REVIEW OF 'THE CLAN'



Crime cinema is one of the most successful genres in our national cinematographic industry. A big budget is not necessary to tell the story. 

With ‘The Clan’, Trapero (its director) decided to tell a real story about Archímedes Puccio and his family back in 1980, a case that moved the country with its cruelty and sadism. 

To do this work, Trapero invited actors who surprised the audience with their roles, like Guillermo Francella. 

The latest was believed to be a wrong choice to play Archímedes because people is used to seeing him playing comedy. Thanks to that factor, his interpretation is surprisingly good. He achieves to show his best during the two hours of film. 

Another big surprise was Peter Lanzani, an actor who is ready to ditch the role of a high school kid and become the traumatized Alessandro Puccio. If you still underestimate him, you better watch this movie. 

The plot of the film revolves about the story of the Puccio family, and gives an insight of the first five years of 1980, when the family turned into a clan dedicated to crime. 

The house where the film was shot is not the original one, but the looks, cars and even the money are the same.

If you haven’t seen this movie, you definitely must watch it. It has everything that needs to be the next Oscar for our country.
