Product Description

The narcissistic and obsessive behaviour of three brothers underlines a constant sense of impending crisis as they each strive to preserve the tenuous threads that bind their fragile lives. Sexy French superstars Nicolas Cazalé and Stéphane Rideau ('Presque Rien') star in this epic portrait of simmering masculinity and its impact on a struggling family living in the shadow of the Alps.


Synopsis

A drama which centres on three brothers and how their actions impact on the whole family.

4.0 out of 5 stars Don't listen to Americans., 19 Feb 2006
By M (St Albans, England, UK) - See all my reviews
Reading the reviews of this film on Amazon.com, the imdb and various other american-dominated arenas, you will see it described as 'a crime against celluloid' and the oh-so-elegant phrase 'it sucked'.

Having seen the film I can't believe they're talking about the same one I saw, because this film is very good. A lyrical, sexy and moving portrayal of working class masculinity in the foothills of southern France. The film presents three sections each dominated by one brother. In the first, Marc is presented as a drug-dealing thug on a path of self-destruction. The second presents Chistophe getting his life back on track after being released from prison. The third deals with Olivier, who rejects the world of crime that seduced his brothers and embarks instead on a passionate love affair with one of Marc's friends.

Compared to Morel's impressive earlier film 'A toute vitesse', 'le Clan' is less plot based and more concerned with character development. It has clearly been made for people of above average intelligence.

In conclusion, don't pay attention to the negative reviews. See this film and judge for yourself.

4.0 out of 5 stars Courageous and beautiful, 16 Jul 2006
By Doctor Richard "Richard" (Newton,, MA, United States) - See all my reviews
I leap to the defense of this wonderful, satisfying film also known as "Three Dancing Slaves".
Three handsome, loving, and lovable young adult brothers protect each other following the death of their beloved mother. Perhaps because of their loss, their 'feminine' sides are emphasized as much as is their masculinity. Relationships with each other and with other males are sensual and innocent, and are free of guile. The small amount of violence in the tale is all the more affecting because of the sympathy one feels for the characters, all suffering from stages of advanced testosterone poisoning.
Only a slightly corny twist to the end of the story of one of the brothers makes this less than a perfect film. The film is beautifully shot. The brothers are brilliantly portrayed, and their stories are touchingly told. I imagine that any open minded and open-hearted person will love this film.

5.0 out of 5 stars rough diamond., 1 April 2008
By Mr. S. Murphy (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a wonderful movie and as much about our inability to deal with death as a young mans ability to tame the demon. It is simple but not simplistic and the character developments in the main are both believable and thought provoking. Although a sad tale one is left with hope. Beautifully acted and shot in the foothills of Southern France. The images of innocence and love are quite frankly breath taking and shown with grace and bravity.

Stupid film about unintelligent and untalented people. I am amazed that it has received a higher rating than one star, negative would be more telling.
