Come and watch some incredible films with me next Tuesday at the IFI, Dublin .

I could chose movies for weeks, there are a gazillion I would like to watch in their beautiful cinema space ….but these two called to me first ( or loudest) …I wanted to see something that would make me think and something that would make me laugh ….there is such depth of feeling in Andrea Arnold’s work and the visual colour and sunshine setups of Napoleon Dynamite ( not to mention the BEST dance sequence EVER) are a pure joy. Come and see them and maybe hang out for a chat afterwards.

Timehop: Napoleon Dynamite (2004 film) (06/11/19) #timehop #abe #foxsearchlightpictures #jaredhess #napoleondynamite #comedyfilm (at Preston, Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/Byl9X2BBCpx/?igshid=sqn91mlci7hd

Thoughts : Napoleon Dynamite (2004)

There was a short window of time in the mid-2000s that made it seem like independent films and directors were having a renaissance in terms of popular culture.  Lots of 1990s underground heroes were starting to get into positions of power in the industry, some of the previous indie-darlings were becoming household names, and an entirely new crop of creators was getting exposure thanks to a proliferation of studio involvement.  During this time, MTv had resurfaced as a player in the film game, and one of their best offerings was the delightful and memorable Napoleon Dynamite. 

The Dynamite family, members of the Preston, Idaho community, are an odd bunch.  Brothers Napoleon (Jon Heder) and Kip (Aaron Ruell) live with their grandmother Carlinda (Sandy Martin), an older woman with a very active social life, especially in comparison to that of Napoleon (a loner with an active imagination) and Kip (a thirty-something who spends all of his free time in online chats).  When Carlinda suffers a quad-cycle accident at the sand dunes with her friends, Uncle Rico Dynamite (Jon Gries), a former high-school athlete and self-proclaimed ladies’ man, moves in to head the household, much to the dismay of Napoleon.  While Kip and Rico attempt to move forward with a door-to-door sales routine in hopes of making extra money, Napoleon befriends two students at his school : the shy Deb (Tina Majorino), and the quiet but confident transfer student Pedro (Efren Ramirez).  Due to their outcast labels, the three band together in friendship and attempt to turn the social hierarchy of their school upside-down, including setting targets on the school election and talent show specifically.  Rico, however, is managing to throw monkey-wrenches into Napoleon’s adventures via his exploits with the parents of Napoleon’s fellow students.  With Kip exploring a budding relationship, Rico continuing blindly in his selfish ways, and Napoleon attempting to raise the profile of himself and his friends, things come to a head in a myriad of unexpected and hilarious ways.

Napoleon Dynamite’s created universe, and the characters that inhabit it, seem to fall somewhere on a spectrum between Charles Schulz and John Hughes.  There are essentially only two general personality types : quirky and dominating.  Everyone on the quirky side has unique elements that make them fall under that label, while the handful of dominating characters essentially use only that trait, whether it be through intimidating force or putting out signals of attraction.  Each character has a specific ‘tick’ that is a signature for them, and over the course of the film, the main characters grow to embrace that unique thing about them, apply it in a surprising way, and gain confidence from it.  It’s a simple formula, but it is executed very well here.

As far as the characters go, their unique looks and understated (but hilarious) performances work well in tandem.  Kip and Rico play much younger than their age, while Napoleon, Pedro and Deb play true to their age.  Everyone comes off like a living, breathing cartoon or comic strip, with the exposition and events that take place happening in a seemingly episodic nature.  Hints of depth are given for each character in very subtle ways, be it Deb’s business ingenuity and artistic eye, Pedro’s love of his culture and assured nature, or Napoleon’s alpha-male characteristics he hides behind his shyness.  The dynamic between Kip and Napoleon is hard to put a finger on, as Kip seems to be the younger brother in many ways until his romantic chats manifest as a genuine and loving relationship.

Of all the transformations and moments in this film to embrace, the shining moment has to be Napoleon’s triumphant dance at the student elections.  Jamiroquai’s Canned Heat and Napoleon’s dance moves not only instantly put a smile on viewer’s face, it is a sincerely cathartic release of a movie-full (if not a theoretical lifetime) of bullying and being made fun of, like a glorious phoenix rising from the ashes that are high school social hierarchies.  The confluence of random events, from the discovery of the dance instructional video, to LaFawnduh’s gifting of the mixtape, to the fact that the student election has a talent portion, all magically lineup like a runway guiding Napoleon towards a takeoff, and a deserved one at that, as every other main character had found some sort of redemption by that moment.

Jon Heder’s iconic performance in the titular role was so good that it overshadowed him for quite a while, as the Napoleon character gained fame beyond that of its creators.  Similarly, Efren Ramirez and his incredibly laid back charismatic confidence also reached cult levels of popularity, with Vote for Pedro taking on a life of its own.  Tina Majorino is charming and equally as shy as Napoleon is at the onset, which makes their combination work extremely well.  Aaron Ruell turns in what is probably my favorite performance, with his demure presence masking some incredible sass that is unlocked courtesy of LaFawnduh’s arrival.  Jon Gries is equal parts lovable and annoying, as his inability to move past a time he regrets has literally stunted his intellectual and emotional growth, making him as endearing as he is frustrating.  Brief (but memorable) appearances by Shondrella Avery, Haylie Duff, Emily Kennard, Diedrich Bader, and Sandy Martin round out the strong cast.

Napoleon Dynamite is a movie that not only gives me guaranteed laughs with each watch, it also provides me discovery of moments I’d previously overlooked.  Like a fine, absurdist wine, this film just gets better as the years go by.
