Redacted Series: The 45th New York Film Festival [Sep 28 - Oct 14 2007] Director: Brian De Palma, Country: USA, Release: 2007, Runtime: 110 Americans who remember Vietnam may be experiencing a strong sense of déjà vu, but Brian De Palma hasn’t waited until after our war in Iraq to make his movie on the subject. Redacted is ripped from the headlines or, more precisely, from cable news: It’s a fictionalized account of a 2006 atrocity committed against a teenaged girl and her family by American troops in Mahmoudiya that, in its formal invention, harks back to the director’s countercultural roots. Certain to inspire controversy, De Palma’s disturbing portrayal of a dazed, confused, vengeful platoon, complete with resident video diarist, is a powerful movie of technical brio and ice-cold fury. A Magnolia Films release. Preceded by Cherries: An unwelcome announcement at school drastically alters the future for a class of rowdy teenage boys. Tom Harper, UK, 2007, 15 min.
