Man tied to a bedpost surrounded with five gunmen. At first
sight, you may think that this is your usual thriller but then
you realize something is slightly odd. The gunmen are faceless.
As the camera pushes its way into an extreme close-up of the
prisoner, the image then cuts to a scene outside of the room that
took place earlier in the week. What is so stunning about this
opening is that the audience realizes there has been a shift in
time and space until it's too late.
Writer-director Shervin Youssefian plays with this flash-back
tool so brilliantly that audiences are floored at how many
times a director can surprise them with a variation of the same
technique. Youssefian has achieved such a remarkable treat in
Machiavelli Hangman that it equals Hitchcock's much duplicated
track-back-zoom in technique that he created for Vertigo.
Like previous films that indulge in that flashback style like
Pulp Fiction or Memento, Machiavelli Hangman jumps back and
forth between Monday and Tuesday, but it does it so seamlessly
that it all feels like it's taking place within a continuous day.
Machiavelli Hangman tells the story of George Newman who is a
shoe shiner and is mistaken for an assassin. After a brilliant
first half, we follow George as he tries to get himself out of
this terrible (but extremely amusing) predicament. Unfortunately,
he only makes matters worse because he gives in to his greed and
pride.
Machiavelli Hangman is a story of redemption, not for the things
that you may have done, but those things that you haven't. It
has such a strong inspirational theme that goes along with the
impressive narrative that you want to jump out of your seat and
hug the person sitting next to you.
Not since watching Forrest Gump, did I feel so completely moved
by a film that as soon as I stepped out of the theatre, did I
want to do something more with my life.
This film is reminiscent of the films of Alain Resnais, the
French Wave auteur, who made such films as Mon Uncle D'Amerique,
Last Year in Marienbad, and countless of other films that play
with time.
Many already predict that Machiavelli Hangman will be one of
the most successful films of the year and although I had my
suspicions about that considering its low-budget, after seeing
the film, I am completely convinced that it will absolutely win
over audiences worldwide.
