Pauline Acquart - Retenez Son Nom

[DMt.]

I'm hoping Los Feliz will whizz through the art house here in Manc...probably end up with a DVD anyway, but still it'd be very nice to see it cine scale...

...but still it'd be very nice to see it cine scale...

That's for sure, but I'm not as hopeful for us poor slobs in Adelaide.

[DMt.]

It's not a cert here either, Fish, and maybe only a week somewhere [if we're lucky].

I guess it'll be down to what distribution deals can be made...

[fish]

I guess it's a bit hard to w*rk out what their distribution market is.
French actress, English language.
Might do really well in both countries.....or neither.

Same with Yukika I suppose.
Japanese / English.

Good thing Phil's from England.
Nice to be able to rely on the devil.

He keeps running along that little rail and he hasn't fallen off even once.

Looks like you're closer to Sydney than I am.

So you say that Australia should also be called Atlantis?

Review by SB Vogel.

It's interesting, but is it a review or a complete retelling of the movie?

I have finally seen Le chant des sirènes, after 2 months of postponing. Good short film, good work by the actors (and the main actor's wig ) and the story is interesting. I liked the ambiguity of the father, he appears to be a real asshole and hypocrite but at the same time, because the narration is from his point of view, he can be understood and empathised with (to some extent, at least). Even assholes have regrets. Thus, he appears to be a person that fought against his perverted nature and at one point stopped caring about what he becomes. He surrendered.
Acquart appears to be much older than 15 years (that her character is supposed to be) though, which makes certain dialogues less believable (but not as much as the wig does), e.g. that her character doesn't know what Chernobyl is. But other than that, it's Acquart-ful (so rare) time and she's good.

We answer to most anything if there's a drink in it.

Review by SB Vogel.

I certainly hope there's lots more that she didn't disclose.
Hate to think it was all spoilers.

...and the main actor's wig...

It's a classic isn't it?
I was hoping to find one like it for myself.



I thought Le Chant des Sirènes was enjoyable, seeing her character's struggles against such a sleaze of a father.
And Pauline was in lots of it too which is nice.

[fish]

I mean, it's not like I'm not looking or anything.
It's just that she seems to have gone into hiding or something.

[fish]

...or anything...

Only a showing of Los Feliz last night and tonight.
In Manchester?
In Adelaide?
In Villach, Austria.

Some people have all the luck.


As I said, some people.........

I love me a HappyAcquart pic. They're quite rare...

[fish]

...They're quite rare...

Sadly so.

I call this one "Still Life".

Another "moment" from Le Chant des Sirènes.

Pauline is interested but hasn't said she's going yet, but, the Côté Court festival in Pantin is saying the actors/crew will be there for the last screening.
Anywhere near you Owen?
