Notes for a future review of Valkyrie


· Valkyrie shows the way that a director like Bryan Singer should continue (as Christopher Nolan and David Fincher): one that avoids both the vices of entertainment as well as the temptation to be recognized as auteur.

· Valkyrie is, say, a studio film. In that it follows a classical spirit (in the Hollywood sense of the term) of narrative economy and interpretive.

• In Valkyrie all characters are defined by their actions. No psychologism. A couple of words, a couple of gestures, and how to act on the facts carefully defined each of them. And that constitutes, of course, the depth of the film.

· The events described in Valkyrie are, obviously, and in relation to what is called "historical truth", a little distorted. For example omits that the conspiracy against Jesuit priests were involved Hitler and members of the Lutheran church. But we know that when transformed into film, of course if this film is able to approach the concept of cinema-the "historical truth" can not be an evaluation parameter (except of course, nonsense is reached extreme as the de-forgiveness "The Da Vinci Code, where the idiocy and ignorance reaches cosmic levels, there is different, and, of course, that is outside the cinema, and any activity that is honorable.)

· Valkyrie is central heroic role.

• The constant appearance of the heroic element, its configurations and reconfiguration is a cornerstone of cinema.

• The Valkyrie hero Claus von Stauffenberg, a Catholic military in search of redemption. And that redemption is primarily including, but not only.

• The hero is the one who decides. Says very clearly: "I came to make decisions. And to help others to take. "

• A picture of the best shows Von Stauffenberg Valkyrie thoughtfully, while a mirror gives us back the image with a crucifix on his head. That we know what decisions respond HA. Before the movement of a pendant as a result of bombing, and background music of Wagner and We had anticipated the emergence of verticality.

· Wagner. Hitler tells von Stauffenberg in a meeting: "Whoever does not understand Wagner, National Socialism never understand." Had previously explained what are the Valkyries. The genealogy of delusions pseudomíticos a certain German thought is underlined in Valkyrie. Claus Von Stauffenberg's face from his faith and Christian heroism.

· In this confrontation, which through the operation of film aesthetics becomes a symbol of eternal conflict-born this good movie. Interesting and successful
