Synopsis

The Film

It is initially interesting to know that the film takes as a starting point a true story which made great noise at the time and which the novel of Daniel Lang reports. The original title of film means war damagees literally. Elia Kazan invented one following this history in its film the Visitors: two of the denounced soldiers find Eriksson which lives in a farm isolated with his wife and settle at his place. Brian De Palma belongs to a generation of scenario writers who were students at the time of the war of Vietnam. The first televised war poured a flood of image which influenced their imaginary. The film is interested much the made-to-order to film this violence. one in particular reproached the scenario writer for filming the war like his thrillers exercises of styles hitchcockien. These effects are however put at the service of the reflection of the scenario writer on what is an insupportable image. De Palma goes even until making squirt blood on the camera. Rolled by criticism at the time of its exit, Outrages remains a film cursed to redécouvrir. Even if one does not like the cinema of Palma, confrontation between Sean Penn and Michael J. Fox is exceptional. Fox using of its face of adolescent eternal probably finds his best role dramatic vis-a-vis Sean Penn terrifying.
