LA BOULANGERIE | Omeleto Romance
Фильм және анимация
A French baker meets an English tourist.
LA BOULANGERIE is used with permission from Luke Jin. Learn more at lukejin.com.
In a quaint charming village in the French countryside called Castillonnes, the villagers mount a small offensive against the "tacky English tourists" that come to their picturesque town. The town baker even asks his daughter Claudia to bake the bread to be tough and inedible, hoping to deter the foreign visitors.
The tactic doesn't work, and soon the baker takes more drastic measures: he decides to contaminate his own bread in hopes of making the English tourists sick, and drive them from his business once and for all. Claudia has misgivings about essentially poisoning the tourists, but goes along with her domineering dad.
But he doesn't count on the handsome English man (and his delightfully impertinent niece) who comes into the shop one afternoon, catching the eye of Claudia and adding a spark of romance to her day. Summoning up the courage to defy her dad, she decides to stand up for her convictions, becoming an unlikely heroine in her own story.
Writer-director Luke Jin's sumptuous, well-crafted summer romance short adds a acerbic twist to the classic fantasy of the pastoral, pretty French countryside vacation and romantic dalliance.
The visual storytelling retains the pleasure of the fantasy, especially with its lush, warmly rich cinematography and graceful camerawork. It showcases a setting that transports viewers to a beautiful place during a gorgeous season, offering the vicarious pleasure of cinematic travel. Add in the romantic plot for a bit of summertime romance, and it promises the ultimate diversion.
But the sweetness and beauty is livened by the touches of dark, sharp-toothed comedy, with its light but piquant observations upon the age-old rivalry between French and English, and the determined provincialism of the village, who want to be left alone with their bread, fields, and charmingly old-fashioned town.
The comedy isn't broad, but the writing and performances have an understated astringency to them that adds shadow and dimension to the romance in both the visuals and the story. The tone balances between the sharp and sweet, but eventually still builds to a funny, awkward climax that both pokes fun at the clueless blithe consumption of the tourists and crescendoes into a romantic fantasy that warms the heart.
In many ways, LA BOULANGERIE hearkens back to a pre-Tarantino era of modern arthouse cinema, which offered visually resplendent, sweeping stories in often faraway or luxurious European settings. It retains an old-fashioned opulence and charm but mixes in a very modern sly humor, making for a film that is both divertingly entertaining, sweetly romantic and just a touch knowing without being ironic.

I'm British. Loved this. Made me laugh out loud. My sympathise are totally with the French Village. Loved the way they had alarms for when the GB sticker was spotted. We really can be arrogant nightmares when tourists. And it's true the French don't really like us. Very funny, very cute and from my point of view, he was punching way above his weight!!

Last time I was in a youth hostel in Czech Republic, there were two middle-aged British tourists that woke everyone in the room at 3AM, piss drunk and started harassing girls. They got kicked out. On the way out, they pissed all over the hostel from the room door all the way to the reception. Disgusting.

@@marshallgarnick4923 yes. But it's a love hate relation. In France they love the English tourists. Rich and retired they spend a lot of money. French shop keepers even speak English! They won't do that in Marseille! But on the other hand they hate them. Villagers stay in their French group. Only evangelistic churches are (sometimes!) really welcoming English people. In one church it was forbidden to speak English in the church building. (We are in France!) The other church is open to whatever language. Great... Good thing that Jesus loves all cultures and languages. He wants people of every culture and language to come to heaven... I'll go for that!

Great start...wanted more. Nice photography, casual feel as the story unfolds... curious did dad die, get sick, how did the connection go... end with almost kiss seemed rushed in story development... wanted more. Multi story potential and development of each was building and folding in on the other...just wanted more.... smile.
I loved that. Thanks!

lol be careful what you wish! Delightful twist ...
omg this is SO DRAMATIC although it could be because it was in french...

deep down the france england relationship is one of passion and affection and affection at one time they are friends, at another time they compete with each other as rivals, they continue to admire each other until they get along with each other and get married, the french deep down admire and love the english to the point of wanting to conquer them, maybe there between the stereotype of the arrogant Frenchman, as well as the stereotype of the English thief and gold digger. Deep down, they are 2 cultures that love and respect each other with their differences, they are neo-Latin cultures.
