nel nome del padre
Set in a Catholic boy's school, this wearisome tale concerns
a group of obnoxious rich students and their pompous headmasters.
The film tries hard to be an allegory of the anti-establishment
social atmosphere of the early 1970s, evidently attempting
to prove that Mankind is basically bestial by depicting all
the characters as repulsive and self-serving.
There's no highlight to speak of, though the scene in which
the students stage a deliberately offensive amateur theatrical
is perhaps the most watchable sequence.
In the Name of the Father is a dreary exercise in heavy-handedness
and repetition.
