“Successful in all respects”: rating 4.1 out of 5, this is Charlotte Gainsbourg’s best film

After Danny Boone’s comedy Life for Real, released in April 2023, Charlotte Gainsbourg returns to the cinema in Nous, Leroux. In theaters on April 10, the film introduces Sandrine Leroy, played by Charlotte. The latter tells her husband Christophe (Jose Garcia) that she wants a divorce.

Their children are soon old enough to leave home. In a final operation, both daring and improbable, Christoph organizes a weekend to save his marriage: a trip to key locations in their family history. A journey that will not be easy.

In connection with the release date of this Florent Bernard comedy, we take a look at Charlotte Gainsbourg’s filmography. What is the 53-year-old actor’s best movie according to AlloCiné viewers? To find it, you have to take a small leap back to find yourself in 2017.

That year, Charlotte played Nina, the mother of Romain Gary, aka Pierre Nine, in La Promesse de l’aube. From a difficult childhood in Poland, to adolescence, under the sun of Nice, to his work as a pilot in Africa during the Second World War… Romain Garry lived an extraordinary life.

But this decision to live a thousand lives, to become a great person and a famous writer, belongs to Nina, her mother. It is the maddened love of this lovely and eccentric mother that makes her one of the major novelists of the 20th century, with a life full of twists and turns, passions and mysteries. But this boundless maternal love will also be the burden of her life.

Rated 4.1 out of 5 (5284 average ratings), La Promesse is the best Charlotte Gainsbourg movie according to AlloCiné viewers.

What do viewers think?

“Wonderful!”– Zembla tells us. “I came back from this film with tears in my eyes because it is so moving, so masterful, so heartbreaking with love and emotion… Bravo to Charlotte Gainsbourg and Pierre Nin for their brilliant interpretation.”

For Alice025, “Pierre Nin is incredible as always, but my surprise comes from Charlotte Gainsbourg, she totally blew me away with her interpretation, this piece is as exciting as it is heartbreaking.”

Big emotions?

According to Axel J., the promise of dawn is “A successful film on every level, direction, acting, setting, etc… It’s visually beautiful and brilliantly human and romantic.”

Margaux DB is on the same wavelength: “A very beautiful film that takes us through the life of Roman Garry and makes us experience beautiful and great emotions of Pierre Nin and Charlotte Gainsbourg!”

While the vast majority of viewers really appreciated the film and rated it between 4 and 5 stars, some missed director Eric Barbier’s suggestion.

Lack of rhythm?

Esteban “I really don’t understand these amazing reviews. We shouldn’t have seen the same movie. The first hour is incredibly boring, few people left the cinema. It’s dark, there’s no rhythm, in short, we really don’t understand. Remember nothing, I was also hesitant to go.

According to Le Film d’Ariane, “The Promise of Dawn tries to recapture the epic breath of the writer’s masterpiece with two Goncourt prizes. A little slow in its first act and overly contrived in its reconstruction of pre-war Poland, the film gets more shaky once the couple settles in France, but in the end, the emotion is often lacking, which is a shame for such a moving story. .

In turn, Yves G leads “An ageless academic and without genius, a poor blockbuster, drowned in deaf music, which is content to connect scenes without trying to establish a point of view. Because the motherly love described there is so absolute, and Nina was so caricatured, that we will either laugh or cry at it.”

If you want to make up your own mind about The Promise of Dawn, the movie is available on Netflix.
