Babylon review: Damien Chazelle's masterful Hollywood odyssey depicts the silent era like you've never seen it
That same party also comes to a shattering halt for the jack-of-all-trades talent Lady Fay Zhu , a sexually liberated chanteuse who writes title cards for silent pictures and milks the town’s orientalist fetishes to make ends meet. The last of the main characters is trumpet master Sidney Palmer , who graduates from playing for parties and creating mood music for silent films to actually performing on the screen once sound becomes the star that changes everything.
The set pieces themselves grab your attention immediately and maintain it thanks to Chazelle’s character-focused proficiency on the page and his apparent love of Old Hollywood . His deliciously decadenthas disorderly film sets owned by MGM as well the more ramshackle Kinoscope Studios. With these simultaneously unfolding productions there is always a problem. Nighttime snake fights. David Lynch-ian psychedelia that plunges the viewer deep into the bowels of L.A. .
