A duet? Trio? Quartet? Oh, those French! - You, this-- understand, Aleftina. I didn’t sleep all night, thought, weighed. I can't find a better wife! I am not young, unattractive... Here, my stomach is growing! On the head, it's the opposite! Kha-ha-ha-ha-ha. So you and I are two pairs of boots! I won't cheat on you. You won't be for me either. Who would be flattered? Right?
- How do you understand that? Are you in love with me, what are you saying?
- What did I say? I didn't say that. I will love you and I promise to give you every penny. . .
'Zigzag of luck', 1968, dir. E. Ryazanov
People usually get married. Joining the Union, so to speak. That together, that together, that together, that together, that forever, that up to the coffin, that I may die in one day, if I may. And then, 'batz'! What happened? Where'd it go? Where are you? There is it, this love, or only a fiction, a projection of a rudiment from the depths of centuries.
Movie? No, fascinating ' lamour' where everything is intertwined. There is an element of melodrama in the romance of the relationships of the heroes, and dramatic collisions in the experiences for the fate of persons for the audience, and the intrigue of the thriller in anticipation of the development, denouement, and even detective crime with terry training on the heads of overworked, overworked, lost shores.
The director skillfully put in the plot and husband, wife, and all accompanying them in the disturbances of the worldly sea. The story is simple and yet the story is ambiguous. She keeps in suspense throughout the narrative, sagging nowhere, never giving a failure anywhere. It's impossible to get away from the screen. You attach your heart for two hours, without a minimum, to human pranks and yourself, you try on these dresses, these costumes on us.
When the French talk about love, it is impossible to pass by. In this science, they are stronger than anyone else. All without exception - professors, academicians, doctors. Candidates, of course, also abound, but grow quickly, mature - in an instant. Experience, experience almost with the beginning of the path-path in Cupid's foam. Today, children do not warm up the audience.
Henri (Benjamin Biolay) is a conductor under contract at the Vienna Philharmonic. He's about fifty. Wife Eva (Karin Vyar) Director of the media library in carelessness wake up with the application of forces. They are almost the same age, although she is a little older than her husband. Both are French, but they work in Austria. Luxury housing, elite neighborhood, not impossible for these two. A young son, a schoolboy, adopted - by the harmony of the order of the usefulness of the cell of society. And wine from the Motherland, and cheese from the Motherland, and meat from the Motherland, and communication by status with ' cream of society' the author's entourage of the supplement essay. You deserve it. Got it. So what? And what? What is it? So it's clear what it is. 'Baby' What's she like? Which of these two is hustling, ' working hard' on the side? This nation is not tete-a-tete in blood. I'm sorry for being direct. Adultery as a sneeze, as a cough in insignificance - ' be healthy'. Eva starts 'slowly' digging into things, sniffing smells, peeking into a narrowed phone... Sleeping with someone? Definitely asleep. But who? And as they say, it went...
'Show ' - The picture is amazing. Harmonious, balanced, original focus is a pair or duet under the all-seeing eye of the camera. A little later - we deal with aggravation ' in trio'. But it’s not the end, why not be a #39 musical quartet after all? Walk like that! Henri, after all, is a conductor... And the music came out! And the music came! It's a completely wild game!
The pompous faces are stripped of the tape. Actors are not rubbed face to the holes of hundreds of incarnations. This only benefited the work as a whole. Masters of their craft, here in the score. Second plan? They are the main violins complement, support. Professionally, clearly, smoothly, the whole concert. From the beginning to the end.
Pleasant viewing causing a smile and understanding of obvious things in the world. How so? Why is that? How long is this? Always probably ...
And the final is five points plus! Unexpected, bitter, unpredictable. The Institute of Marriage under fire of the statement. That's how we live. That's what we live with. .
