Movie, series, book. This week’s editor’s picks for top things to watch and read.
Love game
Artists and as a couple, Henri and Nora share everything. Since they fell in love at first sight, he directed plays in which he acts, but dreams of cinema. When he accepts the lead role in the movie, while preparing for their new show, everything explodes. “I wanted to deal with the difficulty of combining life, love and work. The connections between the director and his actor and the act of artistic creation appeared to me as ideal metaphors. Henri and Nora fall in love as soon as they find a stage, their relationship is formed like organizing a show. These two creative movements feed off each other before going against each other,” explains director Victor Rodenbach. Nice roleromantic comedy and remarriage.
After a sclerotic relationship, its characters learn to love each other again without belonging, finding balance in their personal development. Vimala Pons, who is a director along with an acting career, and William Lebgill, a favorite of auteur cinema, enchant this fine film with creative vertigo, the existentialist of the artist. about crisis and love’s second chance.
