une bonne, mais obliee comédie francaise

[michael]

Hi, i just saw a french comedy that i liked. It is by the famous director
Marcel Carne.

Dr�le de drame ou L'�trange aventure du Docteur Molyneux (1937) is a satire
somewhere in between Arsenic and Old Lace(1944) and Ace in the Hole (1951).
It was of
course written and made before either. It starts out with a boring plant
specialist who leads a double life. He writes trashy crime novels under an
assumed name. Nobody knows this, least of all his cousin who is the bishop
of bedford, who holds long speeches about the danger of his novels in
particular.

One day the bishop visits his cousin, who moves out of his own house to
avoid him. Then the bishop suspects him of having poisoned his wife and made
a runner, and a long and complicated plot evolves in which the police, the
media and the lynch mobs are satirized. In the end the plant specialist
decides to kill off his old identity and assume a new one as writer of
trashy fiction, because the old one was so boring.

This is a french film set in london, and i thoroughly enjoyed it. A good
flick in a different genre than all the pessimistic, but poetic films that
Marcel Carne made during this period.

Effectivement, il semble que ce classique soit quelque peu oubli�
car ses diffusions sur le service public sont plut�t rares.
A noter un excellent cin�-club le mardi soir sur france 2.
On y passe m�me des films de Jean Delannoy, une des t�tes de
turc de la d�sormais inerte nouvelle vague, c'est dire si cette
�mission est hautement recommandable
Hier, "Gueule d'amour" de Jean Gr�millon avec Jean Gabin
et Mireille Balin.

Je re�ois tous mes tv via la t�l�vision IP. Je pourrais acheter une antenne
parabolique, mais il est trop cher pour moi en ce moment. Mais il est bon de
savoir ces choses.
