TOMATOMETER
Blending fact with invention, it tells the story of a confrontation between an artist and an emerging dictatorship, and more generally illuminates the endless struggle between political authority and the creative imagination.
New York Times
NERUDA, an intoxicating puzzle of a movie directed by Pablo Larraín, chronicles a strange, harrowing episode from the late 1940s, when the Chilean government’s crackdown on communism drove the great poet and politician Pablo Neruda underground.
Los Angeles Times
García Bernal is confident enough as an actor to do virtually nothing, allowing Larraín to sculpt a void of a performance around his classically handsome features....The more NERUDA departs from historical fact, the more trenchant it becomes. -- Grade: B+
A.V. Club
NERUDA is itself a lyrical experience. It’s photographed in creamy colors that suggest a faded postwar snapshot and graced with a rhapsodic soundtrack of late Romantics and spiky 20th century Modernists.
Chicago Sun-Times
NERUDA is a virtual fireworks show about the power of poetry and fame on the world....And a ravishing experience it is to watch. -- Grade: B
Entertainment Weekly
Product Description:
When Chilean poet Pablo Neruda (Luis Gnecco) is named an enemy of the state in 1948 for his communist leanings, a determined investigator (Gael García Bernal) launches a search to apprehend him. Neruda seizes on the opportunity to make a larger political and literary statement, and engages the investigator in a game of cat and mouse in this historical biopic directed by Pablo Larrain.
