It was one of the most awaited events of the Directors' Fortnight, during the last Cannes Festival. The return to France of Mia Hansen-Løve, after her English escapade with Bergman Island. For Un Beau Matin, the filmmaker has brought together Léa Seydoux and Melvil Poupaud in a bitter love story. This film was one of our favorites of the festival, and even of the year. It will be released on October 5, 2022.
Winner of the Label Europea Cinema award, this is undoubtedly the most beautiful film of Mia Hansen-Løve(Eden, L'Avenir, Maya). The filmmaker seems to improve from film to film and each of her works is better than the last. This time, she focuses on the life of Sarah, a young single mother played by Léa Seydoux, who juggles her work, her daughter, her sick father and Clément (Melvil Poupaud), an old and long lost friend who becomes her lover.
The filmmaker is reminiscent ofEric Rohmer 's gentler films in evoking this nerdy couple with their passionate conversations. Above all, it is the secondary roles that give the film a special flavor. Pascal Greggory and Nicole Garcia in the lead, as Léa Seydoux's parents. A Beautiful Morning is crossed by a beautiful tenderness, very pleasant to watch.
