New Heroes in the Age of Narcos
Ricardo Martínez García
Cinema is an expression artistic but also shows, depending on the script and the context, social trends that are accepted or rejected and which are already part of the idiosyncrasies of a people, or trends that you want to direct these idiosyncrasies.
The Mexican film director and screenwriter Beto Gómez Pérez Saving Private , parody of Steven Spielberg's war film Saving Private Ryan (98), with its own ideological and propaganda very particular, is taken to extremes comedians that work because in addition to mock the clichés of Spielberg's movie, the context is now the clichés, increasingly accepted in our society, what seems to consolidate a culture of drug trafficking.
economic power, style of dressing and speaking, international connections, the management of high-powered weapons, the power to do almost anything to be proposed, makes the drug lords almost mythical beings, the heroes of some sectors of the population that are not only places to build their villages, or schools, churches, rural clinics, it seems that now may, if rescue themselves at risk to their own, they send people who can do. The leaking Chapo and rescue as many other prisoners directly from high security prisons are small samples of the aura that surrounds and protects there in the mountains where they live, to view.
The cast has gathered Gomez is the best in terms of acting: Isela Vega, Jesus Ochoa, Miguel Rodarte, Jaime Camil, Gerardo Taracena, all well managed and work in settings that do not ask anything to Hollywood (such as those which produce the fierce gun battles and chases these people supposedly from Iraq and Turkey). This is a fun film that shows that acceptance of such characters in real life has gone beyond what civil society is ready to accept openly.
