Maskuline film

"Kan du ikke anbefale nogle mandefilm?" lød opfordringen.

Hvis det blot er et ønske om simpel tju-bang, er mine anbefalinger nok uinteressante. De fleste serier  - John Wick, Fast&furious, Bond, Bourne, Mission Impossible osv. osv. - burde kunne tilfredsstille den kløe.

Mændene er gode venner. Skurken er ond. Damen er dejlig. Chefen er dum  - men siges imod. Der er masser af krimi, konflikt og pistol.

Men man kan også tage det et lille nøk op.

Der findes også tju-bang-film om mænd, der lever (og formentlig dør) efter et sæt regler, de ikke fraviger. Uanset modstanden

Klassikere her er :

Michael Mann ⟲: Heat, Collateral, The Insider, Theif

Mere moderne (og sadistiske):

S. Craig Zahler ⟲: Bone Tomahawk, Braw in Cell Block 99, Dragged Across Concrete (uartig film ⟲ med Mel Gibson ⟲ og  Michael Jai White ⟲)

Taylor Sheridan ⟲: Wind River, Hell or High Water, Sicario (spoilers ⟲)

Historierne i de 10 film er ret ens:

“Down these mean streets a man must go who is not himself mean, who is neither tarnished nor afraid. He is the hero; he is everything. He must be a complete man and a common man and yet an unusual man. He must be, to use a rather weathered phrase, a man of honor—by instinct, by inevitability, without thought of it, and certainly without saying it. He must be the best man in his world and a good enough man for any world.

“He will take no man’s money dishonestly ⟲ and no man’s insolence without a due and dispassionate revenge. He is a lonely man and his pride is that you will treat him as a proud man or be very sorry you ever saw him.

“The story is this man’s adventure in search of a hidden truth, and it would be no adventure if it did not happen to a man fit for adventure. If there were enough like him, the world would be a very safe place to live in, without becoming too dull to be worth living in.” Raymond Chandler om sin detektiv Philip Marlowe ⟲

Mindst halvdelen burde lige nu kunne fås på danske Netflix, Viaplay og Prime - resten måske med lidt VPN-hjælp ⟲ eller noget tålmodighed.
