Curiosa joya me tope esta noche de 2013. Película atípica no apta para todos los públicos. Con un presupuesto mínimo ($250,000), Steven Soderbergh consigue crear esta obra, pseudo-película independiente que como su nombre indica es un auténtica locura.
Fruto de la ignorancia me pregunto cómo este tipo, Steven, ha dirigido películas desde la saga de Oceans eleven a Magic Mike y demás películas comerciales. Mk ultra.
Schizopolis es una alegoria a la locura y la esquizofrenia, una comedia experimental excepcional.
La película era tan rara que no se comercializó y apenas en pocas salas de cine de Norte América fué emitida, que gracioso, auténtico "weird stuff". Movidas de Doppelgänger muy serias.
Muy recomendable.
