Customer Reviews of La Buche
Charming I love European films. They have a different quality than that of the American ones. La Busch had that quality. It has no action, or sex, and that was just fine with me. It had wit, humor, wonderful music, and an interesting plot, with surprising twists. I will deffintely watch it again.
Un autre bijou de la France
When I first saw this movie on Italian TV [Pranzo di Natale], I had just returned from a 5-hour gig and needed that relaxing moment before sleep. Being a fan of Emmanuelle Béart, I literally ate the screen at her yet again stunning interpretation. French movies have one special feature: they are all artistically oriented. The French public is not easily impressed, and trashes US blockbusters as being the product of computer geniuses who cover flat acting.
Danièle Thompson gives the whole plot that bittersweet feel characteristic of reality - that acidic feeling in your stomach when something seems to go right but you still are not satisfied for some obscure reason. No sex. No action. The complexity of this familiar situation is not spoiled by useless scenes aimed at attracting audience. Every minute builds upon the previous, every event adds some element to the plot... which though complex, can be summarized as "finding the best compromise between love and life".
Personally I enjoy best the original dub (in French). If you are not fluent in French, the subtitles are not at all tiring and have no negative impact on the movie. I also saw it dubbed in Italian and was quite satisfied too, though I am sure English can never emit those nuances characteristic to romantic languages. Language-wise, the ending song is in a pleasant German dialect [not Russian :)] and is very "Tzigane" (gypsy), though the late mother's lover mimes the violin-virtuoso pathetically. The DVD has come out over 4 years after its release in France, and I shall be doing my best to have this film projected at the Alliance Francaise in the near future.
Excellent, engaging, French movie.
This is a very engaging, interesting movie. If you like your movies with a European touch then you will like La Buche. Emmanuelle Beart and Charlotte Gainsbourg are perfect as always. Worth watching if you appreciate a good European movie. If you understand French it is excellent!
