The Golden Age

I have seen this wonderful film twice, once at the DTLA film festival in Los Angeles, and the other at its UK premiere. Both times I was swept away by the beauty of France in the 1960s, the costumes, the locations and of course the characters. I loved the interaction between the two protagonists and their pursuit of their dreams, and I left the cinema feeling very inspired and uplifted. Jenna Suru is a very gifted director and I look forward to seeing more of her films.

A lot of work for writer, director, producer and actress Jenna Suru! She is able to strongly share all the passion that went into this project with the spectators. I am curious to see what she will do next!

There is something wonderfully laidback about Jenna Suru's love letter to Saint-Tropez, harking back to a simpler time which may or may not be shrouded by nostalgia. In many ways, France of the 1960s is the film's star and love interest, as explored by protagonists Sebastien and Angèle, which both draws (and occasionally divides) their relationship and search for artistic inspiration.

Both Paris and Saint-Tropez provide the perfect 1967 setting: a time when the French Rivera was synonymous with Hollywood glamour and Paris provided the backdrop for countless French and international films. But this never feels exaggerated or overly glamourised and, as with any good cinematic story, the focus lies primarily on its lead characters and their ensuing drama. It is here where the film gets its charm, as we follow Angèle's and Sebastian's journey in their pursuit of their dream theatrical project. Their chemistry growing throughout the film, complimented by its effortless dialogue, always feels fresh and never forced.

As a film, L'Age d'Or is refreshingly competent in its execution without being overly dramatic or succumbing to cliché. As with any pleasant trip, it's an easy-going journey with few distractions outside of its beautiful scenery. After all, who wouldn't want to escape to Saint-Tropez for an hour or two?

From the moment that the film started I was in awe, gorgeously shot with scenes of the French Riviera I felt like I was transported back to the 1960s!

Amazing attention to detail including the use of old signage and incredible costumes and locations and a story of discovery at its heart, 'L'Age D'or' is a film that I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for heartwarming nostalgia! Bravo
