926 - Manila in The Claws of Light (1975)
Manage episode 289777673 series 2779324
It’s been a while since Randy picked something from a nation’s film output with which we have little-to-no familiarity. And a little 1970s Filipino cinema is just what we needed to break us out of the endless Criterion pattern of American/French/English/Japanese. With this - celebrated director Lino Brocka’s adaptation of a novel following a young man named Julio (played by Rafael Roco Jr.) who searches for his missing girlfriend through the poverty and exploitative working conditions of the big city - we’re given a compelling human drama as our introduction.
If you’d like to watch ahead for next week’s film, we will be discussing and reviewing Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction (1994).
