I watched Guillaume Gallienne's film "Me, Again Me and Mother", the original title of which sounds like "Boys and Guillaume, to the table", again it is not very clear why it was necessary to try to hammer the meaning of the film into the viewer's head at once (probably in case he does not understand). They say that the film is completely autobiographical (even the name in the film is preserved), moreover, the author of the script (and before that - the play) and director Guillaume Gallienne plays in this film the main character and his mother too. And the movie, oddly enough, is pretty good. The film tells the story of a not quite ordinary boy, who for a long time considered himself a girl, because he grew up not like his other two brothers - typical boys, athletes, which greatly upset his father, but which, perhaps not quite consciously, indulged his mother, whom he loved very much and whom he tried to imitate. And how, after all, he defined himself as straight, not homosexual (the latter in the film are not very politically correct). The film was liked in Cannes, where it received two prizes (not a palm branch, but still) and was nominated in 2014 for Cesar.
