Sympathy for Delicious

Drama / komedie, USA, 2010, 96 min.



Sympathy for Delicious marks acclaimed actor Mark Ruffalo's first foray into directing. This inspired and unusual film tells the story of Dean O'Dwyer (Christopher Thornton), also known as "Delicious D," an up-and-coming DJ on the underground music scene in Los Angeles. When a motorcycle accident leaves Dean paralyzed, he abandons his turntables for a wheelchair as his once promising career disappears before his eyes. Forced to live out of his car on skid row, Dean begins his descent into depression when he meets Father Joe Roselli (Mark Ruffalo), a passionate young priest. Father Joe introduces Dean to the world of faith-healing, an unlikely way for him to begin his quest to walk again. He soon discovers that he possesses the otherworldly power to heal people, but in an odd twist of fate, he is utterly unable to heal himself. Despite Father Joe's warnings, Dean angrily decides to use his newfound gift for fame and fortune. He joins a rock band led by charismatic front man The Stain (Orlando Bloom) with bassist Ariel (Juliette Lewis), and manager Nina Hogue (Laura Linney). But his newfound notoriety is unable to cure the hurt that encompasses his life. To find true healing, Dean must ultimately confront his worst demons and come to terms with his own humanity.

Komentář k filmu Režijní debut Marka Ruffala je po technické stránce zručně zvládnutý, horší to je již z obsahem a některými nelogičnostmi. Film je dle mého názoru velmi propagandistický ve prospěch katolické církve a pro ateisty téměř nesnesitelný. Už i námět filmu, kdy Dj, který je upevněn na invalidní vozík, dostane od boha dar a vyléčí veškeré nemoci, úrazy apod., jen sebe nedokáže, je přinejmenším divný, ale nejhorší je konec filmu, který diváka svou nelogičností téměř srazí do kolen, ale to je jen možná tím, že nejsem věřící.
