See You Up There <\/em><\/strong>is set to be released in Australian cinemas this Thursday July 19. <\/strong><\/p>\n

The film, initially presented by the Alliance Fran\u00e7aise Film Festival in March and April this year, received impressive acclaim with a C\u00e9sar award for Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Production Design, Best Costume Design and Best Cinematography plus a host of other nominations. From this Thursday you\u2019ll be able to view the celebrated film in a selection of cinemas<\/a> across the country.<\/p>\n

For a taste, dive in to our critique of the film by Le Courrier Australien\u2019s Journalist Valentine Sabouraud:<\/p>\n

See You Up There<\/em>\u00a0: World War One in chiaroscuro <\/strong><\/p>\n

In the manic chaos of an infantry assault launched within of hours of the armistice, two soldiers form an unbreakable bond after saving each other\u2019s lives. One half of the duo, Albert, is a modest accountant while the other, Edouard, is a quirky yet tortured artist – the unloved son of a wealthy man. Together, the pair plots to survive by hatching a bold plan to take revenge on all those who loved and benefitted from the war. Their crafty scam hits a roadblock when a wily villain, clever orphan, and a maelstrom of unsettled traumas push the protagonists close to the edge.<\/p>\n

This adaptation of the eponymous novel by Pierre Lemaitre is presented with a gritty, bitter, yet tender, reading of the post-war period by Albert Dupontel. Above all, Dupontel succeeds in igniting the magic of cinema with a cast of enchanting actors swept up in the sweet madness of the period. The elaborate costumes are a visual delight, with C\u00e9cile Kretschmar\u2019s masks evoke dreamlike scenescapes that linger in the mind days after viewing.<\/p>\n

While See You Up There<\/em> may primarily concern itself with the war of 1914-18, it grapples more\u00a0intimately with the \u20187\u00e8me art\u2019, or cinema, within which no coincidence, excess, audacious act or display of love is beyond the realm of possibility. We\u2019re taken by the hand and taught the value of faith, fraternity, self-acceptance and forgiveness against the backdrop of unimaginable suffering \u2013 a beautiful lesson treated with delicacy and warmth.<\/p>\n

Please note that this critique is completely detached from the book of Lemaitre, and written by a film lover whose penchant for cinema may not sit well with those less fond of novel\/film adaptations.<\/em><\/p>\n
