Beautifully-Filmed masterpiece from a dramatic veteran

Robert LePage is, in my opinion, a film-making genius. "Le Confessionel" has some of the best photography I have ever seen on film. The plot, the characters, the pacing, and the editing all come together perfectly to make a compelling and visually stunning film. I know Mr. Lepage has done a lot of work in the theater, as well as acting in film (e.g. "Jesus of Montreal"). He is multi-talented and truly gifted.

Truly innovative film

Visually, this is one of the best films ever made. There are 3 elements, one in 1952 Quebec, one in 1989 Quebec and one actually from Alfred Hitchcocks "I Confess", of which this movie seems to be a realy loose remake of.

The way the film moves seamlessly between 1952 and 1989, and the odd dreamlike sequences that occur a couple of times, and the continous sequence of brilliant images is the best things of the film. The plot, however, does take a bit of a back seat,although the ending is excellent, and the Kristen Scott Thomas character is unneccesary.

Ambitious, intriguing, if not wholly successful

"Le Confessionnal" is nothing if not ambitious: playing out in 2 time zones about 40 years apart simultaneously, AND going to the extra trouble of recreating a faux "making-of" feature for Alfred Hitchcock's 1953 drama "I Confess", which was set and (partly) shot in Quebec. The film has an intriguing plot but loses momentum after a while and at times becomes exceedingly muddled, though it mostly clears up by the end. The best thing about it are the transitions between the present and the past, which are smooth and sometimes purely magical. The actor who plays Hitchcock bears an almost uncanny physical resemblance to the real man, the only thing he doesn't get quite right is the voice. **1/2 out of 4.

Wonderful story telling.

A complicated family past haunts two brothers in search of the truth. Via flashbacks we meet the family in turmoil, coincided with the making of Alfred Hitchcock's I CONFESS. With the creative use of past and present interweaved, we slowly find the truth that has been sitting under our noses at all times. Very clever and a very effective piece of cinema story telling.

I really wanted to like this film...

...but it was so confusing, so boring and without a real plot leading.

"I Confess" by Hitchcock is one of my favorite movies and it made me visit Québec City 4 times in my life.

I even stayed over night at the Château Frontenac Hotel (it was with $ 700 per night my most expensive hotel ever).

And I took the guided tour through this famous hotel twice, once in English and once in French.

So I would have expected to enjoy this film, but I didn't.

Actually I'm amazed it got 7 stars in the imdb.

My advice: rather watch "I Confess" with Montgomery Clift. That's true movie art. This one is chaos without a real story line.
