The Man Who Wasn't There (2001)

[byneddiedingo]

Katherine Borowitz in The Man Who Wasn't There (Joel Coen and Ethan Coen, 2001) Cast: Billy Bob Thornton, Frances McDormand, Michael Badalucco, James Gandolfini, Katherine Borowitz, Jon Polito, Tony Shalhoub, Scarlett Johansson, Richard Jenkins. Screenplay: Joel Coen and Ethan Coen. Cinematography: Roger Deakins. Production design: Dennis Gassner. Music: Carter Burwell. The Man Who Wasn't There is a bit like a Twilight Zone episode written by James M. Cain. A barber (Billy Bob Thornton) works in a shop owned by his wife's brother (Michael Badalucco). She (Frances McDormand) has been unfaithful to him with her boss (James Gandolfini), so when a get-rich scheme is proposed to him, the barber tries to blackmail his wife's lover. Nothing goes quite right, however, and after calamity succeeds calamity, the barber is presented with what appears to be a solution to his problems. It comes, however, from a UFO that hovers overhead, and he rejects it. Perhaps only Joel and Ethan Coen could have accomplished this fusion of film noir and sci-fi with quite the success they achieve, thanks largely to a superb cast, the extraordinary black-and-white cinematography of Roger Deakins, and a score by Carter Burwell that blends unobtrusively with some melancholy-meditative excerpts from Beethoven's piano sonatas.

Billy Bob Thornton is 'The Man Who Wasn't There' on Criterion Channel

Joel Coen shared the Best Director prize at Cannes with David Lynch for The Man Who Wasn’t There (2001), a devious melodrama of adultery, embezzlement, blackmail, and murder. That darkly comic pulp story, however, is secondary to the crumbled dreams and mechanical lives of its deadened characters, a whisper to a scream tale of madness, repression, and soul-suffocating dislocation in 1950s small…

ILLUMINATA

New York im frühen 20. Jahrhundert: Auf der Bühne des Astergourd-Theaters proben der unbekannte Autor Tuccio (John Turturro) und seine Frau Rachel (Katherine Borowitz), gefeierter Star und Kassenmagnet des Ensembles, einen Dialog aus seinem noch unvollendeten Stück "Illuminata". Das Drama ist mehr als nur Fiktion - es spiegelt die persönliche Geschichte von Tuccio und Rachel, die sich seit vielen Jahren kennen und doch ihre Liebe immer wieder hinterfragen.

Die beiden Theaterbesitzer Astergourd (Beverly D'Angelo) und Pallenchino (Donal McCann) sind von diesem Drama nicht begeistert: Das Stück hat ihrer Meinung nach keinen wirkungsvollen Schluss, und außerdem ist sein Autor ein Nobody. Als der junge Akteur Piro (Matthew Sussman) während einer Vorstellung von "Cavalleria Rusticana" ohnmächtig zusammenbricht, tritt Tuccio beherzt vor den gefallenen Vorhang, um dem Publikum "Illuminata" anzukündigen. Unter Zugzwang gesetzt, stimmen die Theaterbesitzer einer Aufführung zu, doch als der affektierte und einflussreiche Kritiker Umberto Bevalaqua (Christopher Walken) einen Verriss schreibt, wird Tuccios Stück umgehend abgesetzt. Kritik und Publikum sollen mit Ibsens "Nora" besänftigt werden.

Inzwischen fühlt das Ensemble ebenso wie Rachel, dass "Illuminata" ein Erfolg werden könnte. Während der hübsche Mime Marco (Bill Irwin) den homosexuellen Kritikerpapst Bevalaqua zur Sichtung einer zweiten Vorstellung "überredet", setzt Rachel die Theaterbesitzer unter Druck: Sie wird Ibsen nur spielen, wenn auch Tuccios Drama eine zweite Chance erhält. Endlich hebt sich der Vorhang für ein Stück, dessen Verwicklungen der amüsierte und verblüffte Zuschauer eigentlich schon die ganze Zeit über beiwohnt ...

Der Film basiert auf einem Bühnenstück, das Brandon Cole nach seinen Erfahrungen bei der Arbeit an John Turturros gefeiertem Debüt "Mac" (1992) verfasst hatte. quelle

So erinnert, daß die ganze Welt doch eine Bühne sei, passte John Turturros schöner, und nur ein bisschen absurder Film über das nötige emotionale und tatsächliche Chaos für angemessenen Theaterzauber, hervorragend.

Katherine Borowitz and John Turturro in Illuminata (John Turturro, 1998)

Cast: John Turturro, Katherine Borowitz, Susan Sarandon, Christopher Walken, Beverly D'Angelo, Rufus Sewell, Georgina Cates, Ben Gazzara, Bill Irwin, Donal McCann, Aida Turturro, Leo Bassi. Screenplay: Brandon Cole, John Turturro, based on a play by Cole. Cinematography: Harris Savides. Production design: Robin Standefer. Film editing: Michael Berenbaum. Music: Arnold Black, William Bolcom.

Illuminata is poetic, witty, and beautifully filmed, designed, and acted. But it's also a little twee, which means it misses the mark for a lot of viewers. It's a tale of the theater, which means it comes with one strike against it already: Movies about the stage inevitably fail to capture what's most important about theater, the quality of being live. The theater in question is a small New York repertory company in 1905, a time and place when the stage and actors were most alive, before they became canned by radio, movies, and television. Almost all of the characters have Europeanish names, not because they're immigrants but because the film has a commedia dell'arte quality to it and a sense of playing to the rafters. John Turturro is the playwright Tuccio, married to the actress Rachel (Katherine Borowitz), but tempted by the diva Celimene (Susan Sarandon). His nemesis is the theater critic Bevalaqua (Christopher Walken), and the company includes a Beppo (Leo Bassi), a Dominique (Rufus Sewell), a Marta (Aida Turturro), a Flavio  (Ben Gazzara), and a Marco (Bill Irwin). The theater is owned by the Astergourds (Beverly D'Angelo and Donal McCann). Everyone in the cast seems to be sleeping with everyone else, or at least trying to. Bevalaqua, for example, tries to seduce Marco, the occasion for much clowning by Walken and Irwin. As noted, it's not for all tastes: It has a 46% rating on the Tomatometer. But I found it sweet and amusing, and I don't get much sweetness and amusement from movies these days.
