Alice is a young woman fresh out of her philosophy studies. Coming from a brilliant background, she dreams of a successful career. However, when she moves to Lyon for a professional opportunity and is told that her job has been abolished, the opposite happens. She is then assigned to one of those perfectly useless functions: giving ideas to the mayor, who no longer possesses a single one after thirty years in politics. Only superficially useless: Alice will stimulate the mayor's mind. But beyond what's necessary for Lyon's political equilibrium.
Trois courts-métrages sont présentés cette année par Pierrot Productions, une association basée à l'Université de Neuchâtel et ayant pour but d'initier les étudiants aux médias du cinéma. Une production ambitieuse qui impressionne par sa qualité. Les trois shorts seront projetés en séance publique ce soir à l'Aula des Jeunes-Rives, Espace Tilo-Frey 1, à 18h15.
L'idéalisme, mais le travail. Le documentaire Tout est possible, dont le titre anglais est encore plus kitsch (The biggest little farm), raconte les années de labeur d'un couple américain qui décide de tout quitter pour aller fonder leur ferme en harmonie avec la nature. Il y parviendront, après des années de travail. Or, parviendrons-nous à en parler sans tomber dans le convenu?
Stallone has the power to convey such intense feelings. Because his acting is always true, his acting is always dignified, his acting always comes from the intimacy of his strong, sensitive self. Even in a turnip.
Todd Phillips« »The Joker" tells the story of Arthur Fleck's gradual fall into the abyss of madness. Joaquin Phoenix splendidly embodies the role of one of the most complex characters in the DC Comics universe.
In this new comedy from Guillaume Nicloux, Gérard Depadieu and Michel Houllebecq (the real deal) meet in a thalassotherapy establishment. Philosophizing endlessly about trivial matters, they try to cope with their cure as best they can, while taking potshots at today's society. A film somewhere between a schoolboy documentary and an exercise in style.
Céline Sciamma's latest film, which won an award at Cannes for its screenplay, depicts the encounter and burgeoning passion between two 19th-century women. The director of Tomboy sets her story ablaze with an impressive, impressionistic plot about a painter who has to conceal from her model the fact that she has been commissioned to paint her portrait on canvas. An apt reflection on love and memory through the prism of the image.
Passion is passed down from one generation to the next. So do injuries and mistakes. Clifford McBride (Tommy Lee Jones) was a hero. He achieved great things in astronomy. Unfortunately, he and his crew never returned from their last expedition, the LIMA project. This prompted his son, Roy McBride (Brad Pitt), to follow in his father's footsteps. Astronaut in his turn, hero in his turn.
