Product Description

Product Description

Notorious gay porn star Francois Sagat stars as Emmanuel, one half of a cute gay couple who between the suburbs of Paris and the skyscrapers of New York, go to extraordinary lengths to prove that they're not in love with one another. A striking meditation on the male form, appearing as much a celebration of porn actor François Sagat's sculpted body as it is a tense examination of love and desire, celebrated director Christophe Honoré (Love Songs, Dans Paris, Close to Leo) welcomes you to an exploration of desire and longing; a touching ode to bittersweet goodbyes.

This allegedly tells the story of Emmanuel (Francois Sagat) and Omar (Omar Ben Sellem) who between Gennevilliers and New York, Omar and Emmanuel go to great lengths to prove to each other they're no longer in love. That is what the synopsis says, and this is what actually `happens'. Emmanuel says goodbye to his boyfriend, the aforementioned Omar (who has the most ridiculous moustache - looks like copulating caterpillars). He decides to have some non consensual tradesman's entrance fornication (that might get past the sensors!) The moustachioed one then goes off to New York for some low rent film festival type thing - which could be a metaphor.

Then Emmanuel does a sexy dance whilst dusting the front room and then goes to see some old American guy who is a total git and takes all his clothes off to do some posing in the doorway. The `action' flits between the two locations and using hand held camcorder as well as some English interspersed with the French. There are gratuitous arse shots, some `old chap' full frontals and lots of awkwardly stuck on music. The music is a distraction and often cuts out for no discernable reason. I kept thinking Derek Jarman would be moistening his seat watching this.

At one point Emmanuel says `I'm not comfortable around actors', well no sheeit Sherlock, as this entire production seems devoid of any including even enthusiastic am dram types. Then Omar returns sporting the worst jumper this side of a charity shop and they sort of do some more getting it on, with some more arse shots. Then there is some bum shaving, well high cinema indeed. Sorry I watched this with my b/f and he thought it total tosh, even more than me and he's Belgian!

This film is better than others are saying here, I think! It is, at the very least, very sexy, and works as a kind of riff on gay male desire a bit like the Paul Morrissey films with Joe Dallesandro. The juxtaposition with the New York sequences, in which Chiara Mastroianni is seen promoting Honore's previous film, is very effective, as she and Francois Sagat - a famous porn star - both have real beauty but form a wonderful contrast, both physically and in terms of their acting. The lover is also very good, and embarks on his own sexual adventure stateside, which is highly erotic too. There are quite a lot of humorous moments, sometimes blended with the erotic. Some of it is really quite dirty, but it never loses a sense of style. As always with Honoré, there is an elegance in the images and the way it is filmed. It feels like quite a personal statement which he could only really make with a lead actor who was prepared to do those scenes, to be physically what the film required. It is as if Honoré has taken cuttings from different places and put them together to make a one-off film, and indeed not to do so would have been a great pity! The blurring of 'proper' cinema and porn is quite daring and surely makes an important point, and the free-floating feel of the end result has a lot of charm, plus there's some amazing wallpaper in Sagat's flat! Above all, Chiara Mastroianni's grace really comes across uniquely, set against the beefier appeal of Sagat himself. The film itself cannot really be pushed above 4 stars, however I would add a star for the sheer sexiness, and for being so frank about it.

Bought this DVD against poor reviews as I have other Honore films in my collection and I have t agree with other reviewers that this is not the greatest attempt at film making.
I should also say that despite him shedding clothes frequently I didnt like what I saw when he did, so unlike watching an Ashton Kutcher film that may be substandard at least there I love watching him which makes up for disappointment in the story itself.
Here I felt him to be an unsympathetic and rather selfish character, that word used loosely, with nothing sufficiently interesting happening to justify my time.
Having said that I normally love Christophe Honore films, and French films in general, and films like Ma Mere and Dans Paris and Love Songs are wonderful. So I forgive, forget, and look forward to something better next time, hopefully with the fearless Louis Garrel in the lead.

I found the main character unsympathetic and there was little real structure or storytelling in the various things that happened. Disappointing.

This tale weave like a night dream that fell into a nightmare. The digital film work from I phone to hand held camera tell the story of a young French man that have dreams of becoming something more than a easy lay....
