When I looked at the lineup of Canada's Top Ten presented at the Cinematheque I am not dwelled on the film The High Cost of Living . It was only Friday morning that I realized that he spent that evening and that this might be a good idea to go see it. I quickly decided: Zach Braff, Isabelle Blais, Montreal, and then ... A cocktail that tempted me well, even if the story would not be encouraging:
Natalie is pregnant, not far from birth. One evening, while she is home alone, her workaholic husband is still in session, she has contractions and, restless, decides to go to the hospital by taxi. She took to the streets waiting for the taxi, and was hit hard by a car whose driver fled. Natalie loses her baby, and calls into question his entire life. Henry, the man who hit her, a New Yorker who lives in Montreal between plans and shady sale of drugs, find, and without telling him who he is, it offers all the comfort it needs, everything that her husband can not give. They will get closer, but it will be impossible for Henry to ignore long drama that ushered in the life of Nathan.
The room was not very full, many people left after the presentation of imaginary love to 19h. So much the better, I love having the screen to me, without heads in front. The Cinematheque has nice seats offer the most uncomfortable movie imaginable, I was, I do not regret having spent two hours before the film wondering what was going to eat well, to finish by a horrible piece of pizza on Granville St.
The High Cost of Living is the first film by Deborah Chow, he also received an award at the prestigious Toronto Film Festival, TIFF. Sold in advance to both Isabelle Blais I like long, that Zach Braff has a decidedly little something irresistible, neither one nor the other disappointed me. The end of the movie either, but I do not reveal here, of course. And as always when I see a good movie, I left the room a little thing, head in the stars, a little out on the autopilot to go home. With the desire to return lock myself in a movie theater very quickly. Luckily, I go back tomorrow .
Incidentally, for my Quebec friends that this movie passes for Thursday, February 24 Rendezvous du Cinema Quebecois at 19:30 at the Cineplex Odeon Latin Quarter, in the presence of Isabella Blais. Damn lucky!
