DVD Reviews of Trailer Park Boys - The Movie
DVD Review: Gorgeously shot with very lovable Canucks
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm always the first to flinch whenever the term "white tr*sh" is used, but I accidentally stumbled upon this movie, and it was all I hoped Rhett Ellis's novella "The Greatest White Trash Love Story Ever Told" to be.
There is joy, crime, a lot of booze, smoking, trailers, strip joints, a gang of colorful characters, and some unexpected sweet moments of tenderness.
I was wondering about the quirky comedy timing that struck a note of familiarity, and the moment I saw the prisoners playing hockey (using lunch trays as protective shields and gallon milk jugs as hocky masks) it immediately became apparent this is no American prison.
Ricky and Julian are Halifax trailer park buddies who land in prison after a heist that begins with an ATM machine and ends with...a backseat full of cartons of cigarettes. They get educated in the brick and learn about "the Big Dirty," that one job that will retire their career as criminals. In characteristic downsizing that is a necessity in trailer park living, the duo downsizes their version of the Big Dirty into something even less substantial than ATM machines. Along the way Ricky tries to regain the interest of his girlfriend, who strays to become a stripper while he was in the joint, while Julian falls in love with another stripper. All this while the gang has to deal with an evil trailer park supervisor who is a former cop. As the story goes on, it becomes apparent that Ricky is more obsessed with returning to prison to head his cell mates' hockey team against that of the prison guards'.
Julian, with his ubiquitous glass of rum and coke (I actually have friends like that) and Ricky, with hilarious pompadour make a good and convincing team for a reason: they are childhood friends in real life as well. Throw in the entire gang (many who have been involved in each other's projects in the past) and you get a solid rapport behind the TV series that led to this movie.
The film is also shot in beautiful 16mm color film, interspersed with handhelds, resulting in something that is a cross between Oliver Stone's Natural Born Killers and some of William Eggleston's most sublime moments on dye transfer.
Fans of Canadian comedy (who can ever forget Boys in the Hall?) will definitely have a good feel for this film. As for the rest of the folks who insist that art can only be measured using classic literature as a yardstick, they will do well to note that which the canon of Western literature itself has mined for comical and dramatic material over hundreds of years: the color and richness of the human story in the nether regions of society.
