Review of The French Dispatch (2021) by Dubeau — 20 Dec 2021

I don't think this is the best WA movie, but it has it's own unique visuals and structure. The story is separate in trois morceaux and are very distinct. Which kinds of break le rythme, in a way. I like the visuals and even the dessins animées.

Obviously they are there for budget reasons. C'est la vie. What I found hard to deal with, was the intellectual level of the dialogues. Ils sont droles but not very easy to digest because they are very fast.

And that problem is even more pronounce in the french. Je parle francais, and I could only get partial understanding of the french sections. The music was only partiellement bonne. I must say I loved all the actors.

I give it, je donne au film 72%. I think the manifesto section for me, didn't do much. Quand meme un film interressant de WA and very typical of his art style.
