TEN FILMS AND SERIES ABOUT LOVE

ALL YOU WANT TO KNOW

ABOUT LOVE

 

1.

BE NATURAL

THE LOVE FOR CINEMA

PAMELA GREEN

 

Love

 

 

The official date of birth of the cinema is December 28, 1895.

As early as March 1896, Alice Guy,  Léon Gaumont’s secretary, imagined his future by turning the very first fiction in history: “La Fée aux choux. “(The Cabbage Fairy).

Pamela Green investigated the life of Alice Guy-Blaché.

Alice Guy invented special effects, slow motion, speeded up, superimpositions, blockbuster and even close-ups. Almost all the grammar of today’s cinema. She told people to be natural, and she loved people. maybe that was why she succeeded so well.

By the end of her life she will have made more than a thousand of them.

We follow the director as she carries out the work of a true historian. She finds film reels where we see her on very old films. 

Alice Guy-Blaché began her career in France as a stenographer and then continued her career in the United States. 

Pamela Green also discovers that many women worked as directors but their work was completely obscured afterwards.

This fascinating documentary can be seen at the moment on Canal+ narrated and produced by Jodie Foster whoo is very committed to the defence of women in the movie industry.

As for the women directors, a book will be released on March 4th, and is paying tribute to them, written by Véronique Le Bris: 100 grands films de réalisatrices –  De La fée aux choux à Wonder Woman, Quand les femmes s’emparent du cinéma, prefaced by Julie Gayet.

NOTTING HILL

ROMANTIC COMEDY

ROGER MICHELL

 

Love

 

Notting Hill is the romantic comedy par excellence.

The love story between the famous actress Anna Scott played by Julia Roberts and William Thacker, the bookseller of Notting Hill, played by Hugh Grant, in roommate with the hilarious Spike, played by Rhys Ifans reminds us of William Wyler’s movie Roman Holiday with Gregory Peck and Audrey Hepburn.

Notting Hill distills magic, romance, comedy and the secondary characters are as endearing as the two heroes. Of course, there is the music piece She, performed by Elvis Costello, a love song composed in English by Charles Aznavour for Seven Faces of A Woman, an English series broadcast from 1974 to 1977.

 

 

3.

ALWAYS BE MY MAYBE

ROMANTIC COMEDY

NAHNATCHKA KHAN

 

Love

 

Script : Michael Golamco, Ali Wong, Randall Park

Two childhood friends meet again fifteen years later. Sasha (Ali Wong) is a famous chef and Marcus (Randall Park) works as a plumber in his father’s company while waiting to break through in music…

This romantic comedy is hilarious at times (we think of Jim Carey, the Farelli Brothers).

Keanu Reeves and Randall Park rapping are moments of anthology.

To be seen on Netflix.

 

 

4.

PALM SPRINGS 

MAX BARBAKOW 

ROMANCE

Love

 

If you enjoyed Groundhog Day with Bill Murray and Andy McDowell, then you’ll love Palm Springs.

This romantic comedy is based on a time loop. Nyles played by Andy Samberg, (Brooklyn Nine-Nine television series) and Sarah played by Cristin Milioti (How I Met Your Mother Modern Love ), continuously relives the same day, Cristin’s sister Tala’s wedding day.

A man, Roy, played by J.K. Simmons (Whiplash) is also stuck with them.

The story takes place in the middle of the desert and the colors and contrasts reflect the characters’ solitude and their refusal to face reality (another point in common with Groundhog Day). 

A replica of the film is significant. The protagonists see …. They ask themselves “Are they real? Who cares ? ».

Samuel Jackson makes an appearance at the end.

It is the best romantic comedy I have seen in a long time. 

The soundtrack is great (from Demis Roussos to Hawaiian music,and Leonard Cohen) and you’ll be laughing your ass after five minutes.

 

As from February 12th on Prime Video

 

 

5.


MALCOM & MARIE

SAM LEVINSON

PASSION

Love

 

Highly expected, this film shot during the lockdown  and initiated by Zendaya tells the story of an evening between a director, Malcolm, played by the brilliant John David Washington (Tenet, Blackklansman) actor and former American soccer player, and his girlfriend Marie, played by Zendaya, a brilliant actress, revealed in the Euphoria series and winner of an Emmy this year (the youngest winner in the history of Emmys).

 

THE PITCH

 

Malcolm returns from the screening of his film at a preview. He is happy and wishes to celebrate this event. Marie is not happy because he did not thank him, even though the film is inspired by her life as a former drug addict. And the argument begins.

What could be oppressive for the viewer is not.

The two actors are prodigious and complement each other completely. The breaks and the crazy soundtrack give us time to mature the story of this couple in crisis. Shot in black and white, the aesthetics are magnificent and their bodies too, and Zendaya‘s talent explodes again.

Sam Levinson once again tackles a subject he knows well for having treated it in Euphoria, the drug. Zendaya doesn’t play the role of a drug addict as in Euphoria, but of a former drug addict with all the self-hatred and alienation from society that that implies.

And if the subject is simple, the film is a real success. The actors echo each other’s words like ping pong balls and remind me of certain scenes, in a more dramatic register of Noah Baumbach‘s movie, Marriage Story.

To be seen at the moment on NETFLIX.

 

 

 

6

HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

PER OLAV SORENSEN

THE QUEST FOR LOVE

Love

 

Season 2 of Home for Christmas on Netflix takes us once again into the funny and slightly zany universe of its heroine, Johanne, played by Ida Elise Broch.

The series, created by Per-Olav Sorensen, takes place in Norway, and Johanne, in her thirties, “eternally” single, no longer wants to come alone to Christmas dinners, a time when family and social pressure is at its peak.

From one season to the next, the young heroine searches for herself, between old relationships, friends and family. Shot in Norway in a world worthy of Santa Claus himself – at night Johanne travels around the city by sleigh – this romantic comedy with very endearing secondary characters does us good and tells us a story where small joys sometimes count more than big ones.

 

 

7.

BRIDGERTON

 CHRIS VAN DUSEN 

LOVE GAMES

Love

 

 

Created by producer Shonda Rhimes and show runner Chris Van Dusen, inspired by the novels of Julia Quinn (the first nine books), the series tells the story of Daphne Bridgerton played by Pheobe Dynevor (seen in the series Snatch), the oldest Bridgerton, one of the wealthiest families in London.

The story takes place during the Regency period (1811-1820) and just like in Little Women, women are raised for one purpose, marriage. The beginning of the season arrives, the women are presented, like beautiful cattle, to the men.

Daphne’s widowed mother raises her children alone, assisted by the eldest son, Anthony, an eternal runner who has also struggled to adapt to the rigid society in which he lives.

A gossip magazine regularly circulates about the latest antics of the most prominent people in English society, two of whom are the target, Daphne Bridgerton and Simon Basset played by René-Jean Page (seen in the series Roots).

The characters evolve from one episode to another in sumptuous sets and costumes and of course love will be there but not necessarily as expected …

A season 2 would be envisaged.

To see at the moment on Netflix. With the voice of Julia Andrews.

 

 

8.

 ABOUT TIME

RICHARD CURTIS

TIMES OF LOVE

Love

 

What if…

By chance, Tim, played by Domhall Gleeson, discovers that he can travel back in time at the age of 21 by peeping into a closet in his house (a bit like Narnia).

He falls in love with Mary, played by Rachel McAdams. From then on, he won’t have to stop travelling through time to fix his mistakes…

Brilliantly played, tender and funny, this romantic comedy has as an asset the presence of the touching Bill Nighy (sensational actor with an obvious comic potential, seen in Love Actually and Good Morning England) who plays Tim’s father.

Tim tries to live each moment as if it were his last. The secret of happiness?

Note also the presence of Margot Robbie (The Wolf of Wall Street, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood…).

 

 

 

9.

LIFE IN A DAY

KEVIN MACDONALD

LOVE OF MANKIND

Love

 

At the call of director Kevin Macdonald and producer Ridley Scott, people from around the world filmed their day on July 25, 2020 and sent in their contributions for a documentary.

Ten years ago, Ridley Scott and Kevin Macdonald directed a documentary, Life in a Day. The idea: to paint a portrait of a day like any other on Earth, by putting together extracts from videos shot by tens of thousands of anonymous people around the world.

They are re-releasing the concept with Life in a Day 2020, presented on Monday, February 1 at the Sundance Independent Film Festival (USA), and which is available in streaming since February 6 on YouTube. It was very moving to watch it live last Saturday. We were talking  from all different countries.

Kevin Macdonald, Oscar winner for his documentary Un jour en septembre and director of The Last King of Scotland, had agreed to take over the concept of Life in a Day .

This extraordinary documentary (editing must have taken so many hours..) is a unique testimony of these pandemic times and will be a milestone.

NOW, VOYAGER

IRVING RAPPER

THE LOVE OF YOURSELF

Love

 

 

I discovered this extraordinary film thanks to my daughter Déborah, directed by Irving Rapper, which is neither a drama nor a romantic comedy, but the quest of a young woman, Charlotte Vale, played by Bette Davis, raised by a tyrannical and possessive mother from the Boston bourgeoisie.

A psychoanalyst comes to her aid and her life will change. On a cruise, she will meet a man and will finally free herself from the demons of the past.

Psychoanalysis is at the heart of the film. When the heroine gets rid of her fears, she ends up loving herself and freeing herself from the hold of her destructive mother, and everything becomes possible.

You should know that the last line of the film is one of the most beautiful I have heard in the cinema.

Adapted from the novel written by Olive Higgins Prouty. 

Irving Rapper has revealed Bette Davis, and will shoot four films with her, her last film is Born Again in 1978 on the Watergate. He lived to be 101 years old.

 

 

 

 

AND

NEWS OF THE WORLD

PAUL GREENGRASS

Love

 

This western is a total success.

1870. Texas. Afro American are lynched. Violence is everywhere.

Captain Jefferson Kyle Kidd, played by Tom Hanks, goes from town to town to read the news to the inhabitants. He is a newsman. He discovers in the forest a frightened, abandoned little girl, Johanna, played by Helena Zengel. She was kidnapped at a very young age by the Indians who murdered her family.

She is Indian, speaks only Kiowa and has not received any “American” education.

Captain Jefferson is planning to bring her back to her family but it will not be without pitfalls.

Paul Greengrass is a journalist as well as a filmmaker. We feel in this film his love of stories and words, and especially of information, one of the foundations of democracy.

Tom Hanks and the young Helena Zengel (nominated for the Golden Globes this year) play together these wounded, nomadic characters who love beautiful stories.

To be seen on Netflix today.

 

 

LITLLE BIG WOMEN

JOSEPH HSU

 

Love

 

This beautiful family film broadcast on Netflix tells the story of a mother who has raised her three daughters alone and finds herself widowed.

Her husband left her twenty years ago and returned to Taiwan to die. He dies on her birthday and she still wants to celebrate him…

A film about grief, family secrets and guilt, Little Big Women is a film about the torments of girls torn between their feelings and their filial duty.

 

 

SOULMATES

WILLIAM BRIDGES & BRETT GOLDSTEIN

 

Love

 

Created by the writers of Stranger Things and Black Mirror, William Bridges and Brett Goldstein, this six-episode series (renewed for a second season) projects us into a world where science can determine who our soul mate is.

All you have to do is take a test.

Tested couples who have found their soulmate walk down the street, happy and confident. Some happy couples who met before the test question themselves.

In the first episode, Nikki and Franklin met as young people and parents of two young children. But they are approaching 40 and are beginning to question themselves.

Brilliantly played by two great actors that are Sarah Snook (seen in the series Succession) and Kingsley Ben Adir (One night in Miami), the first episode of the series makes you want to see the others.

 

Currently on Prime Video

 

PARIS POLICE 1900

FABIEN NURY

 

Paris Police 1900

Canal+

 

This series created by Fabien Nury, scriptwriter (Guyana series) and comic book author, takes us to the Paris of 1900, as Alfred Dreyfus is about to be tried for a second trial.

Félix Faure has just died.

We plunge directly into a France where anti-Semitism is exacerbated and where no one hides their anti-Semitism, nor their racism, where women are mistreated and depend completely on men, an ugly France, a violent France.

A police intrigue is the pretext to put us in the bath of History with a capital H. The body of a woman is found in a suitcase. And Antoine Jouin, a young inspector, leads the investigation.

Served by excellent actors and a very good direction, it is a series with big means.

Many historians have participated in it. That also explains the quality of its reconstructions.

All sounds alas right and has a sad resonance with our time.

To see at the moment on Canal +: 8 episodes. 

 

With Jérémie Laheurte, Evelyne Brochu, Thibault Evrard

 

 

 

YEH BALLET

SOONI TARAPOREVALA

Love

 

This film tells the true story of two poor young boys from the suburbs of Mumbai,played by Achintya Bose as Amiruddin Shah and Manish Chauhan as Nishu,  who dream of becoming dancers.

An Israeli teacher, Saul, played by Julian Sands, who emigrated to the United States, arrives in India  to give classes to all the students who are lucky enough to be admitted to the local dance school. But he is embittered, angry and does not get used to the habits of the country.

This classical and beautiful film with great moments of dance (like Billy Elliot) has the merit of showing us another vision of India, an optimistic vision of the country, which gives its young people the opportunity to flourish and succeed, even if this means they have to go into exile.

On Netflix, now.

your movies and series

 

If you have seen Bewitched by Sol Saks with Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York, and you liked this style of humor then you will love Wandavision.

The story is about a witch, Wanda Maximoff, (red witch in Marvel) married to a man who is none other than a robot superhero, Vision. But of course he changes his appearance when he goes to work.

The sketches are in the same vein of Bewitched  but a mystery hovers in this suburb.The characters evolve in a black and white setting and Wanda perceives color at times.

Funny, this light-hearted series is easy to watch.

Produced by Marvel Studios, we are expecting discoveries in the next episodes (there are 9 in all).

Both actors are sensational.

Currently on Disney+ (9 episodes) – Every Friday at 9. A.M

With Elisabeth Olsen et Paul Bettany
