GRADE: A
A spectacular directorial debut from commercial filmmaker
Shervin Youssefian. The dialogue certainly looked
great on paper but the incredible performances really bring
it home in Machiavelli Hangman. With a supersonic rhythm, the
scenes in this low-budget stunner will take your breath away.
How it all came about may be a surprise to most of you. The
script was penned by Youssefian himself within less than three
days after facing the brutal loss of a family member. Within days
of completing the script, Youssefian immediately sent it over to
Disney where Artin Nazarian picked it up and read the script
within less than an hour "it was the fastest I had gotten through
a script in all my years of working at the company. The concept
was absolutely brilliant." On that note, Nazarian called
Youssefian and within a year, the project was on the same path as
Reservoir Dogs.
The film festivals open the curtain on the torrid images of this
thriller. From the very first scene, the director hooks our
interest without having to adhere to gratuitous nudity or
violence.
It is the comic story of a comic George Newman who finds himself
in the least comic of misunderstandings. He is mistaken for a
killer and the mob bosses want him to kill the big man’s wife.
Without having any social aptitude or general savoir-faire,
George will push and pull and create the biggest mess ever pulled
off on film.
Lit with magic, directed with mastery, the real star of the film
is Sara. The young equally naïve wife whom everyone seems to want
to kill. She has a certain nonchalant quality about her, a
protective star that shines above her and we know that no matter
what she may do, she will be protected because of her innocence
and soft beauty.
The rest of the cast, including Christine Cowden as Lillian, is
absolutely superb. While the film doesn’t possess the grand
chiseled look of 35mm, it does however come extremely close with
the same HD used to shoot Collateral or Revenge of the Sith. It’s
amazing what a great difference digital intermediate transfers
can do to the look of a film.
Machiavelli Hangman is the latest in a chain of highly successful
independent films like Open Water, Primer, Napoleon Dynamite that
have taken a single genre and ran with it. Machiavelli Hangman
doesn’t stop at just being a hilarious comedy; it also spooks
the living daylights out you. And until the very end, it keeps
you guessing, blurring the paths that we thought we had already
crossed.
