  Aznavour by Charles 2019

  ★★★ Watched 16 Mar 2025

  This is an interesting concept for a documentary but I think it lacked a bit of weight at some points. Having watched the biopic Monsieur Aznavour first, a few things stood out to me

  - scenes from MA which essentially were recreated from here
  - an interview with Charles' son at a young age describing how he was learning Armenian and his own Armenian identity
  - footage from Charles' trip to Yerevan where he meets his nene (grandma) for the first time and thoughts on the Armenian diaspora/connection to the country.

  Also enjoyed Roman Duris' narration, a great choice for this.

  I mean, Laure Calamy was actually Josh Safdie's muse when he wrote Uncahh Jarrms.
