Wild Tales (2014)
"Relatos salvajes" (original title) | Comedy, Drama, Thriller
Six short stories involving distressed people.
It's a compilations of 6 tales, but they don't have the same type of length, humor or darkness. Each one is unique.
1) Airplane tale: fantastic, hilarating and surrealistic story to open the series.
2) Coffee shop tale: shorter, but dark and makes you wonder what's "freedom" for some people.
3) Road tale: excellent. A really LOT of violence and a little bit of humor makes this one of the best tales in the movie.
4) Human limit tale: a man that's having a couple of really bad days explode when he runs out of patiente. Great acting.
5) Accident tale: 90% darkness. And the fact that could be a very possible story makes it even darker. Shocking finale.
6) Wedding tale: almost impossible to qualify. Hilarious for the most part, but at the end, it will make you wonder to whom you are spending your whole life with.
The movie is actually 6 short films, all related by brutal violence motivated by different situations. Family. Society. Government. It works very well like that, lasting over 120 minutes that go by quickly. It feels very fluid. Szifrón's eye is very precise. You can tell everything was very well thought. I wouldn't say this is a philosophical film, but it is clever entertainment, that makes you think if this wild tales are actually that wild... Even though this stories are taken to the extreme, everything feels somehow possible when you look back.
Darkly humorous.
