I went to see Vaurien (which means 'good for nothing' but which has been given the incredibly mild English language title 'Rascal.'). It's about a guy who has just been released from prison, a bit charming but very quickly unbearably creepy. He sponges off anyone, sleeps in squats, works a bit, and casually kills with no reason whatsoever. Women are attracted to him. Most men find him at least interesting. They are so wrong.
I noticed that this was only released in about half a dozen cinemas in Paris, whereas normal movies are released in 30-40 places (and blockbusters in about a hundred). I fully understand the caution of the distributor because this movie had me squirming with discomfort within about 3 minutes and that feeling continued through to the end.

I saw La Nuée (The Swarm in English), an ecological horror movie. A struggling grasshopper farmer can't make ends meet, especialy while raising two children. Her grasshoppers are not reproducing fast enough, and they're not as big and juicy as they need to be. Although she does have a small sideline in roasted grasshopper snacks, the main point of grasshopper farming is to grind the product into meal to feed animals. Besides being rich in fibres, protein, vitamins and minerals, grasshopper farming produces 100 times less greenhouse gases and needs 50 times less water to produce. What could go wrong?
I was delighted to receive a gift box of grasshopper snacks at the end of the projection ("contains 50 insects"). I'll try to save it for the next Anyport meetup.

Sometimes I change my planned movie at the last minute, in this case 10 minutes. I went to one of the "early" multiplexes today at 08:00 and suddenly chose to see A Quiet Place part II because it started at 08:10 while the movie on which I had planned didn't start until 08:20. This is not to say that I had not planned to see the movie, but it was lower on my priority list.
Anyway, it was quite disappointing compared to the first edition. The alien creatures are as horrible and scary as ever, but their deadly motivations make less and less sense. Okay, it is normal for us not to understand the motivations of aliens, but still... It was the humans that I found the most disappointing. We have the valiant mother, adolescent son and slightly younger deaf daughter, also a baby to be carried around in a suitcase, often with an oxygen mask on his face to avoid both crying and suffocation.
I assume that you know that the point of the suspense is to not make any noise at any time because the aliens are sightless but they have excellent hearing. In the first movie, one of the main conventions was that everybody walks barefoot because this makes less noise, and this is maintained in the new movie although I am not at all convinced. There are plenty of kinds of footwear that allow you to walk without making any noise. They all have the filthiest feet in the world (worse than hobbits), because all sorts of hygiene appear to have been abandoned, since they are dirty all over even though this is not the desert but a rather wet area where it didn't seem to me that it would be impossible to quietly wash from time to time.
Another huge annoyance to me was the use of candles, but this is valid for just about every movie or television show. In the alternate universe of cinema and television, there appears to be an infinite supply of candles because in every candlelit room there are always at least 20 candles burning, even in corners where they are not needed. In real life, I'm pretty sure that I would make do with just one or two candles. On top of that, in this movie there were also still lightbulbs working (a bit to my surprise because it has been a year and half since the aliens arrived to fuck up the world), so why use candles, too?
Okay, the plot. Woman and kids have to leave their refuge and end up in another refuge with a hostile stranger (Cillian Murphy). But he is not a stranger at all because they knew him from before. For questionable plot reasons, they break up with no plan at all into three groups. Deaf girl has run off because she has guessed that there is a safe place on a nearby island. Mother forces Cillian Murphy to go after her and bring her back. Meanwhile, Mother has her own quest -- to find medical supplies. Teenage son got his leg mangled in a bear trap and also she needs a new oxygen tank for when she has to stuff her baby in the suitcase. Current tank is nearly empty. And finally, when the mangled son is alone, he decides to go exploring a bit because he can still hobble.
So the last part of the movie ends up following these three different plots threads with the requisite jump scares, etc.
At the end of the movie, the problems are partially resolved but not completely, meaning that A Quiet Place part III is inevitable. I hope they have enough candles.

I wouldn't call 143 rue du désert a documentary. It is more a hypnotic observation of the life of Malika, an old woman who runs a snack bar in the middle of the Sahara on national highway 1. She has a cat and two dogs for companionship. People do drop by for a goblet of tea or an omelette -- truck drivers, soldiers, an imam, a musical group and even a Polish motorcyclist, an adventuress trying to cross the entire Magreb, even though she had to go from Morocco to France to Algeria due to the perpetual closure of the Moroccan-Algerian border.
She dozes in her chair, everything is covered with dust, the cat shows up to be briefly carressed from time to time. But you can tell it's all coming to an end because there is a service station under construction down the road with a modern new snack bar. What will become of Malika?

Cinquième Set (Final Set en anglais) concerns something about which a lot of people are passionate every June -- the French Open. The movie is about a 37 year old tennis player who had a promising career when he was 20 years younger, but he had an injury and lost it all. He is still classed about 340 in the ratings, but that isn't high enough for an automatic qualification for Roland Garros, so he has to go through the qualifying round. He barely scapes through and when names are drawn for the first round of the tournament, he is set against the new rising French tennis star, practically a death sentence.
His mother Kristin Scott-Thomas is a tennis bitch. She refused to attend any of his matches over the years due to his injury. His wife gave up tennis to support the family, and she is getting tired of it... Is there any hope for him?
I was totally gobsmacked by the quality of the editing, since the star Alex Lutz is no tennis star, but it is absolutely impossible to tell the difference from his tennis double in the scenes on the court. (Of course television cameras often film the players' backs, so it was probably a bit easier than for a lot of other sports but it was still impressive.)
I am not a big fan of movies about sports, but this one won me over.

I have to admit that the movie Gagarine absolutely melted my heart. Of course the principal reason is that it was filmed in the Cité Youri Gagarine in the suburbs just before demolition. One or two people here might remember that I made a report about the Youri Gagarine apartment complex ( This is the link!) in Ivry-sur-Seine just before demolition was to begin. There had been a number of articles about it in the press because it was such a bittersweet event. People spent 60 years there and it was the only place that their children knew. Everybody knew that it was run down and couldn't be fixed anymore, but that is true of a lot of our stuff that we don't want to throw away. The movie opens with extraordinary archive footage of Yuri Gagarin's visit to the brand new complex, where he plants a tree and inaugurates a plaque. The filmmakers give eternal thanks to the Communist party for keeping the report in their film archives, because the tree and the plaque are long gone and nobody even knows where they were. The story begins with official inspections by the municipality of the condition of the building (deplorable) and the residents being worried that they will be evicted. ("Where will we go?") And that is indeed what happens although lots of the people are happy about it ("We're going to have a garden!"). When the big moving days come, there are a lot of tears. Most people are being dispersed and they have no idea if they will ever again see the neighbours with whom their shared their entire lives. But one person is determined to stay -- Youri, a teenager. His mother sneaked away at the last minute filled with guilt. There wasn't enough room for him where she was going, especially with the little sibling to take care of. She leaves a note saying that he'll be fine with his cousins and leaves him a small stash of cash. Youri decides that he is staying in Gagarine no matter what. The building empties out and soon he is the only resident. He is convinced that if he keeps the lights on and the lift running, they cannot get rid of him. An intrepid Roma mechanic girl helps him. Love is in the air although they are not quite yet of the age to take things to another level. Youri is obsessed with the space programme (not really primarily the Russian one) and has a very sophisticated telescope to observe the stars, and he also spends a lot of time watching videos of the ISS and other such things. Little by little, he breaks through walls to the neighbouring apartments and creates his own ISS with keyboards and blinking lights and futuristic panels and also a space greenhouse for vegetables, just like in Silent Running. His friends think he is a bit crazy, but "nice" crazy -- the Roma girl and also the local minor drug dealer who still occupies his normal location even though all of his customers are gone. The Roma girl climbs construction cranes and they exchange messages in Morse during the night, like space stations drifting near each other. Obviously the real world rears its ugly head sooner or later. This movie was actually filmed in tha Gagarine complex because they were given an area for that while the demolition was starting. The apartments still have photos and other frames on the walls and some furniture items that had been abandoned. I am going to have to return there to see the empty lot.

Since other members have pointed out my mental deficiencies, I thought it might be useful to add this review, especially since Variety is rarely indulgent concerning minor independent foreign movies.

Samir Guesmi is a much appreciated character actor of Maghrebi origin in France. There is no lack of such actors, but he has the advantage or playing gentle, friendly characters and was never typecast as a criminal or drug dealer. In Ibrahim (which he directed), he is the single illiterate father of a teenage boy who has the wrong friends. He was an ex drug addict, as was his wife who died, but now he is doing his best to improve his life and of course that of his son. His drug days left him half toothless, but he has contracted to get dentures to fix this problem so that he can change from dishwasher in a brasserie to waiter. But his son screws up and ruins everything. Can things be fixed? Hard to know...

Another great film today, clicking all my boxes about being exotic, teaching me something about an unknown place and giving me a glimpse of a culture to which I have never had access. Tokyo Shaking is about a French executive (the always amazing Karin Viard). She works for a French investment bank and moved to Tokyo several months ago with her children, leaving her husband in Hong Kong. (He is not happy, but he has always followed her everywhere in this alternate world where the wife's career is more important.) I have been to Tokyo twice but not for a long time. The opening scenes of the movie were so strange in how modern they looked -- it is December 2010, and she is taking the subway to work. Everybody is wearing masks in the subway as well as most of the people in the street. Remind you of anything? Anyway, life goes on, although the teenage daughter is a bit pissed that all of her friends are back in Hong Kong. And then, on 11 March 2011, there is the big 9.1 earthquake. In the movie you first see just the office atmosphere -- a little shaking, then more shaking, and then really absolutely scary shaking with everything falling off the wall and the desks. But the Japanese are used to this, although generally not so violently. They start picking up their stuff at the office, but there are news screens everywhere which begin to show them how bad it was. We have all seen tsunami footage from that time but most of what we saw was on smartphones or laptops. Believe me, to finally see it on the big screen is very impressive. Okay, moving along... The Japanese employees have major disruptions, but they are sort of used to it. No subway, no buses... Either you walk home or you sleep at the office. For the expats, it is another matter -- they are mostly terrified. And when news comes out about the Fukushima power plant, they go ballistic. This was all so familiar from recent times. The Japanese government announces that there is no problem. Everything is under control. And the foreign embassies (among which the French embassy) say to trust the Japanese government announcements. The expats are not so sure. Some have already left and others bolt when the first reactor blows up. And things go downhill from there. (I can't even imagine how people felt when the second reactor blew up and then a third one...) This is where learning about Japanese culture comes in. Karin Viard has been hanging on, a bit misinformed by one of her heighbours in the building who works for Areva (the French nuclear power company at the time). She is worried about her Japanese employees as well as her Congolese intern. The company says they have chartered a private flight to evacuate the employees (and families) who want to leave, well 280 of them, but that will never be enough. Later they say that sorry, there is no flight after all even though everybody has been contacted. The Japanese government has not authorised the flight because they don't want to cause a panic. Some people have fled to Kyoto, which is safer, but a cloud of nuclear contamination is headed in the direction of Tokyo (I'm sure they didn't make this up.). One of the most telling moments is when most of Karin Viard's staff returns to the office where she has been working alone with the Congolese intern (whose visa to France was refused because the embassy was too busy with the crisis). And that's when an important facet of Japanese culture is revealed. Karin Viard says that they are brave to have returned to work but one of her assistants says, "No it is the opposite. We are all afraid, but it is even worse to be accused of being afraid, so we were obliged to return." Anyway, we all know how the Fukushima shit ended, so nothing to worry about, right? Why did they bother to make a movie when there was no problem?

I was curious about the agitation surrounding In the Heights. As you probably know, it is about horrible Latino migrants enacting the Great Replacement in a neighbourhood of New York City, but there was a protest that there weren't enough darkies in it. It's about hard-working new Americans who still find time to sing and dance. According to the one-drop tradition, it looked to me as though they should all be labelled African-American, but apparently there is a lot of social competition according to one's complexion -- not in the movie but in the people watching the movie. So much for boasts about a post racial society.
The main thing that I was worried about was dammit it lasts two and a half hours and I am not a big fan of musicals in the first place. But I must admit that although I was happy to see it finally end, I was not bored and I did not feel the time pass, although I had a brief panic when it seemed to be winding down, except that the main character had not returned to the Dominican Republic yet. "OMG, what if we're only half way through?" But no, it was a simple trick and I did not have to check my watch.
The songs were mostly insignificant and seemed outdated, which is totally normal since the original stage musical dates from 2005. However, yes, it was well done and I didn't regret seeing it. What is strange is that Spielberg was filming West Side Story in the same neighbourhood at the same time. Not due until December. Whew...
So, while we're on the subject...

I hate spy movies, especially period spy movies. But you may have noticed that I see all sorts of things, so I went to see The Courier starring Benedict Cumberbatch. Boring salesman, trips to Moscow, dull contacts... Actually, the last part of the movie was quite good but thankfully it had none of that Tom Cruise stuff. The fact that it was a true story and the guy saved the world from primitive nuclear destruction is probably a plus.

I thought Minari was excellent. I have always liked Korean cinema, but this movie fascinated me more for its sociological observations of Arkansas in 1983 than for its standard "farmer in trouble" plot which was hackneyed. And Youn Yuh-jung as the grandmother was beyond fabulous and richly deserved her Oscar for best supporting actress.
This movie totally confirmed my impressions of childhood in Mississippi but also things my stepfather said after returning to his birth state of North Carolina after more than 50 years. In other words (at least in the rural areas), those people are weird!

For obscure reasons, I saw not one but two French horror movies today. This is a true exploit considering how few horror movies the French make, having left that task to other countries. The first one was the horror-comedy Teddy, about the town oaf who gets bitten... Frankly, I don't know of many countries that would have a cunnilingus scene where the recipient complains about the quality of the tongue (which is growing werewolf fur). There was a wimpy trailer with English subtitles, but I preferred the original French one. One interesting thing to note is that Anthony Bajon is an amazing actor and won the best actor award at the Berlin film festival in 2018 for his performance in the amazing movie The Prayer. He was also relatively chubby then. Not anymore.
The second movie was The Deep House, which is your typical "let's visit the haunted house" movie. We have a British Urbex Youtuber and his girlfriend looking for cool stuff. But this urban exploration is a bit more challenging. The house has been submerged by a dam, so it requires scuba diving. They are taken there by a creepy man (always), and after swimming over the submerged family graveyard, they find the house, more or a manor. But it is all sealed up -- the front door is welded shut, the windows are barricaded... Why? They finally get in through a small attic window and work their way down.
We have claustrophobic areas, limits on oxygen tanks, murky water which limits visibility. Add the fact that the house is still fully furnished and has stuff floating around, and we definitely have a horror movie. Not a funny one either. When they see the huge crucifix in the kitchen, which has been placed in front of a hidden door, things can only go downhill. I was definitely stressed out, and I am usually pretty impervious to most horror movies. It was the claustrophobic element that got me, added to the diminishing oxygen and the fact that they were deep enough to have to worry about decompressing pauses before coming to the surface... What happens in the deep house stays in the deep house!

Today's movie should have been good, but I found it boring and useless. In Présidents, two former presidents, Nicolas S. and François H. meet up by accident in a rural area. Although they were extreme political opponents, they can't stand the new guy and start plotting to unite for a new political career. They just can't decide which of the two should be a candidate again. I have always been a big fan of the director Anne Fontaine, but this was total shit for me. The critics liked it.

I thought I would try something standard for once and what a mistake! I went to see The Hitman's Wife's Bodyguard and it was hard to believe how bad it was. Actually, it seemed to me to just be a contest about which character (Ryan Reynolds, Samuel L. Jackson, Salma Hayek) could say "fuck" the greatest number of times. well, Salma Hayek won hands down, so you don't have to see it for that. I'm not sure what the exact plot was, since it was the usual contest of killing as many people as possible and maybe each other. Who could possibly care? And yet this is the kind of movie that people go to see. Sheesh!

I went to a test screening of Délicieux, a new movie about fine food. The final version might be tweaked a little since we had to fill out questionaires after the movie, but I found nothing to change. The movie takes place just before the Revolution when a duke's chef is kicked out after having the nerve to serve potatoes. The Church says that anything that grows underground is despicable. The disgraced chef moves into a postal relay station and makes bread... and then he makes a little more. Little by little, the restaurant is invented. What if we marked what we are serving on a signboard? What if we made individual tables? If the tables were set ahead of time, it would make people hungrier to see the empty plates and glasses, no? It is really quite fascinating to see how restaurant meals were invented.
Naturally, there are lots of scenes of fabulous food, so the movie is sure to do well in export markets.

I found the South African film Moffie to be rather clumsy and somewhat confusing. Since it was adapted from a book, I imagine that it is either because too much material was left out or too much material was left in. It takes place in 1981 when apartheid is still in place and South Africa is "fighting communism" (?) on the Angolan border. The plot follows one of the young conscripts (2 years obligatory military service) and the others around him. The military is run by totally brutal Afrikaners, and they seem to despise the English speaking South Africans almost as much as the blacks. And of course the other problem is that "moffie" means "faggot" so anybody suspected of falling into that category is dealt with "appropriately."
The movie succeeded in showing spectacular landscapes and the atmosphere of apartheid, the communities living as though black people do not even exist. I am well aware that not all of them were bad people, but I cannot even begin to imagine the shock they experienced when their world came to an end. (At least they had a slight warning by observing events in Rhodesia.) I would recommended seeing the movie for its sociological content but not for its artistic merit.

Well, of course. At one point the apprentice (Isabelle Carré) is experimenting with potatoes and has the chef taste them. "I cut them into strips and fried them in oil." The chef tastes them and says "they're good, but they are really ugly. There is no way that this could ever catch on." So obviously there are a number of jokes in the movie. I never believed for a moment that they invented restaurants, but it was a delightful gimmick.

Benedetta is purportedly the most scandalous "major" movie at the Cannes festival this year, or at least scandalous for certain cultures. Here it is forbidden under age 12. So there's not much to worry about. Of course the Dutch director Paul Verhoeven (Basic Instinct, Showgirls, Starship Troopers, Elle, etc.) ensures that there will be a few scenes to shock. Benedetta was a 17th century Italian nun (this is true) who had visions, spoke in tongues and went on trial for lesbian activities at a time when it was not believed that a lesbian could even exist. Most of the shocking events come straight from the transcript of her trial, like it or not. The black plague was ravaging Italy at the time, so this ensures plenty of extra gruesome scenes. Also there was a bright comet at the time which was obviously a celestial message. And then there's the bit about the statue of the Virgin Mary carved to serve as a dildo.
It's a bit long but never boring, and the performances are excellent. But why wasn't the movie made in Italian?

The title is Charlatan all over the world, but in France the title of this Czech film is The Trial of the Herbalist, which seems more appropriate to me. The protagonist is accused of being a charlatan, but was he? It's about Jan Mikolásek, who was put in trial in Czechoslovakia in 1958 after having been accused of poisoning two communist officials. Over the years he treated village peasants, he treated Nazis, he treated the president (who died) and all without being a doctor, since he just gave herbal remedies which he learned as a young man from an old lady who was a peasant healer. The fact that he had a relationship with his male assistant for 20 years even though they were both married, was an additional complication.
I wasn't sure that the movie would interest me, but I put my faith in the excellent director Agnieszka Holland, who has directed numerous excellent things over the years. The story was not nearly as dusty as one might expect for something that goes from the 1930s to the very boring 1950s of Eastern Europe.
Since he does all of his diagnoses looking at flasks or test tubes of urine, I would say that it is the most difficult part. Some of that pee is really bad, wih floating things, even worms, blood, total ick. And he can tell people precisely what the problem is and prescribe the appropriate remedy after just a few seconds. (Or can he, if he is a charlatan?) He is both famous and controversial with a lot of bad press, because he is not always diplomatic. "I can't do anything for you because you are about to die." But he still treats about 300 people a day until he is arrested.

We thought the movie was quite interesting due to the fact that it was based on a true story and I did research the characters afterwards and found there stories intriguing.

Director Julia Ducournau looks like a perfectly normal young filmmaker, but anybody who saw Raw a few yers ago might have their doubts. Now she has come out with Titane which should dispel any thoughts that she will make a traditional movie one of these days.
A young girl suffers terrible injuries in a car crash (which she causes). Part of her skull is replaced by a titanium plate. Ten years later, she is one of those slutty car show performers. She drops the soap in the collective showers and gets her hair caught in the nipple piercing of one of the other women. Not important, but just imagine if a male director lingered over a scene like that in 2021 (and the movie does linger). Anyway, then she kills four or five people with a huge hairpin after a few incidents. She plunges it through their heads. Oh, wait, no she kills her parents by burning down the house with them locked inside. Poor orphan!
Then the story can get started. She cuts her hair and passes herself off as the missing son (after ten years) of the captain of a fire station. To look more convincing, she tries to break her nose by punching herself, but ends up having to smash her face on the side of a sink. (I had to close my eyes for a second or two, but it didn't do any good because the sound effects were probably even worse.) The man is delighted to accept her, but it's pretty clear that he isn't all there. She plays mute so as not to give away her gender.
Okay fine, but then there's the matter of the sex act she performed alone in car a bit earlier. Her vagina starts leaking motor oil and her abdomen is clearly inflating. (She keeps all bodily bulges tightly wrapped to maintain a male appearance although people are less and less fooled.) Then her nipples start leaking motor oil.
This isn't going to end well, is it? But at least we get to see what comes out of her at the end.
