The cinema outings of the week with Thierry Fiorile and Matteu Maestracci: “When you grow up” by Andréa Bescond and Eric Métayer and “Beau Is Afraid” by Ari Aster.
In an Ehpad, we follow in particular Yannick, caregiver played by Vincent Macaigne, in an establishment under tension, faced with budgetary restrictions, and which, to make matters worse, must accommodate schoolchildren whose canteen is closed, led by Aïssa Maïga alias Aude, their host. The cohabitation between all these little people, and in particular, children and residents, will give rise to many comical, serious or funny moments.
If the very autobiographical Tickles in 2018, evoked a heavy and personal subject, but treated with a little lightness and humor, here, in When you are older by Andréa Bescond and Eric Métayer, it’s a bit the opposite, we are clearly in a comedy, with a lot of situational gags, but with a social and political fund on the lack of means of establishments for the elderly, and the exhaustion of personnel, which makes human support ever more difficult. A charming film on arrival, with endearing actors.
Beau Is Afraid d’Ari Aster
A river film of 3 hours, which never stops, and for good reason, we are in a waking nightmare, which bathes in the classic theme of Ashkenazi culture, the mother-son relationship. It’s Philip Roth on acid, a dystopian, dreamlike and terribly epic vision of a Freudian and hilarious Oedipus.
Beau, Joaquin Phoenix, is a man steeped in anguish, who must find his mother who we guess is suffocating, invasive, we will only see her at the end. The film is a crazy odyssey. Beau in the shabby apartment of a large ultra-violent city, Beau taken in by a standard American family, but gone mad, since the death of the son in the army, Beau in the forest, where he sees his own life on a theater scene, plus a flashback to adolescence, which explains a lot of things and a delirious finale, Ari Aster is clearly in a romantic universe.
