the fact that the gentle horror fan hates him, and one star ratings will cough up. Above all, missing a notable drama, could tear down the notorious one of the passing ripple and make the thousands of times told creepy stuff of traumatized mother would more than some amateurish staged Irish existentialism. After all: The fact that there are few horror set pieces, gets the fantastic Metaphor very much - pushing clear.
The shekel is a genuine issue of cheap € video. The image of the Blu-ray to DVD is at best level, if at all. The sound track is missing, there is only the synchronization.
