LA MOSTRA DE VENISE

The French director Audrey Diwan wins the Golden Lion for her film “The Event” about a young woman who has an illegal abortion. This award was given to her unanimously by the jury chaired by the South Korean director Bong Joon-ho (Parasite). 

Adapted from the autobiographical story of the same name by the novelist Annie Ernaux, the film takes place in France in the 1960s, before abortion was legalized. It shows the journey of a young student who becomes pregnant, played by the Franco-Romanian Anamaria Vartolomei,

The Spanish actress Penélope Cruz received the award for best actress for her role in “Parallel Mothers” by Pedro Almodovar.

Filipino actor John Arcilla, a star in his country, won the Best Actor Award for his role as a journalist confronted with “fake news” and corruption in On the Job 2: The Missing 8, a three-and-a-half hour long film by Erik Matti.

Although presented as a feature film in competition in Venice, the film will be cut into a mini-series for the American television channel HBO. The film is a sequel to On the Job (2013), also by director Erik Matti, which was a huge success in the Philippines as a story of how the government used detainees to carry out assassinations.

REVIEWS

 

 

What to watch

Boîte Noire, by Yann Gozlan

 

Synopsis

Mathieu Vasseur is an agent of the Bureau of Investigation and Analysis for the safety of civil aviation (BEA). He is in charge of investigating an exceptional and unprecedented air accident: the crash of a Dubai-Paris flight in the Alps that killed nearly 300 people. The reasons for the disaster are unknown. Mathieu is going to study and analyze the black boxes of the plane in detail. He does not know that this investigation will lead him very far.

 

The movie

 

Exciting thriller even if the scenario is not very plausible, Black Box, plunges us into a universe that, for most of us, we do not know at all and the fascination for this world of aviation and sound plays for a lot in the success of the film.

Because if the plot sometimes leaves something to be desired, Pierre Niney is the best part of this film. He plays the paranoia in a masterly way and thus manages to distill doubt in the mind of the viewer.

But I found the ending a bit disappointing compared to the rest of the film.

 

Anecdotes

To prepare his role, Pierre Niney spent several weeks with BEA agents: “There, I ended up finding an investigator with a profile similar to that of Mathieu. From there, as is often the case, I did a kind of journalistic work: I followed him, I spoke to him and asked him for permission to film him so that I could be inspired by his gestures, his way of working, his speed of keyboard executions. The acoustician’s job is very technical, it was important to be able to reproduce things precisely.

The director Yann Gozlan is passionate about civil aviation. He declared: “This universe, in my eyes formidably cinematic, with colossal financial stakes, where divergent interests (aircraft manufacturers, airlines, pilots…), seemed to me to be an original and fascinating framework for a film”.

In theaters now.

 

 

 

What to watch

La nuit des rois, by Philippe  Lacôte

 

Synopsis

The MACA, the Abidjan prison, one of the most overcrowded in West Africa.

Aging and ill, the prisoner Blackbeard is an increasingly contested kingpin. To maintain his power, he resumes the tradition of “Roman”, a ritual that consists of forcing a prisoner to tell stories throughout the night.

A young pickpocket is chosen. Roman” does not know how to tell stories, but he is haunted by a single story: that of Zama King, an urban legend that he begins to tell (and invent) for several hours, risking his life…

 

The film

La Nuit des Rois is a powerful film that links us directly to nature, so present in West Africa, and to the history, the tales, and the oral tradition dear to the griots of the Ivory Coast.

The pace is quite slow at the beginning but as soon as the young “Roman” starts to speak, we become as fascinated as the other prisoners.

The story is about the history of colonization, kingdoms, presidents, war and corruption that gave birth to the microbes (named after Fernando Meirelles and Kátia Lund’s City of God). Zama King was one of them and he really existed and was lynched by the population for looting and killing in gangs.

In the Macca prison, the staff abdicated. In fact, it is “the only prison governed by a prisoner”.  There is nothing funny in this serious, hard story about the living conditions of prisoners abandoned to the internal struggles of the prisoners who hope to recover the power of the king who is about to die and the multiple traffics typical of prisons.

 

All is about nature

 

The moon, the animals, the nature is present throughout the story of “Roman”. The actors are incredibly beautiful, both in the expression of faces but also bodies because the scenes are all very choreographed.

 

A great cast

Actors Bakary Koné, Steve Tientcheu, Digbeu Jean Cyrille and Denis Lavant (a small role but crucial to the story) are the impeccable cast of this original story.

La Nuit des Rois refers to Shakespeare’s play about love but also about cross-dressing, suggested in the film by one of the characters who disguises himself as a woman.

Presented at the 77th Venice Film Festival, at the 2020 Oscars and in many international festivals, Twelfth Night received the Valois Prize for direction and music at the Angoulême Francophone Film Festival.

In theaters now.

 

 

What to watch

Free Guy, by Shawn Levy

Screenplay Matt Lieberman and Zak Penn

 

Synopsis

 

In the video game Free City, Guy is a non-gamer character who works at a bank. His life is set and he does the same thing every day, over and over again.

Until one day he meets the beautiful Molotov Girl. She is the avatar of Millie, a programmer who is trying to prove that the creator of Free City, Antwan, stole the code she developed with her friend Keys.

At the side of Molotov Girl, Guy will become aware of who he is. He will go beyond his condition of simple non-player character and become a celebrity of social networks. But Antwan is not going to let it happen.

 

The movie

Director of Cheaper by the dozen, Night at the Museum, which are not my favorite films by any means, Shawn Levy has succeeded in creating an explosive mix of humor and video games accompanied by a great soundtrack!

This story which navigates between Truman Show (there is a little bit of Jim Carrey in this Ryan Reynolds) and Ready Player One for the video game part, is a pure delight.

Ryan Reynolds and Jodie Comer have a great time and so does the director, who didn’t hesitate to multiply all the references of the 80’s movies. 

 

Free Guy was still playing at the Publicis not long ago. Don’t miss it.

 

In theaters now.

 

What to watch

The State of Texas vs Melissa, by Sabrina Van Tassel

Synopsis

The documentary follows the case of Melissa Lucio, a Texas woman who was the first Hispanic woman in Texas to be sentenced to death.

 

The film

Seen in preview at the cinema Le Balzac and in the presence of the director, I discovered the story of this woman, a terrible story made of injustice and violence.

For almost three years, the director Sabrina Van Tassel collected all the testimonies and reconstructed the whole story of this judicial error.

We follow, as in a thriller, the elements of the investigation that led to his death sentence and that collapse like a house of cards.

The Texas judicial system is ruthless (prosecutors are elected by results), sometimes corrupt (as was the case with both the lawyer and the prosecutor in her case). Melissa Lucio won her third appeal on the basis of the falsified elements of her trial and her confession, but the State of Texas appealed against her and she is again sentenced to death.

 

A history of violence

We hear from Melissa’s family, their suffering and their helplessness in the face of a judicial system that crushes everything in its path.

All her life, Melissa Lucio, was a victim of violence committed by men, whether it was sexual violence, from childhood, domestic violence and then judicial violence.  She left home at sixteen to escape the repeated sexual abuse in her family.

To take action, you can help by going to see the film, or use the #SaveMelissaLucio or sign this petition and share it as much as you can.

 

In theaters today.

 

 

What to watch

Dune, by Denis Villeneuve.

 

Synopsis

The film Dune is an adaptation of the first part of the novel by Frank Herbert.

In the year 10191, Duke Leto Atreides receives from the Emperor the fiefdom of the highly profitable and dangerous desert planet Arrakis.

Also known as “Dune”, this planet is the sole source of the Imperium’s most precious substance, “Spice”, a drug that prolongs human life, provides immunity to poisons and gives superhuman mental abilities.

Among other things, the Spice makes interstellar navigation possible, the basis of the entire Imperial economy.

Although Leto knows that this opportunity is an elaborate trap set by his enemies, he takes his concubine Bene Gesserit, Lady Jessica, his young son and heir Paul, and his most trusted soldiers to Arrakis. Leto takes control of Spice mining, made perilous by the presence of giant sand worms that attack any source of vibration.

But after a bitter betrayal, Paul and Jessica make it to the Fremen, the indigenous people of Arrakis who live in the planet’s deep desert.

The Fremen are waiting for the Mahdi, the messiah who will raise the jihad and free them from the oppression of the Imperium.

 

The film

Denis Villeneuve, the director of “Blade Runner 2049”, “Sicario”, “Enemy”, “First Contact” has always been fascinated by the novel by Frank Herbert.

To shoot the first part of this film, he took advantage of a budget of 165 million dollars to reconstruct entire sets so that the images appear more real on screen.

Dune takes its time. Denis Villeneuve sets up the sets and the characters, which are grandiose. The spaceships, the sand worms, the different powers of the people literally transport us to another world. Some scenes are breathtaking.

An epopee…

The Atreides know how to fight better than the others, but they also speak a sign language that comes in handy in case of danger. Oscar Isaac is magnificent as Leto, the betrayed duke.

There are of course similarities with Star Wars, whose power of the Bene Gesserit passed from mother to daughter and in Dune from Jessica to Paul reminds the use of the force present in Star Wars later.

Paul the heir son, played by a lively Thimotée Chalamet has some of the powers passed down by his mother Jessica in the illegal, played by Rebecca Ferguson who recalls the fragility and strength of Michelle Pfeiffer.  The scenes between Paul and his mother are very credible and often very moving.

 

A extraordinary esthetic

It is also a question of ecology and autonomy of people, the Fremen, in harmony with their environment have learned to dominate it and use it against their enemies.

And Paul’s destiny is all set. He must help them, his dreams are in fact visions that he cannot renounce.

We barely see Zendaya, whose character Chani, is very important in the second part.

The aesthetics are everywhere sublime, whether it is the sets, the costumes or the make-up.

Hans Zimmer’s music, even if it sometimes seems too strong, totally immerses us in this sidereal epic.

 

A must-see of course!

In theaters from today.

 

 

What to watch

Scenes from a marriage, HBO series, by Hagai Levi

(The Affair, Be Tipul-En Thérapie-Our Boys) 

 

Synopsis

Jonathan (Oscar Isaac) and Mira (Jessica Chastain) respond to a survey their babysitter is conducting on the couple.

Little by little, the past resurfaces and the unsaid things start to be verbalized.

 

The series

Adapted from the eponymous feature film directed by Ingmar Bergman, starring Liv Ullmann and Erland Josephson, Hagai Levi (discover him on the podcast on him on all platforms) has directed this adaptation at the request of Daniel Bergman, his son.

The complicity of Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain is impressive and the first episode available now on Canal Plus suggests a sequel to the height. 

And I am not surprised. Hagai Levi does it all.

What to watch

The Song of Names, by François Girard

 

Synopsis

In London, a young Polish virtuoso of Jewish origin is taken in by the family of a young boy of the same age. The two children become fast friends. But the Second World War has just broken out. One day, just before a concert, Dovidl disappears without a trace. Decades later, Martin decides to search for his friend.

 

The film

The story begins at the time of the concert. Then the flashback begins and the friendship between the two boys is forged in the middle of the war, at a time when the bonds that are formed are even stronger than in normal circumstances.

The two children played by Misha Handley and Luke Doyle are both prodigious.

The character of Martin (Tim Roth) who is desperate to find Dovidl (Clive Owen) as an adult is both touching. It is through his eyes and his doubts that the director takes us. It will be a journey to the heart of memory, music and a friendship stronger than love.

Synopsis

Over the course of a hot summer day in Los Angeles, the lives of 25 young Angelinos intersect.
