âThat strange revolution which sees the sons of the bourgeois throw cobblestones at the sons of proletarians.â So observed the French writer Jean Cau of Paris in 1968, when student protests about living conditions at the university erupted into a historic rebellion against the old guard.
That year, the United States was rocked by riots, assassinations and political crisis, and half a century later, history seems to be, if not repeating itself, then certainly rhyming. Yet while there are huge differences between the 1968 and 2020 disturbances, the one continuous theme running through both uprisings, and indeed all revolutions down the years, is the prominent role of the middle class. In particular, the upper-middle-class, the haute bourgeoise, are the driving force behind revolt and disorder throughout history, especially â as with today â when they feel they have no future.
Todayâs unrest involves two sections of US society, African-Americans and upper-middle-class whites, who together form the axis of the Democratic Party, but it is the latter who are far more engaged in racial activism. The âGreat Awokeningâ, the mass movement focused on eradicating racism in America and with a quasi-religious, almost hysterical feel to it, is dominated by the upper middle class.
âŠ
The rich have always paradoxically been radical, something G.K. Chesterton observed over a hundred years ago when he wrote âYouâve got that eternal idiotic idea that if anarchy came it would come from the poor. Why should it? The poor have been rebels, but they have never been anarchists: they have more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasnât; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all. Aristocrats were always anarchists.â
Before the industrial age established a political divide in which a middle-class conservative/liberal alliance opposed a working-class socialist movement, radicalism was usually an elite or at least bourgeois concern. The Reformation was disproportionately popular among the urban educated; later, while the Whigs were dominant among the wealthy London merchants, Toryism was much more common in the country as a whole.
When the French Revolution degenerated into violence a few intellectuals and aristocrats based in what is now Notting Hill sympathised with the Jacobins, but the English poor were largely unsympathetic, and showed their feelings with the brutal Priestley riots in Birmingham.
That revolution was itself largely a bourgeois affair, most of its leaders being lawyers, journalists or similar. The sans-culottes were idolised as an almost sacred group everyone had to pay lip service to, but they were often preferred in the abstract. Jean-Paul Marat called his newspaper LâAmi du peuple but in reality he despised them, partly because âthe peopleâ are not that radical.
âŠ
Marx had one proletarian colleague, Wilhelm Weitling, who he ended up putting through a âquasi-trialâ, in Paul Johnsonâs words, because he didnât agree with all of Marxâs doctrine. The great communist intellectual believed that workers had to be instructed with a âbody of doctrine and clear scientific ideasâ, and because Weitling had his own opinions, he was cancelled â although Marxâs followers had a more permanent way of cancelling people.
Leninâs Bolsheviks followed in this fashion, radicalised by their experience at universities, not factories. The Russian revolutionaries were so bourgeois that, as Daniel Kalder observed in Dictator Literature: âOnly one solitary worker ever sat on the executive board of Leninâs party, and he turned out to be a police spy.â
That noble tradition of haute bourgeoisie revolution continues today, especially in the US. The Occupy movement, for example, is deeply opposed to the 1% but largely because they come from the 2-5%; Amy Chua cited figures suggesting that in New York, more than half it members earned $75,000 or more while only 8% were on low incomes, compared to 30% of the city. They also have hugely disproportionate numbers of graduates and post-grads among their members.
The wider Great Awokening, of which the 2020 disturbances are a part, is a very elite phenomenon, with progressive activists nearly twice as likely as the average American to make more than $100,000 a year, nearly three times as likely to have a postgraduate degree, and only one-quarter as likely to be black. Likewise with the radicalisation of American academia, with the safe spaces movement most prevalent at elite colleges, where students were much more likely to disinvite speakers or express more extreme views.
âŠ
This trend would only accelerate, driven by a combination of media, expanding education and globalisation. In his highly prophetic The Revolt of the Elites, published after his death in 1994, Christopher Lasch argued that the new ruling class was becoming far more radicalised as its values diverged from a more parochial lumpen bourgeois. This more global-minded elite, used to seeing the world at 30,000ft, now embraced diversity as a mark of status but also a faith, with identity politics a replacement for religion â âor at least for the feeling of self-righteousness that is so commonly confused with religionâ.
The Great Awokening certainly draws on Americaâs sectarian religious tradition, in a country formed by Calvinists, Quakers, Baptists and a dozen other Christian sects, but there are also materialist causes, in particular the expansion of the university system and runaway housing costs.
High house prices, in particular caused by planning restrictions, make it harder for the urban elite to settle down and have families â something likely to have a civilizing effect â and also pushes them radically to the Left.
âŠ
This has been bubbling up for years â and then along came the coronavirus, throwing millions of people out of work, many from exactly the sort of sections most likely to cause trouble. And what makes it slightly spooky is that a few years back Turchin predicted that there would be a violent flashpoint in American politics â in 2020.
History teaches us that disaffected and bored members of the elite can become a destabilising influence on society. In medieval Europe, the younger sons of lords, destined to never inherit land, were at the centre of numerous rebellions and wars, with the crusades acting as a pressure valve for their violent impulses. In China the term âbare branchesâ is used to describe those excess males unable to find mates and who then went on to cause trouble, and modern America has record numbers of single people.
Perhaps the most famous example of elite overproduction is the War of the Roses. Edward IIIâs seven surviving children married into the most powerful families in the realm, helping to stabilise politics during his reign, but this fecund group produced huge numbers of grandchildren and great-grandchildren chasing a limited number of baronial positions, during a period when post-pandemic population decline had hugely decreased the wealth of the landowning class. When the king descended into listless insanity the rival factions turned English politics into a Shakespearean bloodbath.
The lesson of that crisis, as of every crises since, is that discontent and boredom among the rich and powerful can quickly descend into violence; it is they, in the words of the Beatlesâ 1968 hit, who usually want to change the world.

Chantal Mouffe, la théoricienne préférée de Jean-Luc Mélenchon, publie son manifeste pour un populisme de gauche. Avec ses contradictions et ses limites.
Au commencement était le jargon: «Toute position de sujet est construite à l'intérieur d'une structure discursive essentiellement instable ; elle est soumise à une multiplicité de pratiques articulatoires qui ne cessent de la subvertir et de la transformer.»
Au commencement était Ernesto. Le livre lui est dédié. Ernesto Laclau, le maßtre, l'inspirateur, le Pygmalion. Il est à notre auteur Chantal Mouffe ce que Sartre fut à Simone de Beauvoir et Heidegger à Hannah Arendt.
Au commencement Ă©tait l'AmĂ©rique du Sud. Le continent de naissance d'Ernesto. Le premier terrain d'expĂ©rimentation de ses thĂ©ories. Ce qui fausse le regard de nos deux laborantins: l'AmĂ©rique du Sud est un continent certes mĂ©tissĂ© entre EuropĂ©ens, Indiens et Noirs, mais unifiĂ© par le christianisme ; oĂč le seul fondamentalisme qui menace est l'Ă©vangĂ©lisme protestant.
Nos théoriciens se leurrent : le «peuple» français n'est pas né le 14 juillet 1789. Son émergence et sa prise de conscience «nationale» ont pris des siÚcles et des siÚcles
Au commencement Ă©tait la RĂ©volution française. Le big bang, l'acte de naissance d'un «peuple» qui se forge dans la lutte contre les «privilĂ©giĂ©s». Chantal Mouffe y voit le modĂšle de toute insurrection progressiste. LĂ aussi, nos thĂ©oriciens se leurrent: le «peuple» français n'est pas nĂ© le 14 juillet 1789. Laclau et Mouffe auraient dĂ» mieux lire Michelet: l'Ă©mergence du peuple français et sa prise de conscience «nationale» ont pris des siĂšcles et des siĂšcles, et les rois et l'Ăglise, les deux institutions les plus «rĂ©actionnaires» n'y sont pas pour rien. Par ailleurs, le conflit rĂ©volutionnaire entre le «peuple» et les «privilĂ©giĂ©s» a trĂšs vite tournĂ© en une guerre inexpiable entre «Français» et «étrangers», entre «patriotes» et «Pitt et Cobourg», les premiers ministres anglais et prussien, les aristocrates et le roi Ă©tant mis dans le mĂȘme sac d'opprobre que les «étrangers».
Au commencement Ă©tait Carl Schmitt. C'est l'immense juriste allemand qui a rĂ©sumĂ© l'essence de la politique entre «ami» et «ennemi» et a montrĂ© l'incompatibilitĂ© entre libĂ©ralisme et dĂ©mocratie, celle-ci ayant besoin d'un peuple pour la faire vivre, celui-lĂ ayant comme horizon l'humanitĂ©. Laclau et Mouffe doivent tout Ă Schmitt, mais le flirt de l'Allemand avec les nazis lors des premiĂšres annĂ©es du pouvoir de Hitler l'a rendu sulfureux. Notre auteur fait donc du Schmitt mais en l'aseptisant. Elle le dit dans son style abscons: «Le conflit ne doit pas prendre la forme d'un antagonisme (une lutte entre ennemis) mais d'un âagonismeâ (une lutte entre adversaires).»
Chantal Mouffe a le bon diagnostic : «âNous vivons un moment populiste.â» C'est-Ă -dire la rĂ©volte des peuples. Mais elle refuse d'y voir autre chose qu'un combat contre la mondialisation libĂ©rale et l'accroissement des inĂ©galitĂ©s qu'elle a provoquĂ©
Au commencement était Jean-Luc Mélenchon. L'ami français, le meilleur élÚve, celui qui sait noyer le jargon théoricien dans le lyrisme littéraire. Celui qui met en pratique la théorie. Celui qui bute sur ses apories et ses contradictions.
Chantal Mouffe a le bon diagnostic: «Nous vivons un moment populiste.» C'est-à -dire la révolte des peuples. Mais elle refuse d'y voir autre chose qu'un combat contre la mondialisation libérale et l'accroissement des inégalités qu'elle a provoqué. Elle se moque des limites du marxisme pour mieux s'enfermer dans un autre économisme.
On comprend mieux le lyrisme patriotique de Mélenchon : du miel pour attraper les mouches
Pour elle, un peuple n'est pas dĂ©fini par une histoire, un passĂ© partagĂ©, des hĂ©ros, des mĆurs, des coutumes, une religion, un art de vivre, «la terre et les morts», des paysages, une culture. Un peuple n'a rien de charnel, mais est une crĂ©ation artificielle. Une invention de laboratoire. Dans son jargon, cela donne: «Le peuple n'est pas un rĂ©fĂ©rent empirique mais une construction politique discursive. Le âpeupleâ n'existe pas avant l'acte performatif qui lui donne naissance.» Elle ne conserve la rĂ©fĂ©rence Ă la nation que pour profiter de «la force de l'investissement libidinal Ă l'Ćuvre dans les formes nationales d'identification», et affirme qu'«on risquerait gros Ă abandonner ce terrain au populisme de droite». On comprend mieux le lyrisme patriotique de MĂ©lenchon: du miel pour attraper les mouches.
Mais ce «populisme de gauche» s'enferre vite dans ses contradictions. Il veut marier le vieux socialisme de classe et le nouveau progressisme sociétal, en «articulant» la classe ouvriÚre avec les féministes, les écolos et les antiracistes. Elle veut faire (et Mélenchon avec elle) en grand ce que la LCR de Besancenot a déjà raté, lorsqu'une candidate voilée avait ulcéré les vieux trotskistes libertaires. Mouffe ne veut pas voir ce que Christopher Lasch a démontré depuis longtemps: le féminisme fut le bras armé des patrons pour briser les résistances du patriarcat ouvrier. Quant à l'immigration, non seulement elle a longtemps constitué «l'armée de réserve du capital» (ce que certains à La France insoumise ont fini par comprendre), mais, depuis le regroupement familial dans les années 1970, a entraßné l'islamisation des anciennes terres ouvriÚres. Enfin, la question écologique est d'abord une question démographique, provoquée par l'expansion inouïe de la population africaine ; elle est liée évidemment aux vagues migratoires.
Le populisme n'est pas seulement une lutte du bas contre le haut, du peuple contre les oligarchies, mais plus largement un cri de survie des peuples européens qui ne veulent pas mourir
Cet anti-essentialisme de principe rend borgne Mouffe et ses Ă©coliers français. Le populisme n'est pas seulement une lutte du bas contre le haut, du peuple contre les oligarchies, mais plus largement un cri de survie des peuples europĂ©ens qui ne veulent pas mourir et qui tentent d'arrĂȘter tous les universalismes qui veulent les engloutir: universalisme libĂ©ral des droits de l'homme et universalisme islamique. Mouffe a oubliĂ© la leçon d'Engels: «à partir d'un certain nombre, la quantitĂ© devient une qualitĂ©.» Elle loue le populisme de Corbyn, mais elle fait mine de ne pas voir que le travaillisme anglais a ressuscitĂ© avec drapeaux palestiniens Ă ses congrĂšs et dĂ©clarations antisĂ©mites de son leader. On le voit aussi en France oĂč les islamo- gauchistes et les indigĂ©nistes identitaires tiennent le haut du pavĂ© mĂ©diatique et universitaire.
Au fond, Chantal Mouffe n'est dupe de rien. Elle a seulement inventé un nouveau «truc» pour faire piÚce à son véritable ennemi, non pas le libéralisme ou l'oligarchie, mais le «populisme de droite» . En conclusion, elle écrit qu'en cas d'échec de son «populisme de gauche» (pourtant programmé) il y aura «confrontation entre des valeurs morales et des formes essentialistes d'identification qui ne seront pas négociables». En langue française, cela s'appelle une guerre de religion et de civilisation.

âThat strange revolution which sees the sons of the bourgeois throw cobblestones at the sons of proletarians.â So observed the French writer Jean Cau of Paris in 1968, when student protests about living conditions at the university erupted into a historic rebellion against the old guard.
That year, the United States was rocked by riots, assassinations and political crisis, and half a century later, history seems to be, if not repeating itself, then certainly rhyming. Yet while there are huge differences between the 1968 and 2020 disturbances, the one continuous theme running through both uprisings, and indeed all revolutions down the years, is the prominent role of the middle class. In particular, the upper-middle-class, the haute bourgeoise, are the driving force behind revolt and disorder throughout history, especially â as with today â when they feel they have no future.
Todayâs unrest involves two sections of US society, African-Americans and upper-middle-class whites, who together form the axis of the Democratic Party, but it is the latter who are far more engaged in racial activism. The âGreat Awokeningâ, the mass movement focused on eradicating racism in America and with a quasi-religious, almost hysterical feel to it, is dominated by the upper middle class.
Of course, when journalists say that any group of protesters are âmiddle classâ (in the British, rather than American, sense) they often mean to downplay their grievances or the value of their argument. Political debate, in British life in particular, is often about who genuinely represents the mystical proletariat, or âreal peopleâ, and opinion formers are obsessed with class and elitism. Most discourse goes something along the lines of âyouâre the eliteâ, âno, YOUâRE the eliteâ, an endless, tedious game played by both Right and Left. I donât think the composition of a group gives it any more moral weight, but it is true that revolutions and protests, even those ostensibly about the working class or other downtrodden groups, have historically been a bourgeois thing â and 2020 is no different.
The rich have always paradoxically been radical, something G.K. Chesterton observed over a hundred years ago when he wrote âYouâve got that eternal idiotic idea that if anarchy came it would come from the poor. Why should it? The poor have been rebels, but they have never been anarchists: they have more interest than anyone else in there being some decent government. The poor man really has a stake in the country. The rich man hasnât; he can go away to New Guinea in a yacht. The poor have sometimes objected to being governed badly; the rich have always objected to being governed at all.

The Reformation was disproportionately popular among the urban educated; later, while the Whigs were dominant among the wealthy London merchants, Toryism was much more common in the country as a whole.
When the French Revolution degenerated into violence a few intellectuals and aristocrats based in what is now Notting Hill sympathised with the Jacobins, but the English poor were largely unsympathetic, and showed their feelings with the brutal Priestley riots in Birmingham.
That revolution was itself largely a bourgeois affair, most of its leaders being lawyers, journalists or similar. The sans-culottes were idolised as an almost sacred group everyone had to pay lip service to, but they were often preferred in the abstract. Jean-Paul Marat called his newspaper LâAmi du peuple but in reality he despised them, partly because âthe peopleâ are not that radical.
This the revolutionaries learned when they tried to overturn the old order and build the world anew, met with fierce resistance by the conservative peasantry in the VendĂ©e region. In southern Italy French Jacobins invaders intent on liberating the country from religious oppression faced the Sanfedismo (âHoly Faithâ), a rural army fighting to defend the faith and king.
Likewise, the Russian Communist movement. While Karl Marx made endless references to the proletariat, he made very little effort to actually deal with them in the flesh, and when he did, he was disappointed by their moderation; when Marxâs comrades formed the First International they made sure that working-class socialists werenât allowed anywhere near the important positions.
Marx had one proletarian colleague, Wilhelm Weitling, who he ended up putting through a âquasi-trialâ, in Paul Johnsonâs words, because he didnât agree with all of Marxâs doctrine. The great communist intellectual believed that workers had to be instructed with a âbody of doctrine and clear scientific ideasâ, and because Weitling had his own opinions, he was cancelled â although Marxâs followers had a more permanent way of cancelling people.
Leninâs Bolsheviks followed in this fashion, radicalised by their experience at universities, not factories. The Russian revolutionaries were so bourgeois that, as Daniel Kalder observed in Dictator Literature: âOnly one solitary worker ever sat on the executive board of Leninâs party, and he turned out to be a police spy.â
That noble tradition of haute bourgeoisie revolution continues today, especially in the US. The Occupy movement, for example, is deeply opposed to the 1% but largely because they come from the 2-5%; Amy Chua cited figures suggesting that in New York, more than half it members earned $75,000 or more while only 8% were on low incomes, compared to 30% of the city. They also have hugely disproportionate numbers of graduates and post-grads among their members.
The wider Great Awokening, of which the 2020 disturbances are a part, is a very elite phenomenon, with progressive activists nearly twice as likely as the average American to make more than $100,000 a year, nearly three times as likely to have a postgraduate degree, and only one-quarter as likely to be black. Likewise with the radicalisation of American academia, with the safe spaces movement most prevalent at elite colleges, where students were much more likely to disinvite speakers or express more extreme views.
This indicates a significant radicalisation of the rich, a process that began in the 1960s when the heavily class-based politics of the 20th century began to shift. That social revolution, referred to in Britain as the permissive society, was entirely led by from above, a conflict epitomised in Britain by Midlands housewife Mary Whitehouse and her hopeless crusade against the public school liberal Hugh Greene.
In France, while Jean-Paul Sartreâs existentialist philosophy made huge headway among students of philosophy and future Cambodian mass murderers, it was less successful when he turned up at a Paris car factory to proclaim revolution. In 1968 the workers of Paris famously refused to side with the students, while in the US, as Christopher Caldwell noted in The Age of Entitlement, that yearâs protests and the wider political conflict was partly about social status, with Ivy League students fighting working-class cops, many of whom had sons or brothers in Vietnam fighting a war they still believed in.
âWhen 135 students affiliated with Students for a Democratic Society occupied Harvardâs University Hall,â Caldwell writes: âthe Harvard professor of Irish literature John Kelleher, a working-class Irishman from Lawrence, Massachusetts, called them âspoiled brats with an underdeveloped sense of history and a flair for self-protectionââ. After 1968, âprivileged Americans took out of the Vietnam era a sense of their own moral authority that was not battered but strangely enhanced.â The new class war had begun.
This trend would only accelerate, driven by a combination of media, expanding education and globalisation. In his highly prophetic The Revolt of the Elites, published after his death in 1994, Christopher Lasch argued that the new ruling class was becoming far more radicalised as its values diverged from a more parochial lumpen bourgeois. This more global-minded elite, used to seeing the world at 30,000ft, now embraced diversity as a mark of status but also a faith, with identity politics a replacement for religion â âor at least for the feeling of self-righteousness that is so commonly confused with religionâ.
The Great Awokening certainly draws on Americaâs sectarian religious tradition, in a country formed by Calvinists, Quakers, Baptists and a dozen other Christian sects, but there are also materialist causes, in particular the expansion of the university system and runaway housing costs.
High house prices, in particular caused by planning restrictions, make it harder for the urban elite to settle down and have families â something likely to have a civilizing effect â and also pushes them radically to the Left.
Meanwhile, the expansion of the university system has created what Russian-American academic Peter Turchin called âelite overproductionâ, the socially dangerous situation where too many people are chasing too few elite places in society, creating âa large class of disgruntled elite-wannabes, often well-educated and highly capable⊠denied access to elite positionsâ.
So while around half of 18-year-olds are going onto college, only a far smaller number of jobs actually require a degree. Many of those graduates, under the impression they were joining the higher tier in society, will not even reach managerial level and will be left disappointed and hugely indebted. Many will have studied various activist-based subjects collectively referred to as âgrievance studiesâ, so-called because they rest on a priori assumptions about power and oppression. Whether these disciplines push students towards the Left, or if it is just attending university that has this effect, people are coming out of university far more politically agitated.
While the evidence on that is not clear, itâs arguable that a tiny number of very intelligent people being taught the theories of Marcuse or Foucault is probably going to have a limited social impact; when these ideas are disseminated among huge numbers of the young, many of them conformists sensitive to the social cues around them, then quite extreme ideas about dismantling society become normalised.
This has been bubbling up for years â and then along came the coronavirus, throwing millions of people out of work, many from exactly the sort of sections most likely to cause trouble. And what makes it slightly spooky is that a few years back Turchin predicted that there would be a violent flashpoint in American politics â in 2020.
History teaches us that disaffected and bored members of the elite can become a destabilising influence on society. In medieval Europe, the younger sons of lords, destined to never inherit land, were at the centre of numerous rebellions and wars, with the crusades acting as a pressure valve for their violent impulses. In China the term âbare branchesâ is used to describe those excess males unable to find mates and who then went on to cause trouble, and modern America has record numbers of single people.
Perhaps the most famous example of elite overproduction is the War of the Roses. Edward IIIâs seven surviving children married into the most powerful families in the realm, helping to stabilise politics during his reign, but this fecund group produced huge numbers of grandchildren and great-grandchildren chasing a limited number of baronial positions, during a period when post-pandemic population decline had hugely decreased the wealth of the landowning class. When the king descended into listless insanity the rival factions turned English politics into a Shakespearean bloodbath.
The lesson of that crisis, as of every crises since, is that discontent and boredom among the rich and powerful can quickly descend into violence; it is they, in the words of the Beatlesâ 1968 hit, who usually want to change the world.

6 December
Wrote a semester evaluation:
Communication 1 - Writing Practice
I attended the writing workshop with Nina SchjĂžnsby.
It was very good. She gave a set of precise assignments, that the students had to fulfil within a given timeframe. Each participant had to contribute with his own personal writing, ideas, views but we also experienced ways to work in collaboration with others. The texts were read out loud, presented to the group for discussion. At the end of the last day I asked her what she would have proposed to do if we could work together for one more day, she replied we could have used the material to make a one-copy hand-written journal. Personal and collective. Open and precise. I would definitely recommend to call her back again.
Contextualization 1 - Public Space Intro + Art and Theory
Fundamental course with a good balance between individual interests and introduction to different relevant fields of research. I am obviously enjoying very much the reading-writing-presenting-discussing sessions with Olga and my fellows students but I praise the choice of invited guests as well, especially when touching upon decolonizing academia, but also the good practise of inviting current researchers (And Graff) as well as fellow students (Erika Reed).
Artistic Research 1 - Critical Spacial Practice + Study Trip
We were not very lucky with Amy Franceschini, and also Pedro Lasch have been in Oslo only for one afternoon. The fact that we have such an opportunity, being able to organise a public program related to our interests, is great. We should try to make sure we get the most out of it, perhaps with programming not only presentations but some kind of workshop, or a public event that is not only the guest presentationâŠto think about, looking also at budget issues I suppose.
I must say I was a bit disappointed by the Berlin Biennale, although the collateral activities were interesting. But I would have preferred to go to see Manifesta in Palermo instead. Wouldnât it be interesting to discuss together where to go for the next one? Of course in Venice you can see a lot in one place. But perhaps somebody want to propose something else? A raise in the trip funding from 2000 to at least 3000 kr would also make a big difference for most of us.
Master Project 1
Have little to say. The frequency of tutorial and group presentation is fine, as long as we are able to ask for more individually (which I did ask to Olga, as I wanted to have a feedback after my student presentation to the other MAPS and MAMBA students).
Production 1 - Hands On
The workshop with Oscar Lara was very interesting, he generously proposed many thoughts, suggestions, exercises and activities but it was very fragmentary. Hands On should probably be very much Hands On, as we donât have many other opportunities to MAKE things in the other courses.
I love you. Looking forward for the next semester.

 Comme je le soulignais dans les articles intitulĂ©s SĂ©ances SupplĂ©mentaires, et comme câest certainement le cas pour bon nombre de rĂ©dacteurs de critique de films, afin de prĂ©parer et rĂ©diger une nouvelle chronique sur un mĂ©trage, on fait quelques recherches. Le rĂ©alisateur, parfois le scĂ©nariste, souvent les principaux acteurs, font lâobjet de quelques lectures.
A partir de lĂ , il arrive parfois quâon dĂ©couvre un ou plusieurs films qui sont passĂ©s Ă travers notre radar. Du coup, ces derniers peuvent faire lâobjet du dĂ©sir de les dĂ©couvrir. DâoĂč la crĂ©ation dâune Wishlist. Pour ma part, câest rĂ©guliĂšrement que je dĂ©couvre des mĂ©trages qui mâintĂ©ressent. Je vais donc essayer, chaque dimanche, de proposer ma liste de souhaits, ou ma liste dâenvie, suite Ă mes pĂ©rĂ©grinations cinĂ©philes.
Pour cette semaine allant du 25 septembre au 1er octobre 2017, je me suis arrĂȘtĂ© sur 14 films, dont voici la liste :

Au milieu de ce jeu du chat et de la souris, un agent de police japonais nĂ© en CorĂ©e, et ayant fait partie de la rĂ©sistance, se retrouve face Ă un dilemme entre les nĂ©cessitĂ©s de la rĂ©alitĂ© et lâinstinct de soutenir une plus grande cause.

Lâinspecteur dĂ©couvre que les camĂ©ras de surveillance ont filmĂ© Kim Byeong-gook revenir au bureau juste aprĂšs le massacre⊠mais jamais en ressortir. OĂč le tueur se cache-t-il ? Alors quâune vĂ©ritable psychose sâabat sur les employĂ©s, le bureau est le théùtre dâĂ©vĂ©nements mystĂ©rieux.
