Amélie (Jean-Pierre Jeunet, 2001)

Cast: Audrey Tautou, Mathieu Kassovitz, Rufus, Lorella Cravotta, Serge Merlin, Jamel Debbouze, Clotilde Mollet, Claire Maurier, Isabelle Nanty, Dominique Pinon, Artus de Penguern, Yolande Moreau, Urbain Canceller, Maurice Bénichou, Michel Robin. Screenplay: Guillaume Laurant, Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Cinematography: Bruno Delbonnel. Production design: Aline Bonetto. Film editing: Hervé Schneid. Music: Yann Tiersen. Amélie is a charming film, but I have to admit that I'm immune to its charms, finding it a bit self-conscious and much too aggressive in thrusting them upon us. It was a huge international hit, however, and remains a favorite of a lot of people whose taste I trust. Chacun à son goût.

Uma Viagem Extraordinária

Conhecido por O Fabuloso Destino de Amélie Poulain (2001), mas também responsável pelo duvidoso Alien – A Ressurreição (1997), Jean-Pierre Jeunet é dono de uma vasta imaginação. Sua marca como cineasta é misturar lúdico e inusitado e em Uma Viagem Extraordinária (L’Extravagant voyage du jeune et prodigieux T.S. Spivet, 2013) esse estilo está em todos os cantos da tela.

Pour son premier long métrage, Jérémy Clapin adapte le roman “Happy hand” de Guillaume Laurant connu pour ses collaborations avec Jean-Pierre Jeunet entre autres. Le film débute en suivant le destin d’une main qui s’échappe d’un frigo, en quête probablement de ce corps, qu’elle a perdu. Et ces séquences s’alternent avec la vie de Naoufel, un jeune garçon instruit et curieux. Le film prend le contrepied (ou ici la contremain?) du livre en ne dévoilant pas tout d’emblée. La découverte se fait intelligemment au fur et à mesure, au gré des pérégrinations improbables de cette main, de ses souvenirs et de ceux de Naoufel, par le biais des différents sens. Clapin parvient avec beaucoup d’ingéniosité à nous impliquer dans la “vie” de la main et on arrive même à passer outre le fait qu’elle ne devrait pas “voir”. On a peur avec elle, on ressent son bien être. Pour Naoufel, on ne découvre pas tout de façon chronologique, ou du moins il y a un trou entre l’enfance et l’âge adulte qui ne sera expliqué que tardivement dans le film. Pour lui, évidemment, les sens impliqués sont plus variés que ceux de la main, puisqu’il est entier et on le verra évoluer plus autour du son au départ: enfant, il aimait enregistrer des tas de choses sur son magnétophone, notamment sa mère pianiste; jeune adulte, il tombe amoureux d’une voix à un interphone. L’histoire est chouette, ses deux héros attachants et pour ne rien gâcher le graphisme - combinaison de 2D et 3D - est très joli et la musique de Dan Lévy (The Dø) en phase avec l’ensemble.

I was quite surprised how effects that are more than 15 years old look...quite decent...

-

(Hopefully by this point you’ve finished all 122 minutes of ‘Amélie’, the kind of person who isn’t bothered by spoilers, or are just deciding if you still want to keep watching.)

-

Could it be the lighting?

--------

HIGHLIGHT:

INT. CAFE DES 2 MOULINS - DAY

AMELIE walks over to JOSEPH's table.

AMELIE Haven't you caused enough trouble?

JOSEPH Let Gina sort it out.

AMELIE leans closer.

AMELIE I wasn't thinking about Gina. (whispers) I meant Georgette.

JOSEPH Georgette?

AMELIE Wake up. She's craving your attention and you look only at Gina.

This is news to JOSEPH.

AMELIE continues wiping the table.

AMELIE Poor thing...Look at what she resorts to...to get your attention.

She turns to GEORGETTE's station.

Reveal: AMELIE and JOSEPH's POV --- GEORGETTE looking up while applying eye drops.

AMELIE You must be blind.

AMELIE walks away.

JOSEPH looks over at GEORGETTE, not sure what do to.

--------

My verdict of the film: 6/10

Link to the timestamp commentary: (Maybe I’ll do one during a rewatch)

A Formal Review: TBA for link

I Lost My Body (2019)

I Lost My Body (or J’ai perdu mon corps as it’s titled in France) ends on a strange and unexpected note. At first, I didn’t know what to make of it. Haven given it some thought, I do now. In fact, I’m not sure why I didn’t see it before. It’s a weird story that you’re not supposed to take a face value. Don’t look at it as a severed hand's adventure as it looks for its owner. Look at the titular body. What did it REALLY lose? How does that loss ultimately affect them?

Told partially in flashback (I'd say 62-38), we follow a severed hand as it begins searching for its owner. The missing limb belongs to Naoufel (voiced by Hakim Faris), a young pizza delivery man who has an unexpected encounter with Gabrielle (voiced by Victoire Du Bois) over her apartment’s intercom.

So… what is this? A horror movie? A love story? A mystery? A bit of all three, actually. That, and more. When we’re following the hand, you’re reminded of a prison escape brought to life by animators at their best. Our protagonist is nothing but five digits and a palm. Despite this, we get a full range of emotions from it. The ways the fingers fold, the direction in which the stump of a wrist leans, the way the hand skitters on the floor or hesitates tells you so much. Think about what an achievement this is. The character has no voice, no eyes, not even a face and yet it has a complete, emotional story. You’ve got no idea where this is is going or how it ties to Naoufel’s story. You’ll be so busy trying to connect the dots you might even miss the complexity and sophistication of the visuals.

When you’re not being reminded of the Addams family’s Thing, we see something completely different. A sweet story about a young man who suffered a life-altering tragedy, has been going nowhere since, and suddenly finds a reason to do more. You like him. You like her. You want to see them together. Is a happy couple the picture's ultimate destination? That severed hand strongly hints at a no… so what is this story about, if not the two of them? It's about a personal journey and the conclusion is more emotional and grounded than you'd ever expect from the introduction.

I’m glad I decided to sit down and think about I Lost My Body. Initially, I saw it as good but assumed it was selected as one of the year's best animated movies because the list of contenders is always sparse. Now, I see it as a film that’s above the other children-oriented pictures it’s pitted against. This is not a story for children because of the content but also because of the sophisticated themes and emotions. The movie says a lot about its protagonist, which is ironic considering a significant portion of it features no dialogue whatsoever. (Original French Dub, February 3, 2020)

I Lost My Body Trailer

What if the hand from Evil Dead or Idle Hands was as nice as Thing?

Jérémy Clapin’s I Lost My Body follows a severed hand after it escapes a laboratory in Paris as it tries to reconnect with its body. “During a hair-raising escapade across the city, the extremity fends off pigeons and rats alike to reunite with pizza boy Naoufel. Its memories of Naoufel and his love for librarian Gabrielle may provide answers about what caused the hand's separation, and a poetic backdrop for a possible reunion between the three.” The film is based on Guillaume Laurant’s Happy Hand.

I Lost My Body hits select theaters on November 15, 2019, and Netflix on November 29, 2019.
