Noah Baumbach has adapted Don DeLillo’s masterpiece with an all-star cast that includes Adam Driver, Greta Gerwig, Don Cheadle and Jodie Turner-Smith.
Noah Baumbach has adapted Don DeLillo’s masterpiece as if nostalgic for its prophetic dimension. It may sound contradictory, but his film, impregnated with an eighties aesthetic that projects its paranoia towards the contemporary, seems to tell us that the future has already passed.. The Gladney family is dysfunctional enough to occupy pride of place in a filmography that has always shown an interest in eccentric households, but ‘Background Noise’ widens the battlefield with a sort of omnibus film that is many things at once. time, from a Martian sitcom to a dystopian fable, from a shrewd parody of the theater of the absurd of the academic world to a profound meditation on our fear of death.
‘Background noise’ does not always live up to its ambitions, especially when it faces the ‘new normal’ of its protagonists after suffering the effects of a toxic cloud. In this final section, it is difficult for him to adjust the abrupt changes in tone of the story, but it closes with a memorable musical scene, with a supermarket as a luminous purgatory of our desire for happiness.
For lovers of fulfilled prophecies
