Review : The Last Thing He Wanted (2020)
I want to be a fan of Netflix as a production house and film distributor, but sometimes, the final product does not stand up to the expectations set when one examines the cast and crew. Don’t get me wrong, Netflix has created a handful of impressive winners, but for each of these films, there are a handful of forgettable drops peppered along the way. I mention this because a recent watch made me think of Netflix’s missteps, despite the promise held from the aforementioned elements... I can only think of what The Last Thing He Wanted could have been in a perfect world.
Journalist Elena MchMahon (Anne Hathaway) and her photojournalist partner Alma Guerrero (Rosie Perez) write for the Atlanta Post, mostly covering war conflicts and skirmishes with United States military involvement. MchMahon uses her keen intuition to identify (and attempt to uncover) the Iran/Contra and Sandinista scandals, but finds herself reassigned to the 1984 Presidential Campaign. Begrudgingly, she accepts, but soon abandons the assignment to take care of Dick McMahon (Willem Dafoe), her dying father. Unkowningly, Dick is involved in the exact same gun-running situation that Elena was investigating, and in the attempt to help her father out, finds herself transferred from investigator to participant.
Maybe it’s just me, but this movie feels like Netflix is fishing a bit for Oscar bait. With Dee Rees coming off of the critical acclaim and success of Mudbound, and names like Anne Hathaway, Willem Dafoe, Rosie Perez and Ben Affleck attached, it’s clear that clout was a key factor in the production. The story focuses on Contras and Sandinistas (giving it current historical relevance) as well as familial espionage, the film itself is a period piece with a darkly dramatic narrative, and the main leads are roles that give women empowerment and agency.
The play is an ambitious one, but the film falls a bit short in terms of production. The location shoots work well enough, but once Elena is put on the campaign trail, the minimalist presentation does not play as well as intended (if there was intention at all to the decision), and is noticeable enough to distract viewers. Pacing and tone are tossed a bit to the side as a trade off for actors to play for dramatic moments, but unfortunately, most of what is asked of us is not necessarily earned.
The main issue with what the films seems to ask of us stems from its inability to commit to a theme, tone or solid narrative string. A historically accurate political-based thriller switches to a foreigner trapped in a foreign land narrative with a lack of stakes, but all the time it wants to be a film about broken families and strained relationships. As a result, the film finds it hard to hold viewer interest despite trying its best to impress us with the actors cast and the performances given. Everyone is serviceable in terms of their performance, but Rosie Perez is really the only one that offers any true depth or range. Anne Hathaway and Ben Affleck mostly play things by the book, while Willem Dafoe falls short of the high bar he has earned due to a lack of material to work with. Edi Gatghegi and Mel Rodriguez are memorable in their brief appearances, while supporting appearances by Toby Jones, Carlos Leal, Onata Aprile, Ben Chase and Julian Gamble round things out.
Luckily for Netflix, one misstep won’t be detrimental to their overarching goals. This is the kind of film that will likely fade from the popular memory, if it manages to make an impression in the first place.

🧡👏🏿🎬 #ArtIsAWeapon Reposted from @broadwayblack Oscar nominated Screenwriter & Director Dee Rees ("@mudbound," "Bessie," "Pariah") set to write & direct a new film adaption of George Gershwin’s "Porgy & Bess" according to @deadline “Porgy and Bess is at its core, a love story," Rees said. "So I'm very excited to take on the challenge of this highly venerated, iconic material and lift the architecture of this unlikely love story and re-site it at a place and moment of resistance.” 📷: Alexi Silvagni #DeeRees #BlackWomenFilmmakers #BlackWomenStorytellers #BlackLoveStories #PorgyAndBess #TraScapades #ArtIsAWeapon #BlackGirlMovieGeeks🤓 https://www.instagram.com/p/B8el9ObBf-9/?igshid=1705axorkwqvv
