Wild Tales

ICA - Institute of Contemporary Arts, London

Nominated for Best Foreign Language Film in the 2015 Oscars, Wild Tales comprises six episodes linked by common themes of dark, comedic misfortune and revenge. The first has echoes of co-producer Pedro Almodovar's I'm So Excited! as a catwalk model (Maria Marull) realises she has boarded a plane full of people who have also in some way maltreated an ex-boyfriend she unceremoniously dumped and guess who's in the cockpit? Other segments include a surrealist road-rage showdown, a jealous bride causing mayhem at her wedding party and a corrupt millionaire incensed by his equally unscrupulous lawyer. Ricardo Darin, so exceptional in The Secret in Their Eyes, appears as an explosively vengeful demolition engineer. Director Szifron's fast-moving narrative style packs this wickedly hilarious compendium with huge entertainment value.
