    Machiavelli Hangman Rocks!
    Copyright © 2005, George Enders

    The film started off in thrust and Perry as the characters used 
    words as swords. Curses flew like bullets and every punchline was 
    a sting, a hit, a dive, a dodge, you name it. The script is at 
    its best and untamable when the room is crowded with four five 
    more characters who fight to get a word in. And it all makes 
    sense when a hundred voices interweave to say the same thing: 
    we’re going to die.
    
    Imagine His Girl Friday with not just Cary Grant and Rosalind 
    Russell throwing words at each other, but a whole lew of people. 
    Indead, Machiavelli Hangman maximizes the humor and the wit of 
    His Girl Friday, the masterpiece of 1940. It’s a throw back to 
    those comedies that made us think and at the same time laugh.
    
    Machiavelli Hangman is the story of George Newman, a loser who 
    can’t seem to get a handle on life and does everything wrong. 
    Interestingly though, and this is the redeeming element about his 
    character is that he somewhat manages to know right from wrong 
    and he often chooses the more righteous path. Without wanting to 
    give too much away, George is caught in a case of mistaken 
    identity and he is forced to do things that number one he 
    couldn’t because he’s such a dork and number two, he wouldn’t 
    want to because he’s such a moralist. 
    
    What makes this movie into such an exhilarating ride is how the 
    story is told. It’s nothing like you’ve ever seen before. Memento 
    took the movie and presented it backwards so that we would know 
    the result before the cause. In this case, we find out what the 
    result is, then the cause, then the alternative cause and then 
    the real cause. Rashomon did it in a similar way by having the 
    characters flashback to different interpretations of the same 
    story. In this case, there is only one version of the story but 
    we as an audience chose to see one thing instead of another 
    because of our preprogrammed understanding of Hollywood 
    conventions.
    
    Shervin Youssefian who is the writer and director of the film 
    creates a situation where everything seems to be pointing at one 
    possible result and we only follow the guidelines to figure out 
    for ourselves what is not shown. Later on, as the scene is played 
    again, the surprising and somewhat embarrassing factor comes into
    play when the audience realizes that it’s been fooled the whole 
    time. The film is like the Sixth Sense, but what that film did 
    only at the end, Machiavelli Hangman does throughout the whole 
    film.
    
    The acting is superb and the directing is first rate. Machiavelli 
    Hangman is a film that will be cherished and enjoyed for a long 
    time to come and will only get better with every viewing.
