Captivating biopic directed by French director, novelist, comics artist Joann Sfar.
If Gainsbourg was a river that ran deep in your world, if he was part of your cultural fabric, you will fall in love with the film, grateful that he has been recreated—beautifully—, that you can spend two hours in his company again, trying to puzzle out what happened to him. I loved witnessing once again the remarkable eloquence of this man of letters, his musical and poetic genius, his cutting wit, cheekiness, poker face, understated singing style, the subversiveness that was present from the outset, his vulnerability, his antics, drunken debauchery, quiet rage, the ears, the hooter, the string of alluring and high-profile women...
Each episode blends into the next seamlessly - a rare feat in a biopic.
I loved witnessing the love with which one artist, Sfar, paid homage to another.
A feast.
