Deuda (2004)
Lanata clears debt's bumpy road
Quotes of "Lanata clears...",published in the Buenos Aires Herald by Marcelo Garcia Avila. "Jorge Lanata blends two qualities difficult to find together in the argentine media:the sharp eye that makes the journalist plus sensitivity that makes the human being""In Deuda,Who owes who?,Lanata is and is not Michael Moore (this is a comparison no reviewer of this film can get away without)On the one hand he is the best Michael Moore,the Moore of Bowling for Columbine (...)Like Moore,Lanata is the main character of his own documentary (...) but unlike Moore,whose queries lead to a cynical view of US society,Lanata never fully gets into slashing anu fundamentally-wrong Argentine essence.There are many Moore-type villains in Deuda,many Charlton Hestons,if you want.But ultimately,the enemy is well within (as if the real question were not who did what ,but what AM I doing with this),and the waters are parted between those who can and those who can't sleep at night.Who owes who?"
