Brad Pitt / Cate Blanchett - Babel (DVD)

Nominated for seven Oscars (including “Best Picture”), and with a strong cast headed up by Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett: this superior drama begins with several seemingly unrelated events that take place around the world…before the skilful storyline starts drawing them all together.

In the desert of southern Morocco, a father buys a rifle that he gives to his two sons to use to keep the jackals away from his goats.

Richard and Susan (Pitt and Blanchett) are on an uneasy vacation together as they try to reconcile differences, following the death of their third (and youngest) child.

A Mexican nanny, working in America, impulsively decides to take the two young children in her care to Mexico, for a family wedding.

In Japan, a rebellious teenage girl is displaying attitude problems. Traumatised by her mother’s recent suicide, she has not uttered a word ever since…and is bitter towards her father and every other male she encounters.

This is movie craft at its finest…and not all of the events are shown to us (the audience) in the order in which they take place. However, this simply serves to enhance the drama(s) even more!

A tragic accident in Morocco sets off a chain of events that will link four groups of people who, divided by cultural differences and vast distances, will discover a shared destiny that ultimately connects them. Brad Pitt, Academy Award winner Cate Blanchett and Gael Garcia Bernal lead an outstanding international ensemble cast in this breakthrough film.
