En esta sátira, los contratos sociales y las viejas formas de entretenimiento se rompen. Quentin Dupieux reúne a un brillante elenco en una ruidpsa deconstrucción de los egos de los actores y las expectativas del público, y se deleita con las percepciones de un extraño en su última meta-provocación.
Quentin Dupieux’s deadpan comedy on the narcissistic nature of filmmaking is luridly obsessed with objects, from suede jackets to mirrors and cameras. Sharing an easy chemistry on screen, Jean Dujardin and Adèle Haenel lend charm and poignancy to this profoundly funny, fantastical fable.
Descending into a bizarro world of electric genitals and elastic time, French jokester Quentin Dupieux devises newfangled, side-splitting methods for well-off egotists to keep up appearances. Suspend disbelief: this wild-eyed pursuit of eternal youth and virility is absurdly funny—and incisive too.
