The film "Little White Lies" lays out the story with the most relaxed and natural atmosphere of life, deconstructs the selfishness, confusion and imperfection of human nature in a soothing and romantic tone, and points out the flaws of the civilized society. This film is somewhat similar to Polanski's "Killing", it is also a group play, and it is also a concern for the soul of an individual in Western civilization. On the one hand, "Killing" is full of gunpowder, and the ending is even more helpless and frustrating. This film is the third film by the handsome French guy Guillaume Canet and Marion Cotillard since he joined hands with Marion Cotillard in "No Guess". The film received rave reviews as soon as it was released and became the best-selling film in France. The domestic box office surpassed the "Inception" of the same year, thus once again proving the strength of Guillaume-Kane, making those rumors that frequently questioned the ability of Guillaume-Kane no longer. Attack yourself.
The story is locked on a group of middle-class people who live a leisurely life. For this group of people who live without worry, alcohol, love games, and carnival are like the pacemaker of life, supporting and stimulating the increasingly empty and numb soul, but after the madness, waiting Theirs is a wider nothingness, and they too need a "real" beach trip to wash their chaotic minds. Therefore, when Ludo's life was dying, after some struggles, the group of iron buddies and sisters found plausible excuses to offset the guilt that swelled in their hearts from time to time, and happily went to this long-awaited trip. In fact, they didn't know in their hearts that this team, which lacked a few people compared to previous years, was not only full of concerns, but also separated from each other. Not all problems could be solved in one trip.
Marx showed his success everywhere, and seemed to be generous in sharing his resort and yacht with his friends. His wife also took care of this group of bankrupt souls like a big sister. The advantages of psychology and geography make Marx full of the psychological superiority of Big Brother, and the asymmetrical relationship with Vincent always plagues him, making him angry at every turn. On the other hand, Vincent is like an angry little resentful woman. His resentful eyes, restrained emotional impulses, and unspeakable secrets all made him feel on pins and needles during this supposedly pleasant trip. Mary is a woman who no longer believes in true love. She has a strong sense of independence. Since breaking up with Ludo, she has clearly separated her friends from men. This is the bottom line she never crosses. Friends can share all kinds of life together. Happy, but no sexual contact, and a man is just a sex partner, life has nothing to do with him. She was the most guilty of this trip. She was supposed to be with Ludo's sick bed, but she enjoyed the blue sea and blue sky. When an uninvited guest joined the team because of her, it completely destroyed Mary's good mood. Eric and Anthony, the broken-hearted brothers and sisters, the cool sea breeze did not blow away the shadows in their hearts, but made them more deeply aware of the mistakes they had made after the release of the waves, so they embarked on a journey of chasing love again. .
The cast of this film is quite spectacular, with a lot of humor and humor, and the beautiful soundtrack and interlude are especially worthy of praise. Like Dustin Hoffman's François Crucey, who played Max, he also played the leading role in the 2011 hit "Untouchable", and his mature acting skills added a lot to the film. The elegant and amorous Vincent is played by the former Cannes actor Benoit Maguimel. He has small eyes, blurred eyes and strong electricity. He interprets the image of a person who is deeply in love and ashamed. Marion Cotillard is even more aura, no need to repeat, those big eyes full of stories have long been self-evident.
Ludo's death marked a sentence for this seemingly pleasant trip. Lies and hypocrisy finally became unsustainable. They washed away their guilt with tears. The new life in the womb seems to signal hope and rebirth. Fortunately, it's not too late to mend the dead, good buddies, most of the beloved ones are still there, and everything can start again.
