Rather miraculously, this is a picture sounds that succeeds in painlessly educating its viewers about global politics and economics while it describes contemporary Africa with freshness and clarity. A barrel of laughs, this aint. But its a fearless high-wire act, grim and witty, confrontational and self-mocking. Its message may be dire, but Bamako is a feat of intellectual and cinematic daring that will leave your brain buzzing.
I think that you have give a great Credit man Sissako for entertainingly blending serious international issues with the daily comings and goings of village life. A bit more Glover wouldn't have hurt - but you can't have everything. |
