REVIEW OF THE MOVIE THE HAND OF GOD
At the beginning of the review of the movie The Hand of God, it must be said that it is known that creativity in formulating ideas that are suitable for cinematic narration is not limited to reaching the limits of imagination and searching for new and different only, some may wish to return to its origin and draw inspiration from personal situations and events Affecting the psychological, human and emotional aspects, such as the stages of childhood or adolescence, or during the periods that contributed to the birth of some desires to do a certain thing that satisfies him to a large extent.
prominent names that established their name and gained great fame and appreciation at the present time is the late Italian director “Federico Fellini”, who presented his famous 1973 movie Amarcord, in which he dealt in a realistic framework his teenage period, and it turned out to be a successful theme. It later resonated with audiences and at the Academy, which awarded the work the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
build his films based on inspirations from previous works and derive the personalities of its artists in terms of ideas, artistic visions, directing, etc., we will find this in the movie “The Hand of God”, the latest work of the well-known Italian director “Paolo Sorrentino” shown Currently on the “Netflix” platform, he was greatly influenced by Fellini and the way he worked in cinema in the fifties and sixties until he passed away.
As the work is derived from the adolescence that “Sorrentino” lived in as a child in the southern city of “Naples” in 1980, during which he was exposed to many social paradoxes, and psychological difficulties that amounted to sadness and wailing, and in return he absorbed the fact that perhaps that pain Which does not bear the beginning of the path of creativity and uniqueness in a field that will be the way to make a difference in life and perhaps achieve fame and success as it is known by “Sorrentino” at the present time
The events of the movie “The Hand of God” revolve around “Fabito”, a young man who is trying hard to find his psychological peace in the midst of the difficulties he finds in his life and the sadness and frustration that afflicted him for a period of time after he was rescued indirectly by the famous football player and star of the Argentine club “Napoli” "Diego Armando Maradona".
The Hand of God movie review
The scenario of the movie “The Hand of God” can be considered as divided into two equal chapters, the first through which we get to know “Fabito” and his family’s surroundings and the people who know him, and the other stems from a specific transformation with which we see “Fabito” revealing what is inside him and explicitly declaring it until he reaches the moment that will make a big difference. In his life, and that method required an ascending rhythm of events, “Sorrentino” succeeded in applying it similar to his memories and the life he lived with the same perception and sequence
By comparing the two halves of the movie “The Hand of God” with each other, we find that the second is stronger on the dramatic level and effective on the emotional level, and through it, it is completely easy to sympathize with the “Fabito” character and feel the psychological fragmentation he suffers from, not only that, but through distinct scenes at the juncture. The last of the movie, The Hand of God, we get to know through it or through “Fabito” one of the most important defining moment in the life of “Paolo Sorrentino”, which awakened his artistic sense and made him love and professionalize the film industry
that were in the middle of it when “Fabito” is exposed to the most difficult moment in his life, a reflection of that manifested in an exemplary performance by the young actor “Filippo Scotti”, who was distinguished by his emotional, honest and influential improvisation due to the sensitivity of the situation that will pass Everyone has the nature of circumstances and fate, and what increases the aesthetics of the movie The Hand of God is that, as mentioned earlier, the impulse is generated to transform into a more mature person, more focused on achieving goals, and more willing to defeat sorrows and overcome them with maturity of the mind and safety of the soul, which raises its negative energy
characters and gives them the appropriate moments that can add to the film dimensions that are not loaded with drama like the rest of its main events, and also facilitate attachment to them and all their actions and behaviors that can cause laughter at many times. And that also served the transformation that took place in the half and had an effect not only on Fabito, but on us as viewers.
All this narrative and story distinction is offset by artistic paintings presented by “Sorrentino” directed by his love and fondness for “Naples”, the city of magic and beauty that despite what happened to him and his body in the story of “Fabito”, but through it he felt the vitality and the start to create a different path and life that defeats all odds And adversity, of course, there are no different contributions in terms of directing that we have not seen before, but it is enough for the photographic staff that embodied the spirit of “Naples” and its various landmarks, and focused on the important details of the film, to give “Sorrentino” work its deserved appreciation in this year’s awards season and well-deserved
contributions that reflect reality with the best images and the best narrative and narrative formations, and this masterpiece “Paolo Sorrentino” is an ideal addition to Italian cinema in particular, through which we may feel that Federico is a cinematic neighborhood, but With a beautiful dramatic creation by a distinguished director and filmmaker such as Paolo Sorrentino.
