 Coolness: 92375 | After hearing so much about this movie, I finally went to go see it - and was really impressed.
"Les Invasions.." is a profound, deeply philosophical film concerning a radical Quebecois intellectual who is nearing his death. Stuck in an overcroweded hospital ward, the dying man begins to ponder his life's shortcomings, and face his inevitable demise. If this makes it sound like a sad, depessing film, it is in some sense - but it also is a celebration of the joys of living: the company of friends, sexuality, and human relationships. Its also a political movie, and one of the more interesting themes it explores is the way in which our society treats the dying. In the film, the wealthy son of the dying father comes to his rescue, whisking him from the chaotic hospital to a beatiful lakeside cottage, and procuring heroin for his father to ease the transition to death. I found this a very moving and wonderful film, and recommend it :) |
