First time rewatching "Titane" after catching during its release in my local art-cinema. It's a movie of uncomprimising love among two strange characters. Adrien/Alexis, a serial killed hiding from the police at the firefighter Vincents home (They might be a currect pronoun). Adrien presents as male, the missing son of Vincent, while also being serial killer Alexis - whom has s** with a car in the films first act.

I'm astounded after this rewatch. It's showed me the uncomproming love, that I've been missing from my dad, whom I ceased all contact with this past december. This followed a year of psycholog-hours and processing all the trauma caused by him. He's never understood or showed interest in my passion for filmproduction, filmstudy or filmcollecting. He owns a collections of Vinyl and have previously watched some art films (Cronenbergs "the Fly" and some Luc Besson films).

One trauma he caused were during a restoration rerelease of Argentos "Suspiria" (1977). I had to "pull" him to the cinema - though much efforct on my part (As I'm neurodivergent, I nearly had a burnout). After we had seen the movie, which to me were mindblowing as it were the first time I head Goblins soundtracks and saw the lurid Technicolor of the film - a total blast. My dad didn't appreciate any of that, as he just didn't think the plot made sense. In other words, he didn't find anything appreciative of the movie.

That's why I enjoy Julia Ducournaus cinema. This movie shows love like I never experienced it. It even articulated my trauma though Alexias scars of hiding her identity as a serial killer on the run - an equal that I've had towards my dad (not the killing - more like the traume he caused me). That's why I love Ducournaus films so much, through her deeple layered themes, she articulates the many layers of love and truama, that some people have and the love they need. A masterpiece.

This movie just shouldn't exist, as my mother explained.

Compared to the several previous entries in the series, the writing feels poor and contains way too much exposition (of a somewhat convoluted plot). Simultaneouly, we're getting references to privious characteres in the series, played by the actors - as a poor mans Danish riff Cravens "New Nightmare." This attempt mostly fall flat, as the movies also has covers 18 years of untold fictional story.

Cravens movie puts Freddy Krueger into the reel world, as does this. The major difference being, that here it just doens't work at all, because Olsen-Banden (the Olsen-Gang) are very two dimentional characters that works mostly just for comedic purporses (and that works to varyind degrees of well in the many previous entries.)

To add insult to injury, this movie is also very confused about whether it wants to play the scens for laughter or serious. The lightning and editing doens't match the previous films. I found myself both missing the soundtracks and Ove Sprogøs voice-over during the heists. Needless to say, I didn't finish the film. (although I could do that later.)

This movie is confused mess - the likely cause: Two deathc plagued the production of a close-knit crew.
