Bonheur, Le

A thing non-French users may not know:at the time,the male star,Jean-Claude Drouot was the brats' hero,Thierry la Fronde ,a miniseries where he portrayed a young French noble fighting against the "villains" (eg: the English) during the Hundred Years war.

Casting the whole Drouot family (husband,wife,and children who all keep their first names in real life) was a risqué move for the sixties;And involving daddy in adultery was not particularly what they call "playing safe" ;and proving that the pursuit of happiness is legitimate and normal,even if they 've got someone's blood on their hands,it takes the biscuit..

Pastel colors and the delightful cinematography display Varda's husband,Jacques Demy 's influence;the first part shows everyday life in a way both realistic and poetic.

But ,sincerely,frank,I would not have expected that from feminist Varda.

导演用女性的复杂感觉，表现一般男女的平凡生活，以及隐藏在平凡生活中的不幸，是一部优美而凄凉的名片。贯穿其中的莫扎特音乐和如诗般优美的画面，带有厚重的雷诺阿式的印象主义味道。特别是导演采用随着四季景色变迁来映衬人物内心变化的象征手法很有代表性。
