THE BLUE ROOM (Le chamber bleue)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sundance Selects<\/strong><\/p>\n

Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten. Data-based on Rotten Tomatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 B+<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 Mathieu Amalric<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenplay:\u00a0 Mathieu Amalric, St\u00e9phanie Cl\u00e9au, novel by George Simenon<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cast:\u00a0 Mathieu Amalric, L\u00e9a Drucker St\u00e9phanie Cl\u00e9au, Laurent Poitrenaux, Serge Bozon, Blutch<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at:\u00a0 Review 2, NYC, 9\/18\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 October 3, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a recent episode on the Emmy-winning TV show \u201cThe Good Wife,\u201d the lawyer played by Josh Charles is shot dead in the courtroom by his own client.\u00a0 Americans like jury trials with such melodrama.\u00a0 But the French, or at least the audience prepared for engaging fare that challenges the mind as well as the heart, do not require shock and awe.\u00a0 In \u201cThe Blue Room,\u201d a major segment of the all-too-brief psychological thriller takes place in both a pre-trial chapter and the final courtroom arguments.\u00a0 Nobody gets shot, no jurors are around for attorneys to manipulate.\u00a0 A small panel of judges is all that\u2019s needed, and what\u2019s more you don\u2019t get a lawyer or a prosecutor jumping up every minute to shout \u201cobjection!\u201d<\/p>\n

How then is tension so aptly created by Mathieu Amalric, who directs, co-wrote and stars in \u201cLe chamber bleue?\u201d\u00a0 Amalric brings on the heat by supplying not just a whodunit mystery, nor is the film Hitchcockian in the sense that the audience knows the guilty parties from the start.\u00a0 Instead, \u201cThe Blue Room\u201d is a who-done-what.\u00a0 We in the audience know that a crime has been committed, perhaps a murder, but we not only do not know the identity of the killer.\u00a0 We don\u2019t know even who got killed!\u00a0 This is pretty much an original concept, and it works, especially when you\u2019re starring an A-list performer like Amalric, who is not afraid of appearing in full frontal and back nudity despite being no Clive Owen, and acting out the role with a girlfriend who is taller than he is.\u00a0 It\u2019s not easy to size up the Amalric body when you\u2019re concentrating on his French-bulldog eyes, that look upon the proceedings, often without emotion, and yet appear that they\u2019re about to pop out of his head.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Blue Room,\u201d which played in Cannes un certain regard department and which is favored by an excellent score in the soundtrack, comes to us on an unusual 1:1.33 aspect ratio to symbolize the claustrophobic, or at least the insular character of the piece.\u00a0 Until the trial scene it is largely a two-hander that could conceivably be performed on the stage involving Julien Gahyde (Mathieu Amalric), a successful tractor salesman living in a small French town and married to Delphine (L\u00e9a Drucker) and his lover, Esther Despierre (St\u00e9phanie Cl\u00e9au), married to a pharmacist who may be near death from natural causes.\u00a0 They conduct assignations in a hotel when the husband, Nicolas, is away, not appearing to care that in a small town everyone knows your business.<\/p>\n

The sex scenes are graphic enough, at one point showing the two intertwined in bed, particularly appealing for the choreography of the intimacy.\u00a0 (In other words, they don\u2019t simply jump into the sack.)\u00a0 She would like to divorce pending his agreement to do same with his spouse, asking flirtatiously \u201cif we were both suddenly free\u201d what kind of future they might have.\u00a0 For his part, the answer is more nuanced: he tells her, in effect, that were they married, things would not be as exciting as they are now.<\/p>\n

Aside from the deliberately closed-in aspect ratio, \u201cThe Blue Room\u201d is non-linear, a necessary device if we in the audience are to wonder who is the criminal and, indeed, what is the crime?\u00a0 Colors are pronounced, from the redness of the towel that Esther hangs on the balcony to signal when it\u2019s OK for Julien to meet her, the blue on the walls, the drop of blood that falls from Julien\u2019s lip when Esther playfully bites him.\u00a0 From the scenes involving Julien at home, we\u2019re not sure that his wife is aware of the affair, but everyone else in the town seems to be knowledgeable.\u00a0 Julien\u2019s love for his small daughter is obvious and could play a part in Julien\u2019s motivations.<\/p>\n

Formally, the direction is spot-on, every scene the product of careful planning and execution, and the conclusion, though satisfying, leaves us with more questions than answers.\u00a0 And that\u2019s how it should be.<\/p>\n
