magonzalez-15762 A Screaming Man takes place in Chad, during a period of civil unrest among the population. The story focuses around the main character of Champ, an accomplished former swimmer. He makes his living working as a pool attendant for a hotel. His son then becomes drafted into the army after he refuses to pay to keep him out anymore. The story then follows as this man with the guilty conscience goes back to save his son from life as a soldier. Unfortunately, he dies of his wounds. I loved the directing for this movie. I thought it was phenomenal and completely different from American movies. There was a lot less fast paced action and it felt more like a real life situation than a movie. I also thought the title was a nice touch even though the man never screams. It felt more like he was internally dying.

Nihil A Screaming Man in my opinion was not a very great movie. I did not enjoy this much quite as much as the other ones because it was very slow. I understand that slow movies still have a meaning and a story behind them but it did not seem so as much in this film. It was not that clear to me how Abdel manages to take his dads job. How did it happen? What did he do? Because I know they called Adam into to office to ask if two worker were to many people for the pool and he said no it was a good amount of people. So I am assuming Abdel was like I think two people is one to many. The movies was full of selfish characters to me. Abdel took his dads job and his dad gets sent to work at the gate. Adam is not a fan of this and then gets him drafted into the civil war. This means that Adam gets his job back. He basically murdered his own son by sending him into the civil war. You can tell the movie is not an American movie y how slow it is. American movies move at a much faster rate. While I was watching the film I noticed globalization, the women from China was the head of a hotel in Chad. If I was to put myself in the shoes of one of the characters. I would have made it so Abdel as told the women from China that they needed two workers by the pool because that would have solved many conflicts throughout the film. If I could have changed the ending I would have made it so that the son does not die and that the family gets back together and Abdel's son is born.

brszasz "A Screaming Man" had some compelling scenes, but much of the movie was very slow to develop. I am aware that African movies have long silences during different times of their movies, but it seemed to be excessive at times. Some different, short scenes seemed very unnecessary with the lack of actual relevant talk about the true message and reason for the movie. For example, when they were eating dinner, the scene seemed to simply just drag on with long silences and uninteresting small talk. It was a little weird how "Champ" decided to send his son off to the war. Then, he wanted to go back and rescue his son later on in the movie. I, also, was not a huge fan of the ending. I found it weird that he found his son dead when driving home. After that, he laid with his son's dead body watching the water. Though it may have been symbolic, I was a little creeped out by the whole idea. There were also a lot of questions that went unanswered. The whole war got brushed under the rug when it appeared to be getting pretty serious. People were fleeing the country due to the big war, but nothing was mentioned about what happened.

Jack In A Screaming Man a father and his son share a close bond. The father loves the pool. He was a champion in 1965 and his son and him share a job as the pool attendant. The father's life gets turned upside down when the hotel decides to cut his job and make him man the front gates. He hates his new job and has jealousy towards his son, who got to keep the pool job. I believe the father hates losing his pool job so much that he gives his son to the army. I thin he did this as an attempt to get his job back. What the father didn't know was that his son was expecting a child. As soon as he hears this he becomes very upset. I think the movie is titled A Screaming Man because the father is screaming on the inside when he finds that out.
