MUST SEE: Ang Lee's Life of Pi (US, 2012) - A literal crouching tiger is merely one of many visual wonders in Ang
Lee's "Life of Pi," a gently transporting work of all-ages
entertainment that melds a harrowing high-seas adventure with a dreamy
meditation on the very nature of storytelling. Summoning the most
advanced digital-filmmaking technology to deliver the most old-fashioned
kind of audience satisfaction, this exquisitely beautiful adaptation of
Yann Martel's castaway saga has a sui generis quality that's never less
than beguiling, even if its fable-like construction and impeccable
artistry come up a bit short in terms of truly gripping, elemental
drama. 2012NYFF. RATING: 8 |
