Pakula  largely focuses on its status as a &#8220;blueprint for conspiratorial machinery&#8221; and as the &#8220;definitive paranoia film&#8221;. Peary argues that the film effectively demonstrates how &#8220;even the cleverest, most resourceful <em>individual<\/em> cannot triumph against the corporation&#8221;, and that &#8220;truth [cannot] win out as in [Pakula&#8217;s next film] <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=71874\"><em>All the President&#8217;s Men<\/em><\/a>.&#8221; While it&#8217;s true, as Peary notes, that the film&#8217;s &#8220;major flaws result from Pakula sacrificing story-clarifying scenes for pacing&#8221; (it&#8217;s often devilishly difficult, as in Pakula&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/?p=8119\"><em>Klute<\/em><\/a>, to follow what&#8217;s happening from one scene to the next), I also agree with him that in this case, &#8220;the information left out [simply] builds our paranoia and disorientation&#8221;. Visually, <em>The Parallax View<\/em> is a triumph: Pakula&#8217;s stylized direction (utilizing many longshots or extreme close-ups) and Gordon Willis&#8217;s masterful camerawork make this a film one doesn&#8217;t mind <em>viewing<\/em> key sections of several times. Especially notable are the opening assassination sequence atop the Space Needle in Seattle, and the deeply disturbing &#8220;brainwashing montage&#8221;, watched by Beatty when he visits the Parallax Corporation for the first time (see <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/dvdsavant\/s76parallax.html\">DVD Savant&#8217;s review<\/a> for a more detailed analysis of this sequence&#8217;s progression). Beatty is fine and believable in the central role, but the supporting cast is even more impressive &#8212; particularly Paula Prentiss in an all-too-brief early role as Beatty&#8217;s former girlfriend (whose fear of being the next in line for assassination is realized all too quickly.) <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Warren Beatty as Joseph Frady (nominated by Peary as one of the best actors of the year in his <a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-static\/AlternateOscars.html\"><em>Alternate Oscars<\/em> book<\/a>)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-beatty2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-beatty2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10451\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Paula Prentiss in an early supporting role<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-prentiss.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-prentiss.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10450\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Hume Cronyn as Beatty&#8217;s editor<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-cronyn.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-cronyn.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10452\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The opening Space Needle assassination sequence<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-seattle.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-seattle.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10453\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The eerie brainwashing montage<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-montage.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-montage.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10454\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Gordon Willis&#8217;s cinematography<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-cinematography.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-cinematography.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10455\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Pakula&#8217;s effective directorial style<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-visuals.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-visuals.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10462\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-silhouette.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/01\/parallax-view-silhouette.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10456\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Michael Small&#8217;s distinctive, trumpet-heavy score<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nYes, as a powerful thriller by a master director.
