L'Enfance-nue | DVD | (22/09/2008)
from £N/A
| Saving you £N/A (N/A%)
| RRP One of the earth-shaking feature debuts in the history of cinema Maurice Pialat's L'Enfance-nue (Naked-Childhood) provides a perspective on growing-up that rejects both sentimentality and modish cynicism. Its unflinching but also warmly accommodating outlook on childhood attracted Fran''ois Truffaut to take on the role as co-producer of Pialat's film - which ironically exists as much as a response to Truffaut's own debut The 400 Blows as that film was to the 'cinema of childhood' that came before the New Wave. First-time actor Michel Tarrazon plays the young Fran''ois a provincial orphan whose destructive behaviour precipitates his relocation from the home of a long-term foster family to the care of a benevolent elderly couple. In the course of this transition Pialat's film presents the turbulence of Fran''ois's unmoored existence and his explosive reactions to the contradictory emotions it engenders. This is the naked portrait of a soul's - and an entire society's - dysfunction before the moment of reconciliation. L'Enfance-nue represents the ideal introduction to the films of Maurice Pialat - an artist whose work resides alongside that of Jean Eustache and Philippe Garrel at the summit of the post-New Wave French cinema. One discovers in his pictures a raw and complicated emotional core which as in the films of John Cassavetes reveals upon closer examination a remarkably rigorous visual aesthetic and a facility of direction which lifts both seasoned actors and debutante amateurs to the level of greatness. Coupled here with Pialat's poetic and brilliant early short L'Amour existe (Love Exists 1960) L'Enfance-nue is the first masterpiece of an artist whose work has had an incalculable influence on contemporary directors as diverse as Bruno Dumont Olivier Assayas Michael Haneke and the Dardenne brothers among others - and whose 2003 passing led Gilles Jacob president of the Festival de Cannes to declare: Pialat is dead and we are all orphaned. French cinema is orphaned.
