Grigori Rasputin (January 22, 1869 - December 29, 1916) is biennial 
n known in history as "the Mad Monk " was a Russian mystic with a great influence in the last days of the Romanov Dinastina . He had a reputation for healing through prayer and 190 5 was called to the palace of the czars to cure the serious illness of his only son Niko Alexis Yevich lá. The younger the better and it was then that the Romanov family fell under the influence of this strange character. 1916 was the year that Rasputin would die, and I would do it in a rather violent: he was poisoned, shot, and then wrapped the corpse in a carpet to be pulled into the river Neva . At autopsy it was discovered that Rasputin drowned. After this brief historical introduction on such an interesting character, let's Harlequin, film directed by Simon Wincer ( Sydney, Austra lia, 1943 - The Haunting of Hewie Dowker; Snapshot; DARYL , Harley Davidson & M arlboro Man, Lightning Jack ), in this interesting film, Robert Powell (June 1, 1944, Salford, Man chester, England) plays an enigmatic healer, sound familiar?, of course, his character is based on " the Mad Monk," the history in question is:
Senator Nick Rast is a powerful man, a day anyone, comes to life a m istry stranger named Gregory Wolfe; Wolfe first thing is to cure leukemia Alex, the son of Rast, but not only that, little by little anger getting more and more into the lives of these people. "
may Rast rid of so singular a character? What they chased and Wolfe?
The filming of this movie just took him to W uncertainty about five weeks, was brought outside British actors Robert Powell and David Hemmings , while the United States amount to actor Brod erick Crawford. Using as a base idea historic event Rasputin, and the disappearance of Australian Prime Minister Harold Holt is that Wincer builds a great intimate film about the dark recesses of power, Hemmings an interpretation that has a great as that of a powerful politician, but that in turn is nothing more than a puppet of the unscrupulous Doc Wheel an , someone really dangerous, since it handles all the shadows, another of the ins and outs that are shown is the arrangement of marriage of the mother with Alex Rast . But do not despair, that although the follicle
eg about politics, he soon made his appearance the character of Wolfe to put a little more color to this drama. As English actor is good, Robert Powell shows here, again, how good it gives acting, and not only that, but also has the mania of any good actor, because here is not enough to play Gregory Wolf, but above it can be seen as a clown, a magician, a healer, a harlequin and a gentleman come, and all the plays of wonders, but Powell is not alone in their struggle against the dark forces of politics, his side is the actor Mark Spain ( Alex Rast), his interpretation of someone who is about to die and then the overflowing of life is very good, that Incidentally, Spain this bald truth, both Pow ell as Sp ain 
are a duo of first sequence serves as an example one in which Wolfe takes the child and places to hang the cliff, and dialogues as well, of course, but there seems to be some kind of fakery, there is not, really Spain hangs from the cliff supported by Powell , but with the safety harness keeps well hidden, another very good scene is one in which Alex Wolfe and are in the back of a car and focus after a dog get mad at her child's bodyguards are buzzing ears and break the odd glass of the car. But still more, another of the great moments of the film is, without doubt, the party where Wolfe shows his talents as a magician and healer when you cure a tooth to a guest of the family Rast. 
Arlequin , Dark Forces or The Minister's Magician are the three titles to be released this film made in Australia , is a movie compelling, that will keep caught the viewer start to finish and a truly masterful final it may be that in an age where language is dizzying cinematic, Wincer's film seems in some sections bit slow, but thanks to the skill of the actors mentioned above, Arlequin end resulting in more than a delight. Arlequin , illusion or not it, that will depend on the viewer, and so there is no doubt that we face a classic.
