Cannes 2012 - The Secret, le nouveau film de Pascal Laugier

Le Marché du Film du Festival de Cannes 2012 proposait la projection de The Secret, le nouveau film de Pascal Laugier après le choc Martyrs.

Il y a bientôt quatre ans déjà, Pascal Laugier livrait Martyrs, le film choc qui n’a laissé personne indifférent et faisait dudit monsieur un de ces français prêts à remuer le cocotier pour faire réagir les spectateurs avec son histoire jusqu’au boutiste. Voilà qu’il livre son Tall Man, sur lequel il a bossé un bout de temps, rebaptisé bêtement en France The Secret. Difficile de parler de l’histoire sans trop en déflorer les surprises, mais on peut dire que The Secret prend place dans un petit village où des enfants disparaissent mystérieusement. Certains disent qu’ils ont été enlevés par un homme encapuchonné nommé The Tall Man. Mais qu’en est-il réellement ?

Voilà c’est tout ce qu’on peut dire sur l’histoire du film, à savoir son début, avant que celle-ci ne s’avère plutôt intelligente et maline, confirmant les espoirs placés en Pascal Laugier. Car ce qui s’apparentait au début à un banal film d’horreur va rapidement prendre une autre tournure, assez bien pensée et amenée, questionnant les inégalités sociales dans notre société moderne et l’incapacité qu’a celle-ci à y remédier véritablement. Pascal Laugier utilise donc la forme du thriller horrifique pour distiller un suspense au premier abord basique découlant sur une thématique intéressante et ambitieuse, qui montre que le metteur en scène et scénariste qu’il est n’est pas là pour livrer un bête produit industriel formaté. Plutôt que de donner dans des scènes trash que les fans de Martyrs auraient pu attendre, il préfère prendre ici un autre chemin pour mieux se renouveler dans la continuité sur le thème du projet organisé à grande ampleur. Avec The Secret, Pascal Laugier s’amuse habilement à troubler nos certitudes en ne définissant ni le bien ni le mal, laissant au spectateur le soin de définir ses propres réponses. Le film prend donc les atours d’un thriller intelligent et efficace qui profite de l’implication totale de Jessica Biel, également productrice sur le projet, tandis que du côté de la mise en scène, Pascal Laugier confirme ses prédispositions en livrant un produit plutôt léché, agréable à l’œil.

Après le choc Martyrs, Pascal Laugier livre avec The Secret un thriller efficace au scénario plutôt intelligent dans lequel on trouve une Jessica Biel convaincante.

just because we are on pace to turn oceans into hot, acidic dead zones does not mean that we necessarily will. Corals are only damned if civilization fails to stem the CO2 tide, and while Bradbury considers failure a fait accompli, not everyone agrees. “If we can get a handle on greenhouse gas emissions, corals have a chance,” says Bruno, who, it is worth noting, has been described as a http://www.beatsbydreaustraliahq.com/ pathological optimist. “I don’t think all reefs will die as soon as we cross, say, 400 ppm. I think we have some wiggle room.”But Bruno’s if is a huge one, and ultimately, whether you think corals are “doomed” comes down to whether you believe society can completely transforming itself in the proximate future.

Despite pouring billions of dollars into education, the ruling African National Congress (ANC) has little to show for its money except for public primary schools regarded as among the worst in the world and millions of students destined for a life in the underclass."If you don't have an education, you don't have a chance in life," said Netshiozwe, who is unemployed with little prospect of finding regular work. She and her HIV-infected aunt live together and scrape by http://www.beatsbydrestudioca.com/ on about $100 a month in welfare benefits.Nearly half of South Africa's 18 to 24 year olds -- the first generation educated after apartheid ended in 1994 -- are not in the education system and do not have a job, according to government data.

still life, said Brandon Ruud, curator of Sheldon's transnational American art."The landscape vanished," Ruud said. "This discovery is extremely important to art historians' understanding of Kuhn's output as an artist and understanding modern art in the mid-20th century."Kuhn, who lived from 1877 to 1947, was an organizer http://www.beatsbydreaustraliastyle.com of the landmark Armory Show in New York City. The controversial 1913 exhibition introduced Americans to modern art, particularly the work of European painters Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Paul Cezanne and Marcel Duchamp.A quarter of a century later, Kuhn may have been thinking of his legacy when he created "Apples in Wooden Boat," Ruud said.
