Movie Reviews of Those Who Love Me Can Take the Train
Movie Review: An intimate portrait!
Summary: 5 Stars
A prominent ad charismatic artist dies and so, around his imminent funeral, friends and lovers of him will travel by train through the French countryside. The grief - that potent catalyst - will unite them in order to rediscover the almost forgotten emotional bonds that remain inside them, even if they quarrel or coincide one each other.
The journey by itself is a lovable metaphor that reaffirms the human condition and rejoin us with the life, to prove the art goes far beyond the mere aesthetic concept of the creative act.
One of these unforgettable movies that will endure in your memory, once you have left the hall.
Summary of Those Who Love Me Can Take the Train
Those who love me can take the train derives its enigmatic title from the response of the charismatic yet tyrannical painter jean-baptiste to protests that the journey from paris to the grand cemetery at limoges for his funeral will be too far. A great teacher jean-baptiste loved his students who adored him. Studio: Kino International Release Date: 12/05/2000 Starring: Jean Louis Trintignant Run time: 122 minutes Rating: Nr Director: Patrice ChereauPatrice Chereau, the acclaimed French director of opera and theater, follows his grand period drama Queen Margot with this gorgeous but jagged portrait of dysfunctional adults and broken relationships in contemporary Paris. A group of old acquaintances whose friendships have become strained over the years reunite for the funeral of their mentor. Chereau drops us in the midst of things from the opening moments, leaving us to sort out the layered editing and rich soundtrack while catching up with a story that keeps leaping forward. The widescreen film is shot with a handheld camera, and the jittery, nervous energy and abrupt editing wind up the already tense atmosphere. But even as Chereau eases up from the uncomfortably in-your-face intimacy of the claustrophobic opening scenes on the train, emotions ooze like open wounds and unresolved conflicts bubble over. Former French idol Jean-Louis Trintignant, who has aged into an awesomely understated performer and a fascinating screen presence, leads a cast of edgy young actors, including Queen Margot stars Vincent Perez (as a depressed transsexual) and Pascal Greggory (as the group's tentative spokesman). It's a sharp, intelligent, restless film that recalls such recent French dramas as Late August, Early September and My Sex Life (or How I Got into an Argument). It doesn't offer any clear story or easy resolution, just a messy but potent portrait of the crossed lives of adults still looking for themselves. --Sean Axmaker
