| HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH (2001) | |
|
|
Hedwig, a transsexual, is the lead singer for the band Hedwig and the Angry Inch and she got double-crossed by her former lover who is now a big time rock star. She is bitter, angry, vindictive, and ready to take on the past in order to settle old scores. One outlet is her music and it takes shape in many different forms throughout the film. However, her anger is hard to direct, since she cannot confront her targets. Hedwig's story is displayed through an abstract, surrealistic, and musical design that brings across the idea of Hedwig's problems in a multifaceted manner. The result is a smart film that is a brilliant cinematic experience. |
