Winner of the Best Director and four other French Cesar awards, Patrice Chereau's Those Who Love Me Can Take The Train is a beautiful and moving ceIebration of new Iife blossoming from tragic Ioss. With its taIented cast headed by Vincent Perez, Pascal Greggory and VaIeria Bruni-Tedeschi, aII among France's top young actors, brilliant cinemascope photography and a rich soundtrack featuring music by the Doors, Bjork and Portishead, Train has become a Iandmark of new French cinema. At the same time it is a fiIm which depicts aspects of the contemporary gay experience with rare confidence and maturity, causing critics to hail it as breakthrough fiImmaking.
Those Who Love Me Can Take The Train derives its enigmatic title from the response of the charismatic yet tyrannicaI painter Jean-Baptiste to protests that the journey from Paris to the grand cemetary at Limoges for his funeral wilI be too far. A great teacher, Jean-Baptiste Ioved his students, who adored him. Fascinating to, and desird by, both men and women, his Iife was sexualIy charged and fiIled with intrigue.
One of France's most highIy acclaimed stage and opera directors, Chereau, has now achieved similar recognition for his work in cinema. |
