Esta sátira hilariante quebra contratos sociais e altera as formas banais de entretenimento. Reunindo um elenco brilhante numa desconstrução escandalosa dos egos dos atores e das expectativas do público, Quentin Dupieux se diverte com as percepções de um estranho em sua mais recente metaprovocação.

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.

Gleefully toying with the conventions of the police procedural film, Quentin Dupieux’s absurdist cat-and-mouse chase not only breaks the fourth wall, it turns the whole genre on its head! Full of surreal, meta-textual tricks, this Buñuel-esque gem is a breathless ride that delights in manic chaos.

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.
