Transposition perfect of the Japrisot
7 September 2015
The grace of the writing of Sebastien Japrisot has always been lucky in meeting with cinema:Compartiment tueurs-Costa Gravras, 1965, Piège pour Cendrillon- Andre Cayatte 1965 & Iain Softley, 2013, Un long dimanche de fiançailles, Jean-Pierre Jeunet, 2004. It lacked the appeal La Dame dans l'auto avec des lunettes et un fusil (1968). The USA version,The Lady in the Car with Glasses and a Gun, despite of stars (Litvak Dir. with Samanthe Eggar and Oliver Reed) lacks of the the subtle perversion and 68 french touch of the Novel. Joann Sfar entered in original text with extraordinary delicacy, and it is able to return to us all the flavors of the novel(including the hidden social dimension), amplifying everything with the music and and a stunning, innocent, sensual Freya Mavor.You must to see it, and enjoy it as a unmistakable song,
