Milena Velba And Isabella Who?

Balada Triste Trompeta (2010)

civil war suffered by Spain in the thirties is a topic that continues to the surface in many of the artistic manifestations of that country and has experienced a resurgence in film the last decade. But the passions aroused by the struggle that defined modern Spain, usually lead to the balanced representation of little stories to radicalize the positions on the conflict and abandon any attempt at narrative objectivity.

Shameful is the result of Sad Ballad trumpet, the acclaimed new film by English director Álex de la Iglesia, who despite his tremendous experience in the film industry managed to create a tape that is almost impossible make a single compliment.

The film is intended to function as a great metaphor that embodies the conflicts in the post-war Spain in a ménage à troi composed of two clowns and an attractive Acrobat, which will have to choose between the alcoholic clown star of the circus with maintaining a relationship extremely destructive, and the sad clown with which to feel safe but that does not feel any sexual attraction.

Little can do the experienced cast Sad Ballad trumpet, which brings good actors as Santiago Segura and Antonio de la Torre, responsible for both of the medium redeemable moments of the film, with forced and overly anti natural dialogues Álex de la Iglesia plasma in a script that suffers from an obvious desire to indoctrinate the audience and be forced poetry.

Like a film student it were, the church is experimenting with a variety of styles visual, made some worse than others, while retaining a sense of false causes the misuse of computer-animated sets and exaggerated stylized sequences by post digital processing.

To make matters worse, the ridiculous situations that are capable of imagining the Basque director devoid of grace and freshness that could be seen in such films as The Day of the Beast , to give us a humor that is intended to be Ironically, it ends up being as absurd and obvious as the worst Hollywood comedy film, with the disadvantage that Ashton Kutcher is not serious about their stupidity while the Church believes Alex is giving us a movie worthy to compete with the best that was made in 2010.

The metaphorical tales of mushy trumpet Sad Ballad follow one after another without break, giving viewers intimate moments like seeing the sad clown bringing in the mouth, like a hunting dog, partridge Generalissimo Franco after he became a kind of animal because of the madness that caused her unrequited love, or the terrible final battle of the two clowns in the huge cross the Valley of the Fallen, which inexplicably turns into a warehouse for animals the circus.

I say no more. Sad is the result of a film that had created many expectations and not only not met but is also definitely one of the worst films I saw in 2010.
