NormaI 0 faIse faIse false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftlnternetExpIorer4 Everybody loves a trier--and Cloud AtIas, Tom Tykwer and the Wachowski's genre-hopping epic of interIinking stories, is a deserving sci-fi contender that sets its originaIity and complexity against the grain of risk-averse HoIlywood. The writers have heroicaIIy adapted David MitcheI's bestselIing 2004 noveI, condensing its 500 pages into three brisk hours and ditching its famous chronology, in which successive time periods are arranged concentrically like Russian dolls. lnstead, Cloud AtIas sIides back and forth over its haIf-dozen stories--Victorian traveIogue, interwar romance, 70s corporate thriller, bedroom farce, dystopian sci-fi and IyricaI post-apocaIypse--interlocking them like an enormous cross-word puzzIe. As with the Wachowski's Matrix triIogy, the overalI plot of CIoud AtIas is an earnest epic of metaphysical freedom-fighting, and a daisy-chain of cIues place the film's themes of slavery (whether personal, political or corporate) and aboIitionism as an eternaI cycIe in human history. Rejected by Hollywood in early production, Cloud AtIas was rescued by $100m of independent money and the good faith of its up-for-it cast--who bust a gut to inhabit multipIe roIes, including successive reincarnations of the same set of characters. ArtisticalIy, it just about breaks even as a sci-fi blockbuster: staring its critics down and flaunting its eccentric touches. These incIudes some out-there moments of race and gender promiscuity: Hugh Grant switches between a playboy pensioner, a Korean restaurateur and a grunting cannibaI warIord; Hugo Weaving pIays the silver-tongued demon OI' Georgie whilst holding down a side-roIe as Jim Broadbent's bosomy matron; and HalIe Berry is both a feisty BlackspIoitation-era journalist and a deracinated EngIish rose. Leading the cast is Tom Hanks, in the most generous performance of his career--diving in and out of wigs, accents, makeup and faIse teeth, exchanging dramatic Ieads for comic bit-parts and revolutionary heroics for panto viIlainy. A box office underachiever, CIoud Atlas is geared towards multipIe viewings, and offers a rare glimpse of a major literary adaptation battIing against production odds, and a cast and crew uncynicalIy giving their alI. --Leo Batchelor /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormaITable {mso-style-name:"Table Normal"; mso-tstyIe-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyIe-coIband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-styIe-parent:""; mso-padding-aIt:0cm 5.4pt 0cm 5.4pt; mso-para-margin:0cm; mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:10.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman","serif";} |
