Quand l’immortalité est à nos portes.

Mélanie Tremblay.

Tuer la mort. 402 pages.

Guy Saint-Jean éditeur.

Alors qu’ils sont en vacances en Toscane, Ryan Beckham, agent du FBI, et Lily-Rose L’Espérance, journaliste au New York Today Journal, reçoivent un appel du service de police concernant une mort suspecte. Un cadavre a été repêché près du porte-avions USS Intrepid, amarré au quai 86 à New York. L’autopsie révèle que la victime a fait l’objet d’une greffe expérimentale et qu’elle est morte empoisonnée. Les autorités découvrent non seulement que l’auteur de ce crime serait une femme, mais qu’il s’agirait probablement d’une scientifique chevronnée. Celle-ci est par ailleurs très active puisque la liste des victimes s’allonge : on localise d’autres corps qui ont fait l’objet d’interventions chirurgicales audacieuses suivant le même modus operandi. Qui est cette Savante folle qui pratique des expériences sur des cobayes humains au mépris de toutes les règles éthiques et des protocoles de recherches en vigueur? Pour sa deuxième enquête à l’heure du journalisme 2.0, Lily-Rose L’Espérance doit donc remonter la piste d’un génie qui cherche par tous les moyens à repousser les limites du corps humain grâce aux nouvelles technologies. Quelqu’un pour qui visiblement la fin justifie les moyens…

Mon avis :

La plume de cette écrivaine devient meilleure avec ce deuxième tome. J’ai apprécié le fait que le récit est entrecoupé des articles de journaux que la journaliste écrit et des pensées de la savante folle. Ce qui permet d’accélérer le rythme de la lecture. Le journalisme prend toute la place dans la vie du personnage principal. Les recherche que Lily-Rose font n’arrête jamais. Elle a toujours de quoi à faire. Parfois, sa vie ralentie à cause du doute, mais ce n’est pas plate du tout. L’idée des greffes est intéressante, jusqu’à où peut-on aller avec la science?

Connaissez-vous cette autrice?

a small project snoop of something i started a few days ago.

this bit is purely Logan angst

Characters by: @lumosinlove :

“He doesn’t like me. It’s fine though,” He’s lying right through his teeth. It’s almost funny how much it hurts, still. He wants the blonde to like him, he wants to be able to be around Finn when they inevitably start dating. He wants to be able to laugh with Leo the way Hayley and Ramsey are downstairs, but he screwed his chances after their first meeting. “I don’t want to make the place tense. I'll crash on Benji’s couch. Hang with Lanie.” He pushes himself up and climbs over Finn to get off the bed. He pulls an old sweatshirt over his head.

When Finn makes no move or sound to stop him he looks toward his friend to find his soft brown eyes blown wide and staring. He’s about to ask ‘what’, but Finn sits up, “You still have it…” He sounds so surprised.

“Have…?” He starts, then his eyes trail to where Finns eyes are trained. Logan pushes down the blush, and thumbs at the bottom of the sweatshirt. “Yeah.” He whispers, “I do.”

'Remember the 46 New Brunswickers,' N.B. to go green after 499 days of emergency order: RCMP

According to the New Brunswick RCMP, Friday will mark 499 days since the COVID-19 emergency order was put in place by the province.

And on Saturday at 12:01 a.m., that order won't be renewed – which will mean the removal of all restrictions, from border checks to masks.

In a statement Tuesday, the RCMP's assistant commissioner Larry Tremblay thanked frontline workers and asked that people still follow public health recommendations to stop future spread.

"As we mark the end of the Emergency Measures Act, and move toward a post-pandemic world, please take a moment to remember the 46 New Brunswickers who lost their lives to COVID-19, as well as the many others who have endured the loss of loved ones during this challenging time," he said.

There is a cautious optimism as the last days of the mandatory order tick by.

Liberal leader Roger Melanson says he hasn't decided if he'll keep using masks after Saturday.

"I do know a lot of New Brunswickers are thinking about it," he said.

While he believes the 81.6 per cent of people who have their first dose will get their second, they may not be quick about it.

"What I'm concerned about is the speed of people going for their second shots," he said. "It is summer, the weather is nice and people have things to do, like vacationing and spending time with family and friends. Certainly now with more freedom after Friday, it may not always be top of mind to go for their second dose."

Monday saw a lower vaccine turnout, at about 2,500 people.

The average Monday in July has been about 10,000.

New Brunswick Lung Association CEO Melanie Langille is hoping there's a consideration for one another's health as the province moves into the next phase.

"I hope to see that mask-wearing becomes something that we're comfortable with," she said. "If you have signs of a respiratory infection and you need to go to the grocery store, it would be great if everybody just continues to wear masks to protect each other."

But she says from a COVID management perspective, the province has been proactive.

"I'm quite confident that in our reopening we have weighed the benefits and the potential risks quite well, against the potential overwhelming of our hospital system and the rate of vaccination that we have in our general population, that this is going to be a positive step going forward."

Administrators at the University of New Brunswick say the move to green will also mean they can increase class sizes in September.

"Although some health and safety protocols will remain, physical distancing will no longer be required in classrooms when New Brunswick moves to Green," the university said in a statement. "Over the next few weeks, we will work with faculty to explore opportunities to increase in-person course offerings. Any changes to course delivery methods will be updated in the course timetable by Wednesday, Aug. 11."

The N.B. government is also making plans for Aug. 2 – New Brunswick day. A full schedule of festivities have been planned for the Fredericton-area – including a livestream of some events for those who feel more comfortable viewing from home.

Super-Roundup: June and July 2017

I was out of town during June Roundup Week, so I pushed it all into this super-roundup.  Buckle up.

The Mummy (2017) Dir. Alex Kurtzman. Starring Tom Cruise, Sofia Boutella, Annabelle Wallis. For a cynical cash-in, The Mummy had a lot of cool ideas. I liked the history surrounding the evil mummy, and the monster-hunter group led by Dr. Jekyll (Russell Crowe), and even parts of the silly conclusion. There’s probably a good movie in there somewhere. But alas, those good ideas were stifled under a thick, grey blanket of unfeeling money-grubbing. Why is Tom Cruise in the film? Because Tom Cruise Makes Money. Why is every shot the same dull grey color? Because the Marvel and DC movies are grey, and those movies Make Money. The film isn’t bad exactly, but it is soulless. 5/10.

The Book of Henry (2017) Dir. Colin Trevorrow. Starring Jaeden Lieberher, Naomi Watts, Jacob Tremblay. A true cinematic disaster, magnificent in its ability to fail in ways I never dreamed possible. What begins as an inane precocious-kid flick rapidly morphs into one of the more baffling movie plots I have ever experienced, all while clinging to a totally inappropriate feel-good tone. Ever wanted to see a movie where Sarah Silverman kisses a preteen boy on the lips? This is the film for you! 2/10.

Baby Driver (2017) Dir. Edgar Wright. Starring Ansel Elgort, Lily James, Kevin Spacey. Nobody shoots action like Edgar Wright. Baby Driver is a fast-paced, high-energy car flick with a surprising amount of heart. It gets a lot of mileage out of its terrific supporting cast, especially a deranged Jamie Foxx and a slick Jon Hamm. Sometimes the dialogue gets a little hokey, and the ending stretches credulity, but overall it’s well worth the watch. 8/10.

Okja (2017) Dir. Bong Joon Ho Starring Ahn Seo-Hyun, Tilda Swinton, Jake Gyllenhaal. A semi-entertaining story about a girl and her genetically-engineered superpig. I guess this is supposed to be satire, but I’m not sure who it’s directed at. Is this anti-corporatist? Pro-vegetarian? Anti-GMO? Its total lack of focus leaves it with a toothless The Answer Lies Somewhere In The Middle message barely worth the film it’s stuck to. Not that there aren’t funny moments—Paul Dano is especially great as an animal rights revolutionary—but they don’t add up to much. The film has way more ambition than intelligence. 4/10.

I Don’t Feel At Home In This World Anymore (2017) Dir. Macon Blair. Starring Melanie Lynskey, Elijah Wood. Macon Blair’s directorial debut is a lot of fun and has some impressive flashes of style: one scene stands out in particular, where a painkiller-addled Melanie Lynskey watches a garish reverend lip-sync the soundtrack. But these stylistic efforts felt constrained, or maybe unconfident, which makes sense for a first-time director. Worth watching just for Elijah Wood as Lynskey’s weirdo neighbor. 7/10.

Spider-Man: Homecoming (2017) Dir. Jon Watts. Starring Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Jacob Batalon. Easily the best of the MCU movies for a simple reason: it’s consistent. Spider-Man is a fun IP, and Homecoming is a fun movie, nailing the inherent humor of a high-school superhero. And Michael Keaton’s Vulture is a strong contender for Best MCU Villain (though I think Ultron still beats him). But while the film hints at some interesting class-conflict themes, it instead centers on an underdeveloped coming-of-age story that left me wondering what Peter actually learned. 7/10.

The Beguiled (2017) Dir. Sofia Coppola. Starring Colin Farrell, Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst. A creepy Southern-isolation aesthetic and strong performances from the entire cast, especially Kidman and my perennial favorite Elle Fanning, aren’t enough to save this movie from itself. It’s a character-driven movie where the characterization is inconsistent, making it difficult to care about anyone, much less divine a sense of purpose from the film. The last act in particular feels totally out of nowhere. 5/10.

Dunkirk (2017) Dir. Christopher Nolan. Starring a bunch of interchangeable white guys and Mark Rylance. This is Nolan’s best movie in a long time, but boy was I still bored stiff.  Between the film’s confusing temporal structure, its cast of indistinguishable actors, and its allergy to characterization, it’s difficult to figure out what the heck is going on in any given scene and even harder to care about it. But the film deserves praise for its stunning visuals and flashes of something approaching emotion. Nolan is at his best when tethered to reality. 4/10.

Atomic Blonde (2017) Dir. David Leitch. Starring Charlize Theron, James McAvoy, Sofia Boutella. Very cool, to the exclusion of all other substance. Charlize Theron is a great action hero wasted on a character and story with no depth. But it’s entertaining, despite its lack of ambition, because of the wonderfully choreographed action sequences and visual sense of Cold-War paranoia. 6/10.

A Ghost Story (2017) Dir. David Lowery. Starring Casey Affleck, Rooney Mara. Absolutely beautiful. If you can swallow the premise (Casey Affleck is a ghost wearing a bedsheet with eyeholes), you’re rewarded with an emotionally gripping extended visual metaphor of enormous power, exploring grief, loss, and the very human habit of tethering emotions to places and things. But don’t go to this movie expecting a plotline. 9/10.

The Emoji Movie (2017) Dir. Tony Leondis. Starring T.J. Miller, James Corden, Anna Faris. I want to die. 1/10.

The Diary of a Teenage Girl (2015) Dir. Marielle Heller. Starring Bel Powley, Kristen Wiig, Alexander Skarsgard. Believable, authentic, but ultimately not much more than a run-of-the-mill coming-of-age story. Bel Powley is great as a 15-year-old girl who has a sexual affair with her stepdad, but the rest of the film doesn’t match her personality. 6/10.

Calvary (2014) Dir. John Michael McDonagh. Starring Brendan Gleeson, Kelly Reilly, Chris O’Dowd. Calvary is one of those rare films that manages to balance comedy and melancholy without detracting from either. Brendan Gleeson is excellent as a small-town Irish priest of a wayward flock, and Kelly Reilly is just as good as his daughter (from before he donned the cloth), who struggles with depression. Each individual scene is excellent, and they’re gorgeously framed, but the lack of fluid transition between them makes a thematically consistent film feel disjointed. 8/10.

Mallrats (1995) Dir. Kevin Smith. Starring Jeremy London, Jason Lee, Shannen Doherty. Defiantly juvenile for a film that tries sometimes to be emotionally serious. Where the heroes of Clerks felt like vulgar adults, these characters feel like immature kids. They’re difficult to root for, and the overall amateur look of the film doesn’t give you much to grab onto. But it does pick up a bit at the end. 4/10.

Slacker (1991) Dir. Richard Linklater. Starring: Nobody in particular. Slacker is a series of conversations between mostly unrelated characters in Austin’s early-90’s counterculture. The film is almost purposefully ugly, shot on grainy film with bad equipment, sometimes with the boom mic in the shot. With no characters or visuals to lean on, the film lives and dies by its conversational vignettes. Some are strong: I am particularly fond of the two women who pass out cards from Brian Eno’s “Oblique Strategies” deck to passersby as an art piece. But others totally miss, including the vignette at the very beginning starring Linklater himself. 6/10.

The Conversation (1974) Dir. Francis Ford Coppola. Starring Gene Hackman, John Cazale. A film that survives entirely on tension and suspicion, heightened by one of Hackman’s best performances and an all-time great score. But the plot is a little too thin to sustain the runtime, making the conclusion feel abrupt. 7/10.

My Top 13 Spooky Reads of 2019 #spookystack #halloreads

I don’t know about you, but I love a good book that scares, thrills, excites, and riles me up! If I have to throw a book in the freezer when I’m done with it, I consider that a huge success. Needless to say, October and Halloween are my favorite time of the year.

I’ve read so many good books this year, SO many, and so many of them horror or thrillers. Below are only a few of my favorite creepy…

Everything to Get Excited About at TIFF This Year

The Toronto International Film Festival unofficially marks the beginning of awards season mayhem. Held every year in early September, sandwiched between the end of ‘summer blockbuster season’ and the start of ‘prestige movie season,’ it’s viewed as one of the most reliable harbingers of Oscars buzz. As Vox explains: “The festival’s timing—just after Labour Day—positions it as the de facto opening of awards season, a marathon of mostly serious dramas that lasts about six months, until the Oscars finally wrap it all up in early March.” Given its weighty importance on the film circuit, the announcement of each year’s TIFF lineup is a Pretty Big Deal. Below, some of the things to look forward to this year.

Star power As usual, the TIFF red carpets are sure to be flooded with A-listers. We can expect to see Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, both starring in a remake of the iconic A Star Is Born films; Matthew McConaughey, who appears in White Boy Rick, a true story about a teenage drug kingpin in 1980s Detroit, along with Bel Powley and Jennifer Jason Leigh; and Robert Pattinson and Juliette Binoche, who star in High Life, a sci-fi film by French filmmaker Claire Denis about a group of criminals sent into outer space.

The chance for La La Land vs Moonlight Round 2 Both the directors at the heart of the infamous Oscars envelope snafu in 2017 are likely to be competing in the same awards categories next year too. Damien Chazelle is following up his smash hit La La Land with First Man, a biopic of Neil Armstrong starring Ryan Gosling, while Moonlight’s Barry Jenkins will be showcasing If Beale Street Could Talk, a film adaptation of James Baldwin’s 1974 novel about a young pregnant woman attempting to help exonerate her fiancé, in jail on a false rape charge, before the birth of their child.

Female-centric films There’s a slew of films with women at their core: Red Joan, a true story about one of the KGB’s longest-serving British spies, starring Judi Dench; Galveston, French actress/filmmaker Melanie Laurent’s English-language directorial debut starring Elle Fanning as a young prostitute and Ben Foster as a wounded hitman on the run; Widows, Steve McQueen’s follow-up to his 2013 Oscar-winning 12 Years A Slave, starring Viola Davis, Michelle Rodriguez, Elizabeth Debicki and Cynthia Erivo as four women left to finish a heist after their criminal husbands are all killed; and Girls Of The Sun, a war film that follows a battalion of women fighting to take back their homes from ISIS extremists in Iraqi Kurdistan.

Biopics In Can You Ever Forgive Me?, Melissa McCarthy takes a brief break from ruling the comedy game, starring in this true story about author Lee Israel, infamous for forging historical letters in the 1990s. Hugh Jackman takes on the role of US Senator Gary Hart in Jason Reitman’s The Front Runner.

Films addressing social issues The Hate U Give, starring Amandla Stenberg, Issa Rae, Common, and Riverdale’s KJ Apa, serves as a striking commentary on America’s culture of police brutality, following the story of a young woman whose friend is shot dead by police. Tackling the issues of substance abuse are two films starring two young breakout stars from awards seasons past: Timothee Chalamet and Lucas Hedges. The former stars in Beautiful Boy alongside Steve Carrell, while the latter appears in Ben Is Back as Julia Roberts’ son.

Canadian features Canadian wunderkind Xavier Dolan’s The Death and Life of John F. Donovan, starring Kit Harington, Jason Tremblay, Susan Sarandon and Natalie Portman, and The Hummingbird Project, a thriller directed by Kim Nguyen and starring Jesse Eisenberg, Salma Hayek and Alexander Skarsgård, are both slated to have their world premieres at the festival. Also of note is Gwaai Edenshaw and Helen Haig-Brown’s Edge of the Knife, the first feature-length film to be made in Haida, classified by UNESCO as an endangered language.

Documentaries In the nine-minute short Emptying the Tank, Caroline Monnet documents Chippewa female mixed martial artist Ashley Nichols’ dedication to both her health and her craft, while in Carmine Street Guitars, documentarian Ron Mann captures the allure of famed New York City guitar-maker Rick Kelly. Sharkwater Extinction, the final work by late filmmaker and conservationist Rob Stewart, is the follow-up to his 2006 documentary about shark conservation, Sharkwater, which resulted in shark finning being banned worldwide.

While other film festivals this year made headlines for the paucity of female-helmed films on their roster, TIFF’s artistic director Cameron Bailey told Variety that he expects roughly a third of the final selection of films this year to be by female directors. Films with strong social messages are a recurring theme this year too, and Bailey also stressed the importance of having programming and events that address and discuss the #MeToo and Time’s Up movements, particularly their impact on the global film industry.

“We want to keep the conversation going and to give people an opportunity to talk through what this all means,” said Bailey. “One of the most important things we can do is to really showcase films by women and to make sure that we have a lineup that really reflects who we are as people.”
