History with problems, but fun
5 June 2017
Warning: Spoilers
It is clear that Adèle (Vanessa Paradis) is a subject problematic and unlucky. A girl considered by men but most often alluded and abandoned. On the other hand there is the figure Gabor (Daniel Auteuil), a knife launcher: when Adèle is about to commit suicide from Paris on a bridge the two meet. The screenplay of this film in black and white seems to capture the magical realism of the 1950s where the protagonists are a kind story of solitary souls, eccentric, but basically two people desperate to search happiness. A choice of Patrice Lecont who supports cynical and tragic humor: the plot reveals a real issue of life or death where the luck of the protagonists is constantly challenged, he throws knives while she becomes the target of the target. To conclude, despite metaphorically I love Vanessa Paradis and the film I liked I recognize for the female protagonist an adolescent role that which plays with life and death.
