the only way out

When you are a good guy but your profession, the place you've chosen in society, in this case, Argentina in the 70's and be, unwillingly, part of a dictatorship, you know that by not following orders you'll be forever an outcast. Revenge might be the only way out to clear your guilty thoughts and the ghosts from the past that might come to knock at your door. Justice taken by our own hands seems to be sometimes the only possibility when the Law is not enough. Ricardo Darin, no doubt an excellent actor, is somehow overshadowed by Blanco, an outstanding performer as the "bad" character in an Argentinian province small town. Truly amazing acting,showing how powerfully the "amiguismo",nepotism, which is the most common accepted form of corruption in the world, work in some communities and some countries. Perhaps translation won't help to show this important movie that deals with human rights and human actions.
