| Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] Nicolas Roeg instruerede "Pigen og Professoren". Hans hustru Theresa Russel laver et kritikerrost portræt af Marilyn Monroe. Gary Busey spiller hendes kommende ex-mand Joe DiMaggio og Senator McCarthy spilles af Tony Curtis, som jo faktisk mødte Marilyn i "Some Like It Hot".
Filmen foregår i New York og Marilyn Monroe har lige indspillet den klassiske scene, hvor hendes kjole blæser op i et vindpust. Ikke langt derfra sidder Albert Einstein ensom på sit hotelværelse, søvnløs og hjemsøgt af mareridt om Hiroshima bomben. Hvis disse to havde mødt hinanden denne nat, hvad havde de så snakket om? "Pigen og Professoren" leder tanken hen på at fire af fremtidens største ikoner - Monroe, Einstein, Baseballstjernen Joe DiMaggio og Senator Joseph McCarthy - støder sammen ved et tilfælde på en varm sommernat i 1954. Med intelligens og sort humor afslører filmen menneskene bag legenderne: den paranoide kommunistjæger McCarthy konfronteres med pacifisten og socialisten Einstein. DiMaggio sørger over et ægteskab i opløsning og Marilyn får endelig chancen for at give Einstein sin helt egen personlige fortolkning af relativitetsteorien.
Beskrivelse: [ Dansk Engelsk ] On a hot night in 1952 a Professor (Michael Emil), an actress (Theresa Russell), a Senator (Tony Curtis) and a football player (Gary Busey) meet in a new york hotel. The characters are not given their real names in the film, but are clearly meant to be Albert Einstein, Marilyn Monroe, Senator Joe McCarthy and Joe Dimaggio. As well as resembling the well-known figures, the actors are also recognisable as a cross-section of America at that time.
An acting and writing tour de force rather than a statement on sports, politics, sex symbols or relativity, the film has a fluid progression of flashbacks and flash-forwards focusing on the fictional Einstein's current observations, childhood memories and apprehensions for the future. Theresa Russell, as Marilyn Monroe, holds the film together as the key linking element while Tony Curtis is a glorious ham as the hard-drinking, paranoid Senator, Joe Dimaggio (Gary Busey) is stolid and does not comprehend his famous wife while Einstein (Michael Emil) is sweet and childlike and closest to Monroe's own personality. Insignificance is presented here in its original 1.33:1 'as filmed' format and contains more picture area than previously-released widescreen versions, where the original image has been cropped top and bottom. |
