(FOUR AND 1/2 STARS)
We will always mourn the death of Adrian Bielinski, what did he do with this one and “The Aura“two great films.”Nine Queens“is already a icon of Argentine cinemafull of phrases that we repeat and tells two things.
The first, the thriller on a “plan” where it is shown Buenos Aires like a nest of swindlers, blackmailers, profiteers, careless people. The second, much more interesting and the true core of the film, how to create a fictionhow to construct a staging so that it is convincing.
There is something else: the political or social circumstances of the country They are tools to give credibility (it is true, there is also social criticism or satire, but that is a plus, not the core of the matter) to a story that, in addition to being fun and charming, has much more to cut. Watching it again implies, incidentally, comparing it with the cinema we see today, and not just the Argentine one, so in addition to having a good time, we do a (necessary) exercise.
