"Redacted"-Trailer

Back


The trailer for the very controversial movie "Redacted" by Brian De Palma.
"Redacted" explores the complex issues of representation, media coverage and the power of pictures in themselves through the unreported dark zones of the American intervention in Iraq.

Very often whether totally hated or unconditionally acclaimed ( but only broadcast in 15 theatres across the US...), "Redacted" certainly stands for a new step in the American representation and perception of the ungoing conflict in Iraq.
After a first attempt with Paul Haggis' "In the Valley of Elah", a new surge of criticism and anger seems to burn out even more strikingly in "Redacted".

The French cahier du cinéma very detailed coverage of the movie:


An article from the New York Times:


Some differences between the European and American coverages are interesting to note.

The absence of any pictures ( except the last dramatic one ) in this trailer is also a choice to ponder upon.
