Avis à la une
Making wine and drama. Jean (Pio Marmaï) left his family home ten years ago. When father falls ill, he returns and reunites with his sister Juliette (Ana Girardot) and brother Jérémie (François Civil), to sort out stuff between them. Ah
families. Their problems and conflicts seem very important for themselves, but are often difficult to understand for bystanders. This is also true for writer-director Cédric Klapisch's latest, slow-burning but quite nice drama about the importance of family and the power of forgiving. The short summary feels sugary, and Klapisch does aim for feel-good, but the movie does not try to manipulate with audience in any tasteless way. It is actually realistic depiction of well-behaved and intelligent family's life, where everybody has their problems but these are not solved in overtly dramatic way often expected from family sagas. This subtle approach doesn't make for very engaging drama, but the feel-good factor is important part of the movie. If you care to invest yourself in these characters' lives, you will probably feel like a part of their group in their end. Which is the best thing this kind of movie can ask for. One can also learn quite a lot about making and appreciating wine. 113 minutes makes it rather long watch, it's not a standout work but quietly confident and satisfying. I don't like international and also Estonian title Back to Burgundy" (Tagasi Burgundiasse") which is not as eloquent as the original – directly translated What Links Us" (Mis meid seob"). But you would have to watch the movie to care about this, I guess.
It's a good movie. Simple story. Lighly touches the surface and still goes deep into your heart. No cliches.
No superpower. No fiction. Just simple human emotions. It includes some great ideas to compare the different generations, like when you see your young yourself and give him a hug. It brought back my younger years with my wife and childen. And the soundtracks are also really good. It starts slow. And it remains slow. Maybe this is why I like French movies.
Some people underestimate simple human emotions.
Then when they are in big emotional crisis, they aspire to it again and understand its importance in life. The French movies are good.

People who love wine will have a lot of reasons to like Cédric Klapisch' film 'Ce qui nou lie' (the English title is 'Back to Burgundy'). The landscape of Burgundy beautifully filmed during all the seasons of the year is the setting of a story whose heroes are people who not only make a living from wine, but wine is all they know and want to do, a tradition that they inherited for many generations, on properties that pass from grandfather to father to son and daughters. It's beautifully filmed, with a lot of technical and craft details, described with respect and dedication. I love wine, so I liked very much this facet of the film. Yet, 'Ce qui nou lie' is more than this.
Director Cédric Klapisch demonstrated in previous movies like (especially) L'auberge espagnole or Chinese Puzzle that he knows and likes to build family and relationship melodramas, with credible characters that he makes us care about. This is what he also tries to do here, but in this case he seems to gather too many intrigues that do not fit that well one with the other: we have an over-the-years brothers reunion, a father-son relation that keeps being strained over the years and even after the death of the father, a land inheritance under pressure because of the decisions of the late father and taxes and economic pressure, generation conflicts and kids at the other side of the planet, etc. Some of these are better described, other are solved by sudden and less credible script writing tricks, my overall feeling was that none was that much important and you end asking yourself what was more important - the stories or the beautiful background and the style of life of the characters.
Fortunately, the film is helped by splendid acting. The roles of the three siblings are trusted to three actors I know less or not at all, Pio Marmaï, Ana Girardot, and François Civil and all three do a fine job. A few of the camera moves are really memorable (the departing silhouettes of the three brothers right after a flashback that showed them hugging together with their mother many years before, the bed scene with the elder brother and his girlfriend separated and brought together at the same time by their 5 years kid). Overall it's a satisfying film, with charming moments, a little too long, but there are more reasons than the love of wine to go and see it.

Family reunification in the beautiful countryside of Borgogne, France, where the two brothers and the sister meed themselves in the old family house among the vaste vineyards. They have to deal with the past and plan the future, following the father's death. Not really a compelling plot, but a pleasant family comedy, where the passion for wine is celebrated with continous tastings. The settings are suggestive and the product is well-finished.
A film that is 30% too long, rather prosaic and lacking in close-ups or actors who could hold them, combined with a very ordinary script and ploddingly literal screenplay. Phew! So you guessed I was underwhelmed. And there were times I wondered if I was watching a coroporate video on how to make wine ( sorry, French wine), its clearly better than that made elsewhere in the world, as they were keen to impress on us. Then compare this 'made for TV' effort to some of the wonderfully poetic movies that have come out of France..... and you wonder why they bothered. I can think of better ways to spend $10m.
