| Ozus' World Movie ReviewsDennis SchwartzContrived murder mystery focusing on the mysterious death of the esteemed Spanish poet and playwright Federico Garcia Lorca. |
| Film Journal InternationalMaria GarciaThe only thing to be said for The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca is that it features some excellent performances by the most accomplished Latino actors working in film today. |
| User ReviewGregory Wthe first movie that i remember watching... |
| User ReviewBrenda Zinteresting plot, interesting everything, i liked it but... but not my favorite anyways |
| User ReviewLee MWell-intentioned and sincere in its adoration of Lorca, but this film's script is not very tightly woven and Andy Garcia as Lorca was a rather poor choice--he just doesn't come across as a poetic soul. Nice twist ending, though. With all its faults, still worth a watch. It does show the anti-intectualism of totalitarian governments. |
| User ReviewLawrence AI have loved this film since I first saw it ten years ago. At that time it was a hint to me that Andy Garcia was developing into a serious actor with a serious artistic vision. So for the record, let me point out that Garcia has since done a trio of biographical films, all representing the artist in conflict with society. They are: 1) The Disappearance of Garcia Lorca (1998); 2) For Love or Country: The Arturo Sandoval Story (2001); and 3) Modigliani (2004). These works, all biographies of ethnic heavyweights, told of the turbulent lives of a Spanish poet/playwright, a Cuban jazz musician and a Spanish painter. All were terrific and although I recommend all three, this one is my favorite. Each of these titles is available through the Great Red Envelope whose name cannot be spoken. |
