Steve McQueen’s Weltkriegsdrama zeit Rassismus in British Society

The film started with flames and a scary tone. A London Feuerwehrmann would have gone through the Schlauch-schlagen, if there had been plötzlichen Wasserdruck-überrascht. One of the water-spending Riesenschlange jumps from the Schlauch nun umher, in front of the Schwarz der Nacht and the orange rot of the big houses. A whole Straße Steht in Flammen. It is the time of the London Blitz, the Nazi air force in the British city view, between the months of September 1940 and May 1941, when the English war began. British filmmaker Steve McQueen starred in his favorite film “Blitz” in the Zeiten des Zweiten Weltkriegs. The film will be available in a number of cinemas in Germany from November 7, and on the Apple TV+ streaming service from November 22.

The children fly away from the safe zone, in a land where no bombs have fallen. Rita Hanway (Saoirse Ronan), all colleagues in a munitions factory, while Dennoch fell in an hour, little Sohn George (Elliott Heffernan) was in the tren. With such a wonderful heralbern, and everything is, my son Liebsten Marcus (CJ Beckford) was happy.

Auch George wasn’t born – his friend is here, and the country kitchen stinks. The story will end, but it won’t. “Ich hasse dich”, if you bother to mutter, and that’s a Grund, that’s a great opportunity to let the suitcase flow out of the Waggon and jump backwards. So can’t be more stehenbleiben. George schlägt de Weg nach Hause een, zurück in de Kriegsgebiet.

Der Meister des Extremen is nevertheless conventional

The artist and director Steve McQueen is from the Meister des Extremen, Besonderen. Sex – with all the freedom and pleasure of having sex Tabu – war 2012 the theme is still alive Films “Shame” (“Shame”), with Michael Fassbender as an attractive Werbefachmann, the lust no longer comes to the fore. That struggle is as fascinating, thin and fierce as McQueens in Cannes with his gold palm debut ‘Hunger’, in the Fassbender of IRA-Häftling Bobby Sands in his hunger streak of 1981.

Shocking war in “12 Years A Slave” (2013) in the story of Solomon Northup (Chiwetel Ejiofor), from 1841 from free America to the Sklaven stops in the South. In 2014, McQueen became the first black director to win the Oscar for best picture – with Fassbender as a psychopathic plantation owner. McQueen lies dem Zuschauer Rassismus bissig ins Gesicht jump and breadth of his work in the Millionen Sklaven, which is still not covered by the World Bank.

McQueen found the Rassismus in his heroic times

Fassbender is not the latter, the Thema Rassismus is no more – nur falls as one of the most surprising people, who has played a long way to the house of McQueen films in that first conventional conference. In British films about the so-called Luftschlacht in England, the gesellschaftliche Zusammenhalt is stopped in the Zeit äußerer Zerrüttung in Mittelpunkt. Der Feind von Außen nivelliert die Gegensätze im Inneren – jedenfalls im Kino, wee dann meist Gut (Britannia) v Böse (NS-Deutschland) heißt.

If the others schützt, that’s all King George VI stands for. and Winston Churchill, the bullish Kriegspremier, the Nazis said and the US saw their entire country, Great Britain, for their own Kriegschiffe ‘leihen’. In Filmen über diese Zeit gibt es keine Alltagsdiskriminierung, nur die Gemeinschaft der einander stutzenden Durchhaltewilligen. Ein, man genau nach, märchenhaftes Narrativ. In “Blitz” there is more light, more light.

Schwarz is guilty in London der Hautfarben

Little George is black and everything is different. There is a father from the Caribik, who is a Tanzabend with Rita in a Londoner Jazz club who is taunted by Schlägertypes zur Wehr setzen muss, as “Tier” and “Wilder” and was written up four times by the Bobbys at the Police. The man who deported Marcus in the Kroncolony of Grenada never regained Federlesen’s power. Schwarz is guilty of London der Hautfarben.

And George plays a game in the street of “Black Bastard”, while he plays in the land of the little young Jungs. „All mouth, no pants – big slap, nothing dahinter“ wehrt is sich, dem Rat seines Großvaters (Rock musician Paul Weller in seiner first Filmrolle) follows. And jumps up.

Gebrochenes Herz on Bahnsteig: Rita (Saoirse Ronan) had brought her to this day. The German bombing in London is certain in the country. Aber George has found the Landverschickung als Verrat.

McQueen, who wrote the Drehbuch, said that George’s view was of himself. It is a child who does not deviate from the norm, the Odyssey in the House is one of the most self-confident things. Sein “I am black!” from Mitte des Films is one of the Selbstermächtigung. That is the big question that the man in London’s Schaufenstern has made.

This is the result of the African Gold Coast tribesmen Luftschutzhelfer Ife (charismatic: Benjamin Clémentine), the class and race conscious women, who in a London Schutzunterkunft von Schwarzen abschotten wollen, zur Räson ruft and zu devise, thats dies but Hitlers Spiel sei, Race against Race aufzuhetzen. “Treat others with Mitgefühl and Respekt … or such other Schutz.”

Durch the flirting Jazz, those Sirens

Watch McQueen move away from his protagonists. There was no room in the ammunition factory, where the radio played a song by Rita with his people about the Äther-schickt, his colleagues were with a large number of Schichtleiters who were useless, and more information about the Schutzräumen in the microphone of the microphone. While having fun in a tanzveranstaltung in Café de Paris, the Reichen Londons will never drink Champagner, then star the Siren through the flirting Jazz heels and all in Todeserwartung. Später kommt George in de zerbombten Saal, der zur den Räuber Albert und Beryl (Stephen Graham, Kathy Burke) wurde, de Kinder anleiten, de Toten in de Ruinen Schmuck und Geld abzunehmen. Charles Dickens’ “Oliver Twist” is no longer useful.

“Blitz” made Leute aufblitzen en überlässt dann schnell wieder ihrem Schicksal, was beim Zuschauen überraschend anregend wirkt. Von McQueen’s epic about George sets out his course, which will be lost in Dunkel. Had it become Archie and Ian, who had a Stück in the Güterzug-fuhren with George, was the winking rot-haired Mädchen with his Hund? Im Angesicht des Kriegs thinks man and life. An unwanted light brings an image of a kite falling on a bomb, the Querverweis is a fierce Kriegen that he sees.

Die Rückkehr in die Gefahr – um “I liebe dich” zu sagen

And yet “Blitz” is a courteous attack, which in Wahrheit community is “Ich liebe dich”. When you’re doing historical stuff, when you’re taking big pictures, it involves a bigger budget. McQueen made the playwright so active in his role-playing that he often showed up with “anxious” papers.

The newcomer Elliott Heffernan looks around freely in this Liebesfilm in the Kriegsfilm, and George is the McQueen who eventually goes to Helden. Politicians cannot travel at the U-Bahn station “London Bridge” and travel to the destinations of the night at the train station, as they are in the night, so they are safe. There is a hold – where there is no George.

“Blitz“, Film, 121 Minutes, Director: Steve McQueen, starring Elliott Heffernan, Saoirse Ronan, Benjamin Clémentine, Stephen Graham, Paul Weller, Harris Dickinson, John Mackay, Kathy Burke (opens in theaters on November 7 and on Apple TV+ on November 22)
