Video Essay. Anaphora: Gus Van Sant’s “Paranoid Park”

The peripatetic indie filmmaker rediscovers the tools of his early, groundbreaking movies with a sensual, subjective story of youth.

Review: “Let the Right One In” (Alfredson, Sweden)

“Let the right one in” is a delicious phrase referring to the occult rule that a vampire cannot enter someone’s house unbidden.

Kritiker-Rezensionen

Paranoid Park may seem like a sketch, yet it catches in luminous amber a moment when reality bloodily, necessarily pierces the myth of adolescent purity.

Conjuring a submersive audio/visual atmosphere that is neither dreamy nor exactly expressionistic, Paranoid Park nevertheless gets into the headspace of its young high school skater protagonist and treats with supreme respect what might be best described as a blown mind.

It is a modestly scaled triumph without a false or wasted moment.

  • Jye Sherwell's rating of the film Paranoid Park

    Jye Sherwell

    Gabe Nevins did a fantastic job in this film. I found the dialog extremely natural, convincing and really it all rang true with me. The story is good and Aussie DP Christopher Doyle did a superb job on the visual side. I loved the eclectic music too. Overall this is my favourite film from Van Sant plus one of my favourite films of all time.

    Van Zant's finest film, IMHO - Gabe Nevins is a real find and could become a major star if he chooses to continue acting. Absolutely love this film - winner of five of my Poppy year-end awards last year including Best Director, Best Cinematography, and Best Juvenile Performance.

    Wonderful! Van Sant at his arty best. Such an understanding of youth and a hell of an ear for dialogue.

  • Wee Hunk's rating of the film Paranoid Park

    Wee Hunk

    Van Sant is at heart an experimental filmmaker. As a result it can look like he's throwing things out there to see which things work. There was a fair amount of stuff I didn't think worked. The soundtrack, the forehead lighting, the aspect ratio. I could go on. I did want to point out that the scene where they had sex was well done in terms of the ambient noise and the psychological aspects.

    msmichel

    Van Zant's brief experimental phase (Gerry, Elephant, Last Days) seemed to come to an end with this dreamlike arty film concerning a murder tied to a young skater. Shot with precision and beauty by Christopher Doyle and Rain Kathy Li . Van Sant's adaptation of the Blake Nelson novel is short on linear plotting but tells an interesting tale none the less.

  • dionysus67's rating of the film Paranoid Park

    dionysus67

    Could have been an insightful and melancholic portrait -as it clearly intended to be- of the teenage mind-set and subcultures, yet it lets itself down through unfortunate decisions on narrativity. Both the slow-motion shots, the grainy, as if of documentary footage, sequences plus the musical ironies fail to add to what the paucity of the teenagers aims to reveal. Some fine moments on moral empathy do not suffice.

  • anarresti's rating of the film Paranoid Park

    anarresti

    Gus Van Sant, Larry Clark and Harmony Corine have made some of the most memorable recent portraits of american teenagers. What they have in common is that they make non-jugdemental narratives that show how complex growing up is, in a society where all sorts of things collide, in a body where all sorts of things are colliding. One of the best of that golden generation of filmmakers. Close to perfection. Very close.
