'Annette': le reazioni da Cannes dividono la stampa, ma Adam Driver è magnifico
Di Simone Fabriziani
Film di apertura a Cannes 2021, il musical Annette, scritto e diretto da Leos Carax (Holy Motors) e ispirato alle musiche originali degli Sparks, autori anche della colonna sonora e dei testi delle canzoni originali, ha diviso pubblico e critica.
Nel cast del film Adam Driver, il premio Oscar Marion Cotillard e Simon Helberg; nonostante il lungometraggio del regista francese (il suo primo in lingua inglese) abbia spaccato i consensi, sembra che Adam Driver sia particolarmente degno di nota.
Ecco alcune delle reaction più significative scovate su Twitter:
Nella moderna Los Angeles, Henry, un attore comico con un forte senso dell'umorismo, e Ann, una cantante di fama internazionale, formano la coppia perfetta. Tuttavia, la nascita di Annette, la loro prima e misteriosa figlia destinata a una sorte straordinaria, cambierà le loro vite.
I THINK I loved Leos Carax's ANNETTE & all its quirky & infectious peccadillos.

Adam Driver carries the way you'd expect one of the great actors of his generation to do.
Simon Helberg is GLORIOUSLY pure & my favorite supporting turn this year yet.#Annette #CannesFilmFestival pic.twitter.com/sRdL8UuLBE
ANNETTE: Leos Carax made a Sparks musical about how self-loathing men can’t accept love and Adam Driver sings into Marion Cotillard’s vagina (twice!) and then she gives birth to a marionette baby and I was just deeply bored by every dour, self-amused, batshit second of it.

#ANNETTE is a LOT to take in. What I know for sure is Adam Driver is terrific and it’s unlike anything I’ve seen. I honestly couldn’t tell what to make of it a lot of the time. It might be great, it might be messy. I’d need another viewing to be able to say for sure. #Cannes2021 pic.twitter.com/P0gnaEUmLR

Annette - A go-for-broke all out epic rock opera that's about, well, abusive men and exploitation in the music industry. Endlessly witty, crazy creative, totally ridiculous with a puppet baby and so much more. Adam Driver is extraordinary, as always, in musical form. #Cannes2021

i thought adam driver doing bo burnham-style stand up and having a horrifying robot baby with marion cotillard was weird but ANNETTE just kept outdoing itself. a true shitpost of a movie. don’t know if i like it yet but i respect the audacity #cannes2021

The ghost of Yekaterina Golubeva floats other ANNETTE and Carax's Lovers on the Brink might not be everybody's cup of tea but it destroyed me completely. He basically tore his heart in a myriad of intimate treasures here. Adam Driver is a gift from God.
