Les marchands de sable (2000)
Remarkable "black" script, remarkable direction, remarkable actors.
Remarkable "black" script, remarkable direction, remarkable actors.
We can only regret that the characters are so very dark: incestuous lovers, drug petty dealers, thieves, maffia type `avuncular' godfather, the only good Samaritan appearing as stupid.
Nevertheless do not miss this excellent B movie and keep an eye on the actors' as well as the director's next production.
La débandade (1999)
funny and tragic problem of "andropause' (male "menopause")
This -very french- movies is a little gem. The four main characters are almost perfect: Claude Berri, rarely as good than here, tragically funny in his fight against aging. His wife Fanny Ardant showing, once again, that she can play - and play well- almost anything, Claude Brasseur and Alain Chabat in wonderful cameos. The dialogues are good, fast, the story credible and you will spend two hours very far from your usual problems... unless you are a man in his sixties.
Elle a l'âge de ma fille (1998)
excellent for a TV movie.
Fresh, well casted, well directed, good actors. Unusually good for a TV movie. The conflict of generations is well exposed. The difficulty for a 51 years old man to live with a 25 years old girl-friend or a 25 years old daughter are entertaining. Except if you are 51.
Une affaire de goût (2000)
beautifully written, perfectly casted. A gem.
Bernard Rapp has written and directed here his second film. A masterpiece of psychological study. Bernard Gireaudeau is perfectly ambivalent and equivocal. The others are good to excellent
