Tom Holland’s character in The Crowded Room is for showing off at the greatest of heights and at the same time for sinking into the deepest of chasms
Tom Holland en ‘The Crowded Room’.
First he abandoned social networks, then he had the impulse to shave his head, then he said that he has been sober for 16 months thanks to the role and in recent interviews he has said that he plans to take a sabbatical year to recover. Tom Hollandthe boy we met in The Impossible by the hand of Juan Antonio Bayona and over the years acquired the category of world star thanks to Spider-Man, has broken psychologically because of the series The Crowded Room.
It is a character to show off at the greatest of heights and at the same time to sink into the deepest of chasms. why? It cannot be explained too much, now we will see why, at the risk of spoiling everything. And that is precisely part of his grace and, evidently, his misfortune.
Apple TV broadcasts this mind-bending journey into the human mind, minus the special effects of Richard Fleischer’s 1960s fantasy adventure, but with plenty of knockouts. The invoice is the usual in the productions of the bitten apple, although it is difficult not to feel, like Holland, the contradictions of a story that has allowed us to see a series of conditions. They have been requested by their creator, Akiva Goldsman, who was Oscar winner for screenplay An amazing mindthe film directed by Ron Howard, and a guy who also knew how to fill audiences with I am legend and I, robot.
The writer explains in detail what can and cannot be told, although the news and interviews published around the world with its protagonist have already been too explicit in most cases.
The emphasis placed on the platform to prevent the first viewers from speaking out also seems exaggerated. It is secrecy without the necessary security sealing. In any case, it seems to bet too much on the surprise factor. As a publicity stunt, it’s also nothing Hitchcock didn’t do before or Shyamalan should have done.
Akiva Goldsman assures that his intention from the beginning was “To generate empathy for all who suffer from trauma-related mental illnesses”, with the firm will not to turn them into a vulgar caricature. The story is dressed as a thriller, not too faithful to its literary origin, The Minds of Milly Milligan, a non-fiction book signed by Daniel Keyes.
Amanda Seyfried en ‘The Crowded Room’.MUNDO
It all begins in New York, in 1979, when the protagonist is arrested for a shooting. Amanda Seyfried is in charge of interrogating the young man throughout 10 episodes, filled with an endless series of flashbacks that thread the story from beginning to end. Both interpreters are also executive producers, a fact that is not less suspicious because it is frequent. Let’s also say that if there had been eight chapters no one would have been hurt.
In the cast we recover Emmy Rossum, Shameless’ theoretically sensible sister, who may surprise as Holland’s mother if we take into account that she is a little less than 10 years older than him. Along with them, stand out Jason Isaacs, Thomas Sadoski and the Israeli Lior Raz, an international star thanks to Fauda. Seyfried, married in real life to Sadoski, has echoes of Clarice Starling, the heroine of The Silence of the Lambs, but without such an obvious quid pro quo, while Holland looks more like a sheep about to be slaughtered than a cannibal. The intricacies of the script keep the interest and achieve an interesting change of gears past the equator, perhaps too far.
