Much has discussed the inclusion of animated films in the awards for best film of the year, due to increasingly evident increase in quality and the fact that dedicated to delve increasingly less trivial issues, developing Despite stories of child guidance could result from an extraordinary depth. After seeing L'illusionniste, me entirely clear that the cause that has been imposed for animated films, not to compete for major awards, must be eliminated and going even further, I dare say that this film is comparable to the best movies of the year and exceeded both in quality and content to its direct competitor in the category of animation, Toy Story 3 .
Directed by Sylvian Chomet, the guru of 2D animation which premiered in 2003 the wonderful Triplets of Belleville , L'illusionniste is an extraordinary work of art that takes the 2D levels, in my limited experience I had ever seen, showing an amazing level of detail and exquisite subtlety that makes it impossible to not love each sequences.
The film is based on a script by the celebrated French director Jacques Tati wrote in 1956, as a sort of apology to her eldest daughters she abandoned when he was just a baby. That is why the story, which depicts the relationship between a magician's image modeling and a young Scottish Tati which receives as his own daughter, is full of striking drama subsidiary.
To make matters worse, the script as well as playing with the complexity of family relationships introduces a huge number of people linked to traditional entertainment such as clowns, ventriloquists, acrobats, etc., Whose records are resolved in the background but masterfully, making it a fantastic reflection on the loss of the sense of wonder by the technology and cultural progress, which turns out to be quite bleak.
keeping with the aesthetics of the films of Tati, L'illusionniste leaves the narrative style of classic animation in el que la cámara se mueve frenéticamente detrás de los personajes, para posicionar la toma directamente a la altura del ojo del espectador y utilizando siempre tomas abiertas con un tremendo número de capas de acción, lo que genera un efecto absolutamente impactante en donde, independientemente del primer plano, hay una asombrosa cantidad de cosas sucediendo a la vez.
La banda sonora de la cinta, que corre a cargo del músico Malcolm Ross, le hace honor a la década de los cincuentas, en la que supuestamente está ambientada la película, creando una serie de piezas que van de lo más alegre a lo más trágico en perfecta armonía.
L'illusionniste definitely not a film aimed at kids, probably bored by the slow pace involved in history and the almost total absence of dialogue, but the amazing ability to develop Chomet endless stories represented and successfully cover all the topics presented in the film, is memorable and worthy of a series of survey that unfortunately did not get. If fate would find this movie on the billboard do not hesitate even a second because it is absolutely essential.
