Questa volta siamo a Chicago nella sede di una stazione televisiva locale e Cage \u00e8 David Spritz, l&#8217;uomo delle previsioni meteorologiche, alla continua ricerca di una vita in equilibrio. Condizione al momento molto difficile da raggiungere. &#8220;Io non sono il vuoto pneumatico &#8211; pensa David &#8211; ho un piano&#8221;. E il suo piano ha pi\u00f9 di un fine: la stima e la fiducia del padre Robert (Michael Caine) &#8211; premio Pulitzer per la letteratura cui viene diagnosticato un tumore &#8211; l&#8217;amore della ex-moglie Noreen (Hope Davis) che sta per risposarsi con Russ (Michael Rispoli) e la felicit\u00e0 dei suoi due figli, Shelly e Mike. David vorrebbe che la sua vita fosse pi\u00f9 facile ma la parola facile &#8211; come gli ricorda suo padre che non ha avuto bisogno di accorciare il cognome per piacere agli altri &#8211; non rientra nella vita degli adulti. L&#8217;unica certezza di Dave \u00e8 che, di tanto in tanto, qualcuno gli getter\u00e0 addosso qualcosa: una bibita, un panino, un nachos, un felafel. Appunto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nel mondo estatico dei rapporti congelati di\u00a0<em>The Weather Man<\/em>\u00a0gli sfondi innevati di Chicago fanno da contrappunto alle pulsioni assenti, alle inesistenze di personaggi svuotati e privi peso specifico. Per David la notoriet\u00e0 \u00e8 negativa, perch\u00e9 svilisce la sua collocazione sociale, il suo &#8220;product placement&#8221;. Eppure a lui basterebbe solo ritrovare un posto nella sua famiglia.\u00a0<em>The Weather Man<\/em>\u00e8 un&#8217;escursione agrodolce nel dramma umano e Gore Verbinski realizza questo film interessante tra produzioni di maggiore successo ma certo di minore spessore, tra una\u00a0<em>Maledizione della prima luna<\/em>\u00a0e un\u00a0<em>The Ring<\/em>. La sua regia \u00e8 lucida e lineare, cos\u00ec da affidare il merito del film alla buona prestazione dei suoi attori tra i quali spicca Michael Caine, padre modello, unit\u00e0 di misura per il cambiamento esistenziale di David. Ma ci sono anche personaggi reali in piccoli cammei, come nel caso del conduttore Bryant Gumbel, dello chef di &#8220;Californian Cuisine&#8221; Wolfgang Puck e del capo meteorologo del Chicago Tribune Tom Skilling.\u00a0<em>The Weather Man<\/em>\u00a0\u00e8 un piacevole sguardo nelle crisi di un uomo solo, un cowboy del nuovo millennio armato di arco, frecce e tanta dignit\u00e0.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">di Alessio Sperati<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A breve distanza dall&#8217;indolore\u00a0The Lord of War, torna
