On March 12, Albert Dupontel did not attend the triumph of his film, which was awarded seven times at the 46th Cesar ceremony. Rejecting the principle of competition, the artist found out when he woke up that the box of his seventh feature film was full. For him, only the opinion of the public is important. Released on October 21, 2020, a week before the second curfew and movie theaters close, goodbye fools It attracted 700,000 spectators! Then, as soon as the theaters reopened, the public began to tremble again at the tragicomic woes of the crippled group that went in search of a child born under X twenty-five years ago.
Hairdresser, archivist and computer expert
So, we witness the unenchanted bourling of Suze Trapet (Virginie Efira), the hairdresser victim of a terminal occupational disease, the suicidal computer scientist JB (Albert Dupontel) and the archivist Mr. Blin (Nicolas Marie). boarded, whose blindness does not interfere with prudence. Together, these adorable broken arms are so emotionally connected and unfortunately resisting the dehumanization of our disconnected 2.0 society. Dupontel explains: “I started with the idea of opposing someone who wanted to live but couldn’t, to someone who could but didn’t want to live.” A fan of the director’s singular work, Efira embodies a feeling that keeps this borrowed woman on the verge of tears, who had to abandon her baby at the age of 15.
Virginia’s feeling
“Virginie showed herself with great humility towards trials. Especially in the case of Suze Trapet, her sexy and popular side came through very strongly with her. The emotion that belongs to Virginie alone speaks volumes in the melancholy of the project.“Common enthusiasm: “Albert is someone who knows how to tell people stories. His style! With him, there’s no mediocrity.” The actor adds with admiration: “In an hour and a half, he manages to deal with the violence of business, birth under X, Alzheimer’s disease, disability, suicide, administrative upheavals, sanitization of new cities, mobile and computer addiction.“Who says it’s better? Our modern day, weak versus strong and strong versus weak, has a lot in common with the dystopian world of Brazil. Out of friendship, the old Monty Python turns out to be a weapon dealer. “I pay him a modest homage, Dupontel, by describing the same Kafkaesque deviations from the world today.“The melancholy optimistic filmmaker succeeds. If in his eyes love and culture are the antidote to ambient bullshit, the epilogue of the anarcho-romantic tale is eroded by its radicalism. Dupontel’s cinema is never at ease. It scrambles to better warn, challenges us.
