Hey, Toronto!
ScreenAnarchy is proud to present Dancing With The Devil -
an extensive retrospective of Spanish maverick Alex de la Iglesia
unspooling at the TIFF Bell Lightbox. Things continue this week with a March 3rd screening of his
A Ferpect Crime and we want to give you tickets!
TRafael (Guillermo Toledo) is the top clerk in a major metropolitan
department store, where he has his pick of the female staff and
clientele and his eye on a plum promotion. But when the promotion goes
to a hated rival -- and when said rival ends up dead after a heated
argument with Rafael -- the smooth-talking salesman finds himself in
something of an awkward position. And things get even more awkward when
he realizes that the murder was witnessed by Lourdes (Mónica Cervera),
an ugly duckling clerk who is passionately in love with the definitely
uninterested Rafael, and who is more than happy to use her compromising
knowledge to her own advantage. A pitch-black comedy of errors that was
one of de la Iglesia's biggest critical hits in North America -- where
the deliberately misspelled Spanish title was "corrected" by the
distributor to The Perfect Crime -- A Ferpect Crime is
"[a] bouncy, swaggering satire of ethics-deficient,
survival-of-the-fittest free enterprise ... adds Chabrolian callousness
to a cartoonish worldview reminiscent of Frank Tashlin or Joe Dante at
their most frenzied" (John Patterson, L.A. Weekly).
