Xavier Giannoli – Quand j’étais chanteur AKA The Singer (2006)
Gérard Depardieu has at last returned to his true form in THE SINGER, which was a huge hit in France. Xavier Giannoli has created a genuinely touching love story which displays humour and a sense of compassion for its characters.
Depardieu plays the part of Alain Moreau, a nightclub crooner in Clermont-Ferrand described by one critic as: “much lower in the food chain than Charles Aznavour, but cut from the same cloth.”
One night, Alain sees young, beautiful blonde, Marion (Cécile de France) in the audience and decides to engineer a meeting through one of his friends, Estate Agent, Bruno (Mathieu Amalric). Estate Agent Marion a single mother with an unhappy story, is cautious and untrusting, but before too long, a tentative relationship begins to develop. However, Bruno soon becomes a rival for Marion’s affections…
The on-screen chemistry between Dépardieu and de France is remarkable and the film is further enhanced by emotionally fluid performances by all the actors and and some clever plot twists. Whilst Alexandre Desplat’s excellent score gives an added depth to the proceedings. (Artificial Eye)
