Loving Pablo (2017)
8/10
Can be seen even for only Bardem
6 July 2019
Yes, it is a terrible mistake that main spoken language is English in the movie. However, Bardem portrays Escobar within a birilliant performance. Penelope Cruz, as well, presents a satisftying performance eventhouh it is not as stronges as Bardem's. The story focuses on Escobar's metamorphic transformations of personal characater. we meet various Escobars having different psychological motivations; Escobar as father, husband, darling, boss, politician. Within those different personality views, two elements compose an intersection set; dominant masculinity norms and belief of self-innocence. Escobar character in the movie, whatever he changes by the context of his rational mind, never gives up his masculine pleasures and never loses his belief on that he prefers always the right way. No matter what happens, Escobar is right, even if he is only one believing that. Absolutely, the movie could be better. But, it is not bad work as what it is, now.
