The Best Film You Have Never Seen December 4, 2002
16 out of 16 found this review helpful
This little-known British film from first time director Danny Cannon is in my Top 10 favourite films and is probably my favourite UK film of all. Here's why:pFirst of all, Cannon's direction is incredibly slick considering this was his first feature film. It is a tragedy that his second project turned out to be the ill-fated blockbuster Judge Dredd, as after his work on this he deserved much more. However, he is now receiving recognition and respect due to his work on the TV series "CSI", so that is good news.pSecondly, the performances in The Young Americans are top notch. Keitel is on auto-pilot for most of the time, but this is a good thing as his central character - NYPD cop John Harris - is a cold straight-talking man, so no overacting was needed here. Iain Glen (Tomb Raider), Craig Kelly (Queer as Folk) and Thandie Newton (Mission Impossible 2) all provide impressive key roles as well.pThirdly(!), David Arnold's score and the soundtrack as a whole are both remarkable. A single section of the score called "Christian's Requiem" is quite possibly one of the most powerful pieces of music of it's kind, with a full orchestra and choral backing. Bjork's chart hit "Play Dead" (co-written with Arnold) of course needs no introduction, as it was and remains a top track, totally in keeping with the ethos of the film for which it was written.pFinally, the cinematography is beautiful throughout. I cannot recall London being filmed with such professionalism in a UK film. And yes, that INCLUDES the likes of Lock Stock and Snatch. Cannon the the cinematographer deserve great credit for giving the entire production such a top-class "Michael Mann" level of beauty.pOverall then, I cannot recommend this film highly enough. All we need now is a widescreen DVD edition, although I doubt that this will happen for some time sadly. John Mounsey.
