French style small and fresh

In fact, I have never been very fond of French films. I always feel that they express more ideology than storytelling, and French actors are often immersed in their own world with imaginative expressions. In short, neither the director nor the actor is very considerate of the audience's feelings. Especially for a plot controller like me, it is difficult to appreciate films that are full of strong French art. But this time there is an exception, A Tu said, it's not bad, it's a comedy, so I watched it.


The director is Guillaume Canet, who is unfamiliar as a director, and is a good acting idol as an actor. The heroine who was in "Jeux d'enfants" and this film is also Guillaume Canet's current cohabiting girlfriend Marion Cotillard (who has been the heroine. Leonardo's dead wife in the Oscar-winning "La Viejo" and the female second's "inception" (Leonardo's dead wife) had a good performance, that is to say, Guillaume Canet and Marion Cotillard sparked in "No Guess", and then the male The leading actor is the editor and the director, and the heroine continues to shine under the camera of her boyfriend. Usually, this kind of cooperation can always have a good effect, such as Olivia Assayas and Maggie Cheung in "Clean", such as "Let" Jiang Wen and Zhou Yun in "The Bullets Fly", the love and tacit understanding off-camera are blended into the beauty and vividness of the camera.


Closer to home, the standard configuration of many small and fresh movies, such as the use of long shots and various light effects, is as simple as the plot of your life around you, fresh and delicate details of expression, musical elements such as the interspersed guitar, and the naturalness of big-name actors and little-known names. Smooth and unpretentious and other signs tell us that this is a little French fresh, just like its name: little white lies.

The story is very simple, the story of a group of good friends living in Paris who went to the seaside for a vacation (it felt cordial many times because it felt very similar to those around me, and they would get together on weekends to play all kinds of things), the seaside vacation was originally theirs It's a regular program, but this time, there is an important person named Ludo who is similar to Green Tea's entertainment team and was admitted to the hospital in a car accident. Everyone decided to go on vacation but came back early to accompany him. During this period, everyone hides some inhumane white lies: a straight man with a family suddenly finds himself bent one day, and the object of the bend is still his own; the straight man's wife can only suffer Sexual repression and even 3P in the form of online games; You Mingming doesn't love and wants to have all kinds of promiscuity until pregnancy; You Mingming is very in love and pretends to be arrogant and finally loses his true love; Pretend to be generous, pretend to be generous. . . Just when everyone was still immersed in their own entanglement, they learned that Ludo was dead, and everyone began to reflect on themselves in the midst of grief, and began to realize that the root of life for happiness is honesty, and honesty must first face oneself calmly.

What I like about this film is that it is very similar to our life, and it often makes me feel immersed in it, whether it is the happy scenes or those tangled or even white little lies, and finally their most sincere old friend drove 500 kilometers to the funeral scene, Wearing beach pants and wearing a solemn formal dress, he poured a bag of seaside sand into Ludo's cemetery, and everyone in the room cried and laughed. I am a little moved, no matter what, life will continue, just a little more sincerity.
