Blanche

I assume that it did not take a long time to find a suicide victim who was tough enough to direct such a despicable film. The screenwriter was probably tasked with writing a screenplay where absolutely everything happens, and with a large dose of hallucinogens in his blood, he more or less succeeded, resulting in a strange, unbelievably stupid film where characters from Dumas' novels, drug dealers, and pseudo-heroes with various sexual perversions appear side by side. The dialogues are incredibly stupid, and I'm surprised the actors didn't get red in the face during them. The actors are the only interesting thing that Blanche has, but Jean Rochefort was probably so old that senility was starting to affect him, or he foolishly lost his lifelong savings and couldn't make ends meet with his pension... Gérard Depardieu probably needed to pay for one of his stays in rehab or weight loss, so their presence serves as a cover for this embarrassment, which is a waste of time even for lovers of the cheapest forms of entertainment... Overall impression: 5%. (26.09.2008)
