The Limits of Control,
Tilda Swinton
In “The Limits of Control,” Tilda Swinton’s character says something along the lines of: good films are those that resemble dreams you’re not sure you really had. That’s exactly what this movie was: a film I wasn’t sure I really saw.
“The Limits of Control” tells the story of a reserved loner (Isaach De Bankolé) and his bizarre journey across Spain, where he attempts to complete an illegal mission. Throughout the film, Bankolé meets a range of different people who help him complete his job. If this sounds vague, that’s because this film is sort of vague. But the performances are unique, to say the least.
For example, it wouldn’t be surprising if Bankolé, the protagonist, had give or take 40 lines throughout the entire film (including one-liners), which is unusual for most big-name productions. That being said, he pulls off an in-depth character who practices tai chi every morning and always asks for two expressos in separate cups. These little details add depth to all the characters in this movie with little dialogue.
