“La Petite Bande” by Pierre Salvadori: a literally explosive family comedy

Make a good comedy, haute couture? “Lace, even”, prefers Pierre Salvadori. In the matter, here is a goldsmith. “Apprentices” to ” Freely ! »via “Real Lies” or ” Overpriced “, the director who is a fan of Lubitsch and Hawks, has woven a filmography that is unique in the French cinematographic landscape in his 30-year career. A follower of comedy, yes, but with an elegant ascendancy. With him, no big clogs but a subtle “mixture of emotions” that often sparks off the beaten track. “There are a lot of possibilities to invent in this genre”, he savors.
