RAVEL'S BIOPIC BOLERO
SEE THE DRAMATIC MOVIE TRAILER
Today I have for you a trailer for Anne Fontaine directed movie starring Raphael Personnaz, Vincent Perez and Jeanne Balibar in a biopic on
Maurice Ravel titled BOLERO. Doria Tillier, Emmanuelle Devos, Suzanne Clement and Sophie Guillemin also star. Netflix will stream the 1928 set film that
looks back at the origins of the Bolero, when it was nothing but a
simple command made by choreographer Ida Rubinstein to Maurice Ravel.
The latter obeys as if a kind of exercise. But as the composition
advances the work takes on a wholly unexpected dimension, reminding the
musician of his demons but also the wonders he has worked. The movie has launched in France and Belgium March 6th and will move into other European territories this spring. See the trailer below and tell us what you think:

I found the trailer a tad slow, so probably won’t add this to my queue. But it is nice to see more international options from Netflix other than all those stupid Korean programs they were pushing for awhile.
ReplyDeleteBolero is one of my all time fave classic pieces, so I will watch it to see how it was created. It is a true masterpiece of music.
DeleteThat sounds interesting.

DeleteI've played Bolero many times. Very long and repetitive, but if you follow the dynamics, it can be very effective. I hope this Netflix movie will have subtitles, because unfortunately, my French is not good enough to understand what's being said. :)
ReplyDeleteNetflix always has subs.
