Mood Indigo
A film by Michel Gondry
French with English subtitles Running time: 94 minutes Drafthouse
César Awards: Best Production Design
From Méliès to the Brothers Quay, cinema has produced a number of remarkable movie magicians directors who revel in the art of illusion, the use of in-camera trickery and sleight of sight; fabulists who unlock the fantastical possibilities of film. Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind; The Science of Sleep) is one of these magicians, and his latest offering provides ample evidence of his innovation and mastery of the low-fi, high-effect F/X. Adapting Boris Vian's novel, Froth on the Daydream, Gondry concocts a vivid, beguiling tale of love, idealism, invention, and loss. Starring Romain Duris (The Beat That My Heart Skipped) as rich, idiosyncratic gadabout Colin and Audrey Tatou (Amélie; Dirty Pretty Things) as Chloe, the one who sets Colin aglow, the film's romantic story full of all the whimsy, elation, anxiety, and tragedy that love entails perfectly matches Gondry's heightened-sensory approach to filmmaking. Visually stunning and endlessly surprising, Mood Indigo is a delirious and rewarding flight of fancy from a magician in top form.
