Who are you, the hero of the war in Korea, a traitor? It is no secret that people, especially the male half of humanity, like to go fishing. And there is no doubt that when fishing, a person uses a hook. The trick is that the Creator has us all on the hook or on the Dump, like Paul Newman’s hero.
Unknown to the general public director Arnold Leuven, I think, is a good connoisseur of human souls. And a more illustrative example than the film “Pyba” can hardly be invented.
At the heart of this subtle and geometrically calibrated psychological drama is the fate of one guy who returned home from the war in Korea. All right, but there's one catch, Ed Hall was a prisoner. And according to some reports of good will, notice of good will, helped or rather cooperated with the enemy. What is this called "betrayal"? But it is too early to jump to conclusions, we need to understand everything. That is why there is a military prosecutor. This guy, took the case and rolled up his sleeves began to study it, and not for nothing with a flax or with a great desire to make a conviction. Not at all. He approached him impartially, like a good surgeon, who has to perform a complex operation. I figured it out. Now it's the court line.
That's where all the charm, all the refinement, play on the nerves of the viewer, when you feel the intensity of passions with your whole being.
And Paul Newman, like no one else, is able to give you this most notorious degree and once again splash on the red-hot stones, as if you find in the steam room and the temperature has long exceeded 100. His bewilderment, his soul wracking from corner to corner, is, in fact, why we love this person!
People, mere mortals, you and I, often have to make choices. It is very difficult, and for someone unbearable. The choice is everything from the little things to the main things. Paul Newman's hero made his choice. And you?
P.S. In the film, a great merit of the director, there are no bad and negative characters. We know how easy it is to get out in contrast. They're not here. And yet, the film ties you hand and foot, crusts you through. Because there is no other way.
