Synopsis

Watch: Un conte de Noël 2008 123movies, Full Movie Online – The Vuillard family gathers: Junon and Abel, a daughter Elizabeth and her son Paul, Henri and a girlfriend, Ivan, his wife Sylvia and their young sons, and cousin Simon. Six years before, Elizabeth paid Henri’s debts and demanded he never see her again or visit their parents’ home. Paul, at 16, has mental problems and faces a clinical exam. Junon learns she needs a bone marrow transplant if she’s to live beyond a few months: thus the détente bringing all together. Two family members have compatible marrow, but the spats, fights, cruel words, drunken toasts, and somewhat civilized bad behavior threaten all; plus Junon may simply refuse treatment. Do we know ourselves?.
Plot: When their regal matriarch falls ill, the troubled Vuillard family come together for a hesitant Christmastime reunion. Among them is rebellious ne’er-do-well Henri and the uptight Elizabeth. Together under the same roof for the first time in many years, their intricate, long denied resentments and yearnings emerge again.

A jumbled mess of ennue
Started thinking about 20 minutes in, “when is it all going to come together with some semblance of cohesion and interest?” To me it never did, and was an overlong borefest throughout, with very short takes leading to other very short takes that never got my interest for any.

Never saw any family act the harsh way toward each other that this one did, or talk to each other so carelessly without more mayhem being caused by it than this one did, or showed less love and care for each family member than this one did, even with the mother dying!

Why was this kind of labored film supposed to be the right one to show at Christmas? Maybe Labor Day instead? I sure labored through it unwillingly, and it was sooooo long. And, I love French films! See Cache, For the Love of Others or Amelie instead for great French films, and not this piece of pretty junk.

No Compelling Reason to Spend Time with This Particular Family
An overly long and incredibly too talky dysfunctional family drama about a clan reuniting for one Christmas to see which if any family members will have bone marrow that’s compatible with that of the matriarch, played by a chilly Catherine Deneuve. She’s dying of a rare kind of cancer, and the spectre of that eventuality plus the proximity of brothers and sisters who haven’t seen each other for a while and have scores to settle puts everyone in a reflective mood. Unfortunately for us, they stay in that mood for nearly three hours, and they talk and talk and talk endlessly about it.

There’s far too much plot, some of it quite banal, some of it very interesting. The film is well executed and acted, but it’s also distant and cold. I never felt vested in anything that happened to these people, and I greeted the ending with the curiosity of one who has spent a lot of time with something and simply wants to finish it rather than with any real concern for what the ending would be.

“A Christmas Tale” falls into the trap of too many family dysfunction dramas: We all have our own families to deal with in real life, so if we’re going to spend 2-3 hours listening to the petty whining of someone else’s, it better damn well be worth our time.

Grade: B
