Navell played Edward heartbreakingly.
After the transformation of the famous French actor Albert Dupont Thiel into a director, he successively made "September Pregnancy" and "Goodbye in Heaven", two masterpieces that have been nominated for multiple nominations for the French César Film Award. "Goodbye from Heaven," which won him best adapted screenplay and best director, will be released in China on April 30.
In the film, Albert and The Actor of 120 Strikes Per minute, Navel Perez Biscayate, team up to stage a story of using art to find soul freedom and fight against evil. The film recently held a media screening in Guangzhou, the actor's acting skills, shocking scenes, retro elegant tones and beautiful and sad stories, let many viewers see the charm of French films.
Set against the backdrop of "World War I" and a martyrs' monument fraud that shocked france, "Goodbye to Heaven" tells the black humorous story of two veteran soldiers who take revenge on the world of money supremacy and gold-worshiping kitsch.
Edward, the son of a banker from a noble and artistic talent, went to war against his domineering and authoritarian father and became close comrades-in-arms with the kind and generous accountant Albert. The two escaped from a fierce war, and Edward was unfortunately blown up by the war and half of his face, not only unable to eat normally, but also losing his language function. After suffering such a devastating blow, he could only rely on drugs to survive, and 38 gorgeous masks could not hide the pain in his heart. Albert also suffered a double whammy of career and love. But Henry, the evil chief of the two men's former battlefields, made a fortune and prospered, and these two poor people who had been traumatized by the war were determined to launch an earth-shattering and gorgeous revenge.
As an actor who can play any sensitive, literary role in a subtle way, Navell played Edward heartbreakingly this time. This rebellious nobleman lost half of his face on the battlefield and once lost his desire to survive. Under the care of Albert, played by Abel, he slowly stabilized his mood and made various masks for himself to cover his face. And the pain of life that is difficult to hide under his gorgeous mask is still lamentable.
Edward and Albert use black humor and art to fight against the evil represented by Henry. Roland Lafayette, who played the villain in "Her", played Henry this time, also belongs to the role of the human-faced beast heart. While taking into account the story and watchability of commercial films, the film also retains the agile and light temperament of classic French films. The scene is grand, the special effects are exquisite, the gorgeous art and retro tones add to the sense of age and epic of the film, and the unique cold humor and absurdity of the French are used to show the pain caused by the war on the side, and also render the sadness of the protagonist in the film who cannot fight against fate.
