Man on the Train (L'Homme du Train) description
You wouldn't think a movie that's mostly two old guys talking could be a thriller, but that's exactly what Man on the Train is. French singer Johnny Hallyday plays a professional criminal who comes to a small town to take part in a robbery. By chance, he meets talkative Jean Rochefort (The Hairdresser's Husband), who invites the laconic Hallyday to stay at his house because the hotel is closed. The two form an unlikely friendship, each curious about (and envious of) the other's life. But all the while plans for the robbery continue, while Rochefort is preparing for a dangerous event of his own. The pitch-perfect performances make Man on the Train completely involving. Rochefort and Hallyday play off of each other beautifully; it's impossible to put your finger on what makes these subtle, supple scenes so magnetic. Directed with spare authority by Patrice Leconte (Ridicule). --Bret Fetzer |

♥♥♥♥♥ |
An extremely thoughtful minimalist film
|
| The best stories begin with character. We have two who will definitely make you care about them. Funny, real, dramatic, and though provoking. You'll think about this one after you watch it, and you'll put it back on your shelf to watch again later. A reviewer is given so much, by the way, that he might forget to mention just how great the visual sense of it is. A fine film indeed. |
