Rupture 1961
Things move quickly in a Pierre Étaix movie (I can generalize with confidence now that I've seen two). His character keeps on running into serious problems, and making lightning decisions about how to handle them – which always leads to worse problems. Eleven minutes of total hilarity.

Étaix is a memorable actor, and the man who spends the whole twelve minutes driving around with shaving cream on his face also deserves a mention (except I don't know his name).

La bataille de Saint-Léonard 2024
J'aurais voulu un film avec une plus grande capacité d'analyse, un regard plus sociologique, une explication plus claire des revendications. Bon, ça n'est pas le film que Félix Rose a fait ! Ce qui compte vraiment pour lui, c'est d'une part l'histoire personnelle de deux individus et de leur famille, et d'autre part le champ politique au niveau le plus élevé, celui des premiers ministres. Entre les deux, l'histoire de Saint-Léonard et des groupes qui l'habitent est à peine esquissée.…
