Glorious music in a film about dampened idealism
“The Big Chill” just might be the definitive film portraying baby boomer angst. After the shocking suicide of their friend, a group of thirty-somethings reunite for his funeral and end up spending the weekend together, reminiscing about their shared past as children of the 60s and confronting the uncertainty of their lives as adults of the 80s.<br /><br />During the weekend of eating, drinking, smoking pot, socializing, and arguing, we learn about their concerns and hang-ups. They have discovered that not everything they wanted is possible. Their goals have shifted, sometimes seismically, and reality has replaced the idealism of their younger days.<br /><br />Director Lawrence Kasdan presents essentially a multiple character study in a decidedly non-cinematic movie. There is a lot of talking with little location variation, giving the picture a claustrophobic feel. What allows it to grab and sustain our attention is a terrific ensemble cast (Tom Berenger, Glenn Close, Kevin Kline, Mary Kay Place, Meg Tilly, JoBeth Williams) and a soundtrack of rock and soul tunes of the 70s and early 80s featuring Marvin Gaye, The Temptations, The Isley Brothers, Aretha Franklin, The Supremes, Lesley Gore, The Mamas and The Papas, and others.<br /><br />The 3-disc Blu-ray/DVD Dual-Edition contains a new restoration approved by Lawrence Kasdan, new interview with Kasdan, reunion of cast and crew from the 2103 Toronto International Film Festival, making-of documentary, deleted scenes, and a booklet featuring a critical essay.
