widthWhen you hear someone say that so-and-so movies can only be made in the French film industry, it often means some incredibly complex urban comedies, the content is intellectual dinners and extramarital affairs. This usually does not mean a terrible story. A middle-aged man collapsed in his middle age, leading to a mental obsession with his new deerskin jacket. He thought it was talking to him, basically encouraging him to kill. But this is the case with this totally bizarre, uncompromising stupidity and intense French horror comedy by the filmmaker Quentin Dupieux. Quentin Dupieux is a The DJ, known as Mr. Oizo, achieved great success with Flat Beat in 1999. He also created a grotesque film about inanimate objects acquiring strange meanings: Rubber, since 2010, Is about a rubber tire that resurrects and (inevitably) kills people.
However, without its leadership, Buckskin is nothing: the strange and poignant figure of Jean Dujardin, who relied on Michel Hazanavicius (Michel Hazanavicius) 10 years ago. Become a world-class player by winning an Oscar Silent film tribute to the artist: He also showed his performance in comedy Spy Spoof OSS 117 MovieSince then, perhaps because of his indifference to mastering English, Dujardin has become a non-exported French star, but in deerskin he has acquired a strange complexity and maturity. He played George, a ridiculous guy who somehow was as innocent as a child, despite being a particularly annoying child, who knew nothing about what happened to him. After apparently parting ways with his wife, he drove to a remote area in France and bought a buckskin jacket from a person who advertised on the Internet. Although apparently too small and short for him, this fringed jacket definitely pleases Georges, and he is also excited about the “bonus” invested by its original owner: a digital video camera.
Once staying in a local hotel, George became friends with Dennis (Adele Hanel) who was working behind the bar, and found out that she was an amateur film editor, persuaded her to help edit the movie he decided to make. Let her live with the money he can save, without knowing what the filmmaker does. But he had a concept: he was convinced by his belief that his beloved deerskin jacket was absolutely superior, and the related belief that no one in the world should be allowed to wear any type of jacket, so he began to shoot a documentary that people threw Dropped their jackets, and then he killed them.
All this is very weird, weird and bizarre, and if you change the actor, it may be unbearable. To be honest, this is almost unbearable. But Dujardin—his wide open, handsome face, a little weathered with time and very old beard—sold it. He has something charming, sad, scary and funny, and at the same time, because he pretends to be a big movie director in front of Dennis, every sentence reveals that he is actually a sociopath and a liar. And Haenel is also very good, playing directly.
Soon, Georges will get a deerskin hat and a pair of smooth deerskin pants: a complete set of deerskin clothing to be worn on the scene like Hannibal Lecter wearing the victim’s skin. In fact, the film itself has a faded beige hue and a deerskin look. Given that his murder was amateurish and more or less hidden, where are all these police or media? They have nowhere to go. Their absence is part of the indifferent effect of the film. The richness and singularity of this comedy is partly due to Dujardin’s frowning serious and arrogant face.
