Not only this short features Catherine Hessling,Auguste Renoir's favorite model and his son Jean favorite's actress from the silent age ,but it also recalls the movie the latter would make the following year "La Petite Marchande d'Allumettes" But whereas Renoir left out all that was Christian in Andersen's novel,Cavalcanti -the man who made two segments of the extraordinary "dead of night" including the "dummy " episode- had three people on the street play the role of the Greek chorus and sing Lili's praises."Her place is Heaven " then "She's gone to where she belongs" A silent short not to be mistaken for 'La Petite Lise" by Jean Gremillon,"La Petite Lili" is a realistic story albeit not devoid of poetry.

The description was radically misleading. The fell in love with who later became a director with family was *Julien* not Brice who was the "marriage of convenience" producing Lili's stardom. Allusions to a story about 'what didn't happen" was not supported by the making of Julien's film "The Disappearance". While the female lead was indeed a pretty girl, perhaps of the "Bardot" variety, that was about the only redeeming feature of this movie.
Fascinating film from Claude Miller, loosely based on Chekhov's play The Seagull. Solid performances, superb direction. Fans of French "Art House" cinema will no doubt enjoy this film. Ignore the 1 star reviews, when this film was released it enjoyed excellent reviews and won several awards on the festival circuit. It is an especially good choice for those interested in filmmaking, acting and literary adaptations. Viewers interested in fast paced stories with endings neatly wrapped up in a bow Hollywood style, might need to watch this film with an open mind, but you'll be rewarded in he end as this is one of Miller's most optimistic, poetic films.
Pretty weak movie. Can't believe I watched it.

{Nominated Palme d'Or, Claude Miller-- Cannes Film Festival 2003} {Winner! Silver Hugo Best Female Performance, Ludivine Sagnier-- Chicago Int'l Film Festival 2003} {Winner! Best Supporting Actress, and Most Promising Actress, Julie Depardieu-- César Awards, France 2004} Ludivine Sagnier stars as Lili, the love and muse of an idealistic young filmmaker in this modern adaptation of Chekov's classic play The Seagull. The story revolves around Mado, a movie-star past her prime who owns an elegant chateau in the serene French countryside. Mado's lover Brice is a successful director who continues to cast Mado in his films. Her son Julien, an aspiring filmmaker, despises his "sell-out" mother, but at the same time yearns for her approval. Lili, Julien's girlfriend, is intent on escaping the lowly life of a poor country girl and dreams of stardom. When Julien screens his new DV art-film starring Lili, the delicate peace in their house begins to unravel. An excellent ensemble cast of actors including Ludivine Sagnier (Swimming Pool), the striking young actor Robinson Stévenin, the up and coming Julie Depardieu (Les Destineés), Nicole Garcia (Alias Betty), Jean-Pierre Marielle (Tous les Matins du Monde) and Bernard Giraudeau (Ridicule).
Inspired by The Seagull , Claude Miller's La Petite Lili takes place in present day Brittany. While Chekhovs play was set in a theatrical milieu, longtime Truffaut associate Miller ( Alias Betty ) sets his film in a cinematic one (a là Day For Night ). The title character is an aspiring actress (Ludivine Sagnier, Swimming Pool ), who is seeing experimental filmmaker Julien (Robertson Stévenin). She would prefer to be working with an established commercial director like Brice (Bernard Giraudeau, Ridicule ), who is involved with his leading lady--Julien's mother, Mado (Nicole Garcia). By the conclusion, Lili will have achieved her goal, but at what cost? Well, unlike The Seagull , La Petite Lili isn't a tragedy, so no one character will make out too badly. And as in François Ozon's Water Drops on Burning Rocks , itself based on a play (by Rainer Werner Fassbinder), Sagnier and Giraudeau make for a strangely compelling screen couple. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Luckiest Girl Alive

There is nothing the equal of a summer cottage to assemble all the characters needed for a drama, and nobody else. There are spare bedrooms and secluded groves for adultery, and long tables on the shady lawn for boozy lunches at which truth is told. European films get enormous mileage out of the device; Hollywood is more likely to send the parents off with their kids to Wally World or the Johnson family reunion, which is why this adaptation of Chekhov's "The Seagull" would play strangely in a station wagon.
The play, you will recall, if you received a liberal education and didn't major in ways to make money, involves a family gathering that includes an aging diva, a famous writer, the diva's idealistic son and a young actress. The son falls in love with the actress, who knows which side of her bread she wants buttered, and goes after the writer, who is the lover of the diva. Minor characters have minor dalliances, and the point of the play is to show how all of these passions are transmuted into art.
Claude Miller , a French director of dry humor and great skill, has taken the Chekhov outline and updated it to present-day France, substituting the cinema for literature. His film stars the elegant Nicole Garcia as Mado Marceaux, as a movie star acutely aware of her age and determined to retain possession of her lover, the successful director Brice ( Bernard Giraudeau ). Her son Julien ( Robinson Stevenin ) is one of those intolerable young men who guards the candle of integrity on the birthday cake of materialism. As the movie opens, Julien and Lili ( Ludivine Sagnier ), an ambitious young actress, are found making love, but Julien is like the young filmmaker in " Last Tango in Paris ," and sees his life as a movie and his lover as a character in need of direction.
Filling out the cast are old Uncle Simon (Jean-Pierre Marielle), who likes to nap in the sun and pose as a cynic, the handyman Guy ( Marc Betton ), his wife Leone ( Anne Le Ny ) and their daughter Jean-Marie ( Julie Depardieu ), who is genuinely in love with Julien and believes he is a genius.
Whether he is or not becomes clear one day when Julien announces the world premiere of his new experimental film. All of the guests troop out to the barn for a viewing, especially the famous director Brice; Julien despises him, his work, and everything he stands for, but desires his praise and support. The film, which stars Lili, is awful. Everybody knows it, but finds ways to praise it (Gene Siskel's response in such a situation: "Thank you for making a film"). Lili doesn't find her future in Julien's avant-garde and goes after Brice: "I could make you happy again." This is true only if it would give him joy to make her a star. Mado is crushed to lose to her younger rival. Jean-Marie stands by alertly to pick up Julien's pieces.
Flash forward five years, and Julien is making a film on a set built to look like the location of their summer of passion. Some of the actors are playing themselves; others have been cast by famous lookalikes (the beloved Michel Piccoli among them). It is ironic that art has been transmuted into life, but more ironic that Julien has been transmuted into Brice, and now works on a sound stage with a full crew and a big budget. "Why did you make your movie for $24,000?" I heard an indie filmmaker once asked at Sundance. "So I will never have to again."
The third act departs from Chekhov and is original with Miller; it not only makes a nicely ironic point, but, because he takes his time with it, allows for a meditation on the distance between art and life. We see that even the actors playing "themselves" are not playing the selves we have seen, but new selves invented by Julien. The character who best understand this, and actually forgives it, is the older director Brice.
And did Brice find happiness with young Lili? Almost on the very day he became her lover, he knew he would "fall into a well of loneliness." It has been said that the reason we establish relationships is to assure ourselves of a witness to our lives. Happy relationships have two witnesses, but Brice's has only one.

Things to do in Chicago for Friday 10/14/2022

Claude Miller’s wan, bittersweet look at an extended family of bickering actors and directors is not without its charms. Miller and coscreenwriter Julien Boivent have a gift for aphoristic, if glib, dialogue, and Nicole Garcia and Ludivine Sagnier do their best to flesh out hopelessly one-dimensional characters. But it remains a decidedly halfhearted attempt to rework the romantic entanglements of The Seagull , with Chekhov’s surly young playwright mechanically transformed into a cocky filmmaker (Robinson Stevenin) and his nubile girlfriend predictably dumping him for his mother’s lover. In French with subtitles. 100 min.
