Synopsis: Siglo IV. Egypt is under the dominion of the Roman Empire. The violent religious riots in the streets of Alexandria reached its legendary library. Trapped within its walls, the brilliant astronomer Hypatia fight to save the wisdom of the ancient world, without realizing that his young slave, Davo, is torn between the love he professed in secret and freedom that could achieve by joining the unstoppable rise of Christians. Relate film format history of mathematics and astronomer Hypatia was something that was not at all simple. Much is known about his death and its consequences for the rise of Christianity, but little has been what has been documented for their outstanding work. Bright and intelligent than most, Hypatia was seeking answers through philosophy and astronomy themes that tormented her as a young woman, such as the distance from the sun and the alignment of the planets, among other things.
English director Alejandro Amenabar (owner of a separate gems in the film as "Tesis", "The Others" and "Mar Adentro") decided give your career the most ambitious project to remember the English cinema, with a story never before told and owner of a hearty budget of 50 million euros, shot in English and Western actors.
Three years of research in books of history and astronomy were the ones who had to spend Alejandro Amenabar and Mateo Gil (writer of this very good band) to perform the Agora script, which tells of impeccable manner Alexandria in the fourth century point where the rise of Christianity threatened the terrible way the Egyptian world and all its beliefs. The libretto of "Agora" focuses all their guns in defense must be exercised in the legendary Library of Alexandria, when it itself is threatened by religious riots as Christianity grows exponentially and very dim view of all those who in some way directly related to philosophy and astronomy, and the same is very clear in Amenábar the tremendous film.
Science and religion have never been too good to say, which unfortunately is a problem that exists in our times, and that throughout history human life has become unnecessary. And within those lives, the development here gives the character of Hypatia is frankly sensational. Well developed to Throughout the film, the script focuses almost all its efforts to show more details about its efforts, intelligence and achievements throughout his life. A girl who gave up almost everything that would be a normal life (love, among other things), in pursuit of his one true passion, and that's something we were very clear Amenabar and Mateo Gil at the time of adaptation of his life to the big screen. If the job
screenwriter Amenabar has been fairly good, we must also say that their work behind the scenes has not run for anything before. Very well in handling the cameras, especially with many panoramic shots carriers of the religious riots, Amenábar shows great time management quality narrative through images. Combining them with the correct soundtrack and an impeccable work in photography and costumes, the director of the film ends up giving us a seamless work in any of these technical areas. Paragraph
deserves the memorable performance by Rachel Weisz in the role of Hypatia. He knew that his character was the backbone of the film and that it depended much interest that the public may or may not feel the tape.
Amenábar was aware of that and gave her character development very detailed and interesting than Rachel Weisz understood itself to perfection. A luxury actress (Oscar winner for the spectacular film "The Constant Gardener") gives us here another example of his tremendous ductility acting with gestures very natural and very credible in the eyes of the beholder.
Ultimately, "Agora" is a highly recommended film, frankly. On one hand, tells a story ever brought to the big screen, which in my view provides a good additional value, but mostly by the seriousness with which it has. On the other hand, and from a strictly cinematic point of view, we are witnessing a very interesting epic drama is a qualitative leap in the ambitious career of this very well known English director Alejandro Amenabar.
Movie Rating: Very Good. Read
