Beautiful and captivating, I loved it!
Sensitive Elliot, who stays with his mother in their vacation home somewhere in France, develops a crush on local boy Clément, undertaking all kinds of awkward actions towards him, while street-wise and macho Clément alternately pushes Elliot away or opportunistically plays with his feelings. Things are complicated by Elliot’s mother who is in a bad relationship with the absent father and is breaking up the house because they are selling it; both facts weigh heavy on Elliot, who is caught between his mother’s personal troubles and his own thwarted feelings for Clément.What a wonderful and extra-ordinary movie this is! The story is very dense, full of emotions, with wonderful dialogues and metaphors, and the atmosphere in the more introspective scenes is poetic, almost magical. The photography is stunningly beautiful and the direction by Andrew Steggall (who’s also the writer) is so subtle and sensitive, I was absolutely captivated by it! There are so many memorable and meaningful scenes to mention, like the titillatingly sensuous one of Elliot and Clément on the lake, or the dreamlike scene under water at the climax of the movie, I could go on and on!
Phénix Brossard as love-object Clément doesn’t have much else to do but being appealing, while Juliet Stevenson gives a very fine performance as the self-absorbed mother who in the turmoils of her own troubles almost forgets her son. Alex Lawther as son Elliot however is the real crux of this movie, he is totally convincing as the vulnerable and over-sensitive teen who is torn between his hormones and loyalty to his mother. He shines in every scene, wether in his awkward and at times erotic encounters with Clément, in the skirmishes with his mother, or in the moments when he’s desolately alone. Here is a young and extremely talented actor to watch out for in the future: not so much for looks, but all the more for character, expression and charisma!
