“Paris, the Roaring Twenties. Choreographer Ida Rubinstein chooses Maurice Ravel to compose the music for her next ballet. She wants something bold, something sensual. Well known and established, Ravel finds himself unable to write anything. Reliving his memories, facing his old loves and failures, the composer will give birth to his greatest success ever: the Bolero.” – Synopsis
Every 15 minutes, according to a title at the end of director Anne Fontaine‘s latest film, someone on earth plays Maurice Ravel’s “Boléro.” Some impressionistic structuring, and a calmly charismatic performance from Raphaël Personnaz, elevate Anne Fontaine’s absorbing biopic of Maurice Ravel. – Variety

“A king (wealthy thanks to his banker donkey) falls in love with his daughter because he’d promised his dying wife that he would only marry a woman more beautiful than she was…
Thanks to the tricks and ploys of her godmother, the Lilac Fairy, his daughter resists his advances. She demands extraordinary dresses and then hides beneath a donkey’s hide. In the end, she marries a prince.” – Synopsis
Sugary, unreal, saturated with colors, and with a tendency to put kitsch to its absolute limit (and then a bit further), Peau d’Âne is one of those mad oddities of a film that you will either love or hate. Chances are that you will love it, especially if you have enjoyed Demy’s better known films. – Frenchfilms.org

☞THE MOVIE:

On May 10th, it will be exactly 4 years to the day that the journey of Le Joli Mai 2020 began, and it wasn’t going to stop there…No-one could have imagined the obstacles we would have to face to reach the end of this adventure, but here we are: the film is finished and subtitled in English!
The whole crew is deeply grateful for the contributions of our kisskissbankers, some of them from the Lost in Frenchlation family, and we decided to plan this screening as part of the Lost in Frenchlation programme for those of you who might be interested in this project started by Manon, Lost in Frenchlation founder, Pranav, inspired by the first French film he saw in the cinema, Le Joli Mai, and Pauline and Cédric who joined them to direct it.

« Le Joli Mai shot by Chris Marker and Pierre Lhomme in the streets of Paris was released in May 1963. Sixty years ago. It immortalized on film a fragment of time. It is the genesis of this film.The first deconfinement also took place in May 2020… the shock of months of lockdown, an experience without precedent, inspired us to film life coming back to a world that would never be the same again – to feel the pulse of the city, and meet its population still stunned by the pandemic.Because of the emergency and the impossibility to prepare the filming in a traditional production framework, we started shooting in a very improvised way, without anyone’s help or agreement. As soon as the lockdown ended, we immediately set out with the material we had at hand… in search of life starting again. » – Synopsis

“After ten days of competition, the Games were a fiasco for the French delegation which failed to win any gold medals. All hopes of the title now rest on Paul, an exceptional sports shooter but an immature and not very smart athlete. As the competition approaches, he is forced to share his room with Jacob, a swimmer from Vanuatu, who seems more preoccupied by the extra-sporting temptations of the village than by his race.” – Synopsis
“Less a sports comedy than a hilarious questioning of the contemporary values ​​of sport, L’Esprit Coubertin seduces with its desire not to stick to any framework of the genre, exploring both the question, often evaded, of the desire of athletes as well as the political resonance of their exploits.” – CQ Magazine

Add to that a very successful and, above all, particularly eclectic soundtrack: Washington by Jake.” – In the Mood for Cinema

☞THE MOVIE:
“After making homophobic remarks, Matthias Le Goff, vice-world champion in swimming, is condemned to coach “Les Crevettes Pailletées”, a gay water polo team, motivated more by partying than by competition. This explosive team will then travel to Croatia to participate in the Gay Games, the largest homosexual sporting gathering in the world. The path traveled will be an opportunity for Matthias to discover an offbeat universe which will shake up all his benchmarks and allow him to review his priorities in life.” – Synopsis
“If Les Crevettes plays mischievously with fire and knows it (this is the condition of laughter), it in no way claims any realism but an obvious comic excess which enjoys clichés whether for the validate or dynamite them. Note that unlike the typical scenario of many other comedies, none of the characters suddenly find themselves redeemed by a reassuring return to the “norm”. The film opts instead for a conventional and good-natured praise of difference.” – Le Monde

Carried by a group of irresistible supporting roles (Laura Felpin, Grégoire Ludig or the brilliant DAVA duo as sports commentators), Jérémie Sein’s cinematic baptism of fire is not perfect, sometimes remains timid in its execution, but has enough qualities to make you want to follow the director’s journey in his next projects.” – CQ Magazine
