American Quality

Rating: 10/10 (18 June 2014)

What is the most important of this great movie? ALL; their powerful performances, the narrative of David O. Russell, the original script, costumes, production design, this movie is funny, mature, intelligent, realistic, and exciting.
Not easy to mix comedy and drama, but ... Russell manages to mix comedy and drama in an elegant and dynamic way; the criminal environment is very convincing, the whole plot is unpredictable and interesting.
Each character is fascinating, Irving Rosenfeld is a swindler, married with a beautiful lover, this man is ambitious, with the need to progress in life; Richard "Richie" DiMaso is an FBI agent, very intelligent, this man wants to succeed in his career; Sydney Prosser (Lady Edith Greensly) is an exotic woman with bad luck in life, but manages to be hopeful, she is the most skilled of all; Rosalyn Rosenfeld is a manipulative housekeeper, this sexy young is very cynical; Carmine Polito is a decent politician, this family man is entangled with the mafia.
This perfect movie is very sassy, very fine, wonderful in everything; the plot is not resolved with violence, no character comes to kill, the smartest characters survive, everyone moves their convenience, the frame has a beautiful romance, humor is refreshing.
Christian Bale is perfect, Bradley Cooper is outstanding; Amy Adams is wonderful, beautiful and spectacular; Jennifer Lawrence is extraordinary, this girl is great; Jeremy Renner is very effective.
This delightful film has memorable scenes: the kiss of Rosalyn and Sydney, the scenes of Sydney and Richard (night club), the explosion of the microwave oven, Rosalyn dancing, the romantic scenes of Sydney and Irving, the presence of mobster Victor Tellegio, and the final surprise. All the cast have much chemistry, pay attention to the scenes of Sydney and Irving; Sydney needs security, tries to seduce Richard to save herself, but she loves to Irving, Rosalyn loves Irving, but she does not trust him.
American Hustle is one of my favorite movies.
