Hi, this is Barry, and welcome to my site. 41 is a 2012 time-travel movie written and directed by Glenn Triggs made with a teeny tiny budget . The plot is centred on a man whose life gets turned upside down when he lands up at a motel to discover a hole in the bathroom floor that takes him back through time. A big thank you to many of my readers for recommending this movie to me. There’s a lot going on in this film, so I’ve created a timeline diagram to help with the plot-walkthrough. Here’s the plot analysis and the ending of the 2012 time-travel movie 41 explained, spoilers ahead.

Before we begin, we need to establish the rules of time travel in the movie 41. When one goes back in time, they leave their own timeline and land up in the past by 12 hours in one of many parallel universes (a.k.a timelines). This is similar to the time travel in Avengers: Endgame  and  Primer’s time travel logic . What does this imply? It means that Aidan can’t go back in time to change his own past; he can never save his  Lauren. He can only alter and affect the past events of other timelines. What’s more? Every timeline has visits from more than one Aidan at various points in time. I know this sounds confusing, so let’s go through the events one timeline at a time.

41 Movie: Timeline-1 Explained (Prime Timeline)

This is the prime timeline where the movie begins. This is the Aidan the film follows from the beginning to the ending of the movie 41; we’ll call him Aidan-1. This does not mean that Timeline-1 is the one to initiate the time-travel mess. It is merely one of the countless timelines caught in the web of interlocked timelines. The numbering from 1 is just for convenience. It’s essential to know that there are other Aidan’s in Timeline-1 that the plot doesn’t follow. They are from other undisclosed timelines:

  • Aidan-a, who shows up and says, “Don’t go to the Heathscape motel”. He appears to be here to stop the accident but is the one who causes it in Timeline-1.
  • Aidan-b, the old manager of the motel. He appears to have gone to the past to save his grandfather but failed. Why failed? Remember, the grandmother is alone in Timeline-1.
  • There could also be others – Aidan-c, who is taken into custody, and Aidan-d, who breaks Aidan-c out and leaves a hacksaw for him. Though this is not shown in the film, it is very likely that these events happen in Timeline-1 just as they do in the other timelines.

Timeline-1’s Main Events

41 Movie Timeline 1 Explained

  • Aidan-1’s day begins well enough with his philosophy exam. 
  • Aidan-1 is met by his doppelganger (Aidan-a) warning him to not go to the Heathscape motel. 
  • Aidan-1 goes to the hospital to spend time with Grandma-1. 
  • Aidan-1 gets a call from his friend Nick-1 who asks for his brother’s middle name. Aidan-1 responds correctly and hangs up. At this point (not shown), Nick-1 is sitting with another Aidan (perhaps Aidan-a) who is claiming to be a time traveller.
  • Aidan-1 goes to the motel and meets his ex-girlfriend, Lauren-1.
  • Lauren-1 and Aidan-1 head to a diner. We hear someone drop plates. This is caused by the other Aidan (possibly Aidan-a) but is not shown on screen.
  • Aidan-1 offers Lauren-1 a lift home, and they meet with an accident. We are shown that the person on the road is another Aidan, but only for a fraction of a second (again, this is probably Aidan-a).
  • Aidan-1 is at the hospital, and Lauren-1 dies. 
  • A set of cops (cops-1) tell him to stay in the hospital as he’s being charged with murder.
  • A patient tells Aidan-1 that he needs to go to room 41 of the Heathscape motel and find a hole in the bathroom floor. This is not shown, but this man was earlier at the motel and happened to see another Aidan (Aidan-a) magically appear from the bathroom. After that, he investigates the bathroom and finally cuts his wrists and is admitted (Aidan-a makes the 911 call). We’ll call this chap Patient-X1.
  • Aidan-1 goes to the motel, finds the hole in room 41 and enters it. He travels back in time and leaves Timeline-1, and goes to Timeline-2.

Just to make a point here, Timeline-1’s people would have suddenly had their Aidan-1 disappear on them. All they’d know is he ran away from the hospital and went missing. And would be experienced by every parallel universe as long as Aidan from that universe uses room 41’s bathroom floor portal.

41 Movie: Timeline-2 Explained

41 Movie Timeline 2 Explained

  • Aidan-1 arrives in Timeline-2 12 hours earlier than he left Timeline-1.
  • Aidan-1 exits the bathroom and runs into Patient-X2, jumping on the bed. Patient-X2 has not yet met an Aidan yet.
  • Aidan-1 leaves the room to see Aidan-2 and Lauren-2 heading out. Aidan-1 follows them.
  • At the diner, Aidan-1 runs into his professor, Wertz-2, who tells him about a meeting he has with other professors to discuss philosophy.
  • Aidan-1 knocks over a bunch of plates. This event tells us that Timeline-1 also had another Aidan (Aidan-a) who broke the plates.
  • Aidan-1 runs to the spot of the accident and waves his hands desperately. Lauren-2 sees him and pulls at the steering wheel, causing the accident.
  • Aidan-1 returns to the motel in disbelief. In the room, Patient-X2 is lying with his wrists slit, and Aidan-1 calls 911. This is how we know that in Timeline-1, another Aidan (Aidan-a) saved Patient-X1.
  • Aidan-1 enters the hole in the bathroom floor and leaves Timeline-2, and goes to Timeline-3 12 hours prior.

41 Movie: Timeline-3 Explained

41 Movie Timeline 3 Explained

  • Aidan-1 hoes home, takes a nap and talks to Nick-3 and Jess-3 about his time-travel episodes. Aidan-1 asks Nick-3 to call their Aidan (Aidan-3).
  • Nick-3 calls, Aidan-3 picks up. Nick-3 asks what his brother’s middle name is and gets the correct response. This is how we know that in Timeline-1, the other Aidan (Aidan-a) was with Nick-1 when Aidan-1 receives the call at the hospital.
  • Aidan-3 goes to the site of the accident to see another Aidan (Aidan-e) waiving his hands. Aidan-1 pushes Aidan-e out of the way and punches him in the face. I find it odd that a person could smack himself from a completely different parallel universe yet feel the pain.
  • The accident occurs anyway. We don’t know why. Perhaps another Aidan (Aidan-f) came to that spot and waved as Aidan-1 was beating up Aidan-e.
  • Aidan-1 goes over to the car, takes dead Lauren-3 and heads to the motel. He tries to take her with him through the hole. Aidan-1 leaves Timeline-3 and goes to Timeline-4 12 hours prior.

41 Movie: Timeline-4 Explained

41 Movie Timeline 4 Explained

  • Aidan-1 arrives in Timeline-4, but Lauren-3’s body didn’t make it. It looks the dead don’t travel through timelines, or Lauren-3’s body was sent to a different unknown Timeline.
  • Aidan-1 goes over to his professor’s house, Wertz-4. Here he learns that he is lost among the infinite parallel universes. And neither can he hope to go back to his own Timeline-1, nor can he save his  Lauren-1. Wertz-4 advises that any jump back in time should be made for the right reasons.
  • Disappointed, Aidan-1 wanders the city and is caught by cops-4.
  • At the station, Aidan-1 tries to tell the truth. He is broken out by an Aidan from another timeline, Aidan-g.
  • Finding a strategically placed hacksaw, Aidan-1 cuts himself free and makes a run for it.
  • Aidan-1 loses cops-4 and breaks into a garage to saw the remainder of the handcuff. As he picks the hacksaw, Aidan-1 realizes that another Aidan from another timeline helped him get free.
  • Knowing he needs to do the same in his following timeline, Aidan-1 takes the saw to the motel. Aidan-1 leaves Timeline-4 and goes to Timeline-5 12 hours prior.

41 Movie: Timeline-5 Explained

41 Movie Timeline 5 Explained

  • Aidan-1 triggers the alarm at the station and leaves the hacksaw under the trashcan. He does this as he knows some Aidan (Aidan-h) is held captive by the cops-5 in this timeline.

How is Patient-X a Lawyer in that diner scene?

  • Aidan-1 goes to a diner where he sees Patient-X5, who’s not lost his mind and claims to be a lawyer. Patient-X5 says that he had enrolled for the war in his youth, but something made him change his mind. While we’re not shown this Patient-X from some timeline has arrived in the past of Timeline-5 and altered a critical moment causing a cascading effect on Patient-X5’s life. Instead of going to war and losing his mind, he is now a reputed lawyer.
  • Aidan-1 gets a call from the hospital and heads over to meet Grandma-5. Looks like she’s fading and is going to die soon. She sorrowfully remembers how a golf ball caused her husband to drown in 1957 and has missed him ever since. Aidan-1 realizes that in at least one timeline, he can save his grandfather.
  • Aidan-1 heads back to the motel and leaves Timeline-5, and goes to Timeline-6 12 hours prior.

41 Movie: Timeline-6 Explained

41 Movie Timeline 6 Explained

  • Aidan-1 runs into Patient-X, who is not from Timeline-6. How do we know? This Patient-X seems to know about time travel and recognizes Aidan-1. It appears he has no recollection was what day it is. 
  • The hotel manager shows up, and Aidan-1 and Patient-X run into the bathroom. Patient-X confirms to Aidan-1 that it is possible to change a timeline if one influences the right moments.
  • Patient-X uses the hole and disappears to an unknown timeline.
  • Aidan-1 leaves Timeline-6 and goes to Timeline-7 12 hours prior.

41 Movie: Timeline-7.8.9.10.11…… Explained

Aidan-1 repeatedly uses the hole to keep going backwards in time through various timelines. He takes breaks to revisit his breakup and then the earlier unforgettable moments of his relationship with Lauren. Remember, Aidan-1 is traversing through multiple timelines here, one per each jump backwards in time.

41 Movie: Ending Explained: Timeline-N

41 Movie Timeline Ending Explained

After countless trips in and out of the hole ( about 40,150 times, okay, I counted ), Aidan-1 goes back to the year 1957 in Timeline-N, a day before Grandpa-N drowned and meets him. To ensure Grandpa-N doesn’t swim over to the golf ball and drown, Aidan-1 gifts him a golf ball but tells him not to open the present just yet. When Grandpa-N strikes his ball into the lake, he decides to go swim and get it. Upon feeling his pocket, he realizes Aidan-1 has gifted him a golf ball. Content, he walks away home. Grandpa-N doesn’t die and lives happily with Grandma-N. In the ending of the movie 41, we are shown that in Timeline-N, Grandpa-N is by the bedside of Grandma-N.

Who is the manager at Heathscape motel?

At the end of the movie 41, it is revealed that the old motel manager is Aidan. In this timeline (Timeline-N), Aidan-1 has was able to save his grandfather. This is an exceptional timeline. If you notice, the grandmother was all alone in all other timelines even though those timelines had an old manager Aidan. Perhaps the golf ball gift trick didn’t work in alternate timelines, or the other Aidans took a different approach to save the grandfather and failed.

Is Lauren saved, or is she dead?

dafna kronental 41 movie was lauren saved

While the 41 movie ending shows Aidan-N and Lauren-N deciding to walk instead of taking the car, this didn’t happen in many of the other timelines. In Timeline-N, old Aidan-1 meets a young Aidan-N to tell him to go to the Heathscape motel. When Aidan-N is contemplating dropping Lauren-N back home, he looks up to see the manager, old Aidan-1. Aidan-N doesn’t know why the manager called him to the motel, but he considers this to be a moment of divine intervention. Perhaps, to spend a longer time with Lauren-N, Aidan-N offers to walk her home. She agrees, and the two leave. Old Aidan-1 smiles happily as he’s understood how to influence circumstances to change the events. 

So yes, this Lauren-N has been saved, and this Aidan-N may not travel through time. But this happy ending is limited to a small set of timelines where an Aidan could make the right impact. Sadly, the remaining majority of the universes will have Lauren dying and Aidan disappearing.

Review by CGS ★★

If you're going to do a story with time travel in it, I think you have two options if you don't want to confuse or annoy the viewer:

1. You either nail the time logic ( Primer , Timecrimes )

2. You use time travel poetically and you don't even worry about the logic ( The Terminator , Somewhere in Time )

41 tries to have it both ways and therefore fails.

But I think my biggest gripe was that there's NO way that motel is over 50 years old.

Brandon Williams

Review by Brandon Williams ★★★

A micro-budget SF time travel adventure... where have I seen that before 🤔. While certainly not Primer, did build a reasonably complex narrative. It has one of the more impactful last acts of mini budget SF I've seen. No waterworks, but sparked emotion. So if you choose this one, make sure to hang in there.

Admit I had to restart the film once because after a heavy pasta dinner, the first act was slow enough that I fell asleep. Only made it about 20 mins in. After a nice long nap and a Starbucks doubleshot, I grinded on through the second act. While more interesting, it still hadn't hooked me. Once past the ridiculous cop characters at the 50 min…

Review by Dina ▪️🔹 ★★★

Watched on a road trip. Time travel, so interesting premise but overall felt empty /flat.

Ben “秃子” Jones

Review by Ben “秃子” Jones ★★★½

Time travel films are always difficult to pull off. It either requires a sound internal logic that manages to tie together all the lose ends or you have something less science based and go with a fantastical idea of what you want time travel to be and let others worry about how it all works.

However, where 41 fails is that it tries to appease both, and whilst this works in short bursts, it ultimately falls apart because of the lack of consistency.

Despite this, what 41 does have is a lot of heart. Whilst the film changes gears several times, it's not until the final reel that it really hits it's stride, revealing the consequence in a moment of…

Review by Bram Christiaens ★½

It was a good try, but there were too many holes in his logic. Either he didn't see Timecrimes or he didn't pay attention.

Rolf

Review by Rolf ★★★½

A philosophy student meets his Doppelgänger who tells him not to got to a certain place. Of course he still does which sets in motion a time travel scenario... Imagine TIMECRIMES without the crime angle. 41 uses the same premise creating many timelines which our protagonist learns to deal with until he literally finds his way. It uses all the elements which make the genre so much fun and really leaves you thinking after it's finished. It's no PRIMER though and never loses sight of its emotional core which keeps the audience close by. Made for a tiny budget in Australia 41 is clearly a passion project which may lack cinematic grandeur and struggles a bit with its cast but as so very often with this genre, it's the story that counts and I'm very happy with what I got.

Make or Break Scene: Revealing the identity of a character in the end.

MVT: The story.

Score: 7/ 10

The Man of Kennebunkport, Sentimental Journeying

  • Share full article

By Alessandra Stanley

  • June 13, 2012

The documentary “41” opens with ocean spray fizzing up from the rocks around the shingled summer house of George Herbert Walker Bush in Kennebunkport, Me., and doesn’t move far from that idyllic spot.

This HBO film, which has its debut on Thursday, isn’t just a loving look at an elderly former president. It’s a nose-pressed-against-the-window peek at the patrician class — not the superrich, but the privileged, well-bred WASPs who inspired Booth Tarkington novels and, later, J. Crew catalogs.

Put it this way: There were more than a few crises in the life and presidency of Mr. Bush, but this account puts almost as much weight on the hurricanes that badly damaged the Kennebunkport compound as on the decision to wage the gulf war.

The documentary, produced by Jerry Weintraub (“Ocean’s Eleven”), who has a house in Kennebunkport and is a longtime friend, doesn’t pretend to be anything other than a homage to a good man who served his country well in war and peace.

Bracketed by Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, Mr. Bush’s one term can seem a little like a sorbet palate cleanser between two rich, complicated, high-calorie dishes. When his son, George W. Bush, took office, the younger Bush seemed at times to hold out his father’s accomplishments as a what-not-to-do list. George H. W. Bush’s was not necessarily the most momentous presidency, but his cautious, unglamorous leadership holds up pretty well in retrospect.

The former president, who just turned 88, tells his story with humor and remarkable recall; it’s not until well into the film that an off-camera interviewer can be heard asking questions like, “Why did you leave your extremely successful business to run for public office?”

Flattery brings out the best in Mr. Bush, who doesn’t like the word “I” and explains that his mother told him, “Nobody likes a braggadocio.” This biography — filled with baby pictures, dogs, home movies, mowed lawns, boats, Andover and Yale graduation portraits, a Skull and Bones membership list and even footage of Mr. Bush as a Navy pilot being rescued after his plane was shot down in 1944 — is not complete.

The camera lingers with a decorator’s enthusiasm over a Kennebunkport bedroom, painted robin’s-egg blue from floor to rafter. There is no mention of the Willie Horton attack spots or the poor choice of Dan Quayle as vice president, but that doesn’t mean “41” isn’t revealing.

41 movie review

Formal in coat and tie, Mr. Bush recalls the time he and his brother borrowed the motorboat of their grandfather, George Herbert Walker, the patriarch who built the Maine family estate now known as Walker’s Point. The two boys drove into the dock too fast, upsetting lobster fishermen and their pots. Two irate lobstermen came to the house, asking to speak to Mr. Walker. He sent them away, “Downton Abbey” style.

“ ‘I’m at lunch; tell them to come back,’ ” Mr. Bush recalls his grandfather saying. When he was finished, Walker made his grandsons apologize in person. “It’s a lesson I’ve never forgotten,” Mr. Bush says. He sees it as a lesson in humility and good manners; outsiders are more likely to feel instead the humiliation of lobstermen forced to wait while the grandee goes on with his meal.

Mr. Bush has whimsical charm and an Old World courtliness, and he is quite funny about his youth, saying that as a teenager he wasn’t “forward leaning” with girls but that he remembers “admiring the figures,” particularly one young woman who wore a “rubber bathing suit,” adding, “I’ll never forget it; it was just to die for.”

He doesn’t say he was a catch, but the early photographs do. In almost every shot he looks off into the distance, but his bride, Barbara, gazes up at him, as if dazzled by her own amazing luck.

Mr. Bush refers to his second-born son as “Governor Jeb” and doesn’t discuss the eldest until the very end. When he mentions George W. Bush, he speaks as a loving father, not as a predecessor whose example was praised but not followed.

He is generous about Reagan and even Richard M. Nixon and touchingly open about his young daughter Robin, who died of leukemia in 1953. He is characteristically modest about his war record.

But even old age doesn’t quite blunt the competitive spirit that drove him into politics and still compels him to drive a speedboat and sky-dive. (He plans another drop at 90.) He is generous with credit, but not with his golf cart. (A sign on it says “Property of #41: Hands Off!”)

He doesn’t have an unkind word for anyone, really, except Ross Perot. “No, can’t talk about him,” he says with sudden brusqueness when asked about the Texas businessman who ran as a third-party candidate in 1992. “I think he cost me the election, and I don’t like him. Other than that, I have nothing to say.”

The former president has lots to say about more pleasant memories, and “41” gives him plenty of time and a beautiful oceanside setting to share them.

HBO, Thursday night at 9, Eastern and Pacific times; 8, Central time.

Directed by Jeffrey Roth; written by Stephen Beck and Mr. Roth; Jerry Weintraub and Mr. Beck, executive producers; Mr. Roth, producer; Janice Hampton, editor; Mark Kilian, composer.

41 movie review

41 Review – A Pretentious And Laborious Time Travel Movie

  • Published on 23 April 2021
  • by The ScreenSlut

41 tries to answer deep philosophical questions that arise from the existence of time travel , but unfortunately, much like the acting in this, the plot is amateurish at best. Rather than being the clever time travel movie they had hoped, it is more like a student project that goes on for far too long.

41 starts off with a narration that ponders the questions of life and how much we take for granted. We then switch to a philosophy class, in which the big topic of what happens after you die is being debated. Aidan, our protagonist, (played Chris Gibson ) is leaving the class when he runs into someone who looks exactly like him and warns him to not go to Heathscape Motel. However, after a tragic accident, with the lure of being able to stop it from happening, he rushes to the hotel to find a portal that allows him to go back to yesterday. 

I was intrigued by this as most time travel movies deal with a bigger timeline than today and yesterday, so I was hoping that we would have an intriguing time mystery. But it feels a very shallow attempt at being clever. With the voice-over at the beginning and the meta discussion, it is quite clear that this is what they were going for, a cerebral time travel film. But it lacks credible acting, dialogue and canon to actually achieve that. 

Rather than adding to the movie, this meta discussion of the movie, just ends up pointing out the flaws and all the things that 41 lacks. The tragic accident that prompts Aidan to go into time travel mode is something we have all seen before. If they had managed to take a new spin on it, this could be forgiven, but it does not go beyond the very basics. With a story that has proclaimed that it is not relying on any twists and special effects, it is only on the strength of the story that it can be judged.

41 manages to be a culmination of poor choices. I do not expect perfect acting in a low budget independent movie, but I expect it to be fairly tolerable. None of the scenes in this feel organic at all, as all the conversation is very stilted. In some scenes, it feels like the actors aren’t even trying to act and yet in other scenes, the actors over exaggerate every facial expression. This can be seen most clearly in the scenes involving the philosophy discussion and the police.

The philosophy scenes are where they decide to go meta talking directly about the film, but our protagonist says he’s writing a novel to sidestep weird questions. It would have been possible to add some nuance to this and flesh out any plot canon. But instead they go over very basic tenets of time travel, that anyone who has ever watched a movie involving time travel would be very familiar with. The experts in this after school discussion try so hard to act clever and profound, but their dialogue is incredibly moronic. There is no new ground covered here, and that sums up why 41 fails as a movie.

Then there are the police, who seem like caricatures of themselves. They are questioning Aidan regarding the accident, which they believe to be a crime, though nothing explains why they come to this conclusion. They try to act hard and menacing, but it just comes off as comical. Clearly added to create some friction in the plot, but it just leaves the audience perplexed.

However, even at this point, I was willing to give it a chance, if the ending had paid off. There is much emphasis on using this time travel for important reasons. But when Aidan devises a plan to change events (which ignores the rules they had set out in the meta discussion), it is just the same thing he was trying to do but with a different person in a different time.

There is no grand scheme to all of this, except self-indulgence even if he does end up saving someone. Which is what I feel is very much sums up, what 41 is like. Rather than being the clever time travel movie it thought it was, it comes across as pretentious, smug and shallow. 

Even without taking those flaws into consideration, the ending has to be the most convoluted way to solve a time travel paradox. There are many ways that this time travel dilemma could have been avoided, yet we go around in circles avoiding the obvious solution.

In fact, what is most frustrating is that Aidan is the cause of all the issues that happen and he repeats his mistakes over and over. 41 should have really been a 30 minute short, rather than the laborious 80 minutes it takes to make its point. Plus the motel, which is the epicenter of it all, could have no way to feature in its conclusion, as there is no way it is more than 50 years old. 

41 is full of glaring inconsistencies, bad dialogue and even worse acting, that makes this sci-fi movie a herculean struggle to finish. 

41 is available to stream on Amazon Prime Video.

Dance of the 41

November 1901. Mexico City. A police raid on a high-society private party leads to the arrest of 42 men. Nineteen are found wearing lavish ball gowns that matched the opulence of the (very much illicit) affair. Among those arrested are key figures from Mexico’s ruling class, including one whose name and presence at the party is promptly erased from the record. David Pablos’ handsome period film “ Dance of the 41 ” traces the real-life story of that man: Ignacio de la Torre (Alfonso Herrera, “Sense8”), the then-son-in-law of Mexican president Porfirio Díaz.

Monika Revilla’s screenplay doesn’t begin with the political scandal that gives the film its title. Instead, it uses it as its climax, an impactful punctuation mark on a tender love story played against the backdrop of the patriarchal power structures of Mexico’s turn-of-the-century gentry. As Ignacio, who’s recently been wed to Amada Díaz (Mabel Cadena, “Monarca”) and in turn appointed to Congress, plots an ambitious political career ahead, he’s taken one night by Evaristo Rivas (Emiliano Zurita). The good-looking young lawyer’s body language and knowing glances pique Ignacio’s interests right away. As they volley euphemisms back and forth, their blush-worthy smiles indicate a kind of connection that can only bloom in darkness.

And bloom it does. Ignacio and Evaristo (“Eva,” as he calls him) become inseparable, puppy-eyed lovers who sneak away every chance they get. Their relationship gets even more serious once Ignacio invites Eva into a secret society of fellow “Socratic lovers.” His initiation, which turns into an orgiastic bacchanal, is the first instance where it’s clear what’s happening between them isn’t merely a lust-driven affair. Where DP Carolina Costa surveys said orgy with tasteful curiosity, letting flickering candle-lit flesh serve as a throbbing backdrop, she stays close on Herrera and Zurita’s faces, letting their intimacy stand apart from the overflow of sexual desire that surrounds them.

Their courtship and relationship, which soon becomes the talk of the town, stands in stark contrast to Ignacio and Amada’s loveless, listless marriage. In another narrative, the dutiful, wronged wife might have been a rote role, one left at the margins to better be ignored by story, characters and audiences alike, her pain necessary collateral damage for the sun-dappled gay affair at its center. Not so here. Revilla and Pablos are deeply interested in Amada’s bouts of paranoia and anxiety over her husband’s lack of interest in her body as well as in the isolation she’s made to feel because of her indigenous ancestry (her mom was refused an invitation to her wedding) and the cold shoulder she garners from her peers (“You and my father are all I have,” she pleads with Ignacio). Cadena is bewitching throughout, making the most out of scenes that risk turning Amada into a petty, pathetic little girl but instead paint a portrait of a woman robbed of her agency by a callous man who married her out of convenience.

As the gossip around Ignacio grows and he begins to feel pressure to leave Eva behind, “Dance of the 41” illuminates, however disjointly, the way men like Ignacio and women like Amada are subject to the whims of a society that has yet to make room for who they are outside of the confined roles they’ve been required to play. Theirs is a twinned and intertwined tragedy. He may find refuge among those like him in an exclusive club that basks in its privilege and insularity where men play pool and smoke cigars, host campy theatrical productions with penis-shaped props and stage high drag opera performances all the while wearing dresses or pearls or wigs if they so desire, but she has no such escape. Then again, once the film careens toward its titular event, Ignacio soon comes face-to-face with a truth he’d been hoping to outrun in between stolen nights with Eva: Such an escape was always going to be untenable.

Juggling a marital melodrama, a queer romance and a political drama within a chronicle of a pivotal historical scandal, “Dance of the 41” was always going to be an ambitious proposition. One whose lofty aspirations are suggested in some of its most affecting scenes. Its final beat, like the entirety of its fabulous, tragic final act, is as masterful as it is heartbreaking. As a whole, though, it remains too stilted, like a painstakingly staged tableau vivant of late-19th-century Mexico and the patriarchal power structures that undergirded it.

Dance of the 41 ending explained – Can Amada free Ignacio of his sins?

ending of the Netflix film Dance of the 41

This article discusses the ending of the Netflix film Dance of the 41, so it will contain major spoilers.

They say the incident of the Dance of 41 “invented” homosexuality, though all it did was shine a light on the issue. Nevertheless, it’s an absorbing study of the two leads—both being trapped by social norms and living miserable, tragic lives for nothing more than biology.

Netflix’s Dance of the 41- the ending explained

Dance of the Forty-One ( El baile de los 41 ) is based on the true story of Ignacio de la Torre (Alfonso Herrera), a congressman at the end of the 19th century who married the daughter of the president of Mexico, Porfirio Díaz (Fernando Becerril). He uses Amanda as his beard to lead a double life. One, as a rise to prominence as a political figure. The other, living out a secret life as a gay man during a time that could get you jailed or executed. When Ignacio is not trying to improve the lives of Mexico’s citizens through public service, he spends most of his nights in a secret society of homosexual men in the country’s capital. 

The film’s title refers to an illegal raid by the President’s armed guard. 41 gay men, 19 of them dressed as women, were arrested. These men were berated, humiliated, and shipped off to prisons to atone for their sins for being homosexuals. The problem was there were 42, and politics is power, so President Diaz took Ignacio off the list. The film ends with Ignacio as the only member left and a shot of him at the dinner table with his scorned wife, with tears in his eyes.

What happens next?

Ignacio is trapped by his country’s social norms and religious morals. While many viewed him as also a complex figure, mainly because he did use President Díaz’s daughter as a beard and for his political gain. Though, he was a product of his time. He had to live in hiding of not just shame but physical harm. Amada was also a product of her time and a political animal. Take the scene where she tries to “rid” him of his sins. It’s a period and culture steeped in religious values. 

After Ignacio and his society are discovered, he is pulled from the group to prevent a scandal for Diaz’s office. He is the only one left and now is a prisoner in his own home, with his wife now the warden. Now, with tears in his eyes, the metaphorical jail cell has been closed, and the key tossed away. He can no longer live the life he wanted, even in secret, or be with the man he loved.

41 Time Travel Film (Australian-made Sci-Fi Movie)

41 movie review

41 Time Travel Film

In 41 Time Travel Film, a young man discovers a hole in the floor of a local motel that leads to yesterday.

Australian director Glenn Triggs is a very talented and dedicated young film maker who is on the right road if he chooses to continue. The thing that is most striking about ’41’ was its absolute reliance on pure storytelling. It did not have the luxury of CGI or other big-budget distractions like expensive props or exotic locations. Glenn and his tiny crew have used just what they had available in order to achieve what they intended.

This is a very small, indie film, made on a shoestring. If you’re looking for big stars, great effects, aliens?, turn away. You won’t like this. Nonetheless, what the makers accomplish is amazing! It draws the viewer into it. It feels like you’re actually becoming a part of it.

In a League of its Own

Time-travel themes are often frustrating to deal with. The paradoxical nature of these types of stories continually leaves unanswered questions and different possible outcomes. You just are not even going to come close to pleasing everybody with a movie like this.

Some have faulted the hospital and police station sets, yet others think that they were perfect! One can never be sure that those guys even WERE the police. It makes you wonder if they had some inside info on what he was doing and were govt agents, posing as police.

The actors/ actresses don’t seem like they are “acting” at all. It seems more like you – as the viewer – are just listening in on conversations. And the story never explains everything. Make no mistake, the answers are there, but you’ll have to listen and pay attention to get them. This movie treats the viewer as intelligent, which is a rare happening today.

Some have said that this movie has the best soundtrack that they have ever heard in a small movie! Haunting all the way through. At the end of the day, 41 is a fine story.

Dark Epic Films presents a Glenn Triggs Film.

WINNER* Rhode Island Flickers Film Festival. Las Vegas Film Festival. Maverick Movie Awards. Made in Melbourne Film Festival. (2012/2013).

Starring: Chris Gibson, Dafna Kronental, David Macrae, Menik Gooneratne, Nick Antoniades, Glen Hancox, Anne Cordiner, Robert Plazek, Shane Lee, Keith Gordon, Bethia Triggs.

Who doesn’t love a good historical drama? From interpretations of Marie Antoinette and the British Monarchy to stories about the heroes of World War II and tales of U.S. presidents, there’s pretty much a ‘based on true events’ drama for just about everything.  Dance of the 41 – or El baile de los 41 –  now streaming on Netflix, shines a light on a pivotal moment in Mexican LGBTQ+ history – and can hang with the best of the prestige period dramas out there. 

DANCE OF THE 41 : STREAM IT OR SKIP IT?

The Gist: Ignacio de la Torre (Alfonso Herrera) is marrying Amada Díaz (Mabel Cadena), the daughter of Mexico’s President Porfirio Díaz (Fernando Becerril). Ignacio’s career is on the rise, and with any luck, his new status as son-in-law of the president will help push him into new territory. As his marriage begins and his career takes flight, Ignacio is also falling in love – with another man. Ignacio brings Evaristo Rivas (Emiliano Zurita) into the fold with a group of queer men that meets regularly to party, have sex, and entertain one another. While it initially seems as though Ignacio may be able to keep his lives separate, increasing suspicion and snooping from wife Amada (who doesn’t hesitate to get her father and brother involved when she’s unhappy) results in his double life being exposed, even if only to her for the time being.

Torn between angry wife, jeopardized career, and dedicated lover, Ignacio struggles to make sense of his world and future. He continues to meet with the group of 42, but eventually, the party comes to a screeching halt. A police raid on a a special ball (at which many of the men are dressed in drag) sees its members – even those from the upper echelons of society – named and shamed in the public, with one exception: Ignacio. He might escape the worst of the punishment thanks to the status of his father-in-law, but the aftershocks of this event and the friends he lost may very well change his life – and Mexican history – forever.

What Movies Will It Remind You Of?: Dance of the 41  boasts a lot of the historical drama beats we’ve become accustomed to as viewers, but a lot of it – both tonally and story-wise – is all its own. That said, it may appeal to period drama fans of titles like Portrait of a Lady on Fire ,  Anna Karenina (2012), and the plethora of 19th century royalty films out there.

Performance Worth Watching: The talented ensemble is what makes  Dance of the 41  so incredibly memorable, but Emiliano Zurita’s turn as Evaristo – or “Eva”, as Ignacio affectionately refers to him – is heartbreaking. It’s the kind of performance that sneaks up on you, like a flower bud slowly opening up before your eyes. Zurita’s screen presence is a uniquely quiet and emotional one, gently stealing our hearts just as he steals Ignacio’s. He doesn’t have a lot to say, but there is so much going on behind the eyes. Watching him play Eva immediately drove me to check out what other work he’s done.

Memorable Dialogue: There are a lot of rich, nuanced exchanges here, but I got a kick out of a brief moment of levity with Ignacio when he’s asked why there are rules: “For others to follow.”

Sex and Skin: Everyone is naked and there are all kinds of sex in Dance of the 41 ; uncomfortable wedding night sex, almost-sex on a piano bench, dimly-lit bathtub sex parties, post-horseback ride river frolicking, sensual, romantic sex, you name it.

Our Take: It may be set at the beginning of the 20th century, but the messages in  Dance of the 41  feel incredibly contemporary. This is a story that takes place 120 years ago, but its depiction of the way the LGBTQ+ community is treated and referred to by others is totally resonant. These are people who feel they have to hide away from the world to find their true happiness, and are forced to create families with people they don’t really love and put on faces for everyone else to see. Some of the film’s more moving moments come not from the central cast, but from the group of men donning gowns and jewelry and putting on shows, eyes filling up with tears as they express themselves freely – even if only for a moment.

Dance of the 41  is unafraid to get into the sexy stuff, but it never feels exploitative or gratuitous. All of the sex scenes and nudity feels in line with the rest of the film and its messaging, combing to create a memorable drama. Naked bodies aren’t just there to be titillating; as with every other shot in the film, it feels purposeful and essential to telling the bigger story at the film’s core. Director David Pablos tells this story with a beautiful complexity, balancing themes of homophobia, chauvinism, and misogyny with ease. Amada may be something of a villain in Ignacio’s story, but she’s also a victim in her own right – and the film doesn’t shy away from touching on these more delicate subjects.

The “dance of the 41” is said to have been the first time homosexuality was made visible in Mexico. I’ll admit that I knew absolutely nothing about this historic event prior to the film, but emerged feeling inspired to dig deeper and understand just how seminal it really was. Dance of the 41 feels like an especially timely film, and in addition to being a thoroughly affecting drama, it will likely also educate viewers.

Our Call:  STREAM IT. With its beautiful production design, stunning performances, and important story, Dance of the 41  could easily stand alongside some of our most prestigious historical dramas.

41 movie review

Mr. Hipster

I continue to go down this hole. This multiverse, time-travel hole. And I blame the algorithm. You watch one sci-fi adjacent thing and you end up getting suggested movies like 41 . Which, frankly, I thought was a movie about Jackie Robinson. But, apparently, that’s called 42 . I can’t say I’m a fan of numbers-only-based titles like these. Especially when there’s no real significance to the number other than it’s the number on the hotel room in which this time-travel wormhole exists. At least with 42 , that’s Robinson’s uniform number. Or like the movie 10 refers to a scale of one to ten that everyone who has ever rated another human being understands. Which isn’t forgiving that practice, of course, but is giving it context.

Seemingly random title aside, the film itself clearly was trying something high-concept and relatively ambitious. It’s clear they watched the movie Primer , but decided that all the math and science stuff was for suckers. So they stripped all of that away and just kind of kept the core time-travel spine. Ostensibly a love story, our protagonist, Aidan, uses a hole in an Australian motel room floor to travel back in time twelve hours with each entry. Yes, literally a hole in a motel room floor. No time machine, no mystical time portal put there by an ancient civilization or alien culture. Nope, just an empty space in a crumby motel under a flap of cheap linoleum that definitely seems like it would be discovered by just about anyone sitting on the toilet in that room. But somehow isn’t. Because this film doesn’t bother with details like that. It’s super low-budget, and at times you feel every dollar not spent on it.

Going back to the concept, it feels like a couple students got into a dorm room and decided they wanted to make a time-travel movie. Then they did a little research, figured out they were going to settle on a certain theory and only then figured out the skin to put on it. And, yes, there’s nothing wrong with the theory here — basically every time the dude, Aidan, goes into the floor he appears in a new timeline twelve hours in the past. Not the same timeline he left from, but a brand new one. So if he’s in timeline/universe one and enters the hole, he can’t affect that same timeline/universe because he pops out in timeline/universe two. So his girlfriend he’s trying to save in timeline/universe one is unsavable. But his girlfriend in timeline/universe two could theoretically be saved if he prevents her death in timeline/universe two having gone back before her time of death. Timeline/universe one girlfriend will always die. As timeline/universe one Aidan continually jumps in the hole to travel from timeline/universe to timeline/universe to try to change future of a continuously alt version of his girlfriend. But that’s truly it. We don’t get much else other than this mechanic. The plot is the mechanism of the time travel. But, of course, at this point we’ve seen enough time-travel movies that we need something unique and surprising to build out the flesh of the narrative. It would be like making a war movie and us just getting a bunch of dudes running around a jungle shooting each other. Sure, it’s a war movie, but what is it I’m supposed to care about?

Ultimately this isn’t a bad movie. It’s just one that was missing something. Heart? Soul? Something that could have been fleshed out with a million bucks? Honestly, I’m not certain, as we’ll never get that version of the movie. And what we have feels like it’s missing something. A reason for being beyond what someone thought was a fun concept — and what someone thought they could pull off on a minuscule budget. So, yeah, it was fine for what it was. I suppose if you’re really into that DIY aesthetic, don’t mind some of the seams showing in your films and are a true everything-for-the-multiverse person, it could be worth 80 minutes of your time on a bus or plane. And may honestly be better on a smaller screen anyway.

41 movie review: Lal Jose offers intuitive film with Biju Menon

Litty Simon

41 aka Nalpathiyonnu  movie opens with a scene where Biju Menon's character is seen meditating on air, literally! A curious crowd gathers around him. Minutes later, he is seen challenging the divine God.

The Lal Jose movie is more or less based on this aspect where the protagonist Ullas is an atheist and he has his own set patterns for life.

For instance, on the eve of his wedding, he goes to the bride's home and sets a few conditions. In yet another scenario, Ullas is seen helping an old woman at a medical camp, while his own old-age mother taunts him for not helping him.

But his life takes a turn when he decides to reform Vavachi, who is also a party worker and an alcoholic.

Set between religious sentiments and political affiliations, director Lal Jose plays it safe not intruding too much into either of the two.

Like his usual movies, Lal Jose' narrative stamp is evident in this one too. The well-crafted story telling helps in keeping the audiences engaged.

41 movie review

If Biju Menon's last film Aadhyarathri  was a take on the argument of “what will the society say”, his 41  exhorts the society to change itself.

Though we know that he has strong convictions with regard to his life, we are never shown as to what made him so. Scripted by debutant PG Prageesh, the interesting twists and occasional fun-filled moments keep the film moving at a good pace.

Biju Menon, as usual, effortlessly fits into the character Ullas and entertains as well as make the audiences think with his amazing one-liners.

Equally laudable was Dhanya as Suma and debutante Saranjith, who impressed as Vavachi. Be it as a drunkard or as the goon and even during the emotional moments, he manages to deliver a neat performance. So was Nimisha Sajayan, who is seen both as young girl and a matured woman. With her dialogue delivery and mannerisms, Nimisha makes a wonderful impression.

What works in the movie is the slices of real life shots with realistic treatment. Bijibal has composed the music and lyrics is by Rafeeq Ahammed.

41 movie review

S Kumar is behind the camera and the cinematography is gripping. Take for instance a scene where Vavachi goes into the well to clean and suddenly slips down, the camera moves in circular pattern to give viewers the same feel.

41 aka Nalpathiyonnu also throws light on how crucial are the 41 days for a Ayyappa devotee.

With references to movies like Chinthavishtayaya Shyamala , 41 seems like an ode to the Malayalam cinema of 90's. This Biju Menon movie will entertain the audiences who love light-hearted films.

Dance of the 41   photos.

A principios del siglo XX México estaba a punto de vivir su revolución. En medio de ese clima caldeado, las autoridades llevaron a cabo una redada homofóbica en una fiesta gay. Al irrumpir en la casa donde se hacía la reunión, la policía se sorprendió al encontrar a la mitad de los hombres vestidos de mujeres y bailando con el resto. La mayoría pertenecía a familias aristocráticas.

Mountain West SDSU

San Diego State rushed out of the gate Saturday against Fresno State and never let up, running away from the Bulldogs 73-41.

Jaedon LeDee neared a double-double in the first half alone, as the No. 19 Aztecs (21-7, 10-5) established a 42-16 lead by the break over the Bulldogs (11-16, 4-10).

Fresno State, badly hampered by injuries, trailed by 20 after 10 minutes of play and the gulf expanded to 30 with just under three minutes in the half. The Bulldogs suffered through a seven-plus minute scoring drought while SDSU enjoyed two 12-0 runs, the first to open the game.

LeDee finished the half with 15 points and eight rebounds. Jay Pal and Reese Waters added seven points each.

OH MY GOODNESS!!! @JayPal_22 📺: @CBSSportsNet pic.twitter.com/IR32M8fwkr — San Diego State Men's Basketball (@Aztec_MBB) February 25, 2024

The message in the locker room at the break? “The first four minutes we gotta put ’em down,” LeDee told CBS Sports.

Done. The Aztecs picked up where they left off, as first Darrion Trammell, then Micah Parrish hit from long distance to push the lead to 31.

The Bulldogs never cut the deficit to less than 23 – and they did that in the opening moments of the half – as they fell to the Aztecs in lopsided fashion for the second time this season .

What head coach Brian Dutcher saw, he told San Diego Sports 760, was a team playing at “maximum efficiency.”

It's been demolition derby for @Aztec_MBB . SDSU up by 30 points 💪 pic.twitter.com/m5QbfmGNlI — CBS Sports College Basketball 🏀 (@CBSSportsCBB) February 25, 2024

The defense held Fresno State to 25% shooting and had nine blocks. SDSU took care of the ball, with just five turnovers and moved the ball around, with 13 assists.

“We should be playing at our best right now,” Dutcher said.

LeDee ended the game with 22 points, 11 rebounds and three blocks. Pal had 14 points, five rebounds and a lightning quick dunk off an inbound pass from Lamont Butler. With the win secured, reserves also logged some game time – BJ Davis, Demarshay Johnson Jr., Cade Alger, Cam Lawin and Ryan Schwarz finished the game.

San Diego State, with three games left in the regular season, trail Utah State and Boise State in the Mountain West. The Broncos loom – SDSU closes out the campaign at home on March 8 against Boise State.

Meanwhile, LeDee had a big week, with honors coming in from the conference and beyond.

Fresh off being named the MW Men’s Basketball Player of the Week, the senior was one of five players on the U.S. Basketball Writers Association’s Oscar Robertson National Players of the Week list. This is the second time LeDee received the distinction this season. LeDee, a 6-9 forward, led San Diego State to a 2-0 record last week with victories over Colorado State and New Mexico , for what would be a temporary share of the lead in the conference standings.

In two games, he averaged 25 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.5 steals, 1 assist and 0.5 blocks. He shot 70.8% from the field (17-of-24), 50% from beyond the arc (1-of-2) and 68.2% from the line (15-of-22).

The Aztecs come home at 8 p.m. Tuesday to host San Jose State (9-19, 2-13 MW) at Viejas Arena.

  11. 41 Review

    Published on 23 April 2021. by The ScreenSlut. 41 tries to answer deep philosophical questions that arise from the existence of time travel, but unfortunately, much like the acting in this, the plot is amateurish at best. Rather than being the clever time travel movie they had hoped, it is more like a student project that goes on for far too long.
