Film Clubs Paris

Le Roi et l'Oiseau, film fantastique, Prévert & Grimault (1980)

Pour la première rencontre du cinéclub je vous propose de découvrir Le Roi et l'Oiseau (1980), un grand classique d'animation. Inspiré du conte de fées d'Ansersen La Bergère et le Ramoneur, ici, leur amour est contrarié par le roi Charles V et Trois Font Huit et Huit Font Seize, redouté de tous sauf de son oiseau moqueur. Il a marqué les fondateurs du Studio Ghibli Miyazaki et Takahata, Takahata en particulier avait déclaré qu'il ne serait pas lancé dans l'animation sans le choc que lui avait procuré ce film. Je vous propose de nous retrouver 10 minutes avant le début de la séance (donc 17h50 au Studio les Ursulines) et pour ceux qui le veulent de prendre un verre en sortant.

[CINÉ-DÉBAT] My Own Private Idaho (VOSF)

My Own Private Idaho, directed by Gus Van Sant, portrays a road-trip story exploring two young men using sex work and constant movement to survive emotionally. Mike longs for real connection and quietly loves Scott, while Scott treats life like a temporary performance he can eventually leave behind. The film contrasts genuine vulnerability with emotional detachment, showing how people search for identity, home, and intimacy when they feel invisible or disposable. 🗓️LUNDI 1 JUIN de 19H à 21H30 📍 58 rue Richer 75009 Paris 🔴 entrée = 1 boisson 🌐 visitez www.thedissidentclub.org pour plus d’informations
