Limited Movie Runs
GHOSTS OF CITE SOLEIL
Cite Soleil may be Haiti's most violent slum, but the gangs infesting it are thugs, and Asger Leth's film about them is as irrational as the lives he so weakly chronicles. His refusal to impose a point of view upon his subject results in a portrait that is as unflattering as the most extreme anti-gang propaganda. Of course the gang members see the film, the camera itself, as an opportunity for self-glorification. Their identification with rap stars from the States is so complete that they appropriate their names (one guy calls himself 2Pac), and they claim kinship with Wyclef Jean because he wrote a song about their ghetto. That song, which plays over the final credits, has more to say about Cite Soleil than the entire film that precedes it. Dutch director Leth is so enamored of the ugliness of it all that he doesn't even try to penetrate the noisy bravado that obscures the patches of truth that lie beneath the surface. (Bill White)
