Modern day noir, slow, dark, black, not good for Vietnam era vets…
Today is my 45th wedding anniversary, except my wife died February 12 of last year. Dealing with her death after the first year left me facing the black hole I have ignored for 52 years – Panel 01E, Line 79, the Wall. My best friend in the Army, whom I trained, died in Nam early on – December, 1963. As part of finally facing this, I have been reading some about the war, written by Vets – The Things They Carried (I was Infantry) and The Sorrow of War (by a North Vietnam Vet). This movie came along. I’m not a movie reviewer, not a movie historian, just an old guy that has seen a lot of movies and like dumb, mindless action flicks mostly with lots of colorful explosions, and maybe some breasts. And the good guys always win in the end. So don’t expect sophistication.

This movie is for one, black and white noir. For two, is painfully slow for the first 30 minutes, picks up a bit the next 30 minutes, and has a decent ending. I found it very painful. So I rated it in the middle. I’m sure college kids taking movie appreciation classes will love it. It has all the noir ingredients that make movies so cool. They have not had to live this stuff.

Every Veterans Day, I go to town, order two pints of beer, drink one and bring my buddy up to date on what has happened, and leave – with one full pint left untouched. We made a deal 52 years ago and counting. I’m gonna keep it until I die, which hopefully won’t be a lot of years from now. I first went to Nam in 1985 on a Veteran’s project – point of the spear for normalizing relations – and was met by a vet from the project (and good friend) and we spent two of the craziest weeks I have ever had in (what was) North Vietnam. We cried a lot together, and separately, then came back escorting 7 Indian orphans (don’t ask). Two months later he was dead from an overdose – his name, and many more like him, should be on the Wall, but are not.

This movie addresses that pain, well acted by them too young to have experienced it. I honestly don’t know how to rate it. Did I like? No.

Will I forget it soon?

Probably never.

Is this really a movie review? Naw, just something I had to say. I will never forget this movie, and I will never like it, either. So a 5.

Projectionist- A journey into a soldier.
Jacob is a lonely, insomniac and mentally unstable veteran of the military, who suffers with Post- Traumatic Stress Disorder. His adaption to the every day world is an isolated and guarded nightmare from which he cannot escape nor seek repress.

The film delivers on an important and onerous subject matter and social issue with a film resonating an omniscient feeling of loneliness symbolized by Jacob’s role as a projectionist and his reliance on the vices of prostitution, drug use and paranoia.

These pitfalls of Jacob’s human psyche creep out through wonderful performances by the cast and beautiful cinematography, which bleeds dauntingly onto the big screen and is made all the more compelling by the cinematic score which elevates each scene.

This is a must see film with a strong story and an even stronger message from a rising and talented writer/director, Ryan Kennedy.
