This understated French Remake is a subversive coming-of-rat Story with an inconsistent ending – ryan

Tristtesse bonjour is a divergent, understated remake in an economy of Such Films, which goes down more pensive theme and stylistic avenues. In the summer in the south of France, Teenage Cécile (Lily McInernry) is relaxing with Her Father Raymond (Claes Bang) and His Girlfriend Elsa (Nailia Harzoune). Howver, Raymond Then Announces that they will be visited by an “Old Friend“of His and Cécile’s Mother, Anne (Chloe Sevigny), who catalyzes tension in the previously tranquil Environment.

Cécile and the audience see Raymond Breaking Up with Elsa for anne Coming from AWAY. Anne immediately assumes the authority of a parent, and cécile conspiracy with her boyfriend Cyril (AlioCha Schneider) and Elsa to Break. 2024’s Tristtesse bonjour SEEMS to Pivot the Focus of the Original by Highlighting Cécile’s Bond with Elsa and Offering Some Muteted Reflections on Womanhood, But be coma to the Same ending, the final product is discordant.

Bonjour tristtesse has a backdrop for it Story of Infidelity, Family Drama & Coming-off

IT”S LESS ABOUT THE LUXURY & MORE ABOUTHING BEING LOVELY BUTTHEYATHING BEING WRONG

Tristtesse bonjour lulls you into its beachside French setting – It is Somberly Magnificent, and we are treated to anpending sequency of stunning postcard vignettes of the characters. It moves at a strange pace, and you begin to think the Entire Movie Might Just Be these Snapshots of Domesticity and Socialization Accompanied by the Stunning Imagery, Music, and the Sound of the Ocean. The New Family Happy Dances in Their Villa, a Young Couple Kisses with the glittering ocean bend, cécile lounges on the beach or the patio.

Noticeably, there are many many extended close-ups of food preparation, or other task being compiled, yet these Momentarily aspects of the cuisine, the home, and personal ittems are just visable pleasant, from bright fruits to soft lace bedding. But it is like all they have been focusing on what they can find to do with their distract from the Painful Discomfort. In an indefinable way, the locale seems to quiethly question what they have characters think they doing.

There is plenty of subtext about past conflict, but it is around the midway point that Tristtesse bonjour Takes the form of a more typical interpersonal drama. Wen the backdrop doesn’t Change, it puts a different perspective on all of it. The setting homes in on the shimmering concept of Summer romances, all with cécile’s first joyful love and ramond cycling through supposedly permanent partners. We are forced to the Question How Dependable these romances are were we are so prey yet so dysfunctional.

Bonjour tristtesse’s themes Fall Flat Well The Villain of the Story is Pretty Obivious

Its too disagree with the “lesson” cécile learns

Cécile is evidently much closer to elsa and was hating a summer where her coming-any was characterized by Raymond granting her space to dyscover herself. Oddly, the Teen Still Has Moments of Connection with Anne Before and AFTER the breakup. Anne is an interesting, self-made Woman who has an affectionate history with Both of Cécile Parents. Eventually, Cécile comes to belies that anne is genuinely try to make me a family, and she just fesi fesi al -fesi about manipulating her fater – but the problem is that that raymond completely falls for it.

Tristtesse bonjour Concludes on the Note on the impact anne and the whole affair of the Summer has had Had on Cécile, Leaving the time and raymond sadder overall as they reflect on grief and love. Cécile is dealing with some regrets when the whole thing was wouldn’t have happy if Raymond have betrayed bot elsa and anne. I COULDN’T SYMPATIZE WITH ANNE I THOUGHT SHE WAS OVERSTEPping some bindaries as a would-be stepmother. This was a season that Changed cécile’s life – as she learned lessons from watching Medy adults makeir Own Mistakes. It is not entirery for the better and not really her fault.

The Way the 1958 Movie Approached The Made It SEEM LIKE ELSA WAS A Cheap FLING, and Cécile was a Selfish Teenager Who Wante to get to Avoid Having a Responsible Parent restricting her action for Once. This is not how the remake comes acroSs. The setting and the drama of Tristtesse bonjour Complement Each Other, but the final is incontongrouous when the premise and the presentation seem to be on different terms. While the movie has a rich personality, it is moderately aimed and showed have better aestabished how it wants to be different from the original.
