The Prophet - Fasicnating and Cruel
by Milota Sidorova
I have been waiting to see the Prophet for weeks. Suddenly two movies with the same theme appear in my library. There is Soom from Korean Kim Ki Duk and the Prophet from Jasques Audiard. Knowing Kim Ki Duk's movies, I choose it for the first evening. I can clearly predict, it would be metaphorical soft romance within the prison walls. Watching Soom I become to think of the Prophet. It's like being on date with a man while thinking of the another. It's exactly the same. From what is being known after seeing a trailer I can read out a great amount of realism, violence and adaptability a young prisoner has to show, if he wants to survive. The movie is not caring for the observ! er. It is going its own pace and values. Tell me, if you happen to get to the prison beaten to death, would you kill a person? An Eye for an eye. This is a part message of the movie. It also shows a young Arab thrown into Corsican prison facing death and decay of somehow promising future. But that man cay bend it for its own sake. And while becoming a feared man with highly moral adaptability, we also taste his life till the bitter end. Some say, people die as they live. But reducing to the final shot would trim so many emotions, experience and breathtaking time to pass. Prophet is a story about everyone of us. The picture of prison is a metaphor of the outer world. Both can be dangerous. Malik, the main character knows it. We can hardly guess it.
