The Place Beyond the Pines is a 2012 American neo-noir crime drama film directed by Derek Cianfrance, and written by Cianfrance, Ben Coccio, and Darius Marder. The film tells three linear stories: Luke (Ryan Gosling), a motorcycle stunt rider who supports his family through a life of crime, Avery (Bradley Cooper), an ambitious policeman who confronts his corrupt police department, and lastly, two troubled teenagers (Emory Cohen and Dane DeHaan) who explore the aftermath of Luke and Avery fifteen years later. The success of this film undoubtedly rests on the shoulders of its starring actors - and, boy, are they capable of heavy lifting. Despite the variances in screen time, each one - both new and seasoned - delivers devastatingly weighted performances; the scales are tipped in their favor (as is appropriate to the storyline) without easily inserted melodrama or vapidly included contention. For the audience this does one of two things: it makes the pain of its subjects devastatingly palpable (at times my heart was stressfully racing in anticipation for the reveal of what choices would be made) and makes its characters worthy of emotional investment that is beyond compare. Told in a linear fashion, ‘TPBTP’ has a viscosity to it that avoids convolution and makes it extremely easy to follow. It's professionally woven exposition acts as an incubator for conflict - it would be accurate to say that it practically and theoretically writes itself. Regardless, there is a glaring lack of desperation that is worth mentioning as this requires some viewers to make inferences they may otherwise not be prepared for or willing to consider; a lack of much-needed Insight regarding alternative decisions individuals could make within the overarching context of their existence negates the implication that its characters have no other choice or any sense of true autonomy. There is much to be said here in regards to destiny and the influence of legacy - but these messages transfer inadequately on screen and depend solely on how its viewers feel about concepts such as fate and predestination. Some suggest that ‘TPBTP’ has significant pacing related issues - and it would be a lie if I said there is no truth to this sentiment. That said, the payoff of sitting through moments lacking in excitement is worth the cost of being temporarily unamused. Cianfrance avoids the temptation of polarizing his characters into camps of “right” or “wrong” or “good” or “evil” . Alternatively, they are revealed as having more in common with one another than originally expected or assumed. As a result of this its characters are forced to explore the consequences of living a life that is cushioned by privilege or faltered by chance. This complexity - at times overwhelming and yet ambitiously commendable - makes ‘TPBTP’ a loosely bound tribute to generational trauma and the ferocity of reconciliation. On the surface ‘TPBTP’ meanders as a simplistic rendering of the ways in which children can be unexpectedly and exponentially affected by the sins and reputations left behind by paternal figures long after their most immediate period of influence. On the contrary, it is a heart-breaking and gripping account regarding confronting where (or, rather who) you come from without compromising your potential for growth, self-preservation, and capacity for redemption. I would recommend!
