Bêtes blondes (2018)

Bêtes blondes: Directed by Maxime Matray, Alexia Walther. With Thomas Scimeca, Basile Meilleurat, Agathe Bonitzer, Youssef Hajdi. Fabien always looks lost, and even a little perched, when he wakes up. Ephemeral star of a sitcom of the 90s, he regularly loses the ball and memory since the disappearance of Corinne, his partner on the screen he loved so much. For Fabien, it’s time to go back in time.

“This is a surreal, bizarre tale about u0026quot;Fabienu0026quot; a slightly narcoleptic, alcoholic has-been daytime television actor, who has been in a motor bike accident that killed his beloved u0026quot;Corinneu0026quot; and who is now prone to memory lapses. In parallel, u0026quot;Yoniu0026quot; is dealing with grief from the death of his boyfriend and the two of them meet and have a serious of what I can best describe as oddball experiences; some real and some in his head. There is a fair bit of flashback and it can be be quite hard to follow – but is a quite a curious tragic-horror-comedy.”
