DVD Reviews of He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not

DVD Review: 3.5 stars out of 4
Summary: 5 Stars

The Bottom Line:

Aside from being an amazing and thought-provoking look at perspective and how cinema can distort it, He Loves He, He Loves Me Not is one of the most clever movies I've ever seen, with an ending that had me literally clapping and laughing in my living room.

DVD Review: Awesome movie!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one of my favorite movies! I love the twisted plot, the flow of the movie, the simplicity of the scenes that make the unusual situation.. even more unusual. There's nothing to take out or add; I can watch it twice in the same day!

DVD Review: The dark side of Amelie
Summary: 4 Stars

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

? la folie... pas du tout (2002) aka He Loves Me... He Loves Me Not was written/ directed by Laetitia Colombani and starred Audrey Tautou. It was made right after 'Amelie' and it looks like 'Amelie', especially in the opening scenes on the beautiful and colorful streets of Bordeaux that prepare a viewer for the light romantic story. Young and pretty Art student Angelique (Audrey Tautou) seems to have found her fabulous destiny and the love of her life in Laic, a cardiologist (Samuel Le Bihan) who seems to be as much in love with her as she is with him. But is he? And what about his wife who is pregnant with their first child? Step by step, the film takes an interesting turn and becomes a story rather dark and disturbing, told from different perspectives, Rashomon - style. What started as a light and sweet romantic comedy, very successfully turned into a well made thriller. The way the young writer/director presented and contrasted two points of view at the same events, is remarkable. We all know from Geometry classes that parallel lines never cross, at least in Euclid's Geometry they don't but sometimes when you look at the lines in space from certain POV, it looks like they cross - I kept thinking about it while watching He Loves Me... He Loves Me Not which I highly recommend. Audrey Tautou was wonderful - without giving too much out, I just say that she played a character that I found deeper, darker, and more interesting than Amelie, the dark side of Amelie.


DVD Review: LAETITIA COLOMBANI, OPUS 1
Summary: 4 Stars

***1/2 2002. Co-written and directed by Laetitia Colombani. How better talk about this film without giving away its plot than to describe it as a mix of Adrian Lyne's Fatal Attraction (Special Collector's Edition) and Akira Kurosawa's Rashomon - Criterion Collection. One can only regret that Samuel Le Bihan's performance is not as good as Audrey Tautou's. Too bad also that the director hasn't had the opportunity yet to give us another film.

DVD Review: ? la folie. . . pas du tout~
Summary: 5 Stars

I absolutely fell in love with this film upon an initial viewing. Since then, it has become a favorite of mine as well as a favorite of French students. They always insist on finishing the film. This is a nice break from all the dreck turned out by Hollywood today. The film possesses, as several have mentioned, a very Hitchcock aura and is sure to keep viewers interested. If you enjoy straightforward, bare-bones films, you will not enjoy this piece. It's truly French cinema at its best!

Description of He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not

When we first meet rising young artist Angelique (Tautou), she is in the glorious throes of true love, and the whole world has seemingly fallen under her spell. Her handsome lover Loic is madly in love with her, her paintings are winning wide acclaim, and a glorious future seems all but assured. But Angelique's blissful world may not be as enchanting as it first seems, and in a quick startling moment, her life - and our understanding of it -seems to unravel in front of our eyes. Starring Audrey Tautou (Amelie), Samuel Le Bihan (Three Colors: Red).
That adorable Audrey Tautou from Am?lie plays the central role in this deceptive story of a rather unusual romance. It would spoil the film's clever design to reveal what happens halfway through He Loves Me, He Loves Me Not, so let's just say that Tautou plays a winsome girl in the sunny town of Bordeaux, whose relationship with a married doctor has more layers than first it seems. Samuel LeBihan, from Brotherhood of the Wolf, plays the doctor, but it's the casting of cutie-pie Tautou that sets up the movie's gradually sinister undertow. Director Laetitia Colombani's inventive structure plays a satisfyingly tricky game with the audience, and may have some viewers going back to the beginning to make sure they saw what they thought they saw. Just don't go in expecting Am?lie part deux, and you should find this an ingenious little number. --Robert Horton
