18. Thunder Road - cinema - VPRO Gids

  • Bevat niet: review | Resultaten tonen met:review

  • Na het succes van zijn tragikomische korte film Thunder Road (2016), over een politieagent die zichzelf belachelijk maakt terwijl hij een grafrede houdt voor zijn overleden moeder, besloot regisseur, scenarist en hoofdrolspeler Jim Cummings het gegeven uit te werken tot een speelfilm. Het resultaat is nogal episodisch: meer een reeks sketches dan een echt verhaal. De rode draad – labiele agent Jim Arnaud – is echter een ijzersterke creatie; geestig, aandoenlijk en irritant tegelijk. Een veelbelovend debuut, trefzeker gefilmd ook, en gemaakt voor een schamele 200 duizend dollar.

  • Thunder Road is a deeply humanistic film. Starring, directed and written by Jim Cummings, it focuses on a man – who is a son, a husband, and a father – whose relationships in these roles are all undergoing profound change. He struggles to remain emotionally resilient and to find his best self in the face of loss, both past and potential. It is written, performed and directed with open-hearted empathy and, seemingly contradictorily, tragi-comically grounded realism.

  • Thunder Road begins with a bizarre, funny yet strangely affecting 10-minute eulogy by grieving police officer Jim Arnaud (Jim Cummings) at his mother’s funeral.
