\"choke_poster\"Chuck Palahniuk may be a familiar name to all you bookworms out there.\u00a0 He may also be a familiar name to all you moviegoers thanks to a twisted little film called \u201cFight Club\u201d which was adapted for the screen based on Palahniuk\u2019s novel of the same name,\u00a0 his first.\u00a0 In either case, his legion of fans are relentless, devoted and attentive to ever period and comma.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Often described as a nihilist, Palahniuk\u2019s writing style is exceedingly detailed, minimalistic with limited vocabulary and short sentences, punctuated with narrative styling; a type of writer whose works are not often easily translated cinematically but when they are, the result is engrossing, entertaining and as with his latest adaptation for the big screen, CHOKE, twistedly funny.\u00a0 Written and directed by Clark Gregg, the film is true to the source material but as with any adaptation, has at least a few changes – in this case minor – which in the long run make this film better than the book!<\/p>\n

Victor Mancini is a med school drop out – – and con artist.\u00a0 By day he works as a \u201chistorical interpreter\u201d (aka actor) at a tourist attraction 18th Century Colonial village where he plays \u201cthe backbone of Colonial America – an indentured Irish servant.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 Not merely a reenactment, the players must \u201clive\u201d the life and be in costume at all times when on the village premises.\u00a0 Not something that comes easily to Victor.\u00a0\u00a0 However, the gig has its perks – comely young women dressed as milkmaids and gentlewomen who are at his beckon call, or not.\u00a0\u00a0 By night, his life is a little more interesting as he works a \u201cchoking\u201d con on unsuspecting restaurant patrons, \u201cGood Samaritans\u201d, who he then befriends after they save his life and actually makes a very nice income thanks to their generosity who are determined to keep Victor in their lives.\u00a0 Such a nice boy, dontcha know.<\/p>\n

But nice in Victor\u2019s case needs to be qualified as Victor has another unusual aspect to his personality.\u00a0 He is a sex addict.\u00a0 Big time.\u00a0 Anytime, anywhere, anyone – and that includes hallways and bathrooms at his 12 step meetings for sex addiction.<\/p>\n

Another dimension of Victor\u2019s persona is his mother Ida Mancini.\u00a0 Now in the throws of dementia, we quickly learn that in Victor\u2019s eyes, Ida is the cause of every \u201cmess\u201d in his life.\u00a0 He quit medical school to work to pay for her to be in a private medical facility.\u00a0 His choking performances are also allegedly done as a means of income to care for Ida.\u00a0 And as for his sexual addiction, according to his best friend and fellow addict Denny, Ida is the cause of that, too.<\/p>\n

To hear Anjelica Huston who plays Ida describe the underlying nature of Victor\u2019s troubles is fascinating.\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cWhen he was a small child, she did in fact kidnap him.\u00a0 They do this ritual in department stores and so forth where she warns him about people who might be calling on the intercom, aliases and so forth.\u00a0 She is a rather unusual woman.\u00a0 She is a kind of disaster theorist.\u00a0 She is always warning him about hideous things that are going to happen to him and can possibly happen to him were it not for her great protection.\u00a0 Of course, she is the mother from hell.\u00a0 A minor caveat.\u201d\u2028But somewhere along the way, something happens to Victor.\u00a0 He meets his mother\u2019s new physician, Dr. Paige, who has some rather strange recommendations for what will cure Ida – and it involves sex, impregnation, a chapel, and an old dairy of Ida\u2019s written in Italian.\u00a0 Did we say sex?\u00a0 Oh yeah.\u00a0 Victor\u2019s in.\u00a0 (Pun intended folks!)<\/p>\n

An interesting casting choice, Sam Rockwell tackles Victor Mancini with wry aplomb.\u00a0 He is engaging, energetic, animated and even hapless, but he also exudes a sexy loneliness in his scenes with Kelly Mac Donald that just pop from the screen.\u00a0 I personally loved Brad William Henke\u2019s Denny.\u00a0 This is the perfect male best friend.\u00a0 He is loyal, supportive and always tries to not only better himself but his friend, in this case Victor.\u00a0 Henke\u2019s Denny transforms to serve as a moral compass in the film.\u00a0 He is refreshingly enjoyable and accomplished scene stealer!\u00a0\u00a0 Kelly MacDonald is luminous as Dr. Paige.\u00a0 Often ethereal with her soft spoken whispers, she has a nunlike presence which bodes for big laughs while having sex with Victor in the church chapel.\u00a0 And as you will come to find out, Dr. Paige harbors a huge secret, a fact not lost on MacDonald\u2019s performance and body language which hints without revealing until the time is right.\u00a0\u00a0 And as if writing and directing isn\u2019t enough, Clark Gregg gives one of the most ribald and hysterical performances of his career as Lord High Charlie, the manager of the Colonial Village.\u00a0 A real surprise is a cameo by Heather Burns as a rape fantasist who has a very explicit set of rules.\u00a0 I couldn\u2019t stop laughing during her \u201crape fantasy\u201d with Rockwell\u2019s Victor.\u00a0 Burns and Rockwell are irreverently funny.\u00a0 And don\u2019t miss a witty performance from Gregg\u2019s father-in-law, Oscar winner Joel Grey, as Phil, leader of Victor\u2019s 12 step group.<\/p>\n

But the real coup is Anjelica Huston as Ida, as she herself says, \u201cThe mother from hell.\u201d\u00a0 She is delicious although she doesn\u2019t look old or decrepit enough to be in the declining stages of dementia – obviously a shortcoming of the make-up department.\u00a0 Becoming her calling card of late, Huston doesn\u2019t know what appeals to her about playing a sexy weird twisted mother.\u00a0 \u201cI find them more interesting than the bland hockey mom of present day choice.\u00a0 I think it\u2019s basically they are fun to play, these parts.\u00a0 They are different.\u00a0 Off the wall.\u00a0 It\u2019s always a lot more fun to play kind of strangely sexy than it is to play at home perky and perfect.\u201d\u00a0Thanks to flashbacks we see a young vibrant sexy Huston engaged in Ida\u2019s \u201cMata Hari\u201d, much of which is played for laughs to great success and strength and on which the story heavily relies.\u00a0 A voracious reader, I was surprised to learn that Huston wasn\u2019t familiar with the novel \u201cChoke.\u201d\u00a0 \u201cI have been drawn to Chuck Palahniuk\u2019s work but I think it\u2019s more for the boys.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t a book that I was attracted to by reading the reviews.\u00a0 I read \u201cFight Club\u201d after I saw the movie. I think Chuck Palahniuk is a great brain.\u201d\u00a0 She has now changed her mind and relishes Palahniuk\u2019s words.<\/p>\n

Clark Gregg has done a superb job not only with directing this film, but with adapting Palahniuk\u2019s story about our insecure antihero Victor and the foibles of his life.\u00a0\u00a0 With a comfortable blend of narration and dialogue, more life is breathed into the film than that in the book.\u00a0 Although the very nature of Palahniuk\u2019s material draws strong comparison to \u201cFight Club\u201d, Gregg easily overcomes the similarities with his concentration on heart and love (often Oedipal) which parallels Huston\u2019s take on the story, \u201cthe endless and hapless search for love as substituted in Victor Mancini\u2019s life by food, the whole choking thing, this whole kind of possessive that the mother holds him in her thrall by shoving food down his throat, his reaction is choking and then later on in life the tables turn and then she is rejecting it.\u00a0 So they never come together at the same time, these two people.\u00a0 A deeply unhealthy relationship.\u201d\u00a0 Both the narrative and the dialogue are often more than hilarious, guaranteed to garner genuine guffaws of laughter.<\/p>\n

Challenging for Gregg was creating the characters and dialogue for the 12 step meetings.\u00a0 It was something he \u201cforgot about\u201d until he realized there are supposed to be \u201cpeople talking at these things.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The look on his face, even today, regaling this writer\u2019s horror, was itself hysterically funny.<\/p>\n

Sadly, a great omission to the film is expansion on a sub-plot involving Denny, a tower of rocks\u00a0 and a stripper with whom he is in love.\u00a0 The groundwork was laid for this sequence to be an important part of the plotline, but it never came to fruition.\u00a0 The simplistic beauty of that relationship is one that I would have liked to have seen explored.<\/p>\n

From a directorial and technical standpoint the film is sharply and often brightly toned adding to the emotional edge of the story.\u00a0 Cinematographer Tim Orrr handlely balances the crisp and colorful exteriors – and even interior wall murals at Ida\u2019s hospital – with the dark and dismal psychoses of the characters.\u00a0 A 25 day shoot in New Jersey – at a one time mental facility no less, completes the canvas.<\/p>\n

Although described as a dark comedy, CHOKE is anything but dark.\u00a0 Twisted, funny, strange, endearingly sweet, sincere, sexy – yes.\u00a0 But nothing that won\u2019t get you CHOKE-D up with laughter and unbridled enjoyment<\/p>\n
