The Interpreter by x&al Danzabel

dear reading minds out there...somewhere...

12A is the code for the age limit and i by far xceed that - being more than 24.3oo on this .... planet of ours!

The film THE INTERPRETER is directed by Sydney
Pollack. The film is a conspiracy thriller. The story
line is assassination. The leading actress is nicole
kidman who is the interpreter listening to speeches
and whisperings and reeling these out into the other
language - here a special African language. Sean Penn
is the government agent investigating and thinking and
acting.

Nicole Kidman is blond and cool and thin and water
eyed and acts intelligent and vulnerable and quite
capable of pondering hate and is out for revenge -
quite a cocktail of emotions. Sean Fenn does his
American best with furrowed front head and droopy dog
eyes looking too soft for a killing agent. And all
over the film there is too much action with dark skin
villains from any age group - tribe troubles - thirst
for revenge - but the message of the film is
...killing is such an easy game for all colours of
skins.

The role of the UN institution is quite under
discussion in our days of corruption and investigation
of the highup dignitaries - greed which is the seed of
paradise is rampant then - now and ever - there are
hints and closeups of tenderness not developing into
love however - hate is the better vehicle - keeps the
movie going anyway -

the prince hamlet of william shakespeare is far away
but his monologue comes to mind... to be or not to be
that is the question . The message of Mr Sydney
Pollack is quite clearly not about compassion! Well,
i do not need a second helping of that film ...
