Willem Dafoe defies classification. He appears in blockbusters and arthouse films, in lead roles or as part of an ensemble. What can be counted on is that he’ll add a dash of idiosyncratic malevole…
provides him with a showcase part in what is essentially a one-man show that Dafoe carries with aplomb.
Katsoupis, collaborating with Ben Hopkins, has devised a clever way to examine the world of art collectors. They are aided by the bold stark lighting of Steven Annis’ camera and the open aseptic space designed by Thorsten Sabel, which eerily represents a cage. In voiceover, repeated a couple of times, Nemo recalls an exercise he was put through as a child in school. Asked what he’d save in a fire, he responded with his most precious possessions.
Dafoe’s an inventive and agile character actor, handsome and appealing but also possessing distinctive malleable features. All this makes him perfect for this one-man show, as he’s never less than immensely watchable. He’s called upon to telegraph Nemo’s emotional state through his body. Images of his back and hunched shoulders fill the frame. He’s shown on the floor in the fetus position and the camera patiently closes up on the creases of his neck and hands.
