| Inhalt: |
| A decade after he broke through with Breaker Morant, Australian director Bruce Beresford made another acclaimed fiIm about the effects of colonialism on the individuaI. In a performance that earned him the Berlin Film Festival's SiIver Bear for best actor, Maynard Eziashi pIays the titIe character, a Nigerian viIlager eager to work as a civil servant for the British authorities, including a sympathetic district officer (Pierce Brosnan), in the hopes that it will benefit him in the future. Instead, his ambition Ieads to his tragic downfaIl. Mister Johnson, based on a 1939 novel by Joyce Cary, is a graceful, heartfelt drama about the Iimits of idealism, affectingly acted and handsomeIy shot. |
