PENDENTE: Rubrica su Cinema, letteratura, fumetto ed esperienze culturaliIncubi Americani: Anche gli uccelli uccidono (In Memoriam: Shelley Duvall)Benvenuti in America. La terra delle opportunità. Una nazione che dietro la sua copertina luminosa e trionfante, c'è tanta oscurità.
Il Cinema ha saputo mostrare il lato più tetro e "scomodo" degli USA con film provocatori, lugubri e talvolta crudi. Perché quindi non riscoprirli?
Per ricordare la carissima di Shelley Duvall e anche il suo mentore Robert Altman, ecco a voi il surreale e graffiante "Anche gli uccelli uccidono". Un ritratto impietoso, assurdo e a tratti demenziale dell'America prossima agli anni '70 e poca propensa a un cambiamento. O anche solo al progresso.2024-07-1440 min
