If you loved Esperanza y gloria, try Infierno en el Pacífico
Un puente entre una película que ya has visto y una que casi nadie ha cruzado. Esto es lo que comparten, y lo que la segunda hace que la primera no hace.
Lo que comparten
Both films are directed by John Boorman, and they sit in Drama / War territory. If that's the register that drew you to Esperanza y gloria, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Infierno en el Pacífico is
You bail out over the Pacific in 1944 only to wash up on the same scrap of sand as a Japanese captain. Then the rain starts and neither of you speaks the other’s language. Boorman’s camera lets the silence on that island echo long past the war.
