2019 Movie Diary - 15/365
Jeannette, l'enfance de Jeanne d'Arc | Bruno Dumont | 8/10
Well I wasn’t expecting that at all, but it was fun as hell. Everything shocks you at first, the child non actors reciting the dialogues, the hardcore music and the choreography contrasted with the beautiful cinematography. But all these contrasts are what make it great but the effect is diminished after a while when you get used to it. Still a very original and effective way to depict this less known part of her story.

I find the subjects so unimportant. It’s like in painting: you can make something grand, major, with just a little crossroads in the countryside. The subject is so unimportant. I was very interested in a series, to come back to something. So, in Quinquin, I come back to my characters four years later. So there’s the same actors, the same characters, then something else. That’s exactly what I think of cinema: it’s always the same director making another film, so there’s always some same and some other. I’m always making The Life of Jesus, actually. But my style has evolved, my sensibility has evolved, so now, when I see The Life of Jesus, I want to recut it. We continue making films because we evolve. There’s no reason to say “I’m going to stop” because we’re constantly evolving.
Bruno Dumont on the rhythm of Jeannette, evolution of style, and the actor's interpretation.
