Petite Maman
Benvenuti o bentornati sul nostro blog. Nello scorso articolo abbiamo deciso di cambiare argomento e di passare al mondo dei fumetti recensendo, dopo tantissimo tempo, un comic sui supereroi ossia Superman: Su nel cielo. In questa storia Superman scopre che una bambina orfana è stata rapita da degli alieni e, dopo una lunga riflessione, decide di abbandonare la Terra per cercarla, intraprendendo…

Karidja Touré in Girlhood (Céline Sciamma, 2014) Cast: Karidja Touré, Assa Sylla, Lindsay Karamoh, Mariétou Touré, Idrissa Diabaté, Simina Soumaré, Dielika Coulibaly, Cyril Mendy, Djibril Gueye, Binta Diop, Chance N'Guessan. Screenplay: Céline Sciamma. Cinematography: Crystel Fournier. Production design: Thomas Grézaud. Film editing: Julien Lacheray. Music: Jean-Baptiste de Laubier. Girlhood is an altogether absorbing look at young lives in the Paris banlieue, which might also be a description of Mathieu Kassovitz's celebrated 1995 film La Haine. But the difference between the two is striking and important: La Haine was about young men, a Jew, a Black, and an Arab, and worked out its story a little self-consciously as a commentary on the relations among three major ethnic groups. Its writer-director and its three principals were male, with all the implications of privilege that suggests. But Girlhood was written and directed by a woman, and its protagonist is female, a Black teenager named Marieme (Karidja Touré), who is determined to go her own way in life. Told that she doesn't have the grades to go to high school but should choose vocational education instead, Marieme rebels, determined to find her way against the odds. She falls in with a group of girls -- the French title was Bande de Filles, which might be translated Gang of Girls -- and adopts their ways, which include a little shoplifting, a little bullying of smaller kids for money, and excursions into Paris for the bright lights of the big city. They also include fights with other gangs, and when the leader of Marieme's gang, Lady (Assa Sylla), loses a fight and is embarrassed, Marieme, who has become known as "Vic," short for "Victory," takes on the winner of that fight and triumphs, stripping off the other girl's top and using a knife to cut away her bra as a trophy. Still, she must face the outside world. Her mother, Asma (Binta Diop), works as a maid in a large hotel and arranges for Marieme to take a job there, but she turns it down. Her life at home becomes intolerable when she sleeps with her boyfriend, Ismaël, and is beaten for being a slut by her older brother, Djibril (Cyril Mendy). So she goes to work as a runner for Abou (Djibril Gueye), a drug dealer, which gives her an income, a place to live, and some glimpse of the high life. But the end of the film finds her still solitary, still facing obstacles. Girlhood is a smart, sad movie with a deeply engaging performance by Touré, and a strong supporting cast.

Thank you. And to think I was about to end my career as a script writer. This prize brings me back to my initial solitude which would then be contradicted by the unravelling of the adventure that would consist exclusively of gazes being exchanged. And this exchange of these collaborative gazes has been the most beautiful adventure of my life as a filmmaker. 
Allow me to detach myself from this award and to rather talk about the people who gave life, the gaze of Claire Mathon, Director of Photography, the gaze of Delphine Daull, the Assistant Director, the gaze of Christel Baras, the Casting Director, the gaze of Julien Lacheray, the Editor, the gaze under which I grew, Bénédicte Couvreur, my Producer and the gaze of Adèle Haenel and Noémie Merlant to whom I owe an eternal thank you - 12 years apart they came through the door and I saw the future. 
Voilà, merci.
Le prix du scénario est remis à Portrait de la Jeune Fille en Feu de Céline Sciamma - Cannes | 25 May 2019

lockdown film no. 14 - Naissance des pieuvres (2007) dir. Céline Sciamma
10/04/2020
after seeing portrait I really wanted to see this since I know that sciamma and haenel met on the film. watched it on bob
- for a film where very little happens, I got surprisingly invested
- basically one of the most beautiful coming of age films I’ve seen in ages
- Floriane deserves the world
- it took me a second to get used to Anne because she looked so much older than everyone else
- the sound design at the start was a bit crude like cutting in and out really abruptly with the applause and the opening credits
- using the sport of synchro swimming was really clever in that underneath the water their legs are churning away to make sure that what’s on the surface looks perfect. And when they’re performing they count to stay in time so they can still look perfect and as the same as everyone else as they can, it’s the perfect metaphor of being a teenage girl
- also the fact that they have to wear makeup and have perfect hair and smile in a completely fabricated way is bizarre
- the bit where Marie was using boxes of washing powder to try and get stronger was fantastic
- “one’s heavier than the other.” “my mum did a wash”
- the fact that in this film Adele haenel plays the main object of desire of most of the characters is really significant because of the role that she plays in portrait of a lady on fire. Celine sciamma wrote héloïse specifically for Adele, in a film that completely subverts the idea of an “object” of desire and the concept of a muse when those things have been engrained in society forever. That
- the chewing gum scene had a stupid amount of tension I cannot believe
- it was filmed perfectly for the style of film that it was, the camerawork was so simple but they just let us sit with the characters and observe what they were doing without feeling like they had to do anything flashy with the way that we were watching them
- the inspection scene was something else. She says “Inspection!” you think it’s going to be for makeup or hair or to make sure their costume is ok. But they all line up and it’s literally to police their bodies and encourage shame amongst the girls that body hair is something to be publicly humiliated for having. And then they that link to how men will see them and that gives it a sexual layer. Just rank, but an important thing to have in film
- when floriane gave Marie her medal and asked if she was happy that was soft
- THE WATER CHEEK SPLASHING SCENE MY GOD GENIUS
- i haven’t seen many films before where characters just laugh together and that’s the bulk of the scene, and its authentic
- I haven’t had the thing before where you’re really obsessed and in love with a person so I can’t really relate to it in a big way but they did a really good job of portraying it in a way that wasn’t shiny
- like stealing your crush’s bin and eating an apple core that she threw away isn’t cute
- I cannot get over how good an actor Adele haenel is
- the nightclub scene was so painful
- with Marie just standing there and everyone dancing around her that was really relatable. Like being in a place where everyone seems to be having fun, including the person you’re with and you’re not
- Marie likes floriane so much but the thought of actually kissing her or them having sex is so anxiety inducing that all she can so is kiss the lipstick mark floriane left on her window
- I don’t know a great deal about child nudity laws in film in France but its something I want to know more about
- céline sciammas cameo in mcdo was unexpected and marvellous
- the scene where Marie and floriane try to have sex is kind of heartbreaking. They don’t talk, they don’t take time to work up to what floriane feels she wants to happen, its all just terrible. And then link it back to the scene where they were lying on the bed and Marie talks about how many people have ceilings in their eyes cos its the last thing they see before they die, and then how in this scene floriane was staring at the ceiling the whole time apart from when she was crying, and you realise a bit of her died when that happened
- I wasn’t expecting a child to bury her bra in the garden but that was surprisingly moving
- the scene where François effectively raped Anne was one of the most uncomfortable things ever. Only redeemed by the fact that she spat in his mouth and just left later on
- the difference from the beginning and end of how Marie responds to floriane telling her “come here”, in the chewing gum scene she moved about a centimetre and floriane was the one who moved her head to where Marie was. And then at the end floriane said “come here” and Marie walked across a whole changing room to kiss her
- Marie washing her mouth from the pool and not the sink after kissing floriane was interested
- the ending with floriane, isolated, apparently completely unaware of how she’s affected this girl who’s in love with her, who’s now floating in an empty pool with her best friend was pretty incredible
- 10/10 would recommend. Pretty weird in parts but first films are rarely perfect

Adèle Haenel and Pauline Acquart in Water Lilies (Céline Sciamma, 2007) Cast: Pauline Acquart, Louise Blachère, Adèle Haenel, Warren Jacquin, Christel Baras, Marie Gili-Pierre, Alice de Lencquesaing, Claire Pierrat, Barbara Renard, Esther Sironneau, Jérémie Steib, Yvonne Villemaire, Christophe Vandevelde. Screenplay: Céline Sciamma. Cinematography: Crystel Fournier. Production design: Gwendel Bescond. Film editing: Julien Lacheray. Music: Jean-Baptiste de Laubier. I admit to a certain queasiness about watching Water Lilies, with its almost too intimate exploration of the lives of teenage girls, including some nudity. Céline Sciamma of course wants us to feel that way, to make us aware of these adolescent bodies as well as the souls that inhabit them. One girl, Marie (Pauline Acquart), is skinny and awkward; another, Anne (Louise Blachère), is on the verge of being overweight; and the third, Florine (Adèle Haenel), is flat-out beautiful. All of them spend much of their time at the swimming pool, where Florine is the star of a group of synchronized swimmers, and Anne coaches a group of beginners. Marie is the hanger-on who watches the other girls with a too-eager eye. At the film's start, she and Anne are close, but as Marie becomes involved with Florine, the two drift apart. There is a pivotal boy in the ensemble, the handsome François (Warren Jacquin), whom Anne desires -- at one point she she sees him looking at her naked in the locker room; she doesn't cover up in embarrassment but is rather pleased, and begins to try to win him. But François is after Florine, who strikes a deal with Marie: She'll let Marie watch the group practicing if she'll help her sneak out of the house at night to meet with François. Eventually, a different relationship develops between Marie and Florine. Sciamma choreographs this pas de quatre well, but there's something a little too formulaic and voyeuristic about the film, which doesn't resolve itself into significance. Still, its portrait of the sexual confusion of adolescence is often achingly real.

Adèle Haenel and Noémie Merlant in Portrait of a Lady on Fire (Céline Sciamma, 2019) Cast: Noémie Merlant, Adèle Haenel, Luàna Bajrami, Valeria Golino, Christel Baras, Armande Boulanger, Guy Delamarche, Clément Bouyssou. Screenplay: Céline Sciamma. Cinematography: Claire Mathon. Production design: Thomas Grézaud. Film editing: Julien Lacheray. Music: Jean-Baptiste de Laubier, Arthur Simonini. It isn't just the title of Céline Sciamma's Portrait of a Lady on Fire that made me think of Henry James. It's the film's delicate and subtle treatment of a Jamesian theme, the intersection of consciousnesses, and the fact that Sciamma, as James did in some of his stories, uses an artist as a vehicle for developing the theme. I also found the film something of a revelation of Sciamma's great talent after watching two of her previous films, Water Lilies (2007) and Girlhood (2014). The contemporary setting of those films necessitated a kind of documentary realism that is set aside for Portrait of a Lady on Fire, with its 18th-century setting and more rigid moral codes serving as limitations on its characters, defining their roles and allowing us to confront their responses to the limitation with clarity. It's also fascinating, I think, to compare Sciamma's film with Abdellatif Kechiche's Blue Is the Warmest Color (2013), a film heavily defined by the male gaze, while Sciamma's view of the lesbian relationship of her characters, Marianne (Noémie Merlant) and Héloïse (Adèle Haenel), is an exploration of female "looking." There are extraordinary moments that perhaps only a woman might have imagined, or imaged, throughout the film: The abortion that takes place with the maid Sophie (Luàna Bajrami) lying across the bed while a baby plays with her face; the festival that seems to be made up mostly of women, at which Héloïse's dress catches fire; Marianne leaping from the boat to rescue her paints and canvases; Marianne propping a mirror against the nude Héloïse's mons veneris so she can sketch a self-portrait on page 28 (the page number will become significant later in the film) of Héloïse's copy of Ovid, where the story of Opheus and Eurydice is told. Reviewers of the film reached a little too often and too eagerly for the word "masterpiece," an epithet that can only be applied by time, but it's certainly an extraordinary film, made so by fine performances, and by Claire Mathon's cinematography and Dorothée Guiraud's costumes, which often evoke the paintings of Chardin.
