Life Expectancy Severe Copd

I killed my mother (2009)

Xavier Dolan is the most exciting thing that ever happened to the movies in years. The story of this young director, who at 22 has already been praised by friends and strangers at festivals from the likes of Cannes, it is not uncommon and we immediately refer to those tormented artists like Rimbaud dazzled the world with his precocious talent and the absolute exercise of creative freedom that allows youth.

The most amazing is that, unlike French poet maudit, Dolan decided to express themselves through art is probably more expensive to generate, with a great effort getting the money to shoot ma mère J'ai tue , a script he wrote when he was 16 years old and became its first foray into film.

Eight minutes of cheering and three awards at the Cannes Film Festival was what got this story, which chronicles the tumultuous relationship that maintains a gay teenager with her mother and constant evolution from the deepest love and hate most immunity.

Dolan, as a good young filmmaker, try to give your audience something new visual and narrative, a situation that leads him to use a visual discourse is obsessed with the creation of plans to put aside the ordinary, constantly playing with the symmetry and proportions of the screen and print out a visual freshness absent in contemporary classical cinema.

All that careful visual preciousness that is displayed to the last detail of the scenarios, complemented with performances by Anne Dorval, as the selfless mother who tries to understand their increasingly distant son and himself Xavier Dolan, who takes over the role of a staff so we can immediately assume a strong motivating autobiographical history.

The harrowing scenes that build to end the conflict in mother / child slip through endless streams of insults and wonderfully poetic dialogue, curiously reaches its climax right in the middle of the film, with a treasure as plane one of my favorites of the year.

Remarkable is the beautiful and minimalist music by Nicholas Savard-L'Herbier, which raises the intensity of the film beautifully, until it finally explodes with songs Crystal Castles and Vive la Fête Dolan gave to acclimate sequences most frenetic of the film.

I watch ma mère J'ai tue with a heavy heart, remembering my mother and with an incredible desire to film whatever it was with a camera. Frankly I doubt you can ask more than that to tape.
