Oriol Paolo biography

True, unlike more eminent colleagues, Paolo began his career as a filmmaker much later: in the year, when one was already revered almost as a living classic, and the second only released “cards, money, two trunks”, the Spaniard was indulged in debut short films. The next ten years, Paolo stuffed a hand on setting small sketches, and also wrote scripts for television projects. A full -fledged debut in the full meter took place in the year - then the detective thriller “Surption” “The eyes of Julia” in the original was released on large screens.

Our hero attached a hand to his creation as a screenwriter - a couple with the director of the Guel Morales. Already according to this picture, we can say that by that time Oriolo had formed his own handwriting and decided on the topics of interest to him. But all this was a little wrong. In the year, Paolo debuts as an author directing a movie according to his own scenario.

Since then, he created only three full meters, but the scriptwriter’s portfolio has grown both due to participation in other people's projects and thanks to several foreign remakes of his paintings. We will talk about them now. Attention: spoilers are found in the text. Therefore, it is strongly recommended to first watch the films of Orioolo Paolo, so as not to spoil the first impression.

They are worth it. The adventures of the prodigal corpse of the film “Body” look, as it should be for a good detective in the spirit of the old school named after the incomparable lady Agatha Christie, extremely intriguing and confusing.

Inspector Haime Strengthenes is investigating an accident: the night watchman of the local morgue knocked down the car. Starting to clarify the circumstances, the policeman still does not know that the body of a woman named Mike Willaverda disappeared from the morgue at the same night - she died of a heart attack on the arrival of a business trip. Slowly, unraveling the strings of this business, the detective is inclined to the fact that the young widower Alex Uloa is guilty of the death of his rich wife.

This is indicated by the strange and nervous behavior of a man, as well as the fact that he too easily began to talk about his wife in the past tense; The singing does not understand this - having lost his wife in a car accident, he still talks about her in the present tense. In addition, Alfons have a young mistress of Karl. The story with the disappearance of the body leads a man to the idea that the wife has survived - and, most likely, is preparing to avenge him for treason before finally disappear.

He really tried to kill her with the help of the latest toxin, the death of which was like a heart attack. Alex admits to the whole detective and asks to save him and Karl from revenge of an angry woman. However, another curious fact is opened: no Carla exists, and the apartment in which she allegedly lived has been empty for many years. When the police find a corpse of Mikey in the forest, Alex feels unimportant and asks the policeman to call an ambulance, but instead the detective talks about the death of his wife.

A car crashed into it, at the wheel of which there were drunk Mike and Alex. If they had not disappeared from the scene of the accident, but called an ambulance, then the woman would be able to save. But now retaliation overtook Alex: the policeman - along with the daughter, whom the involuntary killer knew how Karl - was added to him by Torsin, who killed the T -shirt. He had to live for several minutes, and the cause of death will be called a heart attack caused by stress from the sudden death of his beloved wife and the disappearance of her body from the morgue.

An interrogation with impartiality was the next film of the author in the year and was called the "Invisible Guest." According to the plot of the young and successful businessman Adrian Doria, Laura was accused of killing his mistress. Despite all the evidence, he violently denies his involvement - and turns to the best lawyer in order to clear his supposedly honest name in a difficult legal battle.

The lawyer is Virginia Gudman, planning to end his career with a loud victory. In the evening on the eve of the hearing, Mrs. Goodman visits the accused, locked in an apartment under house arrest. She convinces him that for successful business, he should know the whole truth, no matter how shocking that may be. The businessman says that they and the victim went to a remote hotel outside the city to meet an anonymous blackmailer.

There was no one in the room, but as soon as they were about to leave, someone attacked him and hit him. Adrian lost consciousness, and having come to his senses, he saw a corpse of Laura and scattered money for a blackmaist. The situation is aggravated by the fact that the windows and doors were locked from the inside, which means that no one could get inside or go unnoticed.

Virginia does not believe the client - she insists that everything should know. Then the businessman admits that the business trip to Paris turned into a date with Laura. Only now, on the way, they had an accident, as a result of which the driver of the oncoming car Daniel Harrido died. Getting to the persuasion of his mistress, the businessman agreed to cover the tracks, rolling the car with his body away and drowning in the lake.The parents of the deceased guy, who accidentally noticed the girl in Adrian's car, began to suspect her first, and then himself in the fact that they know something about the fate of their son.

Soon, the police nominated the version that Daniel robbed bank customers and washed off with money, but in fact it was Laura, who stole his wallet from the car with a credit card. Then Adrian received a message with a photo of the place where he drowned the car. The unknown demanded from him to come to the hotel outside the city with Laura, grabbing money for ransom.

What happened next, Adrian has already told - everything except one detail. In fact, he saw the one who hit him - it was Senor Harridido, the father of the deceased young man. The lawyer is satisfied with such a version. With it, you can develop the tactics of protection, because in that hotel, Senor Harridido, a spouse and mother, who can easily arrange a secret penetration into the room and cover the tracks in case of it.

But for the version with revenge, they need to find the body of Daniel. Adrian shows the desired place on the map, admitting that Daniel was alive when he pushed the car into the lake. Virginia doesn’t care - she understands that her client stipulates both Laura and Senor Harrido to save herself, but she does her job. They are informed that the only witness who saw the businessman on the highway has already been bribed, so the case is practically settled.

The lawyer leaves the room. Left alone, Adrian notes that a microphone and radio transmitter are hidden in a virgin left by Virginia. He sees in the neighboring building of the Senor Harrido, who is observing him, to whom Virginia joins, in fact, his wife, who changed his appearance with a wig and makeup. A real lawyer calls the doorbell until Adrian reaches that he had just admitted to the murder of Daniel under the record.

The time of the time in Kinescope, the third film Oriolo Paolo, is the only filmography that contains supernatural elements in previous works were only hints. According to the plot, the main character Vera, together with her husband David and daughter Gloria, moves to a new house. At dinner, David tells Vera about the tragedy that had played 25 years ago.

In this house, his friend Niko lived, on the day of the fall of the Berlin wall, he witnessed how the neighbor killed his wife. Frightened, the boy ran out into the street, where he died under the wheels of a passing car. And the arrested neighbor admitted how he planned to get rid of the body. Waking up at night in a new house, the heroine notes that the old TV, which remained from previous residents, works.

Through the camera connected to it, she arranges a kind of telephone with a boy Niko from year to year. Having detained him not to run on the road with a warning with a warning, the heroine saves the child from premature death. But a spatio-temporal continuum does not forgive intervention in its measured move. In the morning, a woman wakes up not at home at all, but in a hospital where she works, only now everyone addresses her not as a nurse, but as a head of the surgeon.

Worse - at the school where Gloria is studying, no one knows either Vera or her daughter. Turning to the police, the woman tells the incredible story to the inspector Leyra. They visit David, but in this temporary line he has a different fate. Then Vera decides to find Nico-the boy once repeated that he had talked on TV with a woman from the future, but no one believed him.

The testimony of faith about the place of burial of the body help to re -open the case. In gratitude for the help, the inspector gives her the address of the hotel, where a woman can find the grown Niko. However, there Vera finds his husband David with his mistress - he is cheating on his current wife. The heroine forces the ex -spouse to use his official position to find the boy Nico, after which he goes to him.

Arriving at the address, she understands that the inspector Leyrah is the same Niko. Even more-he is her husband in this temporary line: dreaming of seeing a woman from the TV again, who once saved his life, he accidentally meets her on the train. When the adult Niko returns, she informs him that now his turn is to save her, after which he is thrown off the balcony and is broken to death.

The guy has no choice but to get the old TV and contact him from the past, while the raging thunderstorm providing an open portal ended. He warns himself that you should not look for a girl from the future. Waking up in his temporary line, Vera understands that her husband is cheating on her, and also - that the murder of his wife’s neighbor has not yet been disclosed. She goes to the old cattle -beam, where the old man planned to bury the body - and finds a suitcase with bones there, after which she calls the police.

Inspector Leyra, unlike the heroine, also does not recognize her to the call with the criminalists, he will not recognize her. But she smiles at him and promises that he will definitely remember. Motives and leitmotifs are unlikely to be mistaken if he says that the main leitmotif of the work of Oriolo Paolo is the notorious “crime and punishment”. Unlike the poor St. Petersburg student Rodion Raskolnikov and other depressive and psychological drill, his characters do not seek to repent of everything.

Just the opposite - they actively and inventively evade responsibility, notice traces, lie to the last. Repentance is not what can be found in their souls. But at the same time, the author cherishes and pursues the idea of ​​inevitable retaliation. Sometimes not so much legal, from a human point of view, as a biblical, notorious “eye for an eye”. Heroes that confront the insidious and selfish evil carry even greater cunning, even greater insidiousness, even greater lies, if necessary, all in the name of a good goal.

In the films of the Spanish filmmaker there is no place for fatalism and karmic retribution. Even when the forces not subject to human understanding come into advantage, the obligation to punish the villains still lies on the shoulders of people. And this makes Paolo's paintings as realistic and even optimistic as possible, despite the general gloomy tone. Another distinguishing feature is a cunning scenario dosed to give information.

Paolo likes to play with the expectations of the audience, forcing them to believe in something, and then turning everything upside down. And it cannot be said that for this there are no prerequisites - the plot twists are not like sudden “roots in the bushes”, they are logical, due to the last frame in a single way, which can be seen when viewed. Only now, not everyone will agree to watch Spanish thrillers for the second time.
