The American Sniper has arrived in a very strange time in Clint Eastwood's career. He'd taken an uncharacteristic three-year break from directing after badly missing the mark with "J. Edgar" in 2011. Directed by His Longtime Behind-the-Scenes Collaborator Robert Lorenz, He was wise to eas up on the filmmaking reins because you know anything about the game of basket, but for a hard to. Movie Than that one.

When Eastwood finally stepped behind the camera again for the "Jerseyers' guys" in 2014, he did not completely shame his bizarre speech at the 2012 GOP Convention, where he was inappropriately baked an empty chair occupied by imaginary President Barack Obama. But the directing of the adaptation of the ukebobox musical for four seasons seemed exciting of the Eastwood character; It can only be something to erase that clumsy performance of the Convention from the world's collective memory. Unfortunately, it was a weak transfer of Broadway that was poorly lit and inexplicably easy for music. Jerseyers Boys has his moments, but Eastwood risked the moment he was due to play his advantages.

The fruitful director in 2014 did not end up with the Boysers Boys. When his biopic on the life of the highly decorated navy press Chris Kyle, "American Sniper", debuted at that annual AFI Film Festival in November, the majority of critics praised him as a triumphant return to form. I was in that audience and I felt the strangest flood of emotions. At that time, at a purely technical level, I thought "American Sniper" is Eastwood's most successful film from "Perfect World" (Now I would say "Bridges of Madison County"), but, thematically felt awkward. It was an anti -war film that rated Kyle's heroism of Kyle (who was shot by a former PTSN -hit soldier in the Texas rifle), which became the largest marker in US military history. Kyle followed the orders and relied on his verdict to protect his fellow soldiers without killing innocent civilians. This was an impossible task, the one who understandably haunted Kyle, but had a dark side of this man. Kyle boasted that he and a friend drunk were shot by dozens of armed civilians during the immediate effects of Hurricane Katrina. He also made other wild claims that seemed to be total lies, so I bothered me when Eastwood finished the "American sniper" with footage of the real life of his memorial at the Cowboy Stadium in Dallas, Texas. This was how to give Kyle Session. And movie movies packed theaters to pay tribute to the box office.

Despite admiring most of this film, this decision still disturbs me. He also bothered Seth Rogen, and he caught his opinion seriously.

Rogen is, according to my experience, one of the most princied in the entertainment industry, so I woke up when, on January 18, 2015, He tweeted "The American Sniper" reminds me of the film that is being shown in the third act of "(Ingluroy) Bustes." "That fictional film," Pride of the Nation ", respects the heroic deadline of Nazi Siper Fredrik Arler (Daniel Bruchl). His entire tweet for me was crystalizing what was upset about me for Eastwood's film.

Right -wing sites came out of the attack, which forced Rogen to issue an answer Recognizing that he "actually loved" the film and that he had the greatest respect for the veterans. "My grandfather was a veteran," he wrote. "My comment on the film should not have any political implications. Every political significance was attributed to my comment with news comments."

I was writing about it is not the cool news at the time and I gave up writing for an "American sniper" because I didn't want to be the boy, noticing that Eastwood, to paraphrase "the man who shot at Liberty Valens", printed an admirable legend of an premature qualified killer. Eastwood is one of my favorite directors, primarily because he was always ready to move away from his personality with a hard boy playing weak, conflicting or direct frauds (As he did in the underestimated "Tigrop"). And in this case, I got what (I think) Rogen was saying: Eastwood made a great movie that faced a person by turning it into an ode to Kyle's service, when, in reality, the film spent most of its duration, showing how his inconsistent commitment to his fellow soldiers destroyed him.

So I finally wrote about "American Sniper", A movie that made its audience and the dirty subject by repairing the dehumanizing effect, allegedly, just killing people who aim to love, teach and leave this planet to improve it.
