Angela and Tony is the first feature film by Alix Delaporte . This romance is like a thousand others is also the first film producer, main actors and a good part of the team. For this single reason, it deserves a visit. We sometimes forget the time and energy that cost a movie, so imagine a bunch of novices have combined their desires to achieve this tragedy requires a certain respect.
From the first scene, we learn that Angela (Clotilde Hesme ) uses his ass to achieve his ends, to know how to get a toy. This toy is for her son that she has not seen for two years. It is also the way the director told us that this is a woman mechanical, instinctive and immature too. And when she answered an ad from a fisherman seeking love, is the momentum that is instinctual. Getting married to get her son back, not only. Be in the action too, the emergency room. Tony (Greg Gadebois ), the fisherman, who lives with his mother and spends his time between turbot, sole and flounder is a good man, straight and lonely. More measured Angela, it's going to tame before surrendering her.
The camera of Alix Delaporte sticks closer to Clotilde Hesme , long stem wind, face stiff and nervous. Cast members are also carried by all this pain expression. France, a country where no one laughed more. This excess of serious beating down a little film whose photograph was largely bright, burning through boat trips between grimpettes and cyclists. Constant movement to avoid falling. In parallel, a social drama is tied, fishermen set fire to bigots and dump their scales front of the prefecture. A simple scene described the violence of trade, CRS air puppet buffeted by circumstances. CRS are bad actors.
However, it was hard to follow about the director. Is it other than to tell a story of impossible love (between Laurel and Hardy in the words of one of the actors) made feasible by the patience and compassion, brought about largely by the desire of a man who wants to believe that one can love him unreservedly, and it is wrong of course but everyone cares as long as it satisfies them. Apart from this exercise apprehension of brutality in love, Angela and Tony described the lack, absence, the social struggle of a people, orphan of a charismatic leader, a lot of things that fall into the background of a postcard Marine with romantic accents. Worn by players inspired and honest which stands Gregory Gadebois flawless from start to finish, the film fishing by his description of the characters a little too linear. Because of its lack of ambition and formal screenplay, it reaches its limit ... The tell a story without real issue.
