Skyline

About This Movie

Skyline (1984) captures this odd blend of comedy and introspection. It follows a Spaniard photographer, played by Antonio Resines, who finds himself in the bustling streets of New York, hoping to make a name for himself. The film's atmosphere is a mix of awkward encounters and quirky charm, with a pacing that feels almost reflective of the protagonist’s own uncertainties. You can feel his shyness and broken English weigh on his interactions, adding a layer of authenticity. The practical effects are understated, focusing more on character than spectacle. It's not just about the photos he takes, but the dreams he grapples with—so in a way, it’s a slice of life that resonates, especially for those familiar with the struggle of creative pursuits.
