As the projector light shines into action, there are already pillows on the floor and excited whispers discussing what is to come. A small group of devoted students gathers in the lecture room for the next installment of Film Club’s comedy series. Adding to the list of movies that already includes Airplane and Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Film Club showed Whisky, a Uruguayan Tragicomedy, on February 18th. Whisky is the work of the late director Juan Pablo Rebella and has won Sundance Film Festival’s Latin American International Filmmakers Award. In the film the owner of a sock factory tries to create a different image of himself for his brother who is coming to visit from Brazil. He asks an employee to pose as his wife to add something to his otherwise repetitive life. Their introverted, quiet personalities fuel numerous comically awkward situations as well as a few painfully awkward moments. To make things even more uncomfortable the employee and the visiting brother begin to develop feelings for one another. The film is tediously slow in some parts but is intentionally so, primarily to illustrate how the sock factory owner’s life is extremely awkward and introverted. All three main characters are relatively expressionless throughout the movie, which invites the viewer to delve deeper into what their actions mean to their character rather than their emotions. Despite its slow pace the movie manages to build up to a dramatic and heartwarming ending. Film Club meets most Wednesdays after school and is open to all students. Next week they will show the movie Spinal Tap so get ready turn it up to 11.
