A group of close friends celebrate the bittersweet changes coming to their lives during the summer of their high-school graduation: adult responsibilities, adult romance -- and the soberingly adult fact that some of their number are being drafted into the Israeli army. This has very much the feel of a high-school beach-party movie -- with music, and in Hebrew -- until a sudden and disturbingly realistic reminder of their own mortality finally slashes through the kids' cheerful, close-knit obliviousness.
Blues Lahofesh Hagadol (1987) Reviews
Beautiful
A beautiful and sensitively done movie showing the effects of war on everyday life. The movie deals with the people affected by war, barely if at all touching the idea of war. It doesn't take a stand one way or another if the particular war it refers to is right or wrong, rather it shows with great sensitivity what happens to the innocents affected by it. I recommend this movie very highly.
growing up in modern Israel
This modest but appealing Israeli feature was a big hit in its native country, and not without good reason: it's a poignant elegy for lost innocence in a nation that forces its children to come of age too quickly. The opening narration clearly spells out the message, introducing a group of friends during their last few weeks together between high school graduation and military service. Their ranks include: an aspiring filmmaker; an equally hopeful songwriter; a left-wing conscientious objector; a young newlywed couple; and a likable, curly-headed klutz, the first to be drafted and the first, naturally, to be killed (but not in battle: a nice irony). The film captures all the exuberance and awkward idealism of youth with hardly a stereotype in sight, but don't think of it as Tel Aviv Graffiti. Underneath all the familiar coming of age conflicts the story also dramatizes the effects of an unending war on a young generation compelled by duty and circumstance to sacrifice more than just their lives.
the best Israelis movie
the movie introduce in a beautiful way a bunch of young kids in their last summer before going into the army in a days of the war of attrition. the movie is a mix of joy and sadness, childhood and maturity. the dilemmas that the bunch is facing are the mirror of those times - from the small ones-to have a graduation party or not, to the big ones - to join or not to join the army and in which unit. the movie brings up a variety of characters - the non conformist whom at the end joins the army because he understands that there is no such privilege, the one that everything works for him, but still he has to make up is mind etc. great music. great great movie.
One of the best Israeli movies ever
It does have its faults, not all the characters are evenly built. Some are super, complete human beings presented on the screen for us to watch others are fleeting images present on the screen only as space fillers. But for me it's the only fault of a very well constructed movie, beautifully shot, beautifully directed, superbly acted by all the leads, and if you do live in Israel and you knew Israel at the time the movie takes place and it still feels real and genuine, it's a huge compliment. On top of that one can see that the director knows what he's doing, things make cinematic sense. In my private book, this one of my top five films made in Israel ever, though people should know that my top five list could easily include 10 films - I'm not for splitting hairs over silly little details. If a movie is good, most of the rest is insignificant, this one is really good.
