Čovek s pruge smrti (The Railway Man) – Colin Firth i Nicole Kindman u novoj filmskoj drami: Colin Firth me je oduševio sjajno ulogom u oskarizovanom film Kraljev govor (The King Speech) iz 2011 u uvek rado gledam njegove filmove. Ovog puta je svoj veliki talenat upario sa Nicole Kindman u ovoj autobiografkoj drami koju režira Johnathan Teplizky. Vreme će pokazati ali mislim da ovde imamo ozbiljnog kandidata u trci za ovogodišnjeg oskara.
Baziran na autobiografskoj knjizi, film nam donosi zanimljivu priču o Ericu Lomaxu, britanskom vojnom oficiru koji je bio zarobljen i mučen u japanskom radnom kampu za vreme Drugog svetskog rata. Decenijama kasnije Eric saznaje da je japanski tumač kojega drži krivim za svu svoju muku još živ. Kako bi se napokon suočio sa svojom prošlosti koja ga još uvek opsjeda, Eric se kreće susresti s njim. VIA
Eric Lomax was one of thousands of Allied prisoners of war forced to work on the construction of the Thai/Burma railway during WW2. His experiences, after the secret radio he built to bring news and hope to his colleagues was discovered, left him traumatised and shut off from the world.
Years later, he met Patti, a beautiful woman, on a train and fell in love. Patti was determined to rid Eric of his demons. Discovering that the young Japanese officer who haunted her husband was still alive, she faced a terrible decision. Should Eric be given a chance to confront his tormentor? Would she stand by him, whatever he did?
