  • Review of Rogue One: a Star Wars Story
    DVD reviews Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (Gareth Edwards US 2016). Walt Disney Studios 2017. Region 1. 2.39:1 widescreen. US$23. Sean Guynes-Vishniac After the release of Revenge of the Sith (Lucas US 2005), the third film in the Star Wars prequel trilogy in 2005, George Lucas and Lucasfilm had no plans to add further feature films to the multi-billion-dollar franchise. This was in part because fans of the original Star Wars trilogy (1977–83) hated the prequels, and because Lucas was now interested in television, starting with the animated series The Clone Wars (2008–14, 2019). When Disney bought Lucasfilm, they announced a new trilogy extending the saga of the Skywalker family, and several standalone non-saga ‘anthology’ films to fill narrative gaps in the universe; Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is the first of these anthology films. Its position raises important questions about the contemporary state of the transmedia sf franchise, while its narrative looks at the limits and possibilities of sf blockbusters’ political work. To provide an easy entry into the franchise’s storyworld, Rogue One offers a cast of new characters that fit (and slightly modify) well-known franchise types: protagonist Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), for example, pairs the scruffiness of Han Solo with the paternal drama of Luke Skywalker; Chirrut Îmwe (Donnie Yen) takes on the Jedi mystique and mentor role of Obi-Wan Kenobi; K-2SO (Alan Tudyk) is the non-human, comedy-relief sidekick, a cynical update of C-3PO. Cassian Andor (Diego Luna), however, stands out thematically, mixing the scoundrel qualities of Solo with the risky charm of Lando Calrissian, and bringing a moral ambiguity to the normally black-and-white world of Jedi and Sith; perhaps these qualities have led to Andor’s being named as the protagonist of one of the upcoming Star Wars series on the new streaming service Disney+.

  • Operación Final – Operation Finale
    DERECHO Y CULTURA OPERACIÓN FINAL – OPERATION FINALE. Por: Juan Sebastián Murthe Cárdenas. Película estadounidense del año 2018. Dirigida por Chris Weitz. Producida por Fred Berger, Oscar Isaac, Brian Kavanaugh Jones y Jason Spire, con guion escrito por Matthew Orton. Protagonizada por el actor Oscar Isaac, junto con Ben Kingsley, Mélanie Laurent, Lior Raz, Nick Croll, entre otros. 68 A menudo se dice, que un libro no debe ser juzgado por su portada, pues bien esta es una de esas ocasiones en que ese refrán se puede predicar también de algunas películas. A lo largo del último cuarto del siglo XX y lo trascurrido del siglo XXI, uno de los puntos clave del séptimo arte, ha sido el de realizar filmes basados en hechos reales, sobretodo de eventos históricos de gran calibre como las guerras mundiales, unos con mayor éxito y fidelidad histórica que otros. En el marco de este uso histórico en la Revista Iter Ad Veritatem, ISSN 1909-9843 / Enero - Diciembre 2020, Vol. 18 DERECHO Y CULTURA filmografía, llega esta película, que básicamente se ambienta en la década inmediatamente posterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial y los tan conocidos Juicios de Núremberg donde fueron condenadas varias piezas importantes del movimiento Nazi alemán; narra la historia de cómo algunos miembros del cuerpo de inteligencia de Israel, llevaron a cabo en territorio argentino la captura del líder nazi Adolf Eichmann, quien se refugiara en dicho país al terminar la guerra, para evitar ir a juicio por la comisión de diferentes crímenes. Esta, en la opinión de este servidor, no es una película más de tipo cliché sobre el movimiento nazi, goza de un trasfondo importante en materia de Derecho Penal y Derecho Internacional, este último sobre todo en lo referente a la autonomía y soberanía de los Estados, que concomitantemente implica la no intromisión en su territorio sin fines legalmente autorizados o sin el cumplimiento de los protocolos legalmente establecidos.

THE MOSAIC MONTHLY ESSAY • EPISODE 2 June: The Truth of the Capture of Adolf Eichmann 1x 00:00|60:58 Sixty years ago last month, on the evening of May 23, 1960, the Israeli prime minister David Ben-Gurion made a brief but dramatic announcement to a hastily-summoned session of the Knesset in Jerusalem: A short time ago, Israeli security services found one of the greatest of the Nazi war criminals, Adolf Eichmann, who was responsible, together with the Nazi leaders, for what they called “the final solution” of the Jewish question, that is, the extermination of six million of the Jews of Europe. Eichmann is already under arrest in Israel and will shortly be placed on trial in Israel under the terms of the law for the trial of Nazis and their collaborators. In the cabinet meeting immediately preceding this announcement, Ben-Gurion’s ministers had expressed their astonishment and curiosity.

  • Duplicity (2009) Julia Roberts E Clive Owen Sono Spie Amanti in Una "Commedia Svitata" Ad Alta Concentrazione Alcolica
    Duplicity (2009) Julia Roberts e Clive Owen sono spie amanti in una "commedia svitata" ad alta concentrazione alcolica. Un film di Tony Gilroy con Julia Roberts, Clive Owen, Paul Giamatti, Tom Wilkinson, Wayne Duvall, Dan Daily, Lisa Roberts Gillan, David Shumbris, Rick Worthy, Oleg Stefan. Genere Thriller durata 129 minuti. Produzione USA 2009. Uscita nelle sale: venerdì 10 aprile 2009 Il film racconta la storia di due spie industriali (nonché ex amanti) che si ritrovano ad essere rivali sul lavoro. Marzia Gandolfi - www.mymovies.it Claire Stenwick è un'avvenente agente della CIA con licenza di sedurre, Ray Koval è un agente dei servizi segreti britannici sedotto (drogato e gabbato) dal fascino della concorrenza. A New York, cinque anni dopo, Claire e Ray si ritrovano loro malgrado occupati per la stessa multinazionale, che vorrebbe entrare in possesso della formula di un prodotto rivoluzionario in anticipo sull'azienda rivale. Innamorati con riserva, diffidenti per mestiere, i due amanti depongono le armi, praticano l'amore, bevono champagne, bruciano di passione e pianificano di imbrogliare i magnati delle industrie concorrenti. Tra Dubai e Miami, tra Cleveland e Roma, tra salti temporali e sentimenti senza fine, Claire e Ray getteranno la maschera e berranno alla salute di una sfida inaugurata con un Margarita e finita "in bollicine". Già dal titolo, 'Duplicity' esplicita la sua doppia natura, la sua appartenenza a regimi discorsivi diversi che cercano di trovare una loro complementarietà. Da un lato l'inequivocabile 'spy story', dall'altro la 'screwball comedy', ovvero la "commedia svitata" del desiderio che si consuma in un'attesa carica di sfide, brividi, azioni e conversazioni seduttive e continuamente rilanciate.
