"Childhood": six filmmakers staged The film "Childhood" was released this week in theaters. Attention here is a low-budget production that will disappear from the screen like a shooting star. The cinema lovers do not miss: the film is composed of six short films, each depicting an event in the six major childhood directors.
Fritz Lang, Jacques Tati, Jean Renoir, Ingmar Bergman, Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Welles are the young heroes! The concept is devilishly ambitious, very pleasing result overall. Assuming an event child determines the future artistic choices, the film has a real educational purpose.
Without falling into the plagiarism, the short films are of course many references to the style of each filmmaker. The two most successful evocations remain one of Tati, never in his place (!), And Hitchcock, whose rigorous education is pale with fear. Other stories, more anecdotal, appear as tributes to filmmakers cared. A special children's games especially talented.
I encourage you to visit and enjoy this little movie is worth seeing! Cinema in all its diversity!
