Summary/Abstract: Brady Corbet’s movie, The Childhood of a Leader (2015), is one of the most surprising cinematic productions of the decade in which the debutant American filmmaker develops a remarkable acoustic and visual aesthetic that shatters the spectator’s horizon of expectations. By using a series of apparently conventional techniques similar to a mystery movie, the young director succeeds in manipulating the viewer’s prospects, avoiding the clichés of a violent film, in order to create not just an intelligent traumatic main character, but also a dazzling parable on the universal Evil.
