A Film Festival experience with too many storylines
Breaking Glass Pictures presents awarding winning director Dominique Choosy (Mar del Plata Film Festival – Best Film “Confort Moderne” 2000) English Subtitled film, providing the viewer a glimpse into the world of the Film Festival. Young director Géraud (Johnny Rasse) is invited to Normandy to screen his film “My Life with James Dean”. When his phone is stolen by a little kid, getting a ride to his hotel, meeting his host and finding the cinema are just a few of the obstacles he must encounter. Greeted by a preoccupied hotel employee (Juliette Damiens), a cinema projectionist (Mickael Pelissier) who comes to terms with his sexuality after viewing the film, and a Festival Facilitator (Nathalie Richard) who’s full of her own issues, Géraud’s festival experience becomes one interesting and at times entertaining challenge after another. However, Choosy, who is also the writer here, incorporates too many smaller story lines, thus leaving the audience with nothing really substantial to hold on to. Luckily, the Normandy seaside village (cinematographer by Laurent Coltellonie) provides a beautiful backdrop for the adventure, and some intriguing background songs (Music by Bertrand Belin) push the film along. Rasse is a handsome and interesting lead character (especially important in an LGBTQ film), who just goes with the flow without much hesitation. Young Pelissier is that innocent puppy everyone loves, but his secret and the repercussions are washed over. Damiens’ and Richard are nice secondary characters who continually provide calm and angst in Géraud world. At 1 hour and 48 minutes, the film is long, and it’s easy to get distracted. DVD/VOD release: August 28, 2018
A Near Perfect Little Comedy
I just stumbled on this film searching on Amazon Prime last night for something to watch, decided to take a chance on it, and sat down all by myself with a cup of cinnamon latte to watch. Twenty minutes in I was sitting bolt upright with my eyes glued to the TV saying “Hold everything, this is REALLY good.” Best film I’ve seen this year for sure. A comedy so well-written—understated, with restraint and few words, and new revelations throughout—and so well-directed and edited with impeccable timing and an acute eye for so many little comedic details that others would let slide. (I would only point to one perfect little exchange: “You’re very tall.” “I know.” [I’m American so I have to go with the English subtitles.] Five words, but the visual is laugh-out-loud funny, and that little five-word exchange tells you so much about those two characters.)So I was smiling through this entire movie, and frequently burst out laughing. I did not find it long at all; I actually wanted more. I would heartily recommend this little French gem to all my American movie-loving friends who might be craving a heart-felt and heart-warming comedy during this unending time of quarantine.
