El cazador

I kept getting distracted by the main characters huge uni-brow.

A subject well managed of something society don't want to see.

The subject make us sick but the movie presents it with all the due respect.

Great photography and environment.

Berger usually gets away with hiring so-so actors by engaging with his camera work and its eroticism...which would have been extremely uncomfortable in a movie like this. For that reason, it makes no sense for him to try to tackle this subject with the same resources. Long shots, lifeless actors and open endings do not mix well. He does not get away with artsy shots and beautiful cinematography. Kudos to the editor for managing to tell a story with limited resources.

...but this is just boring without a reason, without a cause. It's a short film, fed into a movie. A story what can be exciting, but it's just made boring.

No, art is just not this...

I have watched all but one of Berger's films (2015's 'Mariposa'). I really liked 'Plan B' and 'Hawaii' both which count on very good perfomances of their lead actors, specially Manuel Vignau. 'Absent' and 'Taekwondo' are not as good as these I first mentioned, but are okay. 'The Blond One', however, is just a bad one. After watching 'Young Hunter' I now just think that Berger might be becoming self indulgent. His formulas are just becoming too repetitive whereas his actors are becoming less and less charimastic. If you're gonna play a 'thriller-like' take like this one you simply need good acting or else your movie is just gonna feel souless. The writing here is just not very good either. It feems like he had a bunch of shots in his mind but didn't know how to connect them or where to take the history afterwards. Juan Pablo Cestaro looks like he doesn't know what to do with his character. The tension the film tried to build up is artificial.
