\"charlie_Banks_Poster\"<\/p>\n

Somehow your past always finds its way into your future – particularly if it\u2019s something, shall we say, questionable, that you may have done or didn\u2019t do.\u00a0 And even moreso if it\u2019s something from your youth.\u00a0 Let\u2019s face it.\u00a0 When we\u2019re young and in those angst-filled teen years, although at the time we think we know everything, we don\u2019t, and quite often worry more about being labeled, branded, cast off, and not being \u201caccepted\u201d rather than doing what\u2019s right or wrong, all of which provides us a valuable education in the future when the actions come up to bite you in the butt.\u00a0 Such is the case with CHARLIE BANKS who gets the education of a lifetime during his freshman year of college; an education that is carefully crafted and examined thanks to the skill of first time feature director, Fred Durst (yep – THAT Fred Durst, frontman to Limp Bizkit).<\/p>\n

A likeable, intelligent, but nerdy guy, Charlie, with his 70’s Brady Bunch \u201cfro\u201d, slight overbite, timid timid bookwormish persona and rather \u201cbourgeois\u201d Greenwich Village lifestyle has only one real friend, Danny.\u00a0 Best friend and protector, although with a privileged lifestyle similar to Charlie, Danny is street savvy and streetwise, even at the tender age of 10 or 11.\u00a0 And of course, then there\u2019s Mick.\u00a0 The outcast of the elementary school age group, Mick smokes, chases women (and I mean, women) hangs out with gangs and gives every indication of being a cross between a bad boy Tony Manero, Stanley Kowalski and a real life Marlon Brando in his youth.\u00a0 Danny can hold his own with Mick and, in fact, calls him a friend.\u00a0 On the other hand, Charlie, while fascinated with Mick\u2019s characterization and behavior, is petrified of him and see his great propensity for violence.<\/p>\n

\"2009-03-31_141439\"<\/p>\n

Fast forward a few years to high school and Charlie\u2019s fears about Mick are witnessed first hand as they meet up again at a party where Mick\u2019s personality turns to the dark side and he beats up two guys, stomping the face of one.\u00a0 Fearful for himself and for anyone that may come up against Mick, Charlie goes to the police who, based solely on Charlie\u2019s eyewitness account, arrest Mick.\u00a0 But, fear, a need to belong and not wanting to branded a \u201crat\u201d or \u201csnitch\u201d or get on Mick\u2019s bad side, Charlie recants his story to the police and Mick is released.\u00a0 Luckily for Charlie, Mick doesn\u2019t know who was responsible for his arrest in the first place.\"2009-03-31_141448\"<\/p>\n

Fast forward a few more years to college.\u00a0 Danny and Charlie are doing well with collegiate life.\u00a0 Studious, chasing well-to-do blue-blooded preppie society girls, participating in the requisite partying, life couldn\u2019t be better.\u00a0\u00a0 Charlie is enamored with auburn haired and beauteous Mary.\u00a0 Always perfect in her pearls, she may look like a porcelain doll but has a carefree and adventurous spirit and outlook on life.\u00a0\u00a0 Danny has his eye on Mary\u2019s best friend, Nia, who comes from Greek wealth and aristocracy but acts like the girl next door.\u00a0 Mentoring all of them is Leo, and over-the-top, flamboyant, free-wheeling spendthrift who thinks nothing of dropping $200,000 on a boat (think Robert Downey, Jr.\u2019s character in \u201cLess Than Zero\u201d) for a weekend sail or calling in his private jet to fly the group to a weekend in the Hamptons.\u00a0\u00a0 But this idyllic life changes for everyone when Mick suddenly appears on scene.\"2009-03-31_141550\"<\/p>\n

Allegedly wanting to get out of the city for some fresh air, Mick called upon his old friendship with Danny to wrangle an invite to bunk with the boys for a few days, much to the chagrin of Charlie who now sees his past meeting up with the future.\u00a0 Does Mick now know that Charlie was responsible for his arrest so many years ago?\u00a0 Is Mick here for revenge?\u00a0 Why is Mick here?\u00a0 Panicked, afraid and curious, Charlie\u2019s once carefree college life takes on a completely new tone, particularly when Mick is taken under Leo\u2019s wing and turns \u201cpreppie\u201d and Mary shifts her attentions from Charlie to Mick.\"2009-03-31_141538\"<\/p>\n

Surprisingly, Mick fits right in with the \u201cbourgeois\u201d collegiate life and the distance and trepidation between Charlie and Mick seems to disappear.\u00a0 Charlie sees a change in Mick that is encouraging and endearing, but most importantly, Mick sees hope for his own life where he once had none.\u00a0 But, like I said, the past has a way of catching up with the present and it doesn\u2019t take long for the truth to rear it\u2019s ugly head and Mick\u2019s true purpose with this \u201cnew leaf\u201d of life is revealed, forcing Charlie to now face his past with brutal honesty.<\/p>\n

While the film is about \u201cCharlie Banks\u201d, I have to start with the character of Mick and Jason Ritter\u2019s performance.\u00a0\u00a0 Ritter blew me out the water.\u00a0 He is fantastic and, dare I say, is already far superior to his father as an actor. His range of emotion is incredible and his ability to turn on a dime with personality changes shows his ability to hone in on a very careful balancing act. Clearly, he drew on Travolta’s Tony Manero for his character influence (particularly in “Staying Alive” – the sequel to “Saturday Night Fever”) so it comes as no surprise that Ritter\u2019s nickname on set was \u201cManero.\u201d\u00a0 He commands every scene with an intensity and magnetism from which you can\u2019t turn away. \"2009-03-31_141642\"<\/p>\n

I was disappointed with Jesse Eisenberg.\u00a0 Although perfectly cast as the nerdy bookworm, Charlie Banks, having also just seen him in the upcoming \u201cAdventureland\u201d, he seems to be a one trick pony.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 He has one vapid painful look 90% of the time and no matter what role, always looks unhappy and put upon. Even in an interview he sits quite tacit and unanimated.\u00a0 There is one scene, however, that sells Eisenberg and that is when Charlie walks into the dorm room only to find Mick there with Danny.\u00a0 That is Eisenberg\u2019s shining moment as his shock turns to trepidation and fright.\u00a0\u00a0 A very tacit scene where Eisenberg is concerned but emotionally charged with his facial expressiveness.<\/p>\n

\"2009-03-31_141527\"Eva Amurri just keeps getting better with every performance, adding more texturization to each character that she\u00a0 portrays and here is no different.\u00a0\u00a0 As Mary, she illuminates the screen, radiating pure energy. And may I just say, that girl can really show terror and scream!!!!! And do it convincingly!!<\/p>\n

Written by Peter Elkoff, I must confess I am somewhat disappointed with certain aspects of the script, given Elkoff\u2019s excellence with \u201cUgly Betty\u201d and \u201cSix Degrees.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 There is more of a vignette feel and lack of cohesiveness as to the individual stories of the principals and their interlacing.\u00a0 Screening the film, I felt as if each character and many of the scenes were written separately and then \u201cpasted\u201d together.\u00a0\u00a0 The story just feels like it’s missing something; like there is a gaping hole and the piece don\u2019t always fit.\u00a0 A great sense of disconnect. Leo, just drops off the map and so does Nia, giving us no real resolution to their characters, especially in light of their significance and importance to the ultimate crescendo.\u00a0 Where Elkoff excels, however, is with the character of Mick and the relationship between Mick and Charlie.\u00a0 I don’t think the film is as much about Charlie’s education, but Mick’s. Charlie always knew Mick\u2019s true colors and time and time again was proven right in his feelings, but Mick is the one that really goes through the learning process, and is given a hope that we see and feel.\u00a0 But the tension and dynamic that is created in the reunion dorm scene is worth the price of admission on all counts – the performances of Ritter and Eisenberg, the scripting of the scene and Fred Durst\u2019s direction – all are superb.<\/p>\n

\"2009-03-31_141624\"<\/p>\n

As for Durst, first and foremost, kudos for eliciting superlative performances from Ritter and Amurri.\u00a0 As for the overall film, Durst has a very discerning and perceptive eye.\u00a0 The pacing is well conceived and artful, with a deliberate progression, although I would have liked a more explosive climax.\u00a0 That shortcoming, I believe, is due to some of those\u00a0 \u201cgaping holes\u201d in the script.\u00a0 While Durst has impressive credits as a music video director, a feature film is a quite different experience and with CHARLIE BANKS, one would be hard pressed to believe this is his first feature.\u00a0 The visual look is so important to a coming of age film of this era and ilk and Chad Detwiler’s production design and adherence to period is exemplary, as is the costuming of John Glaser and Elizabeth Shelton.\u00a0 The icing on the cake is the soundtrack – a must have for any music collection.\u00a0 Nostalgic, period perfect, number one hits.\u00a0 Boy would I like to know the music budget on this film!<\/p>\n

Societal commentary, some magnetic performances, life lessons learned – or not, coming of age, trust, friendship.\u00a0 THE EDUCATION OF CHARLIE BANKS is an education for us all.<\/p>\n
