Have you ever felt hit hard by loneliness, making you ponder about things you long for in your life? Have you felt that emptiness that you are wasting your life doing a job, living in a city, or relating to certain people? Do you think that life is slipping through your fingers and that you haven't done anything important? Questions like these ended up emanating from within me after watching this film; which subtly delves into the caves of the innermost fears of the human being.
I've been wanting to see this Irish film for a long time, it's been a long time coming, but I finally got around to it. I knew I would stumble upon great things, maybe an absurd comedy or some dramatic entertainment, but what I got later was more than that; a deep philosophy that the writer wanted us to see and that remains inherent in each of us.
驴Alguna vez te has sentido golpeado fuertemente por la soledad, haci茅ndote reflexionar por cosas que anhelas en tu vida? 驴Has sentido ese vac铆o de que est谩s desperdiciado tu vida realizando un trabajo, viviendo en una ciudad o relacion谩ndote con ciertas personas? 驴Piensas que la vida se te est谩 escapando de las manos y que no has hecho nada importante? Preguntas como esta terminaron emanando de mi interior despu茅s de ver esta pel铆cula; la cual profundiza sutilmente en las cuevas de los miedos m谩s rec贸nditos del ser humano.
Hace tiempo que quer铆a ver este film irland茅s, ha pasado mucho tiempo, pero por fin lo he conseguido. Sab铆a que me topar铆a con grandes cosas, quiz谩s una comedia absurda o algo de entretenimiento dram谩tico, pero lo que consegu铆 m谩s adelante fue m谩s que eso; una filosof铆a profunda que el escritor quer铆a que vi茅ramos y que permanece inherente en cada uno de nosotros.

We will encounter a beautiful setting, found on a remote island off the coast of Ireland, where the population is sparse and the locals know each other. In this place lie two men: P谩draic and Colm, who were lifelong friends until Colm decides, without any explanation or pretext, to end his friendship with P谩draic, which leaves P谩draic disturbed and confused.
P谩draic, a noble and gentle man, knows nothing but life inside Inisherin. His mind is focused only on his animals, his home, and his work. Colm, on the other hand, is a more intellectual man, with a passion for music and the search for a horizon that will bring him peace of mind.
Poor P谩draic, distressed by Colm, tries to understand why he suddenly no longer wants to be his friend and, in the attempt, tries to win him back. His sister, Keoghan; an intellectual, stern, yet gentle woman, tries to help her brother understand Colm's sudden attitude.
While the characters try to decipher this dispute, we will enter an atmosphere where the deepest feelings of human beings play, while the howls of the Civil War make noise in front of the island. We will find disagreements, reflective dialogues about existence softened with a bit of Irish humor, the noise of a friendship that is gradually disappearing, and an impertinent but disturbed boy, accompanying the characters. Will this friendship of so many years come to an end?
Nos encontraremos con un escenario hermoso, hallado en una isla remota frente a las costas de Irlanda, donde la poblaci贸n es poca y los lugare帽os se conocen entre ellos. En este lugar yacen dos hombres: P谩draic y Colm, quienes eran amigos de toda la vida hasta que Colm decide sin ninguna explicaci贸n o pretexto, terminar su amistad con P谩draic; lo cual deja a este perturbado y confundido.
P谩draic, es un hombre noble y gentil, que no conoce nada m谩s que la vida dentro Inisherin. Su mente se centra 煤nicamente en sus animales, su casa y su trabajo. Colm, en cambio, es un hombre m谩s intelectual, con una pasi贸n por la m煤sica y la b煤squeda de un horizonte que le brinde tranquilidad.
El pobre P谩draic, angustiado por Colm, intenta comprender por qu茅 茅l de repente ya no quiere ser su amigo y, en el intento, trata de recuperarlo. Su hermana, Keoghan; una mujer intelectual, severa, pero a la vez gentil, trata de ayudar a su hermano a entender la actitud repentina de Colm.
Mientras los personajes intentan descifrar esta disputa, nos adentraremos en una atm贸sfera donde juegan los sentimientos m谩s profundos del ser humano, mientras los aullidos de la Guerra Civil hacen ruido frente a la isla. Hallaremos desavenencias, di谩logos reflexivos sobre la existencia suavizados con un poco de humor irland茅s, el ruido de una amistad que poco a poco va desapareciendo y un muchacho impertinente pero perturbado, acompa帽ando a los personajes. 驴De verdad llegar谩 a su fin esta amistad de tantos a帽os?
In the first instance, the film seems to me to be a work of art; with those photographic images of landscapes that represent a true Irish paradise. The costumes and scenery are very well elaborated and leave you completely immersed in rural island life.
The cast was fabulous. Colin Farrel with his performance as P谩draic was more than convincing for me, as even though I had nothing in common with the character, I managed to connect with him and was guided by his confusion looking for an answer to his problem.
Barry Keoghan as the young Dominic, also did very well, although I did not connect with this character, his interpretation of a young man disturbed by the situation he was living in his house was very well exposed. I had seen this actor work alongside his partner, Colin previously in a psychological thriller called The Killing of a Sacred Deer by director Yorgos Lanthimos; a highly recommended film to watch.
Another character that moved me was Siobh谩n; P谩draic's sister, played by the excellent actress Kerry Condon, I think I had a stronger bond with this character for being a strong person, but only on the outside, because as we watch each scene, we notice a fragility in her; an emptiness, an emptiness, an affliction that she wants to repair, but she is in an internal struggle with herself because of the strong fraternal feelings she has with her brother and her situation with her former friend Colm.
The film is a tragicomedy full of mixed feelings, it makes us go into those fears and thoughts that we sometimes have about life, using humor as an engine to continue on this path and thus not feel so dejected. We put ourselves in the shoes of P谩draic, who, with innocence, tries to understand the decisions and feelings of others. And even if we make some mistakes along the way, and some people distance themselves from us, we will always find in the end the conformity that at some point wanted to escape from our hands.
I found this film to be a cinematic work of art, no wonder it has won several awards, however, I noticed some things that I did not like. I thought the dialogues were excellent, but some of them get lost in the narrative. There are scenes that I didn't understand and they became unnecessarily long; in fact, I think they should have been eliminated. I felt that the film was too long for a story that could have been told in less time, with some additions that have no relevance and just got in the way of the genius of the work. Despite all that, I enjoyed it very much until its sad ending; seasoned with a bit of humor.
En primera instancia, la pel铆cula me parece una obra de arte; con esas im谩genes fotogr谩ficas de paisajes que representan a un verdadero para铆so irland茅s. Los vestuarios y las escenograf铆as est谩n muy bien elaborados y te dejan sumergido por completo en una vida rural isle帽a.
El elenco actoral estuvo fabuloso. Colin Farrel con su interpretaci贸n como P谩draic fue m谩s que convincente para m铆, ya que a pesar de que no ten铆a nada en com煤n con el personaje, logr茅 conectarme con 茅l y era guiado por su confusi贸n buscando respuesta a su problema.
Barry Keoghan como el joven Dominic, tambi茅n lo hizo muy bien, aunque no conect茅 con este personaje, su interpretaci贸n de un joven perturbado por la situaci贸n que viv铆a en su casa estuvo muy bien expuesta. Ya hab铆a visto a este actor trabajar junto a su compa帽ero, Colin anteriormente en un thriller psicol贸gico llamado The Killing of a Sacred Deer del director Yorgos Lanthimos; una pel铆cula muy recomendable de ver.
Otro personaje que me conmovi贸 mucho fue Siobh谩n; la hermana de P谩draic, interpretada por la excelente actriz Kerry Condon, creo que tuve un enlace m谩s fuerte con este personaje por ser una persona fuerte, pero solo en el exterior, ya que a medida que vamos viendo cada escena, notamos una fragilidad en ella; un vac铆o, una aflicci贸n que quiere reparar, pero se encuentra en una lucha interna consigo misma por los fuertes sentimientos fraternos que tiene con su hermano y su situaci贸n con su ex amigo Colm.
La pel铆cula es una tragicomedia plagada de sentimientos encontrados, nos hace adentrarnos en esos miedos y pensamientos que tenemos a veces sobre la vida, usando el humor como motor para continuar con este camino y as铆 no sentirnos tan abatidos. Nos ponemos en los zapatos de P谩draic, que, con inocencia, intentamos comprender las decisiones y sentimientos de los dem谩s. Y aunque cometamos algunas torpezas en el trayecto, y algunas personas se alejen de nosotros, siempre hallaremos al final la conformidad que en alg煤n momento quiso escaparse de nuestras manos.
Esta pel铆cula me pareci贸 una obra de arte cinematogr谩fica, no me extra帽a que haya ganado varios premios, sin embargo, not茅 algunas cosas que no me gustaron. Los di谩logos me parecieron excelentes, pero algunos se pierden dentro de la narrativa. Hay escenas que no comprend铆 y que se hicieron innecesariamente largas; de hecho, pienso que debieron eliminarse. Sent铆 que la pel铆cula era demasiado extensa para una historia que se pudo contar en menos tiempo, con unas a帽adiduras que no tienen relevancia y que solo estorbaban dentro de la genialidad de la obra. A pesar de todo eso, la disfrut茅 mucho hasta su triste final; aderezado con un poco de humor.
The Banshees of Inisherin, is an entertaining film with intense elements. A drama with comedy and a philosophy of life that will make you get into the most abysmal feelings of the characters, accompanied by beautiful photography of Irish rural environment; with excellent shots of the scenery that make you want to be there. The acting performances are wonderful and make you connect with the story, the feelings emanating there, and the generalized life that thrives there. It may become tedious at some point, because of the negative points I have mentioned, but this can be repaired with sublime dialogues full of drama and grace.
A highly recommended movie, and if you've already seen it, let me know in the comments what you thought of it.
The Banshees of Inisherin, es una pel铆cula entretenida con elementos intensos. Un drama con comedia y una filosof铆a de la vida que te har谩 adentrarte a los sentimientos m谩s abismales de los personajes, acompa帽ados por una hermosa fotograf铆a de ambiente rural irland茅s; con excelentes tomas de la escenograf铆a que te hacen querer estar all铆. Las interpretaciones actorales son maravillosas y te hacen conectarte con la historia, los sentimientos all铆 emanados y la vida generalizada que prospera all铆. Puede ser que en alg煤n momento se vuelva tediosa, por lo puntos negativos que he mencionado, pero esto puede repararse con los sublimes di谩logos repletos de drama y gracia.
Una pel铆cula muy recomendable, y si ya la has visto, cu茅ntame en los comentarios que te pareci贸.
