Movie Reviews of Un Air De Famille
Movie Review: A comedy?
Summary: 5 Stars
Hmmm... I'm beginning to wonder whether or not the "dysfunctional family get-together" film should become a new genre. Hey, who can't identify with a group of close relatives screaming at and insulting each other? That remark aside, this is one of my favorite films - it is extremely funny. However, upon recommending it to a friend, who did then see it, she replied, "You thought this was funny?" Ok, so I saw it again. Now, having done so, I must agree that the movie has a very painful side to it -- not that it causes the viewer pain, but that it becomes evident that the characters are much closer to being truly unhappy than anything else -- from a failed marriage in which the husband is totally ignorant of his (miserable) wife's crumbling emotional state, to the family's black sheep who is made to wallow in his own failure, to a paralyzed dog that lies pathetically in the same place throughout the whole film...my God! How depressing! Anyway, compared to similar American films, this movie (in the very French fashion) does not satisfy itself with merely presenting humorous odd-couple-esque situations; it goes deeper to the very real suffering behind what makes us, the objective viewers, laugh (NB: we laugh, because we relate, right?). This is an excellent film. Please see it...and think about it - don't just laugh...
