You don’t want to go to the cinema anymore and don’t believe much in French films anymore? Do not lose hope : the rooms are full of nuggets, even the French cinema. And this week it is The origin of evil, released in cinemas this Wednesday 5 October, who goes you prove it.
Welcome to the first column of First degreethe weekly meeting in which I recommend THE movie to see at the cinema this week.
To open this format in style, I present to you the third feature film by French director Sébastien Marnier, master of strange characters And twist that no one has seen coming.
The origin of evil, what is it about?
Stéphane is a worker in a factory where they put fish in cans. One day, he reconnects Serge, his father who he never knew.
Go to the island where the immense villa of his father, with Stéphane he reconnects this extremely rich man.
But during this rediscovery, things don’t stop there. She does too the meeting of women who share Serge’s life (and home) – his new wife, Louise, their daughter, George (we begin to find it strange, all these masculine names for women …), the housekeeper, the worried Agnès …
My guarantee: you will scream when you find out the truth
If conditions seem idyllic a priori – the house is by the sea, find Stéphane this beloved dad lost years ago and, at the same time, a family – becomes immediately clear people lie. The beautiful picture cracks on all sides, afflicted with hatred, a jealousy it’s a violence just hidden.
The feeling of weakness provoked by the film is all the more chilling because the actors are excellent. They make the comedy in front of us, spectators, but also in front of it the other characters, within the film. They are Laure Calamy, Doria Tillier, Suzanne Clément and Dominique Blanc at the top of their game.
Rarely, we will have seen such a well thought out scenario and full of surprises. In the origin of evil, it’s all just a farce. Each detail hidden in a corner of the furniture or inside one line of dialogue is a potential index to understand what is happening before our eyes. Everything we believe in falls apart, when what we did not suspect turns out to be the unthinkable truth.
Who are the innocent who are i guilty ? For two good hoursthe film transports you until you find out the origin of evil. And all we can say to not ruin anything is this you will never guess what secrets lurk within these walls.
Premier Rang is the blunt chronicle of Maya Boukella, a pop culture journalist from Losein which he advises you the movies to see at the cinema this week. A weekly appointment to unearth the nuggets of the big screen, showing only the best of the films and releases of the week.
