Le matelot volant

In Halifax harbour, a colision between two ships. One of victims of explosion - a sailor jump, for two kilometers, pushed by blast. The skin of film - the life flashbacks, from childhood to the life in Marine, conflict against a mate, a game . And , again. Techical, more than interesting. But the end is so brutal than a sort of dessapointment becomes fair.

First , because it has an obscure purpose . To remind the explosion ? Maybe is it enough. To suggest an experience, eccentric , special, strange and a miraculous survive ? It just well works in this sense. Or, maybe, to offer one of stories so loved by inner child inside us . For this, just applauses.

In short, an Oscar nominated.

The only problem for me - the impecable survive, in his mouth, of...cigarette.
