Title: What Just Happened
Director: Barry Levinson
Years
2009 Genre: Comedy
Two weeks in the life of Ben, a Hollywood producer, who, besides having to face a second divorce never fully accepted, in front of him him two projects definitely not simple. In the first case it is a film director mounted a particularly irritable and attached to their work. The star Sean Penn in the final but must die before him, and his faithful dog to make a bad finein foreground. Prewiew of the public does not like and even less appreciated Lou, head of the study that would distribute the film. Can Ben convince the director to remove the offending scene?
The second problem is that Ben has to face is equally complex: it has a film in preproduction with Bruce Willis character. The actor, who has grown a flowing beard that makes him almost unrecognizable, has not the slightest intention of tagliarsela. Those who should invest their dollars in the project is ready to cancel all contracts (and related penalties for Ben).
It is from these situations that unravels a story that sees De Niro to bring into play all his histrionic talents confronted with a stellar cast in which two colleagues (Penn and Willis) perform the role with great self-mockery of themselves. The mechanism
narrative film in the cinema seemed so repetitive and worn that it can not find new routes. Barry Levinson has shown that it is not so much avoiding the winks to professionals and proposing a comedy that can entertain the general public who called with a smile to spy through the keyhole of the 'golden' world of Hollywood, one can see how each film (especially in that car tritasassi which is the Mecca of the Movies) is the result of a variety of dynamics that will not always act in favor of its success.
fun to hit in front of characterizations Turturro and Tucci and exit do not feel ashamed of having done so, as unfortunately happened to the international critics at Cannes who attended the screening, smiling and often laughing, but eventually denied the applause.
