The Pirogue Movie Review | |
[It] touches, subtly, on issues of faith, feminism and a faltering world economy. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger A remarkably cleareyed, quietly ambitious film ... A.O. Scott-New York Times What distinguishes it is not the depiction of danger and loss at sea, but a deep understanding of West African culture. Unlike such glib Hollywood issue pictures as Blood Diamond, The Pirogue is rich with authentic details. Mark Jenkins-NPR This universal story could easily serve as a dramatically gripping primer on topical immigration issues to schoolchildren across the globe, from Arizona to Afghanistan. Stephen Dalton-Hollywood Reporter There's enough filmmaking talent evident throughout that you wish the journey were more satisfying overall. Keith Uhlich-Time Out New York Moussa Touré's worldview, like Ousmane Sembene's, is characterized by the feeling that, at the end of the day, some degree of loss or defeat is inevitable. Calum Marsh-Slant Magazine Politically powerful neorealist treatment on Senegalese "boat people" done with a poet's touch. Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews | |
