"The Disappearance of Joseph Bengal" Comment: A Disgusting Nazi Biopic

Throughout the entire impressive production and increasingly intense 135 minutes The disappearance of Joseph Meneglerthe same question keeps thinking: Why do I need to look at this?

Of course, for those curious, how the infamous Auschwitz concentration camp doctor (aka "The Angel of Death") sees his last decades of life in various countries in South America, changing houses and identities, agriculture, businesses, cases, yes, and occasionally getting the occasional Hambabwe, the movie answers a lot. But there is no interest in historical fantasy for those who are not the Finalist of the Third Reich, and this exercise over intellectual can be unbearable, besides embellishing Monger's reputation for ignorance - although the whole thing is good.

Joseph Mongley's Missing

Bottom line Bad doctor.

Place: Cannes Film Festival (Premiere of Cannes)
Throw: August Diehl, Max Bretschneider, Dana Herfurth, Friederike Becht, Mirco Kreibich, David Ruland, Annamaria Lang, Tilo Werner
Director, Screenwriter: Kirill Serebrennikov, according to the book by Olivier Guez
2 hours 15 minutes

Born in Russia, Serebrennikov is a talented auteur with enough style to showcase his directorial ribs with six eclectic features produced since 2016. He easily jumped between types and flicked from a scruffy rock'n'Roll (Leto)Petrov's flu), from the period of contemplation (Tchaikovsky's wife) to a politically mysterious man's continental jump story (Lidonov: Eddie's Folk).

In Russia's controversial hosted film Chameleon, Serebrenickov is difficult to fix. Perhaps the latter's qualities attracted him into the fictional biography of French writer Olivier Guez in 2017 to imagine the life of Mengele after World War II, when he kept escaping from local authorities or possibly kidnapped by Mossad. Like its unhealthy protagonist, the film and Vladislav Opelyants’ tour camera, shot in gorgeous high contrast black and white – always on the move, creating an immersive aesthetic experience with nothing.

To be commendable, SerbrennikovA hidden life) Sometimes a firm performance bordering on comics, becoming a lovely protagonist. For a man known for torture, murder and conducting ugly experiments of countless Jews, there is no redemption for men known as part of a group of medical services that oversee Auschwitz-Birkenau.

We never show sympathy for the fugitive of disgust, regardless of whether he attempted (albeit reluctantly) to reconcile with his son Rolf (Max Bretschneider), who visited him in St. Paul in 1977, hoping to finally get to know his long-time father. Nor will we shed tears when he was forced to flee the farm protected by the Hungarian couple (Annamaria Lang, Tilo Werner) who publicly despised him. We certainly don't feel frustrated when his Brazilian housekeeper provides him with a perfect massage during his dying days.

look Joseph Mongley's Missing There is no real feeling, no real feeling. A sequence that can cause some other emotions is also the most problematic in the film: midway through the narrative, the screen suddenly turns into color, and we return to Auschwitz to watch some of the dirty deeds of doctors. Lush classical music, the opposite of all the atrocities we witness, is a moment of pure Holocaust propaganda that catches our heartstrings as we provide incredible pieces of evil and sharp Gore. Unlike Jonathan Glazer Areas of interestthis kind of scene goes far beyond the framework, Serebrennikov decides to show us the absolute worst case of Mengele, which is morally suspicious and vulgar in the movie. At best, this makes us hate the Nazis even more.

The story of the post-war thriller is a thriller of the story, which has changed between the time period (from the mid-1950s to the late 1970s, in the 2023 preface) and the country (Germany, Argentina, Argentina, Brazil, Brazil) as Monger continues to make those who try to bring him to justice and to the mating, which is a constant effort. He also received support from his wealthy German family, who was unapologetic for what happened during the war and refused to admit his crimes.

“You did your duty and you did nothing wrong,” they kept reminding him. Until the painful doomsday, it was a motto Motto Mento who killed natural deaths that countless victims never caused. And, he seems to have lived a good life for the most part, marrying his second wife (Friederike Becht), a beautiful private ceremony captured by the director solo, camera honing on a wedding cake topped off by a cute little Nazi flag. Otherwise frolick with his first wife (Dana Herfurth) and then have a rough sexual relationship with her until he orgasm, almost breaking the bed they were doing. It is good for doctors and harmful to us.

If Serebrennikov might have said anything in this nihilistic Nazi fantasy, it is that people like Menger end up escaping retribution by helping others, either being attracted to the men of his commanding meaning or being loyal to the Third Reich after the war ended. At the time of the rise of fascism around the world Joseph Mongley's Missing Stick to the fact that evil remains because some of us make it happen. This is the only possible gain in a movie, giving little reason to live this evil on screen.
