Recensione di Anna Piccini: Steve Buscemi ha realizzato il suo primo corto nel 1994 intitolato “What Happened to Pete”, poi ha diretto episodi di serie TV come “I soprano” (2001-2006) e “Miracle Workers” (2020-2021). Gli altri lungometraggi che ha girato, oltre a “The Listener”, sono “Mosche da bar” (1996), “Animal Factory” (2000), “Lonesome Jim” (2005) e “Interview” (2007). Porta a Venezia, alle Giornate degli Autori, un film all’apparenza minimalista, che cresce lentamente, ma, imperiosamente afferra l’attenzione dello spettatore e non la molla più. Un film su una capacità al giorno d’oggi rarissima, l’arte di ascoltare. Una unica grande attrice sempre in video, Tessa Thompson, uno stuolo di straordinari attori solo in voce. Un piccolo gioiello, da coltivare.
