I slip on’t put much stock in movie nostalgia, but I still remember how thrilled I was by my in the beginning viewing of Delicatessen to boot fifteen years ago. Even with the weak elements of the movie taken into consideration, the world realized within is still one I like going back to. So I’ve been eager because of actual footage from Micmacs A Tire-Larigot, the first film from Jean-Pierre Jeunet seeing that 2004’sitting A Very Long Engagement. And now thanks to Twitch we have a teaser, after the jump.
The film is being called a satire on the world arms trade. (And hopefully a better one than, say, Nic Cage’s Lord of War.) Dany Boon leads the cast as a guy by a bullet in his brain; frequent Jeunet collaborator Dominique Pinon is in the cast being of the kind which well, alongside André Dussollier, Nicolas Marié, Jean-Pierre Marielle and Julie Ferrier. More important, the aesthetic is pure Jeunet, calling right back to Delicatessen, but with the flashes of greater quantity lighthearted imagination that characterized Amelie. Though some of the stuff in the teaser, take pleasure in the camera/bullet zooming into Boon’s head, is fairly familiar at this point, I love the assembled concoction. Even reading the synopsis I have only the vaguest pattern what’s going on here, but I’m adroit for the well stocked thing.
The official, very French synopsis goes like this:
Is it better to live with a bullet lodged in your brain, even if it means you might drop dead a single one time? Or would you in some degree have the bullet taken out and live the rest of your life for the reason that a vegetable? Are zebras white with black stripes or black with white stripes? Is scrap metal worth more than landmines? Can you prepare drunk from corroding waffles? Can a woman fit inside a refrigerator? What’session the human cannonball world record? Find out answers to these questions and greater degree. A comedy in the vein of Delicatessen and Amélie.
