I like movies that get remade in a different country/language from the original. There is a different touch to it, and I like that change of freshness in addition to the film itself.
I was looking forward for this movie recently after I heard it is a remake of 2019 Danish film "Queen of Hearts". I love the original movie, it was beautiful, Intense, the characters were great and so were the actors portraying them. I watched it long time back and was curious how much of it I would remember while I watch this French remake. Surprisingly it was a lot since scenes from this movie just kept on poking me, they just felt incomplete.
The movie starts with a bad side actress, personally that stung me. I did not get involved with any characters, I didn't feel the motivation or any doings the characters do. The film just moves a pace than it should have. Things just happen and keep on happening, it just feels dead, I feel the audience doesn't get any chance understanding of how the characters are feeling or what they want next. It just felt like the film wants to move on to the next stage of story in each new scene, and that makes it dull, so eventually it gets unexciting minute by minute feeling tedious. And then a time comes you are just watching just to complete this movie till the end.
I feel like Léa Drucker did good, She did her part nicely all through her scenes but the way this movie is done, she can't do anything and I don't blame her. Others were ok. I know this movie is shorter than the original and I realize it is because this they trimmed down on simple scenes that they felt is not important. But those scenes do justice, A simple scene from the original where Trine Dyrholm checks out herself in the mirror in a follow up scene gives out so much to the audience about what she is feeling. Léa Drucker doesn't have any scenes like these, so the connection between the audience and the characters die slowly. The sex scene in the original was intense and showed purpose, this film butchers that as well, there is no real narrative to that scene. It just doesn't go well,.
I did a lot of comparison with the original but I would say none the less, the movie is a disappointment without the comparison. The screenplay, the pacing just doesn't feel organic. Will definitely recommend the original, Queen of Hearts(Dronningen) {2019}.

Messy, unsettling, and quietly gripping. The tension between family members and the way secrets and loyalties clash feels real, and the cast handles the awkward, simmering moments well. Some parts drag, and it's not exactly thrilling, but it's interesting enough to keep watching and shows how messy family dynamics can get when things are left unsaid.
Of course this scheme is inspired by Robert Mulligan's SUMMER OF 42, which also inspired LA PASSAGERE, starring Cecile De France. Or if it was not inspired, it is a coincidence: a mature woman relationship between she and a teenage boy. Good, solid film, helped by a convincing Lea Drucker and her co stars too. Not only her. It is a sweet drama though, not a depressing or gloomy story. It seems very realistic and close to actual situations. It is riveting, tense. Catherine Breillat is not a beginner, and for such stories; she has always done and I suppose she will continue. I prefer this to silly, lame, cheesy comedies.
It's so sad that western propaganda is so uniform. I understand that colonialism is what it is...winners and losers, but the very suble and manipulative way these stories weave themselves into the psyche is so deserate and sad. Simply look at the description... "Follows Anne, a brilliant lawyer who lives with her husband Pierre and their daughters. Anne gradually engages in a passionate relationship with Theo, Pierre's son from a previous marriage, putting her career and family life in danger.". Where in this movie is Anne...a brilliant attorney? The Q/a session establishes she's an attorney, but the rest of the movie is about establishing she's a housewife seeking a little change of pace. Where is it written that in these productions that every family has to be the 'exception'...successful? The thing that brings these perfect families down is some strange act like this. It's goofy.
Ten years have passed since the brilliant writer/director Catherine Breillat graced us with a new project. So you can imagine my excitement when I heard Last Summer was gearing up for its physical media release. Even more interestingly, this movie is based on the Danish movie Queen of Hearts (OT: Dronningen) which I also adore.
I would like to leave any direct comparisons between the two movies aside, as I believe each movie should be able to exist based on its own merits.
My first impression of Last Summer is that the movie is beautifully shot. Breillat invites us to sidestep the norms of society for one summer without getting entangled in any legal or moral subtleties. Furthermore, her direction and clear understanding of emotion, tension, and sexuality help change the perception of this relationship drama from something rather crude to an exciting affair of forbidden desire.
Anne (Léa Drucker) and Théo (Samuel Kircher) absolutely sizzle as they become drawn to each other in the early stages and the evolution of their connection feels organic. The movie remains grounded, however, never crossing the line into outright melodrama or titillation. And in the end, I was left wanting to see more. Last Summer could have gone for three hours and I would have happily been on board. A strong recommendation, especially if you haven't yet seen Queen of Hearts.
